Proper performance of prayer. Prayer words and prayer rules. What to read after prayer

Namaz is the order of Allah Almighty. In the Holy Quran, more than a hundred times, it is reminded of the obligatory nature of prayer. The Qur'an and hadith-sharifs say that prayer is obligatory for Muslims who have intelligence and have come of age. Surah verses 17 and 18 room» « Praise God in the evening and in the morning. Praise be to Him in heaven and on earth, at nightfall and at noon". Sura " Bakara» 239 ayat « Fulfill sacred prayers, the middle prayer” (i.e. do not interrupt prayers). The tafsirs of the Qur'an say that the verses, which deal with remembrance and praise, are reminiscent of prayers. In verse 114 of Surah Hood” says: “Perform prayer at the beginning and end of the day and at nightfall, because good deeds drive away evil ones. This is a reminder for those who reflect."

Our Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wassalam) said: “Allah Almighty has made the daily prayer five times fard for his slaves. For a correctly performed ablution, a hand (bow from the waist), and a sajdah (bow to the earth), during prayer, Allah Almighty gives forgiveness and rewards enlightenment.

Five daily prayers, including 40 rak'ahs. 17 of them are in the category of farz. 3 wajibs. 20 rakah sunnah.

1- Morning prayer: (Salat-ul Fajr) 4 rak'ahs. The first 2 rak'ahs are Sunnah. Then 2 rak'ahs of farza. 2 rak'ahs of the sunnah of the morning prayer are very important. There are scholars who say that they are wajib.

2- Midday prayer. (Salat-ul zuhr) Consists of 10 rak'ahs. First, 4 rak'ahs of the first sunnah are performed, then 4 rak'ahs of the farza, and 2 rak'ahs of the sunnah.

3- Evening prayer (Ikindi, salat-ul Asr). There are 8 rak'ahs in total. First, 4 rak'ahs of the sunnah are performed, after, 4 rak'ahs of the farza.

4- Evening prayer (Aksham, salat-ul Maghrib). 5 rak'ahs. The first 3 rak'ahs are fard, then we perform 2 rak'ahs of the sunnah.

5- Night prayer (Yatsy, salat-ul Isha). Consists of 13 rak'ahs. First, 4 rak'ahs of the sunnah are performed. Behind him are 4 rak'ahs of farza. Then 2 rak'ahs of Sunnah. And finally, 3 rak'ahs of Witr prayer.

Sunnats of evening and night prayers from the category Gayr-i muakkada. This means: at the first seat, after Attahiyata, are read Allahumma sally, Allahumma barik and all dua. Then we get up on the third rak'ah, read "Subhanaka..". The first Sunnah of midday prayer is Muakkada". Or a strong sunnah, for which a lot of sawab is given. It is read in the same way as farzes, in the first seat, immediately after reading the attahiyat, you need to get up to start the third rak'ah. Having risen to our feet, we continue the prayer, starting with bismillah, and al-Fatiha.

For example, the sunnets of the morning prayer read like this:

1 - Accept intention (Niyyet)
2 - Introductory (Iftitah) takbir

First you need to stand in the direction of the Qibla. The feet are parallel to each other, the width between them is four fingers. The thumbs touch the earlobes, the palms look at the Qibla. Skip through the heart “I intend, for the sake of Allah, to perform 2 rak'ahs of the Sunnah of today's morning prayer, towards the Qibla.” Speak (in a whisper) "Allahu Akbar" lower your palms and put your right palm on your left palm, hands should be located below the navel.

The little finger and thumb of the right hand, wrap around the wrist.

3 - Standing (Qiyam) in prayer

Without looking away from the place where the forehead is applied during sujud, a) read "Subhanaka..", b) after "auzu.., bismillah.." read Fatih, c) after Fatihi, without a bismill, a short sura (zamm-i sura) is read, for example, a sura "Phil".

4 - RUKU'U

d) After zamm-i sura, saying “ Allahu Akbar» make a ruku. The palms clasp the kneecaps, keep the back flat and parallel to the ground, the eyes should look at the tips of the toes. Say three times Subhana Rabbiyal Azim". Pronounced five or seven times.

5 Kauma.

Get up with words "Themselves'Allahu Estuary Hamidah", eyes look at the place of sujud. When fully extended, say Rabbana Lakal Hamd. "kauma".

5 - Bow to the earth (sujud)

"Allahu Akbar" "Subhana Rabbiyal a'la".

6 – With words "Allahu Akbar" move to the “sitting” position, while the buttocks lie on the left leg, the toes of the right leg remain in place and look at the Qibla, and the feet are placed vertically. The palms rest on the hips, fingers in a free position. (Seating between sujuds is called "jalse")

7 – "Allah akbar", go for the second sujud.

8 – In sujud, say at least three times "Subhana Rabbiyal-a'la" and with words "Allahu Akbar" stand up on feet. When standing up, do not push off the ground, and do not move your legs. From the floor is taken away first: Forehead, then nose, first left, then right hands, then the left knee is taken away, then the right.

9 – Standing on his feet after the bismillah, the Fatiha is read, then the zamm-i sura. After with "Allahu Akbar" is done ruku.

Get up with words "Themselves'Allahu Estuary Hamidah", eyes look at the place of the sujud, the legs of the trousers are not pulled up. When fully extended, say Rabbana Lakal Hamd. Standing thereafter is called "kauma".

Without stopping on your feet, go to sujud with words "Allahu Akbar" At the same time, put in order a) the right knee, then the left, the right palm, then the left, then the nose and forehead. b) The toes are bent towards the Qibla. c) The head is placed between the hands. d) The fingers are clenched. e) The palms are pressed to the ground. Forearms do not touch the ground. e) In this position, at least three times is pronounced "Subhana Rabbiyal a'la".

With words "Allahu Akbar" tuck the left leg under you, the toes of the right foot remain in place and look at the Qibla, and the feet are placed vertically. The palms rest on the hips, fingers in a free position.

After a short sitting with words "Allah akbar", go for the second sujud.

Tahiyyat (Tashahhud)

After the second sujud, the second rak'ah without getting up:

Read a) "Attahiyat", "Allahumma barik .." and "Rabbana Atina ..",

After a greeting (salaam) is given, first to the right "Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah" then left "Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah"

b) After salam, it is pronounced "Allahumma antassalam wa minkassalam tabaraqta ya zal jalali wal ikram". Next, you need to get up and, without uttering a word, begin the obligatory (farz) morning prayer (salat-ul fajr). Because the conversations between the sunnah and the farz, although they do not violate the prayer, but reduce the number of sawabs.

