Salat (Prayer)

About this chapter

Salat covers the five daily obligatory prayers, plus Jumu'ah (Friday prayer), congregational prayer (jama'ah), qada (making up missed prayers), qasr (shortened prayer for travellers), salat al-ayat, namaz-e-janaza (funeral prayer), and the recommended nawafil.

Topics range from determining prayer times and qiblah direction to the conditions of iqamat al-salat (the proper performance of prayer) under each Marja's rulings.
