Lack of concentration in salaah
Question: What are some of the remedies for lack of concentration during salaah time?
Answer: One should try his best to think about the actions he is in and the things he is saying in salaah. Whenever he finds his attention straying, he should try to immediately bring to his mind that he is standing before Allah, who is looking at him and also sees his heart and mind. In order to develop concentration in salaah, many scholars have written that one should try to perform long rakaats of optional salaah on a continuous basis. This, Insha Allah will help to keep the mind focused in salaah.
And Allah knows best.