The obligatory (fard) two rak'ahs of the morning prayer are also performed. This time, you will need to make an intention for two rak'ahs of the morning prayer: "I intend, for the sake of Allah, to make 2 rak'ahs of today's morning prayer, which is obligatory for me, towards the Qibla"

After prayer, say three times "Astaghfirullah" then read "Ayatul-Kursi"(255 verses of the Surah " Bakara”), then read 33 tasbih ( Subhanallah), 33 times tahmid ( Alhamdulillah), 33 times takbir ( Allahu Akbar). Then read “La ilaha illalah wahdahu la shikalyakh, lyakhul mulku wa lyakhul hamdu wa hua ala kulli shayin kadir”. All this is spoken softly. Say them loudly bid'at.

Then dua is made. To do this, men stretch their arms to chest level, arms should not be bent at the elbows. Just as for prayer, the Qibla is the Ka'ba, for the dua, the Qibla is the sky. After the dua, the verse is read "Subhanarabbika.." and palms are held across the face.

In four ra'kat sunnats or farzes, you need to get up after the second rak'ah by reading "attahiyat". In the sunnah prayer, in the third and fourth rak'ahs, the sub-surah is read after the Fatiha. In the obligatory (fard) prayers in the third and fourth rak'ahs, the zamm-i sura is not read. It also reads "Maghrib" prayer, in the third rak'ah, the deputy and the sura are not read.

In the morning prayer, in all three rak'ahs, after the Fatiha, a sub-surah is read. Then the takbir is pronounced, and the hands rise to the level of the ears, and are placed back below the navel, then the dua is read "Kunut".

In the sunnats, those who are gair muakkada (sunna asr and the first sunna of ishaa prayers) in the first seat after Attahiyat are also read "Allahumma sally.." and "..barik.."

Some conditions must be met: the body and the place of prayer must be clean, cover all shameful places, face towards Mecca (qibla) and have the intention to perform a certain prayer. The time for reading the prayer is strictly defined. Never at noon, at the time of sunrise and sunset.

After that, you should read aloud the surah Al-Fatiha and the verses from the Koran.

The order of midday prayer

Midday prayer consists of four rak'ahs (cycles). It is done as follows:

1. Having previously fulfilled all the conditions necessary for the start of prayer, stand facing the revered Kaaba, discarding all extraneous thoughts. Turn your heart and attention to Allah, thinking of His Majesty, Mercy and love for His creatures, knowing that He is watching over you. In this case, the legs should be shoulder-width apart, the feet on the same line, the arms are lowered, the gaze is directed to the place where the forehead touches when bowing to the ground.

During the entire prayer, women need to show composure of the body: their legs should be together, their hands should be pressed to the body;

2. Intention.

Starting prayer necessarily make an intention with your heart to perform the appropriate prayer. Do it at the same time as saying takbira, that is, the words "Allahu Akbar" for entry into prayer. For example: “I intend to perform the obligatory (fard) noon prayer for the sake of Allah”. That is, you must mentally express the intention to perform namaz, indicate in it that you are performing an obligatory (farz) prayer, and what kind of prayer (morning, noon or afternoon, etc.). It is advisable to indicate in the intention whether it is timely prayer or reimbursable, as well as the number of rak'ahs. It should be remembered that prayer is performed only for the sake of Allah.

However, before takbir, first saying the intention aloud is sunnah, and this is done in order to make it easier to focus on it mentally.

3. Saying the takbir.

Necessarily stand to say the introductory takbir:

اَللهُ اَكْبَرُ

"Allahu Akbar" (Allah is great). After pronouncing it, you are already in prayer. Takbir and subsequent verbal arcana and prayers should be pronounced so that you yourself can hear the reading, observing, as expected, all the rules of reading and pronouncing the letters without distortion, without adding or subtracting a single letter. All prayers must be read only on the exhale.

When pronouncing takbir, it is recommended to raise your hands so that the thumbs are at the level of the earlobes, the palms are directed forward, the remaining fingers are slightly bent and also directed forward.
Women also raise their hands in the same way.

4. Standing.

Necessarily stand when performing ritual prayer, if a person can. In this case, it is recommended to fold your hands below the chest and above the navel so that the right palm is on the wrist of the left hand and holds it.

5. Reading Surah Al-Fatiha(of the first sura of the Qur'an).

Necessarily reading Surah Al-Fatiha so that they themselves can hear the reading, observing all the rules of reading (tajweed) and the sequence of verses and pronouncing the letters without distortion. The correct reading of Surah Al-Fatiha must be learned directly from the lips of a competent teacher and this should be done without delay.

If someone cannot read Sura Al-Fatiha correctly, then he should read any verses of the Holy Quran, the number of letters in which in total is equivalent to the number of letters in Sura Al-Fatiha (156 letters). If a person knows one or more verses from Surah Al-Fatiha (Basmala is also an verse of Surah Al-Fatiha), he can repeat them so many times to get the same number of letters as in Surah Al-Fatiha ". If a person cannot read anything from the Qur'an, he should read the words of the remembrance of Allah (zikr):

سُبْحانَ اللهِ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلهِ وَلآ إِلهَ إِلاَّ اللهُ واَللهُ اَكْبَرُ

“Subhanallahi, wal-hamdulillahi, wala ilyaha illallahu wallahu akbar”
(Allah is pure from all shortcomings, praise and glory to Allah, there is nothing worthy of worship except Allah, Allah is Great).

The prayer says these words so many times that there are at least as many letters as in Surah Al-Fatiha. For example, it is enough to say the words "Allahu Akbar" twenty times. If a person cannot read either the Al-Fatiha surah, or anything else from the Koran, cannot read the dhikr (for example, a person who has just accepted the faith), then he stands silently for as long as it takes a moderate reading of the surah " Al-Fatiha.

آمينَ يا رَبَّ الْعالَمينَ

“Amin, I am Rabbaal-‘alyamin”

(O Allah - Lord of the worlds, fulfill my request!).

It is also advisable to read at least one or three verses from the Qur'an in the first and second rak'ahs after Surah Al-Fatiha. Before reading Surah Al-Fatiha in the first rak'ah, it is recommended to read the prayer "Iftitah" (See Annex 5) and then "Isti'az".

