Thozhugai (Salah) -Tholugai

Salaah or namaz is an obligatory prayer performed by a practising Muslim five times a day. The namaz is performed early in the morning, afternoon, evening, near sunset and late evening. Eachnamaz lasts for between five to 10 minutes, and so cumulatively the prayers take up around 30 minutes in a day. According to the Quran, namaz can be performed at any clean place except bathrooms and graves. The primary purpose of the mosque is to serve as a place where Muslims can come together for prayer, as praying together holds great importance in Islam. 🤲“Through namaz, a Muslim is standing before the sight of Allah and in attendance, submitting to Allah’s will,”😇 Women can’t offer namaz in a Mosque is a myth, Islam allows both men and women to offer namaz at the same place. However, the condition is that women should pray in separate safs or lines formed during praying. “The biggest example of women praying in a mosque is when they go for Haj which is one of our five pillars. Men and Women pray in Masjid Nabuwi, the mosque of Prophet Mohammad,” said Mohammad Irfan, a Delhi-based Maulvi. “There is no segregation between them in Masjid Nabuwi while in other masjids across the world, women pray in separate enclosures.” Friday is considered an auspicious day of the week and even those Muslims who are otherwise not regular with namaz try to attend prayers in mosques or participate in any open congregation. Religious scholars say that “congregation” became an important part of Muslim prayers because in medieval times a lot of emphasis was laid on brotherhood. “This was a religion that stood against slavery and racism. The core message of Islam is universal brotherhood,” Safvi said. “By standing in a congregation, the IMdifferences of status, class and rank disappear. Congregational prayers are a way of strengthening the brotherhood.” Thanks for ur TIME⌚ ASSALAMU ALLAIKUM😊 Jip
