Here are somethings that have inspired me to pray:
Salaat will be the first thing for which we will be reckoned on the day of judgement. We should therefore try to make the best salaat possible with concentration and devotion. Think about this...do you really want to be raised before Allah, be questioned about your salaat and have nothing to show for it?
Remember that any problem you have can only be resolved by Allah. Noone else can remove them unless Allah decides. Also remember that Allah does not owe anything to anyone who knowingly neglects their salaat. If Allah doesn't help us, then noone else can. If Allah helps us, then noone else can.
Whenever any prophet had any difficulty, they would resort to salat. Allah Himself says to seek His help with patience and salaat. Therefore, make an effort on your salaat. Try to make salaat as if you see Allah. If you cannot do it like that, then make your salaat knowing that He sees you. This is your way to talk to Allah. Make salaat and ask Him for all your needs.
Remember, everything we have is from Allah. Think of what lengths we would be ready to go for somebody who would a small favor for us in this world. If they asked us for a small favor in return, could we even think of saying no to them? So how devoted should we be to the One who gives us each and everything that we have and we are benefitting from His bounties each and every moment?
May Allah give me first, and all of us the tawfeeq to fulfill our duties toward Him to the best of our abilities and may He accept our deeds and forgive the shortcomings therein. Ameen.
