        Thank you. I have another four
        Zakat
        Dawah
        Hijab
        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).

        I am no longer a Sunna-rejecter. See 4:59-65, 62:2-4, 3:31, 4:156, 7:157 Messenger teaches and is to be followed and obeyed. Examples of revelation received which is not in the Qur'an: 3:123-126, 33:37, 2:187, 66:3, 62:9.

                You mean "shirk", right? It means "setting up partners (to God)", "ascribing partners (to God)", "idolatry", etc.

                I am no longer a Sunna-rejecter. See 4:59-65, 62:2-4, 3:31, 4:156, 7:157 Messenger teaches and is to be followed and obeyed. Examples of revelation received which is not in the Qur'an: 3:123-126, 33:37, 2:187, 66:3, 62:9.

                              you mean dhikr, right?

                              here is a good website short articles about all the concepts you are asking

                              http//www.tolueislam.com/Parwez/BA_Parwez.htm

                              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?

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

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

                                        reminder, remembrance

                                        can anybody think of other meanings?

                                        spoken qur'aan as opposed to written; in the spoken language?
                                        The word used for reminder is "tadhkira/ "

                                          I meant that "dhikr" is spoken "zikr" - like when we say it with our mouths we say "zikr". P
                                          What's the root for "Dhikr"?

                                          Please write in the following format (example) Zay-Ka-Waw so that I can look it up on PRL.

                                          Thanks
