10. HOW TO FERFORM
SHALAT???
1. Face the direction of Mecca (Qiblah):
This is an organizational point decreed by God in 2:125(Surah Al
Baqarah). God wills that all submitters must face the same direction
when they observe the contact prayers. In the U.S.A., the direction is
slightly South of East.
2. The Intention
In your own language, secretly or audibly, state your intention that
you are about to observe the Contact Prayer. Remember to state the
time (Dawn, Noon, Afternoon, Sunset, or Night).

11. 3. Raise your hands to the sides of your face:
• Your thumbs touch your ears, and the palms of your
hands face forward.
4. Say "Allahu Akbar".
As you raise your hands to the sides of your face, then move
them down to your sides in a continuous motion, you say,
"Allahu Akbar" (God is Great). This opens up the prayer. You
are in contact with your Creator.

12. 5. The Standing Position:
You are now standing with you arms resting naturally at your side.
Some people place the left hand on the stomach, and the right
hand on top of the left hand. Either position is correct - you may
place your hands on your stomach while standing, or you may let
your arms hang down by your sides.

13. 6. Recite Al-Fatihah
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful (1)
Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the
Worlds (2) Most Gracious, Most Merciful (3) Master
of the, Day of Judgment. (4) Thee do we worship, and
Thine aid we seek. (5) Show us the straight way. (6)
The way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed Thy
Grace, Those whose (portion) is not wrath and who
go not astray. (7)

14. 7. The bowing position (Rukoo)
After reciting "The Key" while standing, you bow down
into the position of Rukoo`. As shown in the figure, you
bow down from the waist, keep the knees straight, and
place your hands on your knees. Your eyes look at a
point about 2 feet in front of you.
As you move from the standing position to the bowing
position you say, "Allahu Akbar".
While bowing you say "Subhaana Rabbiyal Azeem" or
"Glory be to God, the Great" or "God be glorified" for
short.

15. 8. Stand Up
•As you stand up from the bowing position to the standing position you say,
"Sami`Allahu Liman Hamidah" or "God responds to those who praise Him".
•You stay in the standing position only a second, then you fall prostrate. As
you go from the standing position to the prostration position you say, "Allahu
Akbar".
9. The Prostration Position (Sujood)
From the standing position you go down on your knees, then place your
forehead on the floor about 1-2 feet in front of your knees.
During prostration you say, "Subhaana Rabbiyal A`laa" or “Glory be to God, the
Most High” or "God be glorified" for short.

16. 10. The Sitting Position
As you sit up from the prostration position, you say, "Allahu
Akbar." You remain in the sitting position only for a second,
then you go down for the second prostration.
As you go down for the second prostration you say, "Allahu
Akbar."
During the second prostration you say, "Subhaana Rabbiyal
A`laa" or “Glory be to God, the Most High” or "God be
glorified" for short. Once you complete the second
prostration, you have completed one full unit (Rak`ah).
