Salah from the Quran The importance of Salah: What is so special about how Muslims pray? Muslims are required to : pray five times a day (prayer times are fixed by the sun and change daily), wash themselves before prayer face in the direction of Mecca (Makkah) while praying. Why do Muslims face Mecca when praying? Mecca or Makkah is the birthplace of prophet Muhammad, peace is on him. In the center of the mosque in Mecca, is the cube-shaped building called a Kaaba (Ka'bah) is found. All Muslims face the direction of the Kaaba during ritual prayer (Salat). Muslims believe that the Kaaba is the holiest place on earth. It is generally thought to have been built by Prophet Abraham. It is used only as a focal point for prayer (not worshiped) and simply signifies a direction, imposed by God to maintain unity and uniformity among worshipers. The Kaaba is draped with a black cloth, which is covered with Quranic verses that are embroidered in gold and silver thread. During performing the Hajj ceremony a Muslim walks seven times around the Kaaba. Every Muslim family, no matter where they live, knows what direction the Kaaba is from their house. When do Muslims pray? Each period for prayer has a special name. These essential times are: 1. After first light and before sunrise (Fajr) 2. Between the sun reaching its height and mid-afternoon (Dhuhr) 3. Between mid-afternoon and sunset (Asr) 4. After the sun has finished setting (Maghrib) 5. In the dark of the night (Isha) Salah from the Quran: "Wherever you go, you shall turn your face (during Salat) towards the Sacred Masjid; wherever you might be, you shall turn your faces (during Salat) towards it." [2:150] "Verily, I am Allah. There is no god but I: So serve thou Me (only), and establish regular prayer for My remembrance". {Sura Tá-há, ayah #14} "Establish regular prayers - at the sun's decline till the darkness of the night, and the recital of the Qurán in the morning prayer: for the recital of the dawn is witnessed." (Sura Al-Isrá, ayah # 78) note: How many of us sleep through this blessed time of Fajr Salah and lose this great reward! "And be steadfast in prayer; give Zakat; and bow down your heads with those who bow down (in worship)." (Sura Al-Baqarah, ayah # 43) "And be steadfast in prayer and regular in charity: And whatever good you send forth for your souls before you, you shall find it with Allah. For Allah sees well all that you do." (Sura Al-Baqarah, ayah # 110) "Guard strictly your prayers, especially the Middle Prayer; and stand before Allah in a devout (frame of mind)." (Sura Al-Baqarah, ayah # 238)note: In this ayah and the next few ayats Allah (swt) describes the believers if we claim to be from them then we have to follow what Allah (swt) says in the Quran about them. "Those that turn (to Allah) in repentance; that serve Him, and praise Him; that wander in devotion to the cause of Allah,: that bow down and prostrate themselves in prayer; that enjoin good and forbid evil; observe the limit set by Allah.- (these do rejoice). So proclaim the glad tidings to the Believers." (Sura Al-Tauba, ayah #112) "(They are) those who, if We establish them in the land, establish regular prayer and give Zakat, enjoin the right and forbid wrong: with Allah rests the end (and decision) of (all) affairs." (Sura Al-Hajj, ayah #41) "O my Lord! make me one who establishes regular Prayer, and also (raise such) among my offspring, O our Lord!, and accept Thou my Prayer." (Sura Ibráhím, ayah # 40) Salah from Hadiths: Narrated Abu Hurayrah (radi Allahu anhu) Rasulullah (SAW) said: Five prayers and from one Friday prayer to (the next) Friday prayer is an expiation (of the sins committed in between their intervals) if major sins are not committed. (Sahih Muslim Book 2, Number 0448) Narrated Abu Huraira (raa): I heard Allah's messenger saying, "If there was a river at the door of anyone of you and he took a bath in it five times a day would you notice any dirt on him?" They said, "Not a trace of dirt would be left." The Prophet added, "That is the example of the five prayers with which Allah blots out (annuls) evil deeds." (Sahih Al Bukhari Volume 1, Book 10, Hadith # 506) Narrated Uthman ibn Affan (RAA) Rasulullah (SAW) at the time of our returning from our prayer told us (certain things pertaining to purification). He said: I do not know whether I should tell you a thing or keep quiet. We said: Rasulullah, tell us if it is good and if it is otherwise, Allah and Messenger (SAW) know better. Upon this he said: A Muslim who purifies (himself) and completes purification as enjoined upon him by Allah and then offers the prayers, that will be expiatious (of his sins he committed) between these (prayers). (Sahih Muslim Book 2, Hadith # 0444) Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah (RAA) Rasulullah (SAW) said: The similitude of five prayers is like an overflowing river passing by the gate of one of you in which he washes five times daily. Hasan said: No filthiness can remain on him. (Sahih Muslim Book 4, Hadith # 1411) Narrated Abu Hurairah (RAA) Rasualullah (SAW) said, "Martyrs are those who die because of drowning, plague, an abdominal disease, or of being buried alive by a falling building." And then he added, "If the people knew the Reward for the Zuhr prayer in its early time, they would race for it. If they knew the reward for the 'Isha' and the Fajr prayers in congregation, they would join them even if they had to crawl. If they knew the reward for the first row, they would draw lots for it." (Sahih Al-Bukhari Volume 1, Book 11, Hadith # 688) Narrated Abu Hurairah (RAA) : Rasulullah (SAW) said, "Allah will prepare for him who goes to the mosque in the morning and in the afternoon (for the congregational prayer) an honorable place in Paradise with good hospitality for (what he has done) every morning and afternoon goings. (Sahih Al-Bukhari Volume 1, Book 11, Hadith # 631) Narrated