Importance of Fasting
In the linguistic sense, "Sawm" means holding back, and it is derived from the verb "saama" which means to restrain oneself. In the technical sense (or Islamic perspective), it is worshipping Allah 3 by restraining oneself from food and drink, marital relations, and anything that breaks the fast from dawn until the sun has disappeared.

Salah

The salah contains many acts of worship such as standing, bowing, prostrating, reciting the Noble Qur’an, saying “Subhaan Allah, supplicating, saying “Allahu Akbar, saying Alhamdu lillah and the salah is found in the teachings of all the messengers

The linguistic meaning of “salah”: supplication,

The meaning of “salah” in the Islamic perspective: worshiping Allah with specific sayings and actions it starts with the saving “Allahu Akbar” and finishes with the saying “As-salaamu alaykum

Importance of salah

The salah is the second pillar of Islam, and it is obligatory on every single sane Muslim who is above the age of puberty regardless of whether they are male or female. Whoever leaves it has disbelieved in accordance with the saying of the Prophet “Between a man and shirk and disbelief is the abandonment of the salah,”

This hadeeth is sufficient in showing the importance of the salah. This is used as a proof by many scholars to say that someone who leaves the salah out of negligence and laziness is kufr (disbelief) even if the person affirms that the salah is obligatory. The scholars do not consider that leaving any act of worship is kufr as they do for the salah. The salah is the supporting pillar of the religion and whoever leaves it has destroyed his religion. The command has occurred to establish the salah and this means giving it due attention and carefully guarding its performance at its appointed time – in many aayah of the Noble Qur’an. From them is the saying of Allah:

  • إن الصلاة كَانَتْ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ كِتَابَا مَّوْقُونا )
“Verily, the prayer is enjoined on the believers at fixed hours. and His saying 3:

حافظوا على الصلوات والصلاة الوسطى وقولوا الله قانتي فإن حلتُم فَرجَالاً أَو ركباناً فَإِذَا أَنتُمْ

فَاذْكُرُوا اللهَ كَمَا عَلَّمَكُم مَا لَمْ تَكُونُوا تَعْلَمُونَ ))

Salah

In this aayah is an explanation that the Muslim must perform the salah in its correct time and he must not delay it even at the time of fear, travel or illness. The Muslim must perform the salah in any way according to the best of his ability: standing, sitting, or lying on his side. The salah does not stop being an obligation upon a Muslim, except when he loses his decision-making capacity due to being senile or insane. It also stops being an obligation at the time of menstruation and postpartum bleeding for women,

There are many Qur’anic verses that encourage the establishment of the salah and explain that it is the reason for the worshipper’s success in this world and the Hereafter. From these are His statement.

Indeed whosoever purifles himself (by avoiding polytheism and accepting Islamic Monotheism) shall achieve success, and remembers (glorifies) the Name of his Lord (worships none but Allah), and prays (five compulsory prayers and Nawafil additional prayers).

And His saying:

قد افلح المؤمنون الذين لهم في صلاحية في شغول کا

Successful indeed are the believers. Those who offer their Salat (prayers) with all solemnity and full submissiveness.”

And He sed

“And those who strictly guard their (five compulsory congregational) Salawat (prayers) (at their heed stated hours). These am indeed the inheritors. Whe shall inherit the Firdaus (Paradise). The shall dwell therein forever.”

Likewise, not establishing the salah is awson about the people of the Heltfre for endering the Helfie when He said

What has caused you to enter Hell? They will say: “We were not of these who used to offer their Salat iprayers)”

Among the things that Indicate the importance of the satah is the fit that it was made obligatory in the heavens, on the Night Journey and the Ascension to the Heavens, with Allah Hevealing to His Prophet it directly without any intermediary. All the other

acts of worship were prescribed on Earth by Allahs Revelation via the angel Jibreel

Gabrieli blessings of peace be upon him.

The salali was the fist act of werihip to be made obligatury. It was enjoined in Makkan

before the migration to Midine while the frit of the slamic legislations regarding acts

of worships and begal sulings were made obligatory after the migration
