And seek help through patience and prayer, and indeed, it is difficult except for the humbly submissive.

A man came to the Prophet (saw) and said: O Messenger of Allah, teach me but make it concise. He said: When you stand to pray, pray like a man bidding farewell. Do not say anything for which you will have to apologize. And give up hope for what other people have. Narrated by Abu Ayyub al-Ansari

The Prophet (saw) said, If you say to your companions: 'Be quiet' on a friday while the Imam is delivering the sermon, you have engaged in Laghw (idle talk or behaviour).

Certainly will the believers have succeeded. They who are during their prayer humbly submissive. And they who turn away from ill speech.

The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: Let the one who has most knowledge of the Book of Allah lead the people in prayer. If they are equal in terms of knowledge of the Quran, let the one who emigrated first (lead them). If they are equal in terms of emigration, let the one who has more knowledge of the Sunnah (lead them). If they are equal in terms of knowledge of the Sunnah, let the one who is oldest (lead them).
