How do you pray?
I’m a mum to a 4 year old and a 3 year old. I have not read my prays for a month or two. Yesterday I decided to pray and both my children fight, break things, drop juices etc as I’m praying and I find it super hard to concentrate my prayer. I find praying a massive task with my children. They don’t sit still and I don’t have anyone to look after them whilst I pray

Praying when you have small children is really hard. I usually give my son something to do or something to eat so occupy him long enough to let me pray.
Before you pray, let them know that it’s prayer time or even pray together with them. You can get a prayer mat for them. You can also keep them occupied with colouring books, toys etc. And while praying, you can recite short surahs. Lastly, make lots of du’a for them. May Allah make it easy for you.