In this case, the elbows are slightly retracted to the sides, the back, neck and head are on the same straight line. In this position, it is necessary to linger at rest for a while(at least for a time sufficient to pronounce "Subhanallah"). This delay is called "fog". It should be noted that bowing, like all other subsequent actions of prayer, should not be performed for any other purpose than to perform an element of prayer. It is recommended that when performing a waist bow, raise your hands to the level of your ears in the same way as when entering prayer, and say: “Allahu Akbar.” Also, during the waist bow, it is advisable to say three times:

For men, it is recommended that when bowing to the ground, the elbows be laid to the sides and raised from the floor, the stomach does not touch the hips. Women, when bowing to the ground and waist, keep their elbows pressed to the body, and when bowing to the ground, the elbows are also raised from the floor, but the stomach touches the hips.

(O my Lord! Give me forgiveness, have mercy on me, help me, raise my degree, grant me food, lead me further on the true path and protect me from diseases).

When sitting, it is recommended to tuck the left leg under you so that the foot is under the buttocks, while the right foot is located vertically on the floor and rests on the fingers directed forward towards the Qibla, as in prostration.

At the same time, the gaze from the place where the forehead touches is directed to the rising index finger, even if you cannot see it due to darkness or for another reason.

The order of performance of the afternoon and night prayers

Afternoon and night prayers are performed in the same way as midday. The intention should indicate that the obligatory afternoon (or night) prayer is being performed. In the first two rak'ahs of the night prayer, men are advised to read a short sura aloud after the Al-Fatiha surah. This is also allowed for women if there are no strangers nearby.

The procedure for performing the evening prayer

The three rak'ahs of the evening prayer are performed in the same way as the first three rak'ahs of the night prayer, but with the intention of fulfilling the obligatory evening prayer. After the second sujud, the third rak'ah is performed paragraphs 14 and 15.

The order of the morning prayer

The two rak'ahs of the morning prayer are performed in the same way as the first two rak'ahs of the night prayer, but with the intention of fulfilling the obligatory morning prayer.

After the second sujud of the second rak'ah, perform paragraphs 14 and 15. Also after saying "Rabbana lakal-hamd", straightening up after a waist bow (in I'tidal) second rak'ah, it is recommended to read the dua "Kunut".

"It was narrated by Imams an-Nawawi and Ibn Hibban that once a man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked:" O Messenger of Allah! Verily, I cannot learn to read the Qur'an. Teach me what will replace the reading of the Qur'an " The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: “Say: subhanallahi, wal-hamdulillahi, valya ilyaha illallahu wallahu akbar, valya havlya valya kuvvata illya billahil-'aliyyil-'azim.”
"In another saying, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:" If you can read the Qur'an, then read it.

"When reading "Salavat" in the "Tashahhud" of obligatory prayers, the word "sallim" is not pronounced. "Tashahhud" is read without this word."

“After saying “Salam” and turning your head to the right, it is advisable to mentally greet all the believers (people, angels and jinn) who are on your right side. Then, in the same way, turn your head to the left and say “Salam”, while mentally making the intention to greet everyone believers on your left."

After believing in God and His Messenger - Prophet Mu X ammada, peace be upon him, the fulfillment of the five obligatory Namaz (Prayers) is the best deed of a Muslim. One day Prophet Mu X ammadu, peace be upon him, was asked what deed is the best. He replied:

الصَّلاةُ لِوَقْتِهَا أَيْ فِي أَوَّلِ وَقْتِهَا

which means: Obligatory Prayers performed on time. Passed this X adi with Imam Al Baiha to th.

When we say "Namaz", we mean the worship of God in the way it was reported to the Prophet Mu X ammadu, peace be upon him. All Prophets, from the Prophet BUT lady before Prophet Mu X ammada, peace be upon them, ordered their followers to perform Namaz as it was commanded by God.

Since ancient times, Namaz has been the most important deed after faith in God and His Messenger, and each of us must plan the regime of our day in such a way as to be able to perform Namaz on time. It is a great sin when a mukallaf ignores the performance of Namaz, justifying himself by being busy: shopping in a store or waiting for a flight at the airport and not being able to come home or go to the mosque, he is still obliged to perform Namaz on time. Even when a person is sick and lies in bed, as long as he is sane, he is obliged to perform Namaz. The above indicates that the fulfillment of the obligatory Namaz is more priority than other matters.

PREPARATION FOR Prayer

There are obligatory and optional prayers, for the performance of which a reward is given. The optional prayers require the same preparations as the five obligatory prayers. There are several requirements for a person who wants to perform Namaz: the worshiper must be a Muslim who has reached the age of mumayiz - this is usually seven years according to the lunar calendar (about 6 years and 9 months according to the calendar generally accepted in the world).

T ah a rat (Purification)

To perform Namaz, a Muslim must be able to T ah a rat". T ah a rat includes: purification from naj a sy (filth), Al- At at du` (partial washing of the body) and Al- G usul (full ablution of the body) - for the one who is obliged to do this.

Cleansing from najas (from impurities)

According to Shar and‘atu some substances are unclean. Their presence on the body, clothing of a person, at the place of Prayer, as well as with oneself (for example, in a pocket) during Namaz is not allowed. We list some of them: urine, feces, blood, vomiting, discharge from male and female genital organs, with the exception of mania (according to the school of Imam Sh a fi‘iy maniy are not impurities).

In order to cleanse after urination, a person blots the urine with toilet paper, then pours water on the urine-contaminated areas.

In case of excretion of feces, a person removes it from the body with toilet paper, then pours water on contaminated places to remove traces of impurities.

It is also acceptable to use only toilet paper or only water. However, the use of one toilet paper has its own conditions. You can limit yourself to using paper if the urine has not spread beyond the exit from the urethra. If the urine has gone beyond these boundaries, then it is necessary to apply water. Also in the case of feces: if the impurities have gone beyond the area located inside the buttocks brought together when the person is in a standing position.

Al- At at du` (small or partial washing of the body)

All said a h the Most High in the Holy To ur`ane (Sura 5 “Al-M a`ida", Ayat 6):

﴿ يَأَيُّهَا الذّينَ ءَامَنُوا إِذَا قُمْتُمْ إِلى الصَّلاةِ فَاغْسِلوا وُجُوهَكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ إِلى المَرَافِقِ وامْسَحُوا بِرُءُوسِكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ إِلى الكَعْبَيْنِ ﴾

This Ayat means: “Oh you! Those who believed, if you stand for Salah (that is, before Namaz), wash your faces and hands up to the elbows (including the elbows), wipe your heads (that is, at least part of the head) and wash your feet up to the ankles (including the ankles).

Al- At at du` consists of mandatory requirements and optional, but recommended for committing acts. Mandatory requirements are those without which Al- At at du` is invalid. The recommended actions are those, if they are not fulfilled, Al- At at du` is valid, and a reward is given for their execution. Al- At at du` is performed only with water.

