Question:
My friend was born to a Sikh father and Christian mother. He was raised completely non-religious and non-spiritual. At the age of 1_ he went through a really horrible car accident with 3 friends. The car flipped over 3 times but miraculously no one was seriously injured. Since then he has become spiritual, but non-religious. He’s [private] now and becoming more and more interested in spirituality. I am trying to get him to explore Islam. He believes in only 1 God, but he has a hard time accepting a religion. He sees it as more of a constraint. Can you give me any prayer or something I can give him to practice? He is willing to give it a try. He believes in the sincerity of Muhammad and the true peaceful message of Islam but he is apprehensive about making life changing decisions related to religion.
Answer:
Let him wash his face, sit and meditate on God for 5 minutes anytime before sunrise each night, and conclude it with one prostration.
