• Ubadah bin Samit (raa) reported Allah’s Messenger (sas) as saying:
If one has made ablution in and excellent manner, and then has
stood up for prayer, and has completed bowing and prostrating
and has recited in it the prayer says to him, “May Allah preserve
you as you have preserve me.” Then it ascends toward heaven
enveloped in light and brightness; the gates of heaven are opened
for it until it reaches the presence of Allah (swt), and it intercedes
with him for the one who performed it.
• A PRAYER DURING THE EARLY PARTS
• The prophet (sas) said; When the person perform a prayer during
the early parts of it’s prescribe time period, his prayer ascends
toward heaven as a light until it reaches the throne, and there it
ask forgiveness for that person until the day of resurrection,
saying, ‘O Allah, preserve him as he preserve me.

5. • PERFORMS A PRAYER OUTSIDE ITS TIME PERIOD

• He said: “I never missed the evening congregational prayer. But once a guest came to my house and I
remained in his company until late.
• I went out, looking for any mosque in the City of Basra at which I could catch the congregational
(evening) prayer, but to no avail.
• The people had all prayed and gone home. I returned to my house, saying to my self, ‘It is reported in
tradition that congregational prayer is twenty-seven times more excellent than individual prayer.
• “So I prayed the evening prayer twenty seven times over and then slept.
• I saw in the dream that I was with a group of people who were racing on horses, and I was also racing
with them on my horse but I was falling down behind them.
• I kicked my horse to catch up with them but I could not.
• One of them (the riders) turned toward me and said, ‘Do not urge your horse, for you will not be able to
catch up with us.
• “I said, Why not?” He replied,
• ‘We prayed evening in congregational and you prayed it alone!
• “Therefore, I learned a lesson and was deeply grieved.” (Al-Kaba’r p.30)

7. • I AM BLIND AND LIVE AT A DISTANCE
• Amr bin Um Maktum (raa) said: O messenger of Allah there are
many poisonous creatures and wild animals in Madina and I am
blind and live at a distance, therefore do I have permission to pray
in my house?
• The prophet (sas) asked: “Do you hear the Adhan?” he replied:
yes,
• the prophet (sas) said: “Then respond to it you have no such
permission. (Abu Dawood)
• WHO IS THE NEIGHBOR OF A MOSQUE?
• Ali ibn Abi Talib (raa) said: “There is no prayer for the neighbor of
a mosque except in the mosque.” When he was asked, who is the
neighbor of a mosque? He replied: anyone who hears the Adhan.

8. • HE SHOULD DO IT EVEN IF HE HAS TO CREEP OR CRAWL
• Rabi bin Khaitam, even though half of his body had become paralyzed
due to stroke, used to come to the prayer supported by two people.
• Then he was told: “You are an invalid and you have permission to pray at
home.”
• He replied: “That is what you are saying, but the caller of the prayer is
saying “come to prayer, come to success.”
• Therefore, anyone who can respond to it, he should do it even if he has
to creep or crawl (to the mosque), should do it. [Al-Kaba’r p.31]
• THE MEANING OF “UNMINDFUL IN PRAYER”
• Sa’d bn Abi Waqqas (raad) said; “I asked Allah’s Mesgr. (sas) about the
meaning of “Unmindful” (neglected) and he replied: it is delaying it (the
prayer) up to the end of its prescribe time.

do your children distract you from remembrance of
Allah. Those who do so, they are the losers.
• THE FIRST THING WHICH WILL BE JUDGED
• The prophet (sas) said; “The first thing which will be
judged among a persons deeds on the day of
resurrection is the prayer. If that is in good order, he
will pass the test and prosper, and if that is defective,
he will fail the test and will be a loser. (Tirmidhi)

10. • THE PEOPLE IN HELL WILL BE ASKED
• "What led you into Hell-Fire?"
• “They will say: "We were not of those who prayed;"
• "Nor were we of those who fed the needy;"
• "But we used to talk vanities with vain talkers;"

[the believer and nonbeliever] is prayer, if anyone abandoned it he
become an infidel.”

•Qur’an 5:6 “O you who
believe! When you prepare
for prayer wash your faces
and your hands (and arms) to
the elbows; rub your heads
(with water); and (wash) your
feet to the ankles. If ye are in
a state of ceremonial impurity
bathe your whole body.
CHRISTIAN IN PRAYER / WITHOUT
ABLUTION
• BUT CONTRADICT IN THE BIBLE:
• Exodus 40:31-32 And Moses and
Aaron and his sons wash their hands
and their feet thereat: when they
went into the tent of the
congregation, and when they come
near unto the altar, they washed: as
the lord commanded Moses.

thy feet: for the place where
thou stands Is Holy ground.

would remain upon him. He said: that is
how it is with the five times daily prayer,
through them Allah washes away the
sin”. (Abu Hurairah- S. Al-Bukahari)
• The five times daily prayer, and the
Jumu’ah to Jumu’ah (Friday prayer) are
an expiation for what is between them,
as long as one is not guilty of a major
