Lets try to challenge ourselves to understand the meaning and consequences of our actions.The Holy Quran and traditions consider pondering as characteristic of piety.
الَّذِينَ يَذْكُرُونَ اللَّـهَ قِيَامًا وَقُعُودًا وَعَلَىٰ جُنُوبِهِمْ وَيَتَفَكَّرُونَ فِي خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ رَبَّنَا مَا خَلَقْتَ هَـٰذَا بَاطِلًا سُبْحَانَكَ فَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ ١٩١
سورة آل عمران
“Those who remember Allah when standing, sitting, and on their sides, and contemplate upon the creation of the heavens and the earth (saying:) ‘Lord, You have not created these in falsehood. Praise to You! Guard us against the punishment of the Fire ” Surah Al-I-Imran verses 191.
Therefore Islam highly recommend attention to quality of your performance.
Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) has said:
“Contemplating in two simple units of prayers, is better than just praying all night.”
