Importance of Prayer (Salaah)

Prayer is one of the 5 pillars of Islam. Prayer is what makes us Muslims; it is what makes us different from the disbelievers. As Muslims we must pray 5 times a day. We can’t skip Fajr or pray Fajr late. Sometimes it may be hard to get up in the early morning to pray Fajr, but just remember that you are praying Fajr to please Allah. Remember that if you pray Fajr Insha'Allah, Allah will reward you in the end.

 “The Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) stated that the most virtuous deed is the prayer.”

“Then, there has succeeded them a posterity who have given up As‑Salaah (the prayers) [i.e. made their Salaah (prayers) to be lost, either by not offering them or by not offering them perfectly or by not offering them in their proper fixed times] and have followed lusts. So they will be thrown in Hell”

[Maryam 19:59]

“And perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), and give Zakat, and Irka' (i.e. bow down or submit yourselves with obedience to Allah) along with Ar-Raki'un.”

[Al-Baqarah 2:43]

 “And to perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat)", and to be obedient to Allah and fear Him, and it is He to Whom you shall be gathered.”

[Al-'An`ām 6:72]

 "And as to those who hold fast to the Book (i.e. act on its teachings) and perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), certainly, We shall never waste the reward of those who do righteous deeds."

[Al-'A`rāf 7:170]
