Salat (Prayer)
The importance of prayer in Islam is great as it is the foremost duty of Muslims and one of the pillars on which the structure of Islam stands. It distinguishes Muslims from non-Muslims. The Holy Prophet, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam, said:
"What stands between a man and disbelief is the abandonment of prayer."
"Know that among your duties, prayer is foremost."
The object of prayer is to remember Allah. That is why prayer was dearest to the Prophet, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam, as he said:
"He who gives up prayer has indeed disbelieved."
It is also important not to pray carelessly as the Quran says:
"Woe to praying ones who are heedless of their prayers." [Al-Ma'un 107:4-5]
Praying five times a day is compulsory. Prayer consists of recitation of the Holy Quran and glorification of Allah accompanied by various body postures such as standing, bowing, prostrating, and sitting. Through these postures, Muslims express submission, adoration, and humility to Allah. The Prophet Muhammad, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam said:
"You should worship Allah as if you see Him; because though you don't see Him, He surely sees you."
Prayer protects one from sins and shameful deeds. Prayer purifies a person and brings him closer to Allah. The Quran says:
"Establish prayer, for prayer restrains from shameful and unjust deeds." [Al-'Ankabut 29:45]
And last : how can you proud that you are Muslim and you don't even pray
don't (establish Salah)
Some of us when Ramadhan arrived we do fasting and still don't Pray, Let ask our selves how can we skip second pillars of Islam and jump to the forth one and aspect
every thing is fine , you become 'Kafir' without known your self ,
cristian do bealive what they bealive and worship whom ever they worship Once aweek and every 25th of December , In Islam is dff and you do know that , Worship Allah through your life and don't choose "Ibaadah"
Prayer take not more than 5 min , you stil can't do it , imagine If Nabii Muhammad never ask Allah to reduced numbers of prayer to 5 times rather than 50 what would happen today you don't have 5 min to talk to your "Allah" 5 min x 5 prayer a day equal to 25 min , in 24hours - 25 minute
you have 23 hours and 35 min remain .....
If you have got a chance to check this blog and you stil don't pray I want to remind you as I remind my self that Allah (SW) is most forgiviness, Go and Purify your self and establish prayer
