Summary
This answer offers brief advice to someone who feels burdened by sin, urging self-improvement through daily acts of worship. It recommends praying the five daily prayers at the start of their time, adding voluntary prayers, reciting the Quran daily, increasing remembrance of Allah and seeking forgiveness, and performing tahajjud even if only two rakaat. It also stresses good relations with others: keeping family ties, honouring parents, caring for family, helping those in need, giving charity even if small, speaking kindly, accepting Allah's decree and being grateful.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Lakukan solat lima waktu pada awal waktu. Tambahkan dengan solat-solat sunat.
