Salah (or prayer, plural: Salawaat) has an exalted status in Islam that is unrivaled by any other act of worship. Salah is the Pillar of Islam, on which the religion is firmly established. The Messenger of Allah (S) said: “The head of the matter (religion) is Islam, its pillar is the prayer and its highest peak is Jihad for Allah’s cause” Tirmidhi, Hadith 2616.
Salah constitutes the physical, mental and spiritual submission to Allah which starts by pronouncing “Allah is Great” and ends with the Salam (salutation of peace). It is the concrete proof of our submission to Allah. It fulfils our very purpose of creation. Allah makes it very clear in the Glorious Qur’an that the very purpose for which He has created us is to worship Him throughout our lives. He tells us: “And I have created not the jinn and men except that they should worship Me (Alone). I seek not any provision from them nor do I ask that they should feed Me.” Adh-Dhariyat Surah 51, V.56-57
“So glorify the praises of your Rabb (Lord) and be of those who prostrate themselves (to Him). And worship your Rabb (Lord) until there comes unto you the Hour that is certain.” Al-Hijr Surah 15, V98-99
