Asalam walekum

i hope ramadan fasting is going well with you all.

I am praying the 5 prayers every day

Can some one give me some tips on how to learn the words fast. I am so confused right now using the paper to do the prayers and i can't give my full dedication to the LORD :heated:

What is the most important part in the rakas.

i hope some one can guide me.

Face the Qiblah (toward Mecca), and make sure you’re in a clean area, now you are about to start one of the following prayers: 1st prayer (Subh), 2nd prayer (Dhuhr), 3rd (Asr), 4th (Maghrib), 5th (Ishaa).


Standing, you will start the prayer raising both hands up close to your ears and say "Allahu Akbar" (God is Most Great). (Look at the picture on the side).



Then put one hand on the top of the other hand between your chest and upper stomach, and start reciting surat “al fatiha”, say “ameen” once you finish it, and then start reciting another small surat (check here to find out more about “al fatiha” and the other “surats”).

Once you finish reciting raise your hands up to the ears, saying "Allahu Akbar." Bow (your hands on your knees, back straight, your face toward the ground, saying three times, "Subhana rabbiyal adheem" (Glory be to my Lord Almighty). This position is called (ruku’). See photo.

Rise back to standing while saying "Sami’a Allahu liman hamidah, Rabbana wa lakal hamd" (God hears those who call upon Him; Our Lord, praise be to You).

Raise hands up, saying "Allahu Akbar" then descend to the ground (see photo), while your face on the ground say three times "Subhana Rabbiyal A'ala" (Glory be to my Lord, the Most High). This position is called “sujud”

Rise to a sitting position (see picture), saying "Allahu Akbar."

Then prostrate back on the ground (this is the second time you do it), while your face on the ground say three times "Subhana Rabbiyal A'ala"

Go here to see the pictures and more explanation inshallah

Allah accept your pray inshallah , Please dont forget me in your pray and duaa jazaka Allah khayiran,

your sister in islam,
btissam

These are the surahs you may want to memorize so that you can recite some of them in your prayer, they’re the shortest in the holy Qur’an, and can be ideal for beginners. The first line is the original Arabic surah (verse), the second line is the transliteration, and finally the 3rd line is the translation according to the effort of some scholars. You can memorize everyday one surah, but the least you should memorize is 2 surahs, the first one is “al-fatihah” and any other surah from below, because you can’t make a prayer without at least “al-fatihah” and another surah. So your first efforts should be on “al-fatihah”, then choose the easiest other surah to memorize, in one week you can memorize all these seven surahs with no problems. If you have any question let us know on the e-mail at the bottom of this page. Good luck!
