    i been told that the first thing God judge us for is the "salat". If a person didn't do it or missed out greatly then God won't even look at him and send him to burn .......etc.

    I suggest reading al quran, to see what it says.

    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.

        peace all,

        in short as i understand,

        What salaat is a composite spiritual practice! (meditate, prayer, rememberance, affirmation).
        This practice has been given to all religions. but each folk was given a suitable form.
        This practice can be done individually or in group formation.
        It is a holy gymnastic for our spiritual body.

        Function
        Connection of our awareness to higher self.
        Recollection of that which we alreay are. rememberance of LOVE for GOD. Opening of heart.
        Dehypnotizing of human consciousness. Reprogramming of subcosciousness.

        How
        Clearing the mind. Going into a meditative state.
        Confession en repentance of that which went wrong.
        Confession of your genuine need for guidance.
        Affiming the unity of existence and your role in it.
        Repeating of sacred and beautiful words till forgetting the sense of I , me en mine.

        peace,

            Peace all,

            While I agree that remembrance of The God is greatest as per 2945, salat is for The God's remembrance and thus very important obligation

            2014 "I am God, there is no god but Me, so serve Me and uphold the salat/connection for My remembrance."

            We can see in the above verse that the God is directly ordering to uphold the salat for His remembrance. Following verse tells us about the retribution for TURNING AWAY from The God's remembrance both in this life and on the Last Day, and salat is the way to TURN TOWARDS His remembrance.

            20124 "And whoever turns away from My remembrance, then he will have a miserable life, and We will raise him blind on the Day of Resurrection."

                Peace Alpha97, could you please elaborate a little more on that. Tell me please how do you go on clearing the mind... what do you do. If you don't mind please share with us the way you do it in a little more details.

                Peace and blessings

                  Peace FJ,
                  To grasp the whole thing deeply, i recommend this site strongly Listen to audios. Very rich.
                  http//www.spiritual-learning.com/audio.html

                  you could start with these audios to begin with
                  Attunement - Prayer - Tuning, purification, transmutation, and more - Intention, practices, concentrations, levels, and more.

                  we will talk more later!

                  peace

                    Hello everyone,

                    Thank you all for the tips. I found out that i shouldn't do it just because i am told to. I begun to question and found out that i am a lazy person. Few exercises keep me alive. I want to just do some good to myself meditating. Its like yoga i guess. it helps calm and let the daily frustrations out.

                    Thank you all again
