How to Pray

Whilst still in the learning process it is sufficent in each of the positions  to say whatever one can remember from: Glory To God: sub-han-Allah, The Praise is for God: Al-hamdu-lilah, There is no god but Allah: la ilaha il Allah. Learning Surah Fatiha is critical for the prayer. Why not contact us, or Islamwise to arrange a prayer tutorial or workshop?


The opening chapter: Surah Fatihah 

Once memorised, this chapter is a condition of the prayer without it (after learning it) if it left out then the prayer is invalid (except when praying behind another person)
