2 Salah theory?
-
Assalamu Alaykum
Ive heard about the two salah theory but what about this verse?
Yusuf Ali
And establish regular prayers at the two ends of the day and at the approaches of the night For those things, that are good remove those that are evil Be that the word of remembrance to those who remember (their Lord)
Dr. Munir Munshey (one of www.answering-christianity.com's authors)
And establish the ?Salat? in the morning, the evening and during the night. The good deeds do, surely, nullify the bad ones! This is an exhortation for all those who are seeking advice.
Sher Ali
And observe Prayer at the two ends of the day, and in some hours of the night. Surely, good works drive away evil ones. This is a reminder for those who would remember.
Is'nt this already stating three?
Im not here to debate, just to learn
Please share you thoughts

Here is something I read from Aidid Safar's book (Mental Bondage) regarding 11114. It may have a little twist to traditional translations.
It is a mistake to quote verses out of context. Here,
11114 should be read from surah 11 verse 112
through to 115. The verse does not say the Sol-laa
should be done at two ends of the day and parts of
the night. The verse actually says through both ends
of the day and parts of the night. The verse is
rendered here in its full context
You shall uphold what was prescribed, and also
those who repented with you, and not transgress.
Indeed, He knows whatever your deeds are,
watching. Do not be inclined to those who are
wicked. That will make you suffer the Fire, and
there is none for you except God as a protector, then
you will not be helped. And uphold your
commitments (aqimi-Sol-laa-ta) through the ends of
the day and the parts of the night. Indeed the good
deeds nullify the bad. That is the remembrance for
those who want to remember. You shall be steadfast.
God never fails to reward the righteous.
(11112-115)The verse clearly says the commitments are ongoing
throughout the day and parts of the night. Verses
11112-115 emphasise the importance of doing good
deeds throughout the day and parts of the night by
focusing oneself in routines according to what is
taught from God?s prescribed decrees. It is a simple
instruction.
