Do you ever read or hear about the Sahabah (RA) and feel a little disheartened? It’s normal to think that they were so great that we will never reach their standards. While this may be partly true, we must never stop trying.

The Arabs have a saying that “the first of the heavy rain is just a drop.” Start off little by little, build up your worship. But this takes discipline.

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan advises that we should start by sleeping early and rising early for fajr and he has a special message for the brothers. The feeling you get after having prayed fajr in the masjid is like no other.

Start small, build up and watch your faith grow.