Abu Huraira: "Rasulullah (SAW) said, "The angels keep on asking Allah's forgiveness for anyone of you, as long as he is at his Mu,salla (praying place) and he does not pass wind (Hadath). They say, 'O Allah! Forgive him, O Allah! be Merciful to him." (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 8, Hadith #436) Rasulullah (SAW) said,"The first matter that the slave will be brought to account for on the Day of Judgment is the prayer. If it is sound, then the rest of his deeds will be sound. And if it is bad, then the rest of his deeds will be bad." [Recorded by al-Tabarani. According to al-Albani, it is sahih. Al-Albani, Sahih al-Jami, vol.1, p. 503.] note: for those who say 'I don't pray but my heart is clean should take this warning from Rasulullah (saw) and establish the prayer before they are brought to account infront of Allah (swt)! Rasulullah (saw) said "Allah has obligated five prayers. Whoever excellently performs their ablutions, prays them in their proper times, completes their bows, prostrations and khushu` [Khushu` in the prayer is where the person’s heart is attuned to the prayer.] has a promise from Allah that He will forgive him. And whoever does not do that has no promise from Allah. He may either forgive him or punish him." [Recorded by Malik, Ahmad, Abu Dawud, al-Nasa’I and others. According to al-Albani, it is sahih. Al-Albani, Sahih al-Jami, vol. 1, p. 616.] note: SubhanAllah Allah (swt) is giving us a PROMISE that he will forgive us! What more can we ask for? How can I pray when I have so many sins, they should realize this prayer is a way for them to get their sins forgiven. Why you shouldn’t abandon prayer: Allah (SWT) says "Then, there has succeeded them a posterity who have given up As-Salât (the prayers) [i.e. made their Salât (prayers) to be lost, either by not offering them or by not offering them perfectly or by not offering them in their proper fixed times, etc.] and have followed lusts. So they will be thrown in Hell. Except those who repent and believe (in the Oneness of Allâh and His Messenger Muhammad SAW), and work righteousness. Such will enter Paradise and they will not be wronged in aught." (Sura Maryam, ayat 59-60) note: Here we see what is the place for those who have abandoned the prayer but Allah (swt) is the most merciful and gives us chances to repent and be saved. Allah (swt) says in Sura Al-Mâ'ûn "So woe unto those performers of Salât (prayers) (hypocrites),Who delay their Salât (prayer) from their stated fixed times, Those who do good deeds only to be seen (of men)," (Sura Al-Mâ'ûn, ayat 4 - 6) note: This ayah shows us that we have to pray our Salah on its fixed timings and not delay them without a valid reason (i.e. travelling etc..) and how much we need to have sincerity in your prayer and do it only for Allah (swt). Allah (swt) further warns us in the Quran "O you who believe! Let not your properties or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allâh. And whosoever does that, then they are the losers." (Sura Al-Munaafiqoon, ayah #9) The commentators of the Qur'aan say: "The 'remembrance of Allaah' mentioned in these Aayaat means the five daily prayers.

Editorial Some years ago I took a group of youthful passionate British Christians on a pre-arranged visit to a large UK mosque. We’d had to sort out protocols around dress and headscarves beforehand, and deal with various apprehensions and high spirits. What is memorable from the visit was the awed surprise of the group to the reverential focus on prayer in the mosque. The thoughtful follow-up conversation saw them choosing to process questions about what they focus on when they arrive at church, and the place of prayer in their lives. The theme of this webzine is prayer: it is about a practice at the heart of Muslim daily life and at the same time about a privileged aspect of lived Christian experience. It is a natural topic of conversation when Muslims and Christians get together and yet one that can often be at cross- purpose because of differing assumptions about the nature of prayer. The articles selected for this issue are intended to bring clarity to these encounters.

  • Times of As-Salah: Introduction ﺒﺴﻡ ﺍﷲ ﺍﻟ ﺭ ﺤﻤﺎﻥ ﺍﻟ ﺭ ﺤﻴﻡ All Praises and Thanks
    Times of As-Salah: Introduction By Salmaan Awan on November 04, 2003 08:45:48 ﺒﺴﻡ ﺍﷲ ﺍﻟﺭﺤﻤﺎﻥ ﺍﻟﺭﺤﻴﻡ All praises and thanks are due to Allaah, we thank him, and seek help in Him, and we ask for His forgiveness, and we seek refuge in Him from the evil of ourselves, and from the bad deeds of our actions, and I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship but Allaah and that Muhammad is His slave and last Messenger. As for what follows: Considering the lamentable state of many Muslims regarding praying on time, it has been suggested that a small article be written clarifying the importance of this issue as well as some of its regulations. This unfortunate state of affairs is due, in most cases, either to carelessness or lack of knowledge. And there is no way to truly explain their importance except by returning to the best of speech, the ﺼﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭ) Speech of Allaah, and then the concise, beautiful speech of His Prophet Muhammad .(ﺴﻠﻡ Allaah says in surat Maryam:﴾And mention in the Book Ismaa’eel, verily he was truthful to his covenant and was a messenger, and prophet, and he used to order his family with salaah and zakaah [1] and was pleasing to his Lord» . So take note how Allaah places salaah as a lofty attribute in describing a prophet of Allaah. Then He goes on to say:﴾These are those whom Allaah has bestowed bounty upon from the prophets from the descendants of Adam and from those whom we saved with Nuh and from the descendants of Ibraaheem and Israa’il and from those whom we guided and selected, if the ayahs Ar-Rahmaan are [2] recited to them then they fall prostrate and crying.» .
