5. Say Salaam Alaikum to fellow Muslims when out and about
6. Say Bismillah before starting things
7. Pray a two Rakat Salah when you need help
8. Do wudhoo
9. Do wudhoo when you’re getting angry
10. Say Innallaha Ma’as Saabireen when you’re low on patience
11. Cut your nails on a Friday
12. Go to mosque with a smile
13. Head to do ghusl on a Friday
14. Recite Quran out loud
15. Recite Azaan and Iqamah before Salah
