In Islam, namaz and dua, prayers, are created and called for conversations with God. Thus, a person touches the Almighty, the sky and grows spiritually. According to the orders of the Almighty, every Muslim is obliged to know and read namaz, the dua and sura are created to help in worldly and spiritual affairs.
When is it customary to read Islamic prayers?
In the Islamic religion, one of the most important actions is the reading of prayers. It is believed that prayer is the connection of every person with God, therefore Muslims try to read it more often. Everyone wants to be as close as possible to the Almighty, to Allah. The Prophet Muhammad said that the best act of man is prayer. Namaz is read five times a day, it cleanses the Muslim from sins, strengthens the spirit and faith, and also protects from future fall and sinful thoughts. People of the Islamic religion firmly believe that the first thing they will be asked at the Last Judgment is whether the prayer was read in time.
According to the accepted rules and traditions, bathing is performed before prayer. Only after this does the reader appear before the Lord. In the first, morning prayer, he praises and honors the Creator, magnifies, affirms His irrefutable right to worship. The reader prays to the Creator, asks Him to show him the right path, and as evidence of the greatest fidelity and complete humility, he bows to Allah to the earth.
Muslim prayers are sung exclusively in Arabic, only this language is considered the language of Revelation, only in it does a person have the right to speak with God. Also, according to the requirements, prayer is read five times a day.
Here is a list of prayers that must be read in the Islamic religion every day:
- At dawn, when the sun only touches the sky, the first, morning prayer is recited. It is called Irtange;
- Exactly in the middle of the day, when the sun is at its zenith, the second, midday prayer is read. It is called Oyla;
- Between the middle of the day and sunset, in the evening, when the sun begins to move to the horizon, the third, evening prayer is read. It is called Ikende;
- At sunset, at a time when the sun begins to go beyond visibility, the fourth, late prayer is read. She is called Ahsham;
- At dusk, when the sun has already gone, the last, fifth, night prayer is read. It is called Yastu.
This rhythm is the rhythm of life of every Muslim, his indestructible duty. He has the right to read namaz in any place, in a mosque, at home, at work, on the street, in the office, it does not matter. Azan is obligatory before prayer - this is a call to prayer.
In addition to the above, there are also conditions that Muslims must observe:
- Ritual purity. Before each prayer, the reader must check whether the place is clean and whether he himself is clean. In case of pollution, wash the room and wash yourself. Ablution before each prayer is also obligatory;
- Qibla. During the reading of the prayer, the Muslim should be facing towards the Muslim shrine of the Ka'ba;
- Clothing. Muslim clothing should be completely clean, especially from the sewage and wool of pigs and dogs.For men and women, the aurat must be covered, for men it is only a part of the body, from the navel to the knees. In women, this whole body is completely, except for the face, hands and feet;
- Sincerity and honesty. Every Muslim has the right to read namaz only with an open heart and sincere desire, otherwise Allah will punish him.
Reason is also important while reading, it should be crystal clear and clear. All psychotropic and strong substances are strictly prohibited in the Islamic religion.
What should every Muslim know?
In the Islamic religion, there are certain prayers that every Muslim should know. So it is in other religions. People learn them by heart and use them for their intended purpose at the time allotted for this. In Islam, prayers are called namaz, dua, surah and are taken from the Koran. Namaz is read five times a day and is a must for Muslims around the world. A specific time has been approved for each prayer, and wherever a person is, if he is Muslim, he is obliged to read the prayer in the allotted time for this.
Dua and sura, on the other hand, are prayers that are designed to help a person with something. Suppose there is a dua for healing from an illness, a dua for attracting wealth, a dua against the evil eye, a sura to travelers, a sura for parents, etc.
The main Muslim prayers are prayer. Below I will list the fundamental duas and suras that will help a person in life.
For good luck and money
Prayer to Allah for good luck and money must be read in the language of Revelation, that is, in Arabic. From time to time, a prayer is held and read in the Hadith Sharif, helping all Muslims to get rid of debts, return the flow of funds to the family, and improve luck.
For the convenience of readers, we will give a prayer for good luck and money as it should be read in Arabic:
“Allahume is falikal-isbahi wa jailelleya sekenen vas-shamsa val-kamara husbanen ikdi annid deina wa anini minel-fakri v amtini bi-sami wa basari va kuvveti fi sabile.”
Dua is translated into Russian as follows:
“Allah Almighty gives us sunrise and sunset every morning, so that we can wake up and work, and then rest. For the separation of day and night, Allah gave us the moon and the sun, and now demands from them. Oh, Gracious Creator, give me strength, give me will and spirit, so that I can earn money to pay off my debts, so that I am not poor and can live in prosperity. I will become a Slave in Your path, I will serve You faithfully, with my eyes and ears, with all my strength. (Malik, Dua, 495). ”
This is a free translation especially for those who have just converted to Islam and do not yet know the language so well as to understand all the prayers. After all, as was written above, for reading prayers you need a crystal clear mind, and for this it is important to understand what you are reading.
Protection
Muslims use both a dua and a sura to protect themselves from the evil eye and other troubles. But in addition to prayer, there are also recommendations for protection from the evil eye.
