Salat contact prayers (a few here are still researching this word)

Anything else?

Khutbah

Zakat - contribution towards betterment, purification, increase, charity (basically any kind of charity - be it food, money, knowledge, etc. etc. on the day of harvest; ie. when you recieve it.)

Dawah - missionaring(?), the thing that missionaries do

Hijab - veil (not just head-cover, any kind of veil)

Khutbah - sermon

From your first list you wanted to know "salat".
It means "contact", "contact prayer, "follow closely", "connection" "remaining attached" (note some of these are from the root of the word, not just the noun, that's why there are verbs).

lol. either he pressed "d" instead of "s", meaning he wanted to write "shirk" or he mixed up "r" and "k".

anyhow, Rev. John
you have the meaning of "shirk" now.
"dhikr" (spoken "zikr&quot means

reminder, remembrance

can anybody think of other meanings?

Rev_John

Yes I think it might have been dhikr. (I like Shrek too)

The word used for reminder is "tadhkira/ "
