  • How to Perform the Eid Prayer
    How to Perform the Eid Prayer The Eid prayer has two raka'at performed in the normal way, with the only addition of six Takbirs, three of them in the beginning of the first raka'ah, and three of them just before ruku' in the second raka'ah. The detailed way of performing the Eid prayer is as follows: The Imam will begin the prayer without Adhan or iqamah. He will begin the prayer by reciting Takbir of Tahrimah (Allahu Akbar). You should raise your hands up to the ears, and after reciting the Takbir, you should set your hands on your navel. The Imam will give a little pause during which you should recite Thana' (Subhanakallahumma .:.). After the completion of Thana', the Imam will recite Takbir (Allahu Akbar) three times. At the first two calls of Takbir you should raise your hands up to the ears, and after reciting Takbir (Allahu Akbar) in a low voice, should bring your hands down and leave them earthwards. But, after the third Takbir, you should set them on your navel as you do in the normal prayers. After these three Takbirs, the Imam will recite the Holy Qur'an, which you should listen calmly and quietly. The rest of the raka'ah will be performed in the normal way. After rising for the second raka'ah, the Imam will begin the recitations from the Holy Qur'an during which you should remain calm and quiet. When the Imam finishes his recitation, he will recite three Takbirs once again, but this time it will be just before bowing down for ruku'.

  • Extra Takbeer During Eid Prayer from the Sunnah for Those Who Care by Abu-Abu-Hurayrah 10 of Dhul Hijjah, Three Hours After Midnight, 1440H
    Extra Takbeer During Eid Prayer From the Sunnah for those who care By Abu-Abu-Hurayrah 10 of Dhul Hijjah, three hours after Midnight, 1440H This is a small effort to enlighten the heart, broaden the knowledge regarding the extra takbir done during the Eid prayer. When we examine the sunnah from the books of the hadith, we see the Prophet (Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) used to make takbeer during Eid in two different ways. Both of these ways are recorded with authentic chains of narration. The two ways are as follows: a) First Way: In the first rakat, 7 extra takbeer before the recitation. In the second rakat, 5 extra takbeer before recitation. [These takbeerat does not include the normal takbeerat of the prayer] b) Second way: In the first rakat, 3 extra takbeer before the recitation. In the second rakat, 3 extra takbeer after recitation. [These takbeerat does not include the normal takbeerat of the prayer] Now, let’s look at the evidence. I would like to mention here that when counting the numbers, the numbers are sometimes not including the normal takbeers of the prayer (all the evidences of the first way) and sometimes are including the normal takbeers of the prayer (all the evidences of the second way). Evidences for the First way (1st rakat 7 takbeer before recitation, 2nd rakat 5 takbeer before recitation): 1) Hadith of Abdullaah Ibn ‘Amr َ ﱠ ُ ﱠ َ ْ ُ ﱠأن رﺳﻮل اﷲِ ﺻﻠﻰ اﷲ ﻋﻠﯿﻪ وﺳﻠَﻢ َﻛﺒﱠ َﺮ ﻓﻲ َاﻟﻌﯿﺪ ِﯾﻦ -اﻷ ْﺿﺤﻰ ِواﻟﻔ ِﻄﺮ- ﺛِﻨﺘَ ْﻲ َﻋﺸ َﺮة ﺗَ ًﻜﺒﯿﺮة ﻓﻲ اﻷوﻟﻰ َﺳ ًﺒﻌﺎ، وﻓﻲ ِاﻷﺧﯿﺮة َﺧ ًﻤﺴﺎ، ِﺳﻮى ﺗَ ِﻜﺒﯿﺮة ﱠاﻟﺼﻼ ِة The Messenger of Allaah Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam made 12 takbeerat in the two Eids - Eid Al-Fitr and Eid Al-Adha, seven in the first, and five in the second other than (i.e.

  • Physiotherapy and Prayer (Salah) Information Leaflet for Muslim Patients
    Taking care of your health Physiotherapy and Prayer (Salah) Information leaflet for Muslim Patients “Pray unto me and I will hear your prayer” (Holy Qur’an 40:60) Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust As well as the spiritual benefits of prayer (Salah) it has been widely recognised that the process of praying promotes many physical and psychological benefits. Each position involves the movement of different parts of the human body in ways that encourage health and wellbeing. Islam and Physiotherapy It is a religious obligation to take care of our health. Our bodies and minds are in trust from Allah (God) and this means responsibilities for each of us ourselves. After faith, health and wellbeing are understood to be the greatest blessings to have been given to people and as such they are accountable to Allah. Physiotherapy aims to improve people’s daily life through rehabilitation. Physical rehabilitation involves doing a regular, gentle stretch and strengthen movement programme. This is very important and helps to decrease the stiffness in joints and muscles. It also increases the strength of the muscles, in order to improve physical fitness. This is necessary to be able to return to activities such as, cooking, housework, prayers (Salah) and work. What if I can’t pray in these positions due to my pain? Islam allows flexibility in the positions of prayer during illness. As Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) said, “Pray while standing and if you can’t, pray while sitting and if you cannot do even that, then pray lying on your side”.