Note

When performing Al- At at du` and Al- G usul it is preferable to use a small amount of water. In the collection " With a hih Muslim” it is said that the Messenger of Allah a ha, peace be upon him, used the mudd of water (a handful - two palms of an average person brought together) to perform Al- At at du` and Ca‘(four handfuls of an average person) to perform Al- G usul. Also in the collection "Sa hih Muslim” it is mentioned that the Messenger of Allah a ha used six mudds of water for Al- At at du` and thirty mudds for Al- G usul.

What stops Al- At at du`

If you were able to "Al- At at du`", and then one of the circumstances that stopped Al- At at du`, then you cannot perform Namaz until you perform Al- At at du` again. Circumstances violating Al- At at du`:

To "al-ajnabiy" does not include close relatives: mother, father, sister, brother, etc., with whom, according to Shar and‘atu, you cannot marry.

If at least one of these circumstances occurred during Namaz, then Namaz is immediately violated, and Al- At at du` and perform Namaz.

Al- G usul (full body ablution)

In order to perform Namaz, a Muslim must perform Al- G usul in the following cases:

How to perform Al- G usul

  1. Necessary make the intention of doing Al- G usul as soon as the water touches the body. One should “say” in the heart: “I intended (intentioned) to fulfill the obligatory (fard) G usul";
  2. Necessarily wash the entire body with water, including the entire hairline. It is recommended to do this 3 times;

When performing Al- At at du` and Al- G usulya it is necessary that everything that prevents the flow of water through the body is removed (for example: nail polish or mascara on the eyelashes).

Tayammum (cleansing without water)

In some cases (if there is no water or its use is harmful to health), instead of Al- At at du` or Al- G usul, Tayammum is performed, i.e. cleansing with the help of earth (sand), as mentioned in the Holy To ur`ane:

﴿ فَلَمْ تَجِدُوا مَآءً فَتَيَمَّمُوا صَعِيدًا طَيّبًا فَامْسَحُوا بِوُجُوهِكُمْ وأَيْدِيَكُم مّنْهُ ﴾

(Sura 4 "An-Nis a`", Ayat 43),

which means: “If you do not find water, then perform Tayammum with pure earth. Wipe your faces and hands with it."

Prophet Mu X ammad, peace be upon him, said:

جُعِلَتْ لَنَا الأَرْضُ كُلُّهَا مَسْجِدًا وَجُعِلَتْ تُربَتُهَا لَنَا طَهُورًا

It means: “We are allowed to pray on pure land and it is allowed to use it for ritual cleansing - Tayammuma.” This saying was narrated by Imam Muslim.

In order to perform Tayammum, a person must be sure that the time for Namaz has come. Tayammum is valid for only one obligatory Namaz. Before each obligatory Namaz, Tayammum is performed again. For optional prayers, one Tayammum is enough.

How to perform Tayammum

The performer of Tayammum must be sure that the earth (sand) with which he is going to perform Tayammum contains dust and that it has not been used previously to perform Tayammum (Fig. 1).

Performing Tayammum:

  1. Necessarily- hit the ground with your palms and make an intention, "saying" with your heart: "I intended (intended) to perform Tayammum in order to have the right to perform the obligatory Namaz." Intention arises from the moment the hands are raised from the ground after hitting it and continues until the hands touch the face; (fig.2);

  2. Necessarily- wipe the dust left on the palms after hitting the ground (on the sand), the whole face (face boundaries: see the section "How to perform Al- At at du`") - fig. 3;
  3. Necessarily- 2nd time to hit the ground with your palms and rub both hands with them (those parts that are washed during Al- At at du`).

  4. It is recommended to wipe the right hand first, and then the left hand (Fig. 4). Necessary be sure that the earth (sand) remaining on the hand that is wiping the other hand has reached all parts of the hand being wiped (Fig. 5-8).

When is Namaz performed

Obligatory Namaz performed only after they will be sure that the time for this Namaz has come. Therefore, it is necessary to know how to determine the time of the onset and end of each obligatory Namaz.

Five obligatory prayers

All said a h in Sacred To ur`ane:

﴿ حَافِظوا عَلى الصَّلوات ﴾

(Sura 2 "Al-Ba to ara, Ayat 238").

It means: "Perform the five obligatory prayers."

Allah's Messenger said a ha, peace be upon him:

خَمْسُ صَلَوَاتٍ كَتَبَهُنَّ اللهُ عَلى العِبَاد. من أَتى بِهِنَّ لَمْ يُضَيّعْ منهُنَّ شَيئًا اسْتخفَافًا بِحَقّهِنَّ كَانَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وتَعالى عَهْدٌ أن يُدْخِلَهُ الجَنَّة. ومن لَمْ يَأْتِ بِهِنَّ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللهِ عَهْدٌ إن شاء عذَّبَه وإن شاء غَفَر لَه

It means: “There are five prayers that Allah a h commanded to fulfill His servants. To the one who performs them properly, without violations, All a h promised Paradise. The one who did not perform Namaz as expected is in danger: God did not promise him deliverance from the torment of hell - Allah a h will either punish him or grant him forgiveness.” Narrated this saying by Imam A X mad.

Every Muslim mukallaf (adult, insane), that hir (that is, a woman in a clean period, when she does not have menstruation or postpartum discharge) must perform five Namaz per day.

The following five prayers are obligatory:

  1. Namaz "A" hW uhr” (Afternoon Prayer);
  2. Namaz “Al-‘A with r” (Evening Prayer);
  3. Namaz “Al-Ma” G rib” (Evening Prayer);
  4. Namaz “Al-‘Ish a`” (Night Prayer);
  5. Namaz "A" withWith ub X” (Dawn Prayer).

Each of the obligatory prayers has its own specific time at which it must be performed. Performing the obligatory Namaz before or after a certain time without a good reason for Religion is a sin.

All a h bestowed knowledge on the Prophet Mu X ammadu through the Archangel Jabrail, peace be upon them, how to determine the time of each Namaz.

How to determine the times of Namaz

Namaz "A" with With ubh” (Dawn Prayer)

Prayer time “A” withWith ub X” (in Fig. - A) begins with a true dawn, i.e. just after a thin horizontal white band appears on the eastern horizon. Prayer time “A” withWith ub X” continues until sunrise, that is, until the sun disk appears on the eastern horizon (in Fig. - B).

Namaz "A" h W uhr” (Afternoon Prayer)

Prayer time “A” hW uhr” starts from the moment the sun deviates from the zenith towards the west (in Fig. - C) and continues until the length of the shadow from a certain object becomes equal to its height plus the length of the shadow from this object at the moment when the sun was in zenith (in Fig. - D).

