Worship should be performed with planning and consideration of the Quran. Every moment of life is an opportunity for worship.
Worship in Islam is one of the most vital duties and obligations of Muslims. The Holy Quran emphasizes the importance of worship in several verses and how to properly dedicate time to it. For instance, in Surah Adh-Dhariyat, verse 56, it states: 'And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me,' which clearly points out that the purpose of human creation is to worship God. To be effectively present in worship, we should manage our time wisely. The first step is to read the Quran and understand its meanings and messages. Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2, highlights this by stating: 'This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah.' This shows that the Quran is the best guide for worship and life. Additionally, it is recommended to engage not only in obligatory acts like prayer and fasting but also in voluntary acts such as remembrance, supplication, and recitation of the Quran. In Surah Al-Isra, verse 79, Allah states: 'And in the night, pray with it as additional (worship) for you; perhaps your Lord will raise you to a praiseworthy station,' emphasizing nighttime worship and Tahajjud prayers. Proper timing of worship allows us to perform it with more tranquility and achieve better results. Remember that every moment of life is an opportunity for worship, so strive to keep the remembrance of Allah alive in all circumstances.
And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.
This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah.
And in the night, pray with it as additional (worship) for you; perhaps your Lord will raise you to a praiseworthy station.
Once upon a time, a man sat by the sea, deep in thought about how he could better utilize his time for more worship. At that moment, someone approached him and said, 'Why don't you stay awake at night and pray?' The man replied, 'I always think about how I can use every moment for connecting with God.' The person encouraged him to become more familiar with the recitation of the Quran and remembrance of Allah. From that day on, the man tried to dedicate more time each night to worship and felt a greater sense of peace and closeness to God.
