    peace Mazhar,

    peace Mazhar,

    These comments are with regard to this salat article of yours.

    You discuss 2238 and assume there are two salat each side of al salat al wusta - why two? why not 3 each side etc

    In 2238 why mention one of the five salat separately according to you, when it is already covered by the plural salawat?

    According to you, which salat can be done on the move (2239) "al salat al wusta" or the other "salawat"? And what is your evidence for this.

    what is your evidence for "zulaf" meaning "early"?

    You repeatedly cite "salat al fajr" and "salat al 3sha" as reference points but you have no reference for the other alleged 3 salat hence refer to them as "this al salat" or "al salat for the point in time of...".etc etc - why does Quran not clarify the reference terms for the alleged other 3 in your view? If it does give the terms, please provide them.

    When discussing "salat al fajr" with me you said this is not a name of a "salat" but in your article you state "The other two prescribed al salat are also NAMED by the point in time" (then you reference 245

    You seemingly contradict yourself when you say "The remaining two timings for al salat are at two visual transition EDGES of the day which are in the LATER day..." - ask anyone about what the two edges of daytime are and they will never discuss them being later in the day.

    8 )
    You seemingly have no break in-between some salat.

    Some of your 5 salat have specific times AND time-ranges whilst others do not - why?

    You stopped answering these questions. Please continue from where you left, i.e. after Q4.

    All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

      Did not get response on first four, rebuttal or agreement.

      Question 5's answer might be seen in my latest post in your thread.

        I did not expect such a question from an academic. A possessive phrase is not a name in the sense of specific identity. It denotes reference when associated with some point in time. "They are also referred by the point in time".

          Peace Mazhar,

          Peace,

          1. Is 4/103 incumbent upon Mumins (49/15) and not upon Muslims (49/14) to observe the physical Salat?

          God bless

          peace

            Peace Mazhar,

            Except Allah the Exalted all that exists is binary in nature. Belief and Islam are two elements of a binary relationship. Belief is to accept heartily it is ideological; its observable demonstration is Islam-the code of aright conduct.

            One may seem acting according to Islam without being a believer as is depicted in 4914. Similarly Muna'fi'qeen Imposter Believers also perform As-Salat though only for showing to people.

            Please read this segment of the compilation on As-Salat

            It is a prerequisite for recognition as brother in Islam

                True! brother Mazhar. Are you talking about As-Salat ?Time bound protocol of servitude and allegiance? with respect to Muna'fi'qeen Imposter Believers?

                Salaam!

                  Peace,

                  Allow me to clarify, If a person accepts that there is only one God, but has not reached the
                  the point of Mu'men, according to 49/14 that person is muslim because of acknowledgement
                  yet still the journey has begun even though that person
                  does not make salat, because there is still much to learn, should that person be considered
                  kafir until they start to perform the salat?

                  God bless

                  peace

                    Salaam,

                    A question is how we should define "salat" and what it truly is. My understanding is that it means being aware of God and obeying Him. But I also believe that there are moments of particularly intense communication, traditionally regarded as prayers when we call upon and rely on God for whatever we may wish in our lives. God knows what is in our hearts, but I still believe in this rhetorical act.

                    Moreover, I believe that we should constantly be in a sort of "state of prayer".

                    On the other hand, I do not believe there are such fixed prayer times but rather they should be performed on a regular basis.

                    The traditional asr and maghrib prayers I think was Muhammad's personal preference. Only Islamic so-called "Sunnah" made it 'fard'.

                    The rakah system I also believe to be an invention. There is no trace of it in Quran either, not a hint. However, I think chapter one of Quran was intended as a prayer/supplication.

                    God bless you

                      Salaam brother Man of Faith,

                      May I take this opportunity to put forth the following Questions to be discussed, understood and answered correctly

                      (i) Muhammad's personal preference - Who was Muhammad by the way? If you mean the prophet to whom Al-Quran was sent down from Allah(swt), can you say it for certain his name was 'Muhammad' whereas in the verse 616, the name of the Rasool who was scheduled to come over in the timeline after Prophet Eissa(PBUH) has been described as 'Ahmad'.

                      (ii) You mean to say Asr and Maghrib have been made 'Fard' by the so called propounders of Sunnah, the other ones viz. Fazr, Isa etc. have been made 'Fard' in Quran. Can you find the word 'Fard' with 'Salat' anywhere in Al-Quran?

                        Salaam brother Hawk99,

                        As far as I understand, Momineen and Mominaat are those who are vested with the authority to issue commands accurately to follow the commandments enjoined with do's and dont's (Al-Quran - 971 refers).

                        Muslimeen are those who are appreciative of divine laws and are law abiding. (Al-Quran - 2128 refers).

                        Salaam!

                          Be always mindful for performing As-Salaat; and just peep in the Hell-Prison to listen its dwellers.

                          http//haqeeqat.org.pk/English%20Tafsir%20e%20Haqeeqat/00.%20Tabweeb/00024.%20Salat%20Suad%20Lam%20Waw/25.gif The time bound Protocol of Servitude and Allegiance is the fundamental protocol for non-verbal demonstration of the truthfulness of one's claim of having accepted and become a believer. This is manifestation of belief and key to success and fruitfulness

                          Be always mindful for performing As-Salaat

                                  Pl again read his question and see the list as to what he is asking. He is asking "who of them asked God to have them consistently observes the Contact Prayers before Abraham".

                                  Name one if you can.

                                    Salaam brother Ansmeh1998,

                                    Excuse me, I was just using mainstream sectarian terminology. I had hoped that you would understand that I meant compulsory, but do not worry.

                                    I believe that perhaps Muhammad's preference (or whatever his name was, I do not care much about it) was praying in the afternoon and at nightfall and this was later turned into following the prophet's so-called 'sunnah' and made obligatory due to the sectarian belief of robot-like imitation of the prophet.

                                    You talked about the possible non-existence of a man named Muhammad, but that does not concern this discussion and I personally do not care if he was so named Obama or any other name (excuse me for the sarcasm). However, I am sure in my opinion that there was some prophet that delivered the Quran. I place him with the code name Muhammad in lack of better knowledge.

                                    I hope my tone was not too bad. Nothing bad intended.

                                    God bless you