Namaz “Al-‘Asr” (Evening Prayer)

Prayer times “Al-‘A with r” begins immediately after the time of Namaz “A” ends. hW uhr” (in Fig. - D), and ends with sunset, i.e. when the solar disk is completely hidden behind the horizon (in Fig. - E).

Namaz “Al-Maghrib” (Evening Prayer)

Namaz “Al-Ma” G rib” begins after full sunset (E) and continues until the red sunset line on the western horizon disappears (F).

Namaz “Al-‘Isha” (Night Prayer)

Prayer times “Al-‘Ish a`” begins immediately after the end of the time of Namaz “Al-Ma G rib”, and ends with the advent of the true dawn.



How to dress for prayer

A woman must cover her entire body (with clothing that hides her skin color), except for her face and hands. The body must remain covered during the entire Namaz. If, in Namaz, when tilted, the scarf covering the woman’s head, for example, slid forward, exposing her neck, her Namaz is not accepted. Also, a woman must be sure that her body is closed on all sides, except for the bottom (top and side). For this purpose, over your main clothing, you can wear a special dress that would completely cover the body from all sides except the bottom. The second dress has another benefit: it hides the shape of the woman's body.

For a man, the area from the navel to the knees on all sides, except for the bottom, should be closed during the entire Namaz. Also his clothes must be opaque, that is, hiding the color of the skin.

NAMAZ

Every Muslim mukallaf must perform five prayers a day, which are called obligatory. Failure to perform any of the obligatory prayers without a valid religious reason is a great sin.

One of the advantages of performing obligatory Namaz is that a person is forgiven for minor sins committed by him between Namaz. Prophet Mu X ammad, peace be upon him, said:

أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ أَنَّ نَهْرًا بِبَابِ أَحَدِكُمْ يَغْتَسِلُ مِنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ
هَلْ يَبْقَى مِنْ دَرَنِهِ شَىْءٌ؟

meaning: "If any of you had a river flowing near the yard, and you bathed in it five times a day, would any dirt remain on your body?" The Companions replied: “No, I wouldn’t stay.” Then the Prophet said:

فَذَلِكَ مَثَلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ يَمْحُو اللهُ بِهِنَّ الْخَطَايَا مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ

“It is like praying five times, thanks to which sins are forgiven”.

    Interpretation of Surah Al-F a ti X a"

    1. I start with the Name All a ha - the One Almighty Creator. He is the Merciful, the Bestower of blessings for all in this World, and the Merciful only for believers in the Other World.
    2. Praise All a hu, the Lord of the worlds, for all that He gave to His servants (Angels, people, genies). All glory is Allah a hu, Creator and Lord of the worlds.
    3. He is Ar-Ra X m a n (Merciful to all in this World) and
      He is Ar-Ra hee m (Gracious only for believers in the Other World).
    4. All a h - One Lord of the Day of Judgment, the Day of Reckoning and Retribution. And no one but Him has power over anything on This Day. All a h rules over everything.
    5. To You alone we make the highest degree of worship and cry out to You for help.
    6. Keep us on the Path of Truth (on the Path of Islam), goodness and happiness.
    7. Lead us along the Path of Your pious servants, to whom You have granted to believe in You and to whom You have shown Your Mercy, directing them along the straight Path (the path of Islam), along the path of those whom You have favored (along the Path of the Prophets and Angels). But not along the path of those whom You punished and who strayed from the Path of Truth and goodness, deviating from faith in You, not showing obedience to You.

    If someone cannot read Surah Al-F a ti X a", he should read any passage from the Holy To ur`ana, which he can read well, and the number of letters in it must not be less than the number of letters in Sura Al-F a ti X a" (156 letters).
    If someone knows one or more Ayats from Surah Al-F a ti X a”, then he can repeat them several times so that the same or more letters are pronounced as in the whole Sura “Al-F a ti X a".
    If a person cannot read a single Ayat from Surah Al-F a ti X a", then reads other Ayats from To ur`ana, the number of letters in which is not less than in Sura "Al-F a ti X a".
    And if a person cannot read anything from To urʻana, then must read W ikr (words of remembrance of Allah a ha), such as:

    سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَالْحَمْدُ ِللهِ وَلاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللهُ وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ
    "Sub Ha na-ll a h, at al- X amdu lill I h, at a l I silt I ha illusll a h, at all a hu Akbar"
    ("All a h above all shortcomings, Praise and Glory - Allah a hu, there is no deity except Allah a ha, all a h Omnipotent").

    The worshiper pronounces these words as many times as it will be enough so that at least the same number of letters is obtained as in Surah Al-F a ti X a".
    Narrated by the Imams of An-Na at a at yy and ibn X ibb a nom that once a man came to the Prophet, peace be upon him, and asked: “Oh, the Messenger of Allah a ha! Truly, I cannot learn to read To ur'ana. Teach me something that will replace reading To ur'ana". The Prophet, peace be upon him, replied: "Tell:

    سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَالْحَمْدُ ِللهِ وَلاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللهُ وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِاللهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيمِ
    "Sub X anal a h, at al- X amdu lill I h, at a l I silt I ha illusll a h, at all a hu Akbar. At a l I X a at la at a l I to at uu ata illa bill I hil-‘Aliyil-‘A zs m"".

    In a different X adi with e The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: "If you can read To ur'an, then read it. If not, then read "Al- X amdu-li-ll I h, l I silt I ha illa-ll a h, All a hu Akbar"".
    For example, say the words "All a hu Akbar” twenty times is enough.
    In the event that a person cannot read either Sura Al-F a ti X a" or any of the other To ur'ana, and also W calf, then he, during the time necessary for a moderate reading of Surah Al-F a ti X a, stands silently.
    After reading Surah Al-F a ti X a" it is recommended to say: " BUT m and n "(" Oh, All a h! Grant me what I ask of You." It is also recommended to read at least one Ayat from To ur'ana in the 1st and 2nd rak'at (Namaz cycle) - see below. Before reading Surah Al-F a ti X a "in the 1st rak'ah it is recommended to read "Tawajzhuh" (Du' a`, starting Namaz) and then "Isti' a for "(appeal with a prayer to All a to the Almighty for protection from the shaitan (devil) cursed by God)- see below);

    It is recommended to hold hands as described in paragraph "12". Raise your index finger slightly while pronouncing the words "illall a h" and keep him in this position until the end of Namaz. It is recommended to sit on the floor, bending the left leg, and leave the right leg in the same position as with Sujud.

