Does Allah Need Our Salah?<\/span><\/h1>\n

When you say you can’t pray, but Allah says yes, you can. So what?<\/span><\/p>\n

Why must I pray if Allah does not need my prayer? Why such a burden and obligation? What for?<\/span><\/p>\n

With that loaded schedule and hectic pace of life you (think) you don\u2019t have the time to pray five times a day. Do you really believe that? Do we really have excuses to not pray?<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, does Allah really care if I pray or not? Put it differently, does Allah need my prayer<\/a>? Why I\u2019m obliged to pray to Allah? What would it add to Him (Exalted is He) or to His kingdom?<\/span><\/p>\n

But while we might raise all these questions we know that\u2019s not the case- it\u2019s not about God<\/a>; it\u2019s about us.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then the question should be altered to: Why do we, humans, need to pray?<\/span><\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t feel that it\u2019s a need in your life that you can\u2019t manage without, then there\u2019s a problem with you faith.<\/span><\/p>\n

The fact is illustrated here by Nouman Ali khan answering a questioner, tackling all such striking inquiries\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n
