Becoming on the path of faith and righteousness is a serious step for many people. If you are a Muslim, then according to religious customs, you must do five times a day prayer - namaz.
Instructions
Step 1
Remember when to perform namaz. It seems not so easy to find the time to pray five times a day. In Muslim countries, they take a break from work specifically so that believers can pray. In a secular country, not everyone will take a break for prayer with understanding, however, a person with firm faith should not be stopped by such trifles. The first prayer, called Fajr, occurs between dawn and dawn. The second prayer, Zuhr, is held in the afternoon. Asr - before sunset, Maghreb - at dusk, after sunset, Isha - with the onset of darkness. Prayers cannot be performed at the moment when the Sun is at its zenith, during sunset, as well as between sunrise and before it rises to the height of a spear …
Step 2
Prepare to perform namaz. Before praying, you need to do a few compulsory steps. First, perform ablution, partial or total. In any case, you should not pray sweaty or stained; you need to choose a clean place for prayer. It is not necessary to perform namaz in the mosque, you can even pray outside if there is a place suitable for prayer. The person performing the prayer should be dressed in clean clothes that cover the ankles. You cannot pray drunk, although in Islam alcohol is strictly prohibited at any time. You need to face the Kaaba, which is located in Mecca. Therefore, before starting namaz, use a compass to determine in which direction the holy city for Muslims is located.
Step 3
Remember the number of rak'ahs for each prayer. This is the order of words and actions in prayer. In each prayer, the number of rak'ahs is different. In the first prayer you need to perform 2 rak'ahs. In the second, third and fifth - 4. In the fourth prayer, Maghreb, you need to perform 3 rak'ahs. You can learn more about the text of the prayers from the holy book of the Koran.
