The problem in our ummah is that muslims set wrong priorities. We pay more attention to visible rituals and neglect the real purpose of islam. It's the most important, it's Al-Akhlaq (manners, character). When we visit the masjid, pray, fast and more, these are rituals. But what is with your ego, your nafs, what we should control also?
Many of us have tongues like knives, are notorious, are not on time, lie without shame, abuse the trust ( amanah), judge above others without any right, can't control their sexual instincts, jealousy, greed, anger, are racist, are not merciful to each other and intolerant.
The rituals are coherent with your Al-Akhlaq (manners). We should start to overthink about our nafs. Surely nobody is perfect and or without of flaws, but we should strive for knowledge for being a better human in future. In Shaa ALLAHU....
Truth is we have lost touch with the essence of religion and even the worship we do, we do it automatically, like robots, without really appreciating it's essence. The only thing we can do is try to correct ourselves first, then ee can educate those around us. May Allah guide us all