What violates Namaz

It is necessary to know the circumstances that violate Namaz.

Among them are the following:

  1. Failure to perform one obligatory part of Namaz.
  2. The utterance of extraneous words that are not related to Namaz, if at the same time the prayer remembers that he is performing Namaz.
  3. A lot of extraneous movements, if they take the time of one rak'ah, according to some scientists. According to other scholars, Namaz is violated by 3 extraneous movements in a row. The opinion of the first scientists is preferred.
  4. Making sudden movements, such as jumping.
  5. Adding extra hand-actions, for example, if a person performs 2 Hand instead of one or 3 Sujud instead of 2 in one rak'at intentionally, remembering that Namaz is being performed.
  6. Making at least one game movement (for example, if a person showed his tongue to someone or winked playfully).
  7. Eating or drinking even in small quantities, remembering that Namaz is being performed.
  8. Breaking Al At at du`, for example, when passing gases or urine.
  9. If you intend to interrupt Namaz or hesitate to interrupt Namaz or not, as well as if you intend to interrupt Namaz due to some circumstance (for example, if someone has set a condition: “If the doorbell rings, I will interrupt Namaz”, or hesitates in this. In this case, the prayer of a person is immediately violated).

How to read Namaz to someone who cannot perform Sujud on the ground

A person who can stand and can perform Ruku‘, but cannot do Sujud, performs Namaz as follows:

  1. He stands in the direction To ybla and says: "Allahu Akbar" with the intention of performing Namaz.
  2. Reads Sura "Al-F a ti X a" standing.
  3. Performs Ruku ‘as usual, while the palms should be at the level of the knees. You should be in this position at rest for the time necessary to pronounce the words "Sub Ha null a h".
  4. You should return to the "standing" position and be at rest for the time necessary to pronounce the words "Sub Ha null a h".
  5. Then the worshiper sits down on a chair (armchair, bench) - fig. a, leans forward so that the forehead is in front of the knees, and is at rest for the time necessary to pronounce the words "Sub Ha null a h"(Fig. b).

  6. "Sit between Sujuds" - return to the "sitting" position and be in this position at rest for the time required to pronounce "Sub Ha null a h".
  7. 2nd Sujud - one should bend down in the same way as in the 1st Sujud, and be in this position at rest for the time required to pronounce "Subh en all a h".
  8. Then the worshiper gets up to read the 2nd rak'ah.
  9. He repeats all the points, as in the 1st rak'ah, but after he has done the 2nd Sujud, he does not get up, but reads while sitting Tashahhud and "BUT withСъ Alyat Al-Ibr a him and ya." If the worshiper read Namaz "BUT with—S ub X» , then after sitting in the 2nd rak'at he says: "As-sal I mu'alaikum wa ra X matullah", in this case, it is recommended to turn the head to the right, then, while pronouncing the same words, turn the head to the left (Fig. c, d). With this, the prayer completes his Namaz. In the same way, the worshiper reads the rest of the Namaz, adding the appropriate number of rak'ats.

How to read Namaz to someone who can stand, but cannot perform Hand ‘ while standing and Sujud on the ground

Whoever can stand while reading Namaz, but cannot perform Ruku ‘and Sujud, he does the following:

  1. stands in the direction To ybla and with the intention of reading Namaz says: “All a hu Akbar".
  2. Standing reads Surah Al-F a ti X a ”- so as to hear yourself (Fig. e).
  3. Makes Ruku ‘and is in this position at rest for the time necessary to pronounce “Sub Ha nallah” (Fig. e).
  4. Then he straightens up and is in this position at rest for the time necessary to pronounce the words “Sub Ha null a h".
  5. Sits on a chair (chair) and performs the first Sujud leans forward so that the forehead is in front of the knees, is in this position at rest for the time required to pronounce “Sub Ha nallah” (Fig. h).
  6. Returns to the “sitting” position, is in this position at rest for the time necessary to pronounce “Subh en all a h" (fig. g).
  7. Performs the second Sujud in the same way as the first, and is in this position at rest for the time necessary to pronounce "Sub Ha null a h".
  8. He gets up to perform the second rak'at, does everything in the same way as in the first rak'at, but after the second Sujud sits to read Tashahhud and "A with-Sal I t Al Ibr a h and m and ya."
    If the worshiper read Namaz "A withСъ ub X", then ends it after the 2nd rak'ah with the pronunciation of" As-Sal I mu'alaikum." He performs the rest of the Namaz in the same way, while adding the appropriate number of rak'ats.

How to read Namaz to someone who cannot stand at all

The one who prays sits in the direction To ybla.

He says: "Allah a hu Akbar" with the intention to perform Namaz (fig. m).

Reads Surah Al-F a ti X a "sitting (Fig. n).

He makes Ruku‘ and Sujud in the same way as it was described in the previous topic (“How to read Namaz to someone who can stand, but cannot perform Ruku‘ and Sujud”), but since he cannot stand, he does everything while sitting.

Jama‘at (Collective Namaz)

A person receives a great reward when he performs Namaz collectively. It can be both in the mosque and elsewhere. In a collective Namaz, one prayer stands in front (imam), while others following the imam in Namaz stand behind him. The one who follows the imam in the collective Namaz is called "ma`mum". The reward for Namaz performed collectively is 27 times greater than for Namaz performed alone. This is stated in X adi with e:

صَلاةُ الرَّجُل فى الجَمَاعَةِ تَزِيدُ على صَلاتِهِ وَحْدَهُ سَبْعًا وَعَشْرِينَ

It means: “For Namaz performed collectively, the reward is 27 times greater than for Namaz performed individually.” Passed this X adi with Imam Muslim.

When performing Namaz, the imam is followed by:

  • Stand behind the imam.
  • Say Takbir after pronouncing Takbir by the imam.
  • Have in your heart the intention to follow the imam, for example: “I intended (intend) to follow the imam when performing the obligatory Namaz “A hW uhr"".
  • You should wait until the imam moves to the next position of Namaz, and then move to this position himself.

How to read Namaz to someone who was late for the beginning of Namaz

Latecomers can be called those who came to the collective Namaz after the imam began to perform it, and did not have time for the imam to read Sura Al-F a ti X a” (i.e. when the imam stood or performed Ruku‘, I‘tidal, Sajdah or read Tashahhud). If the latecomer managed to join any part of the collective Namaz, then he receives the reward of the collective Namaz.

What should a latecomer do?

The latecomer begins Namaz by saying the words "All a hu Akbar" with the simultaneous intention of performing Namaz. Then he follows the imam in his actions.

