Answer 1:

-it is a very important dua
He taught Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq (may Allaah be pleased with him) to say, “Allaahumma innee zalamtu nafsi zulman katheeran, wa la yaghfir al-dhunooba illa anta, faghfir li maghfiratan min ‘indaka warhamni innaka anta al-Ghafoor al-Raheem (O Allaah, I have wronged myself very much, and no one can forgive sin but You. Grant me forgiveness from You and have mercy on me, for You are the All-Forgiving, Most Merciful)”
-these duas are supposed to be recited in Arabic
-do
your best to learn the dua in Arabic

DOESN’T SATAN COME AND KEEP DISTRACTING YOU IN THE SALAH? MAKE YOU WONDER ABOUT YOUR JOB, LIFE, ETC HOW DO YOU REMAIN CONCENTRATED?
ANSWER_2:
-There
is no such thing as a perfect salah, you are human
-you
should empty your heart
-only
think of Allah

QUESTION 3:
IF A BROTHER WANTS TO HAVE KHUSU IN SALAH AND IF THE LINES ARE STRAIGHT, DO WE HAVE TO HAVE THE FEETS TOUCHING EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NO GAPS?
ANSWER_3:
Feet touching is Hanbali and shoulder is Hanafi
It
was narrated that al-Nu’maan ibn Basheer said:
“The Messenger of Allaah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) turned to face the people and said, ‘Straighten your rows,’ three times, ‘for by Allaah either you straighten your rows or Allaah will create division among your hearts.’ And I saw men standing shoulder to shoulder, knee to knee, ankle to ankle.” [Narrated by Abu Dawood, 662; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood, 616.]
-you should at least start with feet together
-hanafi says it is the shoulders and not the feet
-the hadith says ankle to ankle
