The five daily prayers, known as Salah, form one of the fundamental pillars of Islam. These prayers serve as a regular reminder of one's faith and connection to Allah. Performed at dawn (Fajr), noon (Zuhr), mid-afternoon (Asr), sunset (Maghrib), and night (Isha), each prayer has its own specific time window and consists of a set number of units called rak'ahs.
Before praying, Muslims perform a ritual ablution called Wudu to cleanse themselves physically and spiritually. They then face the direction of the Kaaba in Mecca and recite verses from the Quran while performing a series of physical movements, including standing, bowing, and prostrating.
These daily prayers provide Muslims with moments of spiritual reflection, gratitude, and seeking guidance throughout their day, helping to maintain a constant awareness of their faith in their daily lives.
