Bandung

The five daily prayers are obligatory acts of worship that Muslims must perform every day throughout their lives.

In Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 43, Allah calls upon His servants to perform prayer and give charity. He says:

وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَآتُوا الزَّكَاةَ وَارْكَعُوا مَعَ الرَّاكِعِينَ

Meaning: “And establish prayer, give zakah, and bow with those who bow [in worship and obedience].” (Quran, Al-Baqarah: 43)

Prayer can also bring many blessings to Muslims. Based on a hadith narrated by Ahmad, from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with them, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) once spoke about prayer and said,

مَنْ حَافَظَ عَلَيْهَا كَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا، وَبُرْهَانًا، وَنَجَاةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يُحَافِظْ عَلَيْهَا لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ نُورٌ، وَلَا بُرْهَانٌ، وَلَا نَجَاةٌ ، وَكَانَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ قَارُونَ، وَفِرْعَوْنَ، وَهَامَانَ، وَأُبَيِّ بْنِ خَلَفٍ

Meaning: “Whoever is diligent in performing it will have light, proof, and salvation on the Day of Judgment. But whoever is not diligent in performing it will have no light, no proof, and no salvation. And on the Day of Judgment, he will be gathered with Qarun, Pharaoh, Haman, and Ubay bin Khalaf.” (Narrated by Ahmad)
