Muslim prayer with English subtitle translation.
A Muslim is obliged to pray at least five times a day: once before sunrise; at noon; once in the afternoon; at sunset and once at night. During prayer he or she is to focus and meditate on God by reciting these words in order to reaffirm and strengthen the bond between creator and creation. This has the effect of guiding the soul to peace and truth. Such meditation is intended to help maintain a feeling of spiritual peace, in the face of whatever challenges work, social or family life may present.
The five daily acts of peaceful prayer are to serve as a template and inspiration for conduct during the rest of the day, transforming it, ideally, into one single and sustained meditation: even sleep is to be regarded as but another phase of that sustained meditation.
"Salat is the key to Paradise"
- Prophet Muhammed (Peace Be Upon Him)
