All praise is due to Allah, who has blessed you with the grace of repentance and the perseverance in establishing prayer after you were among the heedless. The conditions of repentance must be fulfilled, and faith must be preserved, by adhering to righteous companionship and by being gentle with your parents and convincing them of the importance of this companionship. You must also advise your father and siblings to establish prayer.
