This isn’t about Fiqh of Salah, but then again it is. Sometimes we may focus so much on the physical movements and actions of Salah that we may overlook another equally important aspect of prayer, niyyah, or intention. Check out this quote I read from Sayings of the Salaf: ‘Abdullâh b. Mubârak said: I asked Sufyân Al-Thawrî, “When a man stands to pray, what should he intend by his recitation and prayer?” He replied, “He should intend that he is personally entreating his Lord.” Muhammad b. Nasr Al-Marwazî, Ta’dhîm Qadr Al-Salâh Vol. 1 p199. [...] [...] The Correct Way To Pray According To The Salaf Nice attention getting title, huh? This isn’t about Fiqh of Salah, but then again it is.

For real, though, as Muslims we need to sort of chiggidy check ourselves and our focus on the external (fist-length beard, pants above ankles, turbans, miswak in mouth) and make sure that it's at least equal to our focus on internal. There's nothing wrong with making sure your appearance is according to the Sunnah and all, but the heart is what Allah is going to look at, specifically Salah first insha Allah. So we gotta make sure both are sound :-). Good reminder Saqib, jazak Allahu khayr. ARM Allah used you as a tool to remind me to focus on khushoo’ more ;-) hehe.