If the imam finishes reading Surah Al-F a ti X a", and the latecomer to the beginning of Namaz only begins to read it, then when the imam finishes reading and makes Hand ‘, the latecomer stops his reading of Surah Al-F a ti X a” and follows the imam.

If the imam performs Ruku ‘, then the one who is late for the beginning of Namaz after pronouncing the words “Allahu Akbar” immediately proceeds to perform Ruku ‘. All this rak'at will be counted to him if he managed to be at rest for a time sufficient to pronounce "Sub Ha na-ll a h" until the imam performed I'tidal. If the next imam did not have time for Imam's Hand, then this rak'at is not counted for him, and it will be necessary to read it after the imam completes Namaz.

If the imam was in the “standing” position after Ruku ‘, in Sajdah or sitting, then the latecomer takes the same position as the imam, but this rak’ah is not counted for him. He needs to read it after the imam completes Namaz. If the latecomer joined the imam when he read the last Tashahhud, then he follows the imam, but after the imam completes Namaz, he will need to read all the rak'ats of Namaz.

Fulfillment of Namaz-debts

Prophet Mu X ammad, peace be upon him, said:

مَنْ نَامَ عَنْ صَلاةٍ أَوْ نَسِيَهَا فَلْيَقْضِهَا إِذَا ذَكَرَهَا لَيْسَ لَهَا كَفَّارَةً إِلاَّ ذلِكَ

meaning: “Who overslept and did not read Namaz, let him read as soon as he remembers. He has no other redemption." This saying was narrated by Imam al-Bukhariy.

Who overslept the time of Namaz, he reads Namaz as a duty.

If a person forgot to perform Namaz and remembered only after the time of this Namaz had passed, then he also reads Namaz as a duty.

As for the one who missed a lot of Namaz and does not know their exact number, he reads Namaz-debts until he is sure that he has made up the entire debt in full. A Muslim does not leave his debts, he hurries to pay them off, without postponing for later.

It is better to repay debts for Namaz in the following sequence: A withWith ub X, BUT hW uhr, Al-‘A with r etc.

Whoever died without having time to fulfill Namaz-debts, but had the intention to complete their fulfillment and was not lazy, then Allah a h will not punish him.

A woman during menstruation and postpartum cleansing does not read Namaz and does not repay debts for Namaz missed these days.

Jumu'a (Friday Prayer)

Friday is the best day of the week. There are special blessings on Friday. Muslim men must attend Friday Prayer.

In the sacred To Ur`ana says (Sura 62 "Al-Jumu'a", Ayat 9):

﴿ يَأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا إِذَا نُودِىَ لِلصَّلاةِ مِن يَوْمِ الجُمُعَةِ فاسْعَوْا إِلى ذِكْرِ اللهِ وَذَرُوا البَيْعَ ذلِكُمْ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ﴾

It means: “Oh, believers! When the call to Friday Namaz comes, then hasten to Prayer and sermons in which there are mentions of Allah a ha, and stop all kinds of buying and selling - it will be better for you, oh if you only knew!

Prophet Mu X ammad, peace be upon him, said:

رَواحُ الجُمُعَةِ واجِبٌ على كُلّ مُحْتَلِمٍ

It means: “Performance of Friday Namaz is obligatory for every mukallaf (male)” Narrated this saying by An-Nasa`i.

Women, although they are not required to, can perform Friday Prayer. This Namaz is performed collectively, usually in a mosque, during Namaz "A hW uhr", instead of Namaz "A hW uhr" of this day. Instead of four rak'ats of Namaz "A hW uhr" you perform only two rak'ats. You begin Namaz with the intention of performing the collective Friday Namaz instead of Namaz "A hW uhr". If you missed the collective Friday Namaz, then you perform Namaz "A hW uhr" into four rak'ats. During the Friday Prayer, Muslims carefully listen to two sermons before the start of the Prayer. Friday Namaz is performed immediately after the reading of two sermons.

Namaz "Jan" a for "(Funeral Prayer)

Performing the Funeral Prayer for a deceased Muslim is a collective duty for the Muslim community. Just as with the obligatory Namaz, the worshipers must be in a state of Al- At at du`. However, during the Prayer for the deceased, neither Ruku' nor Sujud is performed.

How to perform Namaz "Jan" a behind"

  1. Stand with your chest in the direction of the Ka'ba.
  2. While pronouncing the words "All a hu Akbar" make an intention: "I intended to perform Namaz" Dzhan a for "(Funeral Prayer) for this dead Muslim."
  3. In a whisper (so that you can hear yourself) read Surah Al-F a ti X a", then say: "All a hu Akbar".
  4. Tell:

اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ

/All a humma with alli 'al I Mu X ammad/

Better if you read in full With Alatul-Ibr a h and m and ya" and then say: "All a hu Akbar".

  1. Read Du' a to a dead Muslim:

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْهُ

/All a humma- G fir lahu at a-r X amhu/

It means: “Oh God, forgive him and grant him mercy,” if the deceased is a man.

And if this is a woman, then read for her the following Du‘ a`:

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهَا وَارْحَمْهَا

/All a humma- G fir lah a at a-r X amh a/

It means: "Oh my God! Forgive her and grant her mercy."

It is desirable to mention in Du‘ a` and other Muslims:

اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا. اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ، وَمَن تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الإِيمَانِ

/All a humma- G fir whether X ayyin a at a mayyitin a at a w a Hidin a at a ha`ibin a at a with a gi rin a at and kyab and rin a at a h akarin a at a un sa n a. All a humma mana X yaitahu minn a fa`a X th and h and ‘ala-l-isl I m, at a manta at affaitahu minn a veil at affahu ‘ala-l- and m a n/

It means: "Oh All a h! Forgive our living and dead, those present and absent, our young and old, our men and women. Oh All a h! Grant the one who survived to practice Islam, and grant the dying one to die in faith. Passed Du‘ a`At-Tirmi h uy.

Then say: "All a hu Akbar".

  1. Recommended to say:

اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تَحْرِمْنَا أَجْرَهُ وَلاَ تَفْتِنَّا بَعْدَهُ

/All a humma l I that X rimn a ajrahu at a l I tuftinn a ba‘dah(u)/

It means: "Oh All a h! Grant us rewards for the Prayer read to him, and protect us from error.

  1. Tell: "As-Sal I mu'alaikum." Recommended to say: "As-Salamu'alaykum at a Ra X matull a h" turning your head to the right and then to the left.

