Abandoning Salah Sets Ground for Moving toward Vices

TEHRAN (IQNA) – Getting away from Salah causes one to fall into the trap of worldly desires and sets the stage for corruption and vices.

The Quran says: “They were succeeded by a generation who neglected their prayers and followed their worldly desires.” (verse 59 of Surah Maryam)

This verse notes that by neglecting Salah, one is very likely to fall into the trap of worldly desires.

It is because Salah is the rope that connects us with God. As soon as it is broken, falling into the path that leads to destruction is all but certain.
