I used to pray properly then I dont know what happened, I stopped praying the Sunnah and Nafl, then after that I started praying the Fardh really quickly,I dont pray with full concentration, I find it hard having a bond with Allah...I find it tough reciting the Quran What to do? Where do I start?

wswrwb -

jazakallah for replying to my other thread.

anyway, i have read and heard lectures about the topic you are asking about, from what i remember:

spend time in masjid, spend time with ulema and righteous people, spend time reading quran, all these things will increase iman insha Allah. Also i dont know what part of world you are in but if you can tell us maybe i can help more...there are good Islamic activities going on in many parts of the world...you might need to change the company you are hanging around or sometimes you have to change the environment you are in if you feel it is impacting negatively on you...

from what i remember Islamic knowledge itself increases iman, so if you have books read them, otherwsie buy them on internet, whatever you are interested in...
