Sallal farasa tasliah is said when the number two horse in a race is running ver close to the number one horse the horse in front is called saabiq and the one in second position is called almusalli thus salla means to follow behind almost touching the one in front one of Hazrat Ali?s tale says sabaqa rasulul laahi wa salla abu bakrin wa sallasa umaru wa khbatatna fitnah the Prophet puh went first (i.e. died) followed closely by Hazrat Abu Baker and thenHazrat Umar also passed away leaving the devils making us lose our sense.

The Tajul Uroos says salia wus tala means attachment i.e. to be attached or stuck to
dsomeone that is why Raghib has said, that the Qur?an when it says lum naku minal musalleen7443 we were not among the miusalleen ? it means we were not the followers of the prophets Qurtabi writes therefore salaat would mean linked to the orders of God to remain within the bounds or limits set by God and be attached to the Book of God as such, tasliah would mean to follow the one in front almost in tandem but never to go past the one in the front but to follow it
These explanations make the meaning of salaat clear. However we need to have detailed deliberations from the free-mind community. Above connotations forced me to declare that Mr Rashid Khalifa?s assertion ? Contact Prayer? is discrepant.

Peace,
If we look at all the roots in Quran, it gives us an idea of the common thread that runs through all of them. I have just started looking at these and I was wondering if anybody has done a similar study or knows of a similar study and could provide a link to such a study that may help in my research. In fact, there may even be a link to all roots in Quran that have as the middle letter of the tri-literal root. Any input on this would be appreciated.
