How can a person regain their religious commitment and activity after being preoccupied with work and a change in their lifestyle, which led to a decline in worship and the emergence of sins they did not previously have?

The path to repentance, uprightness, and steadfastness in religion is to seek Allah's help and turn to Him, to act according to the dictates of His Book, and to follow the guidance of His Messenger, peace be upon him, as well as to associate with good people and shun evil companions. You must hasten to repent, and if distancing yourself from the company is a means to achieve that, then do not hesitate. Return to enjoining good and forbidding evil, reciting the Quran, praying in congregation, performing remembrance (dhikr) and supererogatory acts of worship (nawafil), and lowering your gaze. A person's religion is their most valuable asset, and the answer you received from your partners is incorrect and a step from the steps of Satan.
