Salah refers to the five daily prayers that structure a Muslim’s day and provide a direct link to Allah.
What It Involves
- Regularity:
Muslims observe five daily prayers at prescribed times—dawn, noon, mid-afternoon, sunset, and night—ensuring they remain in constant remembrance of Allah throughout the day. - Purpose:
Salah is an act of worship that purifies the heart, instills discipline, and reinforces a Muslim’s reliance on Allah. The Qur’an instructs:
“And establish prayer and give zakah…”
— Qur’an 2:43
Why It Matters
Each prayer is a moment to step away from daily challenges and reconnect with the Creator. Through Salah, believers cultivate mindfulness, gratitude, and a sense of inner peace.
