![Jese Leos](https://novel.aroadtome.com/author/jacob-foster.jpg)
Prayer is one of the five pillars of Islam and is an essential part of the life of every Muslim. It is a way to connect with Allah (God) and to express gratitude, supplication, and submission. This guide will provide you with everything you need to know about how to pray in Islam, from the basic steps to the more advanced aspects of prayer.
There are five daily prayers in Islam: Fajr (dawn),Dhuhr (noon),Asr (afternoon),Maghrib (sunset),and Isha (night). Each prayer has a specific time frame in which it must be performed. The following are the basic steps of prayer:
- Wudu: Begin by performing wudu, which is the Islamic ritual ablution. This involves washing your hands, face, arms, and feet.
- Niyyah: Make the intention to pray. This is done by saying, "I intend to pray the [name of the prayer] for the sake of Allah."
- Takbir: Raise your hands to your ears and say, "Allahu Akbar" (Allah is the greatest). This is called the takbir.
- Qiyam: Stand up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Ruku': Bow down until your hands reach your knees. Say, "Subhana Rabbiyal Adheem" (Glory to my Lord, the Magnificent).
- I'tidal: Return to a standing position. Say, "Sami' Allahu liman hamidah" (Allah hears those who praise Him) and "Rabbana laka al-hamd" (Our Lord, all praise is due to You).
- Sujud: Kneel down and place your forehead on the ground. Say, "Subhana Rabbiyal Ala" (Glory to my Lord, the Exalted).
- Jalsa': Sit back on your heels. Say, "Allahu Akbar."
- Second Sujud: Perform a second sujud.
- Tashahhud: Sit cross-legged and say the tashahhud, which is a declaration of faith and a prayer for peace.
- Salam: Turn your head to the right and say, "Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullah" (Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah). Then turn your head to the left and say the same thing.
Once you have mastered the basic steps of prayer, you can begin to explore the more advanced aspects of prayer. These include:
