Poll:How many daily Salat prayers are there?
-
A simple question for you; If the SALAAT-ULWUSTA is included in the SALAWAAT in 2238, then why is it repeated again right after ASSALAWAAT? For what purpose ALLAAH, swt, commanding us to safeguard over the SALAWAAT AND the SALLAAT-ULWUSTA?
A simple answer for you; because ALLAAH, swt, is ordaining the MINIMUM number of daily salaats to be five/5.
Peace,
Khalil"Al salat al wusta" (note that is not named "salat al..." as the two at "fajr" and "isha" is already included in the "salawat". "Salat al wusta" has nothing to do with a "middle prayer". It is mentioned in the context of divorce where we are to remember our best/most balanced "salat" (bond/connection/oath/commitment), which is to God.

Peace all,
Just to present a different choice that can be added to this poll.
I think that we are asked to straighten (aqeemoo) our relation or relations (salat or slawate) all day long and also part of the night. Also, a balanced relationship is recommended.
Definition of RELATION
1
the act of telling or recounting account
2
an aspect or quality (as resemblance) that connects two or more things or parts as being or belonging or working together or as being of the same kind <the relation of time and space>; specifically a property (as one expressed by is equal to, is less than, or is the brother of) that holds between an ordered pair of objects
3
the referring by a legal fiction of an act to a prior date as the time of its taking effect ?usually used with back
4
a (1) a person connected by consanguinity or affinity relative (2) a person legally entitled to a share of the property of an intestate
b relationship by consanguinity or affinity kinship
5
reference, respect <in relation to>
6
the attitude or stance which two or more persons or groups assume toward one another <race relations>
7
a the state of being mutually or reciprocally interested (as in social or commercial matters)
b plural (1) dealings, intercourse <foreign relations> (2) sexual intercourseWe are also advised to wash and have minimum hygiene when getting in contact with others, thus the verses about cleansing ourselves.
We are also advised to remember the god and his commandments (masajid) while dealing with our relationships, to have straight relations void of any crookedness.
I think also that the verses about the timing are describing an interval of time, not some specific time or times of prayer or calling on the god, which can be done anytime, anywhere, and on any position.
peace
I also think this is the essence
Thanks!

My views on this have been changing recently. I'm curious as to what others think and why.
Would it be possible to add a zero as one of the choices as there are some who do not consider salat to be ritual prayers?

Well, if Salat is not the ritual prayer, then what it is? Why don't you say?

Salaam,
muslims can be a contributor too and not just a rebel. That is a good ayat interpreted pretty accurately.
God bless you
