Salaat for Beginners (Transliteration and Translation)
Salaat is the arabic name for the obligatory prayers which are performed five times a day.
The five-time prayers become obligatory from the moment a person embraces Islam. This is an extremely important tenet of Islam and has been enjoined with great emphasis in the Holy Quran. It is a form of worship which establishes the link between man and his Creator and Benefactor, Allah. Through Salaat a person communes with his Lord, the Creator and the Sustainer of the Universe.
Just as performing Salaat is obligatory, learning to perform it in the prescribed way is also obligatory - and one should know what he/she is saying to his/her Lord.
All the necessary recitations have been put in the Roman script along with the translation of their meanings into English . It would be a good idea to have your pronunciation of the prayers checked by other Muslims at the first available opportunity.
Before starting the prayer, a person is required to perform "wudhu" (ablution - wash).
The following instructions are included:
Azan (Call to Prayer)
Iqamah (Call to Prayer)
Salaat of Fajr (Morning Prayers)
Salaat of Zuhr (Noon Prayers)
Salaat of Asr (Afternoon Prayers)
Salaat of Maghrib (Evening Prayers)
Salaat of Eisha (Night Prayers)