  • Essential Rulings of the Hanafi School Abu Hanzala Ridawi (Released By
    ﷺ Essential rulings of the Hanafi school Abu Hanzala Ridawi (Released by www.aqdas.co.uk) The following are all Fard acts and leaving them will invalidate that action 1. Muqtadis must say takbir tahrimah even behind the imam loud enough to hear themselves. 2. For men, no part between immediately below the navel and up to and including the knees must become uncovered at any time during salah. Those wearing t-shirts must be careful in sajdah, etc. 3. The forehead and nose must be pressed against the ground during sajdah. If they're only touching but not pressed, sajdah, and therefore salah, is invalid. 4. Reciting Qur’an loudly. Reciting so quietly that you can’t hear yourself doesn’t count as recitation. Therefore, salah is invalid. 5. Muqtadis must say the four takbirs of janazah prayer loud enough to hear themselves. 6. Pronouncing every letter correctly. Mispronouncing any letter of the Qur'an such that it alters the meaning invalidates salah. It is obligatory to differentiate between: ص س ث ظ ز ذ ط ت ض د ه ح غ خ ء ع Learn tajwid! 7. Pronouncing Allahu Akbar correctly. If Allahu Akbar is pronounced in takbir tahrimah as Āllahu Akbar or Allahu Akbār then salah doesn't even commence. 8. Facing qiblah at all times. Turning your chest 45° away from qiblah invalidates salah. 1 9. If water isn’t sniffed during ghusl such that it reaches the hard bone of the nose, ghusl isn’t complete. 10. If the muqtadi finished saying ‘Allahu Akbar’ before the imam in takbir tahrimah, the muqtadi's salah didn’t even commence.

  • Salah on Specific Occasions Jumu'ah
    In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful Salah on Specific Occasions . Jumu'ah (or Friday) Prayer. Tarawih (or Ramadhan) Prayer. The 'Id Prayers (Salatul-'Idayn). Funeral Prayers (Salatul-Janazah). Shortened Prayer (Salatul-Qasr). Jumu'ah (or Friday) Prayer Friday, is a religious festival for the Muslims. In this holy day, the Muslims gather at the Masjid (mosques). The Salah is offered in congregation. In a hadith, Prophet Muhammad (saw) orders, “The most propitious day the sun rises on is Friday. Adam (as) was put on the Heaven at that day, was taken out of it at that day. The doomsday will be Friday” All these events bear in itself many goods and wisdom. Narrated Abu Huraira: I heard Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) saying, "We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but (will be) the foremost on the Day of Resurrection though the former nations were given the Holy Scriptures before us. And this was their day (Friday) the celebration of which was made compulsory for them but they differed about it. So Allah gave us the guidance for it (Friday) and all the other people are behind us in this respect: the Jews' (holy day is) tomorrow (i.e. Saturday) and the Christians' (is) the day after tomorrow (i.e Sunday)." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 2, Hadith no. 1] Narrated 'Abdullah bin Umar: Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said, "Anyone of you attending the Friday (prayers) should take a bath." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 2, Hadith no. 2] NasirIslam.com – In the Path of Light Page 1 Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) said, "When the Imam is delivering the Khutba, and you ask your companion to keep quiet and listen, then no doubt you have done an evil act."

  • The Significance of Eid By: Imam Ali Siddiqui Meaning the Root Word for Eid Is
    The Significance of Eid By: Imam Ali Siddiqui Meaning The root word for Eid is ‘aa-da meaning he or it returned. Literally it means “the time of return of joy and of grief”. Therefore it signifies a festival. The word Eid appeared in Sura al-Maida, Table Spread, chapter 5 meaning a solemn festival. The Disciples of Isa (as) requested him to pray to his Lord to send down a Table Spread with festive food to eat of it, satisfy their hear, and may be Witnesses to the miracles (Q 5:115-6). Isa (as) prayed to Allah: “O Our Lord! Send us a Table Spread with festive food, that there may be for us, for the first and last of us - Eid, a solemn festival and a Sign from You; and provide for our sustenance, for You are the Best Sustainer.” (Q 5:117) Eid ul-Adha is celebrated on the tenth day of Dhu al-hijah, the 12th and the last month of the Islamic calendar. It is also very joyous day; it is a feast of self-sacrifice, commitment and obedience to Allah. It commemorates the great act of obedience to Allah by the Prophet Ibrahim (as) in showing his willingness to sacrifice his son Ismael (as). Allah accepted his sacrifice and replaced Prophet Ismael (as) with a lamb. The five days long rituals of Hajj are also done during this month culminating on 9th of Dhu al-hijah. Many rituals of Hajj are enactment of the struggle of the family Ibrahim (as) specially his second wife Hajirah (as) and her son Prophet Ismael (as).

  • How to Perform the Daily Prayers the First Rak`Ah
    In the Name of Allah, the Infinitely Compassionate, the Most Merciful. How to Perform the Daily Prayers It is obligatory to perform the following five prayers every day during the prescribed times: q Salat al-Fajr (Pre-Dawn prayer), which consist of two units (each unit of prayer is called a rak`ah) q Salat al-Dhur (Midday prayer) consisting of four units. q Salat al-`Asr (Afternoon prayer) consisting of four units. q Salat al-Maghrib (Post-Dusk/Sunset prayer) which consist of three units. q Salat al-`Isha (Night prayer) consisting of four units. Performing the daily prayers according to the Shi’ah Ja’fari School of Law involves taking prescribed steps in order (tartib) and in regular succession without undue delay between them (muwalat). The person must first perform preliminary purification (ghusl, if necessary, or wudhu) and fulfil all other prerequisites. Preparation Stand upright facing the Qiblah (direction of Mekkah) and recite the adhan and iqama. Please note that all the recitations during the prayer must be in Arabic. Although approximate transliteration has been given below for each recitation, it is best to try and learn the Arabic script and pronunciations. Niyyah : Form the following solemn intention in your mind: “I offer this ____ (name of a particular prayer) prayer, of ____ (number of units) rak`ahs seeking closeness to God.” The First Rak`ah Takbiratul Ihram : Lift both hands up to the ears and say: Allaahu Akbar. God is Greatest. This sentence, the Takbir, will be repeated several times during the prayer. Qiyam : Remain in the standing position while performing the recitations in the next step, Qira’ah.