Among the recommendations are the following:
- The beauty of a person must be carefully hidden. That is why Muslim women and men so carefully cover their bodies with clothes. If a Muslim woman is not dressed according to Sharia, she does not comply with the instructions of the Almighty. If she reveals something more than her face, hands and feet, then she is easily exposed to the evil eye;
- Every day morning and evening, one should read the dhikr and prayers of the Prophet Muhammad, as well as prayers 5 times a day;
- Children, brothers, sisters and wives should not be in places where they may be subject to the evil eye. That is why young children and their mothers are often involved in the home and household, so as not to go outside once again.
According to the legend of this dua, an angel came to the Prophet Muhammad, at the time of his grief. The sadness was the illness of the children, Hussein and Hassan. They were ill because of the evil eye. Then the angel told the Prophet effective words that immediately lifted them to their feet.
The words of prayer from corruption and the evil eye in Islam in Arabic are as follows:
"Alahumma for sultanil azimi wa beckoned kadimi hall vazhil karimi valyal Kalimati ttammati wa daavatil mustajabati afil Hasa-na va Husayna (the name of the patient should be mentioned here) min anfusil zinni va ayunil insi."
Free translation into Russian for a better understanding of prayer:
“Almighty Allah protects a man from corruption and the evil eye, for a man bows low, serves him as his whole being. Protect, O Almighty (name of man), from evil eyes that are envious and full of anger. As the angel preserves and protects, so you guard and protect us. ”
In addition to protection from the evil eye, there are also special duas and suras to protect against various life troubles. The dua below should be read three times in a row. This prayer was given by the Prophet Muhammad to a Sahaba who complained about a scorpion bite. He said that it was difficult for him to defend himself and the Prophet wrote him the words that he had to read three times in a row.
In Arabic, the words are as follows:
"Aguzu bi-Kalimati Llakhi-t-tamati min sharri ma haliak."
Translation of words into Russian is as follows:
“I defend myself with these words, with the perfect and great words of Allah, from all evil and all troubles that He created and that surround me.”
There are a large number of Muslim prayer amulets of protection; the described option is one of many.
Prayers before exams for luck and luck (Islam)
For each student, exams are a great stress. Even if he knows the subject perfectly and learned the tickets perfectly, the fear of disgrace, not passing, not answering the question, is confused not only by the student, but also by all his relatives. Often, good or bad, we will hand over the subject depends not only on knowledge, but also on self-confidence. You must agree that a higher rating will be given to a self-confident student who answers questions clearly, has a cold mind about the task, than one who mumbles, gets lost, thinks for a long time, etc. Therefore, it should be remembered that the main thing is to learn in time, carefully prepare and not doubt your own strengths. Believers have another plus - their faith and prayers. Before the exam, you can read several duas or suras.
Below we list a few duas and suras that can be used before exams to calm, relax, clear the mind, and bring luck and good luck.
The first prayer brings success, it can be used in any business, it sounds like this:
“Rabbi Yassir wa la tuassir. Rabbi Tamim Bil Khair. ”
Translation into Russian is as follows:
“O Almighty Allah! I am starting this business and I ask you not to complicate it, ease my way. My lord! I pray you, grant me a quick and good completion of the written. "
The second prayer is intended to help in the work that has already begun. It helps a person to find new ways to solve it, helps to find other people who are ready to help speed up or facilitate the process. It sounds as follows:
“Allahumma khyr lee va-htar lee. Ba la taclini ala ichtiyari. ”
The meaning of the words:
“Almighty Allah! Make me worthy of completing a difficult task, make me a good path for me. Do not leave me alone with difficulties. ”
The third prayer helps clarify the mind and facilitate a difficult conversation, unleashes the language. It can be used not only before exams, but also before complex business meetings and interviews. Dua words:
"Rabbish-shrahli sadri wa yassir lee amri wa-hlul ukdatan min lisani, yafkahu kavli."
Value: My lord! Open my heart and soul to make the right decisions, make my work easier for me. Untie the knot in my tongue so that the words for others sound clear and easily accepted.
And the last prayer, drawn up by us in the article, allows us to increase the flow of knowledge. It helps to remember everything that has been read and learned, helps timid people who know the subject well, but because of natural modesty they cannot answer the question correctly. It sounds like this:
“Rabbi Yassir wa la tuassir. Sahhil aleina bi fadlikya ya muyassir."Rabbi Zidna Ilman wa Fahman Nafian wa Tamim Bil Khairin."
Value: My Lord Allah! Make it easier for me to complete this task, do not complicate it. Thanks to Your generosity, I can use my mind clean and open. My Lord, increase my knowledge, understanding, grant me a favorable conclusion to the intended!
Muslim prayer for bedtime reading
In addition to the last prayer, which should be read at dusk, there are also duas and suras that improve sleep and help for the day to come. There are a large number of them, so we will give only a couple in the article.
For a good sleep, Muslims recite the following prayer:
AlhamduliLlyahi allazi ahya-na bada ma amata-na wa ilyai-hi-n-nushur!
It is translated as follows:
Praise be to Allah! He revived us after mortification, it is to Allah that we will be returned at the end of life!
Also, before going to bed, there is a certain rite that every Muslim should perform. Like the Prophet Muhammad, a person is obligated to sleep three times before going to bed and then read three suras, these are 112 Al-Ihlas (“Cleansing the Faith”), 113 “Al-Falyak” (“Dawn”), 114 “An “Us” (“People”).
With the help of these suras, a person will be protected from shaitan until the very morning. Repeating after the Prophet, you should wipe your own body three times from head to toe after reading the prayers.
