    What times of day to Muslims pray? (OP)


    Jews have always prayed three times a day:

    Shakharit - Morning Prayers 30-45 Minutes (Some as long as an hour)

    Minkha - Afternoon Prayers (About 10-15 minutes)

    Maariv - Prayers after Dark (About 20 minutes)

    On the Saturday, most morning prayers will be about from 9am-1pm or so. And we pray 4 times on Shabbat.

    On Yom Kippur we pray basically all day straight with five prayer sessions which go for so long they overlap lol.

    So the question is: How many times do Muslims pray? Do must Muslims observe these prayers? How long are the prayers usually?

    So the awnser is... at 13.
    what is bar Mivah?! what if they didn't have it at the age of 13?! is it still a must for them bcz they are 13?

    You automatically become a bar-mitzvah at 13... some families arrange it so there children during saturday services can read verses from the torah in front of the congregation, some have a party for them when hey turn 13.

    Its irelevant what you do for them at 13, when they turn this age, they become old enough to be accountable for there actions in G-d's view. Therefore they are obligated to fast on Yom-Kippur.

    you should know that there are times when women are exempt from prayers and fast.... I believe soon after birth a woman would be exempt from prayers until cessation.......however fast would have to be made up at a later time

    It's like Muslim 'aqil baligh' (reaching age of puberty) for Shafiite (which I'm following) usually 15 for boys and 10 for girls. But still depend on when they reached their puberty.

    Re: What times of day to Muslims pray?

    peace be to all,

    One question that wasn't answered is time...

    The time it takes to make any salaah (prayer) is variant. It all depends on the length of the Surah (Chapters of Quran) being recited.

    For example:
    Praying fajr, 2 rakaah fard (mandatory)... would take only 5 minutes if you were to recite short surahs found at the end of the Quran.

    It could easily be 30 minutes if you recite longer surahs... which are found in the begining of the Quran.

    Peace,
    Hamid

    I think, for people who rushing to save time.... they could do 1 min per rakaah (like reading Al Fatihah only)!

    Re: What times of day to Muslims pray?

    If your in that big of a rush... might as well not pray then... cause thats not a salaah... "thats a bird pecking the ground"

    However, I don't advise people not to pray... but pray so that it COUNTS...

    My imaam once told me... 1/10th of our salaah is accepted because of our wandering minds... so if your not even trying and rushing.. whats the point?

    Ma'salaama,

    I've seen many people doing this 'pecking' during rush hours because, people tend to leave 'Asr prayer because they might be stucked on the road from 4.00 PM up to 8.00 PM (Asr prayer usually between 4.20 - 7.15 PM). Thanks to Allah, my office have a 'musalla' (prayer room) and it only takes 30 mins to travel back to home.

    I remember seeing that in one of the movies, a kid is reading parts from the Torah in front of others... but i still think it'll be very hard on them not to eat for a whole day in that age...

    another two questions if you don't mind..
    the very small thing that you put on top of your head when you are reading Torah.. what is it and what is purpose of it?

    when you are done praying, is it a must for you to wear white shirt that has threads coming out for it?! and what is the purpose of it..?

    Thanks

    it leads to the same direction --> Ka'ba...

    any way.. Jews direction is completely the opposite of ours since they do not face Al-Aqssa mosque.

    when he says Jerusalem, he is pointing at the wailing wall... so basically they pray facing that wall and the Aqssa Mosque is completely behind their back...

    if i'm wrong מדינת ישׂראל, please correct me..

    Re: What times of day to Muslims pray?

    The throne of Allah is so big that even if u took everything in the earth and streatched it out... it would be like looking for a drop of water in the ocean.

    what the brother said is true.. the throne of Allah is above the kabaah... but his throne is so big it covers everything. Also mentioned is that the angels make tawaaf (circle the kabaah) in the heavens above the kabaah..

    What actually goes on.. and how it goes on... Only Allah knows of the unseen.

    peace n blessings,
    Hamid

    as far as my understanding... Allah knows best... Im guessing the kabbah is below the throne.. but its location marks the center of His throne.

    Jews have been praying towards Jerusalem before there was an 'Al-Asqa Mosque" and before there was a "Quran" for that matter.

    It would be good to ask all of these questions in the actual "Q/A Judaism" thread guys!

    Re: What times of day to Muslims pray?



    If possible, please provide evidence for the statement that the Ka'bah "marks the centre of the Throne of Allaah". And just to clarify one point, the angels have their own Ka'bah in the heavens, as mentioned in the following narrations:
    The Prophet saws - What times of day to Muslims pray? (Peace & Blessings of Allaah be upon Him) said, described the Much-Frequented House (al-Bayt al-Ma‘moor) in the seventh heaven: "Then I was taken up to the Much-Frequented House: every day seventy thousand angels visit it and leave, never returning to it again, another [group] coming after them." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Fath, no. 3207).

    Ibn 'Abbas and others said: "Allah sent down the Qur'an at one time from al-Lawh al-Mahfuz to Bayt al-'Izzah in the first heaven, then it was revealed to the Messenger of Allah icon1 1 - What times of day to Muslims pray? in stages according to events over twenty-three years." (Tafseer Ibn Katheer, 4/529)

    Lastly, as mentioned above, please keep the Q&A about Judaism in its respective thread.
