My Prayer: A Step-by-Step Guide

Learn the proper way to perform Salah (prayer) in Islam with this comprehensive guide for both men and women.

The Importance of Salah (Prayer)

Salah (Prayer) is one of the fundamental pillars of Islam. It was the first act of worship that was made obligatory by Allah ﷻ and it is the last thing to be taken away from the religion. When it perishes, Islam will perish.

Its obligation was revealed directly to the Prophet ﷺ, during his ascension to the heaven and it was made obligatory upon every sane, adult Muslim. Salah is the first action that a believer will be questioned about, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

"The first act that the slave will be accountable for on the Day of Judgement will be prayer. If it is good, then the rest of his acts will be good. And if it is deficient, then the rest of his acts will be deficient".
