Salat According to the Quran and a Critical Remark

Zulf

...is for the objective to create / a fixed state , there should be no counting or prescribed repeated movements , that all affect two major things required in salah al-Qunt / a constant or immobile state and concentration al-khush3 , which someone can never achieve with the present official way of doing the Salah .

After the initial days when I was new to the namaz style prayer, I realized that I cannot get a feeling of connection with anything spiritual or deep when doing the namaz. Actually, I usually just wanted to get over with the namaz (in the mosque) so that I could go home and pray (for real). Namaz was just a show and all focus was on coordinated movements, even when you knew the movements well. To me, namaz is very materialistic and unspiritual.

What you wrote above makes perfect sense to me. I don't care if it is correct or not in the context of Salah... because it is true nevertheless in a practical sense. Qunuut and Khushuu3 makes it possible to go deep within and open up to spiritual levels. Namaz keeps you at a very disconnected and material level.

I loved to hear someone say this!

Hello everyone ^_^

I think the salat article on Free-minds should be edited!

This way to perform salat makes sense to me now.

Thank you very much to the contributors on this thread especially AlKitaab

Salaam,

Perhaps this forum has made some further breakthroughs in understanding the Truth. Good work!

I had suspected for quite a while that the prayer is intended to be more of a meditation than the salat traditionalists perform. I had previously worked on making the salat less ritualistic and more about meditation and this may prove I was not doing wrong. It is true that concentration is very important during salat, and the counting and moves distract the practitioner quite much. Focus on what you are really intended to do with the salat instead, like establishing a connection.

God bless you

Salam All ,

Continuation of the argument n?1

Part two of the word Ruk3

The word Ruk3 consist of two roots Ru k 3

First root rk Ruk3 , i already showed what the root rk stand for and how is it connected to the meaning of Ruk3 mean kneeling on the ground .
Second root k3 Ruk3
What does the root k3 stand for and how is it connected to the physical movement of Ruk3 / kneeling ?

We read in the qur'an the usage of the root k3 in some words , notably

al-ka3bah

5 - 97

597{ Allah has made the Ka?bah, the inviolable House, standing for the people and the inviolable months and the gifts and the garlands . That is so you may know that Allah knows what is in the heavens and what is in the earth and that Allah is Knowing of all things.}

Ka3bah is the prominent place made as inviolable house

al-ka3bayeen

5 - 6

56 { O you who have believed, when you rise to Salah, wash your faces and your forearms to the elbows and wipe over your heads and wash your feet to the ankles. And if you are in a state of janabah, then purify yourselves. But if you are ill or on a journey or one of you comes from the place of relieving himself or you have contacted women and do not find water, then seek clean earth and wipe over your faces and hands with it. Allah does not intend to make difficulty for you, but He intends to purify you and complete His favor upon you that you may be grateful.}

ka3b is the prominent bones at the ankles , and k3 is the prominent bones after the hand known in English as the wrist bone . Notice the pronunciation of other prominent bones .

k3b

78 - 33

7833 {And voluptuous women of equal age}

k3b women with prominent full breasted shape..etc

As we see the root k3 has a physical connection with being prominent

prom?i?nence
pr?mnns/Valider
noun
1.
the state of being important or famous.
"she came to prominence as an artist in the 1960s"
synonyms fame, celebrity, eminence, preeminence, importance, distinction, greatness, note, notability, prestige, stature, standing, position, rank More
2.
the fact or condition of standing out from something by physically projecting or being particularly noticeable.
"radiographs showed enlargement of the right heart with prominence of the pulmonary outflow tract"

Many of the prominent bones at the arms and the foot has the root k3 as part of its names , as this bones are prominent , we notably remark the ankles (al-ka3bayeen ) pair of ka3bb and the wrist bone ( al-k3ayen) , pair of k3

What is the connection with the movement of Ruk3 and the two prominent bones ka3b / ankles and k3 / wrist bone

We saw in the previous post that the root rk in the movement of Ruk3 is connected to the movement of al-rukbatyeen / The knees single of rukbah / The knee , its evident that when someone is kneeling to the ground he has to use his hand as support as it's harmful to kneel down on the ground from a standing position with no hand support unlike the animals human use their hands , so it i evident that the hands are used most precisely the pressure and the articulation is on the and al-k3 / wrist bone , also there is pressure and articulation on the ka3b / ankles .

So there are two root that are in the word Ruk k3 indicate two movement one following the other

**First the movement legs with the pleating ( breaking )of the knees al-rukbatyen

** second the movement of arms through the support and the articulation of the wrist bone al-k3

There is also support and base from al-b3 and al-kurs3 and al-3arkb see the image above for demonstration .

Salat is prescribed to be done 3 times per day (morning, evening, and night).

Yes correct , two definite time + The night ( can have as many salah as someone can or wish )

And it is as follow
