Recite with heart and soul.

"Sufficient for me is Allah; there is no deity except Him. On Him I have relied, and He is the Lord of the Great Throne." [see 9:129]

Always Be Thankful to ALLAH

When Allah has chosen you to be guided, this wasn’t because you were special. This is plain mercy from Allah which can be taken away any moment from you. Therefore, don’t think too high of your good deeds and never look down at those who were less fortunate and not guided. Remember that you were once one of them so praise Allah who guided you and ask Him to keep you steadfast. - Assim AlHakeem [not a hadith]

Another common mistake some Muslims make While offering Salah/Namaz

Another common mistake some Muslims make while they're engaged in prayer is that they don't properly cover their awrah. For example, some men wear small sized shirts and while it may cover them while they're standing, their lower back becomes exposed when they go down into sajda/prostration, potentially exposing their awrah and potentially invalidating their prayer. So let's make an effort to properly cover ourselves when we engage in the salaah/namaz, in'sha'Allah! [not a hadith]

Things once should avoid while offering Salah/Namaz/Prayers

Continuing our theme, another common mistake some people make when they pray salah/namaz is that when they are in sajda/prostration, they lift their toes up off the ground. However, we are required to keep our toes touching the ground as we have been ordered to prostrate upon seven limbs and the toes are counted as 2 of them! Furthermore, it's recommend to try to point your toes towards the qiblah while in sajda too! [not a hadith]
