Pray every Friday. Never miss a Friday prayer and try to pray at the masjid as much as possible. Make sure you reach the mosque, not in time for the prayer, but before the khutbah (sermon) starts. This is virtuous according to a narration of the the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). [1] X Research source

In Chapter 24 of the Qur’an, Allah command men and women to lower their gaze and guard their private parts. [29] X Research source “Tell the believing men to restrain their looks, and to guard their privates. " You must also learn about the limits of acceptable interaction between men and women. You should not be alone or private with a non-mahram woman (unrelated woman). Keep in mind what “lowering your gaze” actually means. It means lowering your gaze from unlawful things, should you see one. It does not mean totally avoiding women and, if they speak to, ignore or refuse to look at them. This is an irrational way to behave; this verse speaks about modesty. When speaking to women, you should behave modestly and within your limits - do not attempt to flirt with them.
