Prayer

And it is the pillar of religion and the ascension of the believer and his honor, if it is accepted, everything else is accepted, and if it is rejected, everything else is rejected, and by it the souls are purified from filth, as the bodies are purified from impurities by water . The Messenger of Allah pbuhap said, ﴾Allah (exalted is his mentioning) swore by His might not to torture the praying ones and the prostrating ones, and not to frighten them with hellfire on the Day the people are resurrected to the Lord of the worlds .”﴿ So if its time comes do not delay it, because the delay is the beginning of its omission, and it leads to its neglect, the Messenger of Allah pbuhap said, ﴾Whoever locks himself in an obligatory prayer and completes its bowing and prostration and reverence, then glorifies Allah and praises Him until the time is due for the next obligatory prayer, and does not take time off between them, Allah rewards him the reward of the pilgrim, and makes him among the high people .”﴿ And al-Baqir and al-Sadiq pbut said, ﴾You are only rewarded from your prayer as much as you intend from it, so if one wasted it all or neglected its manners, it is turned against him and the face of its owner

will be struck by it .”﴿ And reflect upon the greatness of Allah while you are standing between His hands, and prolong its prostration and its bowing, for it is your gift to the True King, and its reward is greater than it . And whenever you can do not miss the group prayer in mosques, for the virtue of the group prayer is great . And do some of the favored prayers, especially Salat al-Ghufaylah, and the night prayer (Salatul Layl), do not ever leave it for its reward is great, and it is eight rakat and the two rakat of al-Shafa and the one rakat of al-Witir, after each two rakat you say salam, just like the morning prayer except for the rakat of al-Witir, as it is only one rakat . And you can just pray the two rakat of al-Shafa and the rakat of al-Witir .* And it is narrated that whoever wakes before al-Fajr prayer and prays al-Witir and the Nafila of al-Fajr, which is two rakat before al-Fajr prayer, will be rewarded with the reward of the night prayer, so do not miss your chance . Imam Abu Abdullah pbuh said, ﴾A man came to the Prophet pbuhap and said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, does Allah ask about other than the obligatory prayers?’ So he pbuhap said, ‘No,’ so he said, ‘I swear by the One who sent you with the Truth that nothing brings me closer to Allah except for them .’ He pbuhap said, ‘Why?’ He said, ‘Because Allah uglified my creation,’ so the Prophet pbuhap held back, and Gabriel pbuh descended and said, ‘O Muhammad Allah is sending you His salam, and is saying send my salam to My servant so and so, and say to him, ‘Will you not be satisfied if I resurrect you tomorrow among the safe people?’ So he said: ‘O Prophet of Allah, did Allah mention me!?’ He pbuhap said, ‘Yes,’ so he said, ‘By the One who sent you with the Truth, there is nothing that one can do to draw closer to Allah that I will not do .’”﴿ And who among us has no guilt? And who among us does not want to be safe on the Day of Resurrection?
