Doing Ibadah out of love & fear of Allah swt

Assalaamu 'Alaykum dearest sisters!

Ibadah is something which we should do out of love and fear of Allah swt and not as a burden we need to carry out on a daily basis. As Muslims our continuous ibadah and sincere intentions is what distinguishes us from others, and preserving this identity of a true Muslim should be our goal insha'Allah. Just as a reminder, the following ahadiths point out the adkar of ibadah (salaat, dhkir...).

~Abu Musa al-Ash’ari (may Allah be Pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “The likeness of the one who remembers his Lord and the one who doesn’t is like that of the living and the dead,” and this is al-Bukhari’s version. Muslim’s wording is: “The likeness of the house in which Allah is remembered and that in which He is not remembered is like that of the living and the dead.” Sahih Muslim’ (779)

~And Abu Hurayrah narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “When any one of you goes to sleep, Satan ties three knots at the back of his neck, sealing each knot by saying: ‘You have a long night. So, sleep.’ So, if one wakes up and mentions Allah, a knot is loosened. If he performs ablution, two knots are loosened. And if he prays, all the knots will be loosened, and in the morning he will be active and in a good mood. Otherwise, he will be in a bad mood and sluggish in the morning.” al-Bukhari (1142) and Muslim (776)

~And ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be Pleased with him) narrated that mention was made of a man who slept the whole night till morning. So, the Prophet (peace be upon him) remarked: “That is a man in whose ears Satan has urinated.” al-Bukhari (3270) and Muslim (774)
