Prayer is a religious service, especially a regular one, at which people gather in order to pray together.
Prayer (salah) is the second pillar of Islam. It is a prescribed liturgy performed five times a day (preferably in a mosque) and oriented toward Mecca.
Learning Salät (Namaz)
Salät is the Muslim form of formal worship. Muslims offer Salät five times a day. This page helps you learn how to offer Salät. Various parts of salät are given below. Click the name of the part to go there. Below is a list of offerings from this page.
A formal Prayer consists of units. One unit is a rak'ah and more than one units are raka'ät. A formal Islamic Prayer is 2, 3 or 4 raka'ät depending on the time of Prayer and the kind of Prayer.
There are two sajdahs in each rak'ah. Qa'da is performed in every second rak'ah and the last rak'ah. Only tashahhud is recited in a sitting (Qa'da) which is not the last one.

Khushoo means being completely solemn, submissive and humble to Allah during our performance of prayer. The place of khushoo is the heart (center of spiritual intellect), and its effects are manifested in the physical body
It refers to highest qualitative state of heart in performing daily prayers
Piety is a great virtue that bears a lofty status. It sustains life,
which becomes unbearable in its absence; in fact, a life void of
piety is inferior even to the life of an animal. There is no
righteousness and wellbeing for a slave without Taqwaa (piety).
It is a noble treasure whose possessor is awarded many
honorable gems, abundant goodness, noble sustenance, great
victories and kingdoms. It is as if the best rewards of both this
life and the next have been assigned to this single
characteristic!