When offering condolences to a Muslim whose friend or relative is a Muslim, they are advised to say:

أَعْظَمَ اللهُ أَجْرَكَ وَأَحْسَنَ عَزَاءَكَ وَغَفَرَ لِمَيِّتِكَ

/BUT' h ama-ll a hu ajrakya at a a X sana'az a`akya at a G afara li-mayitikya/

It means: "Let Allah a h will reward you, give you much patience and forgive your loved one.”

And when comforting a Muslim whose non-Muslim relative has died, say the following:

أَعْظَمَ اللهُ أَجْرَكَ وَصَبَّرَكَ

/ BUT' h ama-ll a hu ajrakya at a with abbarakya/

It means: May Allah reward you a h for your good deeds and will give you patience.”

Interpretation of Ayat "Al-Kursiy"

"I start with the Name of All a ha - the One Almighty Creator. He is the Merciful, the Bestower of blessings for all in this life and the Merciful only for believers in the Other World; There is no deity other than Allah a ha, the One and Only and One Creator. Nobody and nothing is worthy
worship other than God;

Al-Khayu - All a h Alive. His Life is Eternal – without beginning and without end. His Life is different from the life of those created: His Life is without a spirit, without blood, without a body, and is not like the life of any other. We live in the presence of the body, blood, soul. The Creator is alive, but not like any living thing, His Life is different from the life of all existing ones.

Al- To ayyum - the Almighty does not need anyone or anything. Everyone else needs Him. Everything that enters the Universe - Paradise, Hell, earth, sky, people, Angels, genies - needs Allah a he Almighty. He has neither fatigue nor sleep.

He is the Lord of all, the Creator of the heavens, the earth and what is between them, above them and below them. All a h Omniscient. Inhabitants of heaven and earth (Angels, people, including Prophets, Messengers, A at liya, and genies) know only what Allah let them know a h. And only Allah a h knows everything.

Al-Kursiy is a grandiose body that is located in the upper world. It is much larger in size than heaven and earth combined. Seven heavens and seven lands compared to Al-Kursiyy are like a ring thrown in the desert. By the Will of All a ha the earth, the sky, the stars, the universe are preserved. All this is not difficult for Him to preserve in the form in which it was created by Him. Keeping this, He does not get tired.

Al-‘Al and y is the Creator who does not have any shortcomings.

Rukn Namaz is an integral part of Namaz.

Prayer is one of the obligatory pillars of the Islamic religion. It must be followed by every true believer. Prayer frees the mind, calms the soul and clears the mind. Namaz is a fivefold prayer that helps Muslims turn to the Lord and cope with difficult situations. But in order to read prayer correctly, it is necessary to follow certain rules and perform prayers at certain times of the day and night.

Prayer times and names

Each prayer includes several rak'ahs, sequences of actions. They consist of reading certain surahs of the Qur'an in a standing position and two types of bows: to the belt and to the ground.

  • Morning prayer is called Fajr and consists of 2 rak'ahs. It is performed from the moment, as soon as the first signs of dawn appeared, until the final sunrise. Prayer stops as soon as the sun is completely behind the horizon line.
  • Lunch - Zuhr - 4 rak'ahs. Starts a couple of minutes after noon.
  • Afternoon - Asr - 4 rak'ahs. Takes place a few hours before sunset. It is fundamentally necessary to finish praying before the sun begins to be lost behind the horizon line.
  • Evening - Maghreb - 3 rak'ahs. It is performed immediately after the sun has set, but even before the evening glow has disappeared.
  • Night - Isha - 4 rak'ahs. Done late in the evening. Prayer time is until dawn. However, it is better not to delay and pray on time.

In addition to the main actions, there are desirable prayers, for the performance of which Allah will reward the believers. For beginners, of course, to begin with, it is enough to learn the main part of the ritual and get used to the regular schedule of five times prayer. But after it becomes a habit, it is advisable to add the rest of the sunnat prayers.

Preparing for prayer

Before you start praying, you need to:

  • Cleanse the body: do a small bath, wudu. If necessary, the believer must make a ghusl.
  • Wear clean and tidy clothes: Muslim women must cover their 'awrah, but they may not cover their face, feet and hands. In this case, the hair should be hidden under clothing. Men do not need to cover their heads.
  • Observe the time of this or that prayer.
  • Turn towards the qibla, the shrine of the Kaaba, which is located in Saudi Arabia, Mecca.
  • Lay out a prayer rug, a clean towel, or a sheet.
  • Get into a pose. Women should stand up straight, legs together, and arms along the body. Men should put their feet shoulder-width apart, freely lower their hands, and look down in front of them.
  • Mentally express the intention in the heart to read namaz. Every Muslim should begin such an important matter with sincerity and reverence and with full responsibility approach the intention to perform prayer for the pleasure of the Almighty Lord.

Once all of the above points are completed, the believer can proceed to prayer.

How to read namaz correctly

If the intention is pronounced to oneself, then everything else - the introductory takbir, dua, suras of the Koran, is spoken aloud. Not necessarily in a full voice, perhaps in a whisper, because the situation does not always favor complete unity.

  1. From the position in which you are standing, raise the palms of your hands to your shoulders and say out loud the expression "Allahu Akbar!" This will be the opening takbir. Watch the awrah: the sleeves must not come down. Otherwise, prayer will not be performed.
  2. Fold your arms crosswise at chest level. Place your right hand on top. Read Surah Al-Fatiha.
  3. Bow at the waist. Remember, men should bow lower than women and look down at their feet. Place your hands on your knees, but do not clasp them.
  4. Return to the starting position.
  5. Make a bow to the earth and say the phrase "Allahu Akbar" at the same time. To do this, kneel down, then lean on your palms and elbows and touch the ground with your nose and forehead. At the same time, rest your toes on the ground.
  6. With the same words, move to a sitting position and say the phrase "Subhanallah."
  7. Again, bow to the ground and at the same time say the phrase "Allahu Akbar."
  8. Return to the starting position in order to make the second rak'ah.
  1. Begin, as at the very beginning, by reading Surah Al-Fahita. You can choose the words of dhikr, read any small sura.
  2. Now bow to the waist and to the ground, as was the case with the first rak'ah.
  3. Sit on your feet so that your palms are on your knees, and both legs are turned to the right side. Thus, you will not sit on your feet, but on the floor. In this position, say Dua Attahiyyat. After, if you perform Fajr prayer, say the end of the prayer.

If you are reading a prayer, which consists of three or four rak'ahs, then after the dua, change your position: get up, stand up straight and do the next rak'ahs. Then Muslims can turn to Almighty Allah in a free form in any language with prayers and requests for personal. The Lord will surely hear you after prayer and help you.
