How should one encourage someone to perform salaah?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My question is for my dear brother. I would really appreciate if you could help me in this. My brother does not like to offer prayers at all. He has missed lots of jummah salaahs as well. Most of the time intentionally and few times because of some work… He is married Alhamdulillah. I’ve tried and put much effort to drag his attention towards deen or to atleast pray the 5 times prayer. I am really concerned about him. We lost our father when we were toddlers, so there is no one to guide him properly nor is he willing to go to the masjid. He helps people who are in need but when it comes to namaz (prayer) he has got loads of excuses to escape… Please pour in some suggestions or duas that can help us in putting his mind into namaz and fear of Allah.

Bismillaah

A: Start off ta`leem at home.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
