Topic: Salah



  
 Salah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Salah (also known as "salat", "solat", "solah" and several other spellings) (Arabic: صلاة, Qur'anic Arabic: صلوة) refers to the five daily ritual prayers that Muslims offer to Allah (God).
The Sunnah salah (as with all other Sunnahs) originated from the practice of the Prophet who used to perform more prayers than the obligatory amount.
The salah must be performed in the Arabic language even if the person neither speaks nor understands Arabic (although the dua afterwards need not be in Arabic).

 Discover Islam and Muslims - Salah - Prayer
Salah (Prayer) is the second Pillar of Islam and together with the Shahada is considered the foundations of Islamic Faith.
Muslims perform the salah as a gratitude to God for giving them His favor in whatever form and however small or insignificant.
The salah makes a Muslim remember God every moment of the day and helps him to keep away from committing faults intentionally or unintentionally.

 Salah
If while they were in salah, they heard a verse of prostration from a man who was not in salah with them, they should not prostrate it in the salah, but they should prostrate it after the salah.
Someone who recited a verse of prostration, but did not prostrate [for] it by the time he entered salah, and then recited it [in salah] and prostrated it, the prostration suffices him for both of the recitations.
The minimum recitation which suffices in salah, according to Abu Hanifah, is that which is covered by the word "Qur’an." Abu Yusuf and Muhammad said : No less than three short verses or one long verse is sufficient.

While Salah's father was willing to marry a Jewish woman, he nevertheless continued to affiliate with the strictest strain of Islam.
The Koran, he was told, "requires me to become a shahid, a martyr." But being proficient in the Muslim holy book, Salah challenged the recruiters to find the source of this "teaching." They couldn't.

 Towards a better salah
This knowledge of the fiqh of salah (as well as other acts of worship) is in fact very important, despite the fact that some people neglect it.
According to the Shafi`is and Hanbalis, it is sunnah to raise the hands at four places in the salah: At the first takbir, before ruku`, after ruku`, and when standing for the third rak`ah of a prayer that is more than two rak`ah.
Ibn Sirin and others have mentioned that after this verse was revealed, the Muslims never looked up during their salah, but kept their gaze on the place of sajdah.

Salah Nasser Salim ‘Ali and Muhammad Faraj Ahmed Bashmilah, two Yemeni friends who were living in Indonesia, told Amnesty International that they were separately detained, Salah in Indonesia in August 2003, Muhammad in Jordan in October 2003.
Salah Nasser Salim ‘Ali has a daughter he has never seen, who was born nearly two years ago while he was being detained.
“It is the final injustice that both Muhammad and Salah find themselves imprisoned yet again, this time by the Yemeni authorities — who themselves admit they have no reason for holding them except that their transfer from US detention was conditional on doing so,” said Sharon Critoph.

 Perform Salah Correctly - by Mufti Taqi Usmani
Before they begin their Salah, women should make sure that their whole body, except the face, the hands and the feet, is covered with clothing.
However, should mahram-members of the family be making their Salah with Jama'ah within the house, there is no harm if they join in with them in the Jama'ah.
Unfortunately, we go about performing the cardinal dictates of Salah in a carefree manner following our whims, hardly caring to see that those dictates have to be carried out in the manner they were passed on to us by the Holy Prophet (sallallu alayhi wasallam).

 Stop - Forbidden Limits ... 5/5
This matter is taken lightly by many people, but the Prophet sallallahu alayhe wasallam has strongly warned against it, saying: "Doesn't the one who raises his head before the imam fear that Allah turns his head into a donkey's head?" (Muslim).
This is a serious matter, for the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhe wasallam, said: "A man's salah is not correct until he straightens [makes level] his back during kneeling and prostration." (Abu Dawud).
In another narration by Muslim, he said: "Who ate onion or garlic or leek should not come to our masjid, for the angels are harmed by whatever harms the sons of Adam."(Muslim).

 Prayer (Salah)
If the imam must leave during the salah due to some reason, for instance, he remembers that he is in need of making ablution or he loses his ablution during the salah, then he should appoint another to lead the remainder of the prayer.
This hadith shows that it is correct for one to repeat a salah as a nafl with a congregation even if he has already performed it, individually or with a congregation.
It is preferred for the imam to tum to the right or to the left after the salah and then to leave the place of prayer.

These Prayers are so important that they are the second Pillar of Islam after the Testimony of Faith (“There is no god but God and Muhammad is the Messenger of God”), obligatory for all, and they are the first thing the Muslim will be asked about on Judgment Day.
For a Muslim, his faith is first demonstrated by the five daily ritual Prayers called Salah.
Therefore, if one really believes in Allah, he will show it by his commitment to the five daily Prayers, and these, in turn, will help him to live righteously.
