2. How to Pray Fajr?

2.1. Fajr prayer intention

Niyat means determination. Niyyat is essential at the beginning of Salat. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said, all actions are dependent on intentions and every person will get what he intends. (1st Hadith of Sahih Bukhari and Mishkat) Therefore, after performing ablution for Salat and purifying yourself with clean clothes and body and mind, turn your back towards the Ka’ba house and with a firm resolve to pray in your heart, stand in front of your Lord with a humble heart seeking His pleasure. The traditional custom of reciting Niyyat orally is a new creation in Deen. It has no place in the Salat of the Prophet (PBUH). Many people remember the prayer of Zaynamaz and read Inni Wazzahtu… before starting the prayer. This custom is contrary to the Sunnah. Basically, there is no such thing as Jainamaz prayer.

Muttafaq alaih, Mishkat ha/909; Mir’at Ha/915, 3/235.

In the explanation of this word, a group of scholars said that at this time there is no sin and there is no difference in manners, all kinds of dua for the world and the hereafter can be made. On the other hand, the other party said that only the supplications described in the Quran and Hadith should be prayed. Because the Messenger of God (PBUH) said, we should not speak the familiar words of people in this sala. It is only Tasbeeh, Takbeer, and recitation of the Quran. How to Pray Fajr Prayer? How many Rakats in Fajr?

Muslim, Abu Dawud, Nasa’i, Mishkat Ha/978 

The consistency between the two hadiths can be that all such supplications can be made to Allah, not for the sake of others and not contrary to manners. However, since the entire ritual of Salat is in Arabic, it is not safe for non-Arabs to pray in their own Arabic. Second: It is better to recite the Dua of the Hadeeth for everyone in all circumstances. But when the dua is not known, it is best for him to recite any substantive dua like the following dua after the customary dua e Masurah (Alla-Humma inni jalamtu…), which covers all the needs of this world and the hereafter. . Anas (RA) said, the Prophet (PBUH) used to recite this prayer most of the time. How to Pray Fajr Prayer? How many Rakats in Fajr?

Allahumma Rabbana Atina Fidduniya Hasanataw Wafil A-Khirate Hasanataw Wa Kina Aza-Banna. Or Allah-humma a-tina fidduniyyah…

O, Allah! O our Lord! Grant us good in this world and good in the Hereafter and save us from the punishment of Hellfire.

Bukhari Hadith No. 4522

At this time, worldly needs will be included in the intention. Because Allah knows the heart of the servant and hears the cry of his heart. It is better not to mention anything specifically during the dua. Because God knows best what will be good for the servant in the future.

At the end of Dua’a Masurah, first to the right and then to the left, return the salam saying Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah (Peace and grace from Allah be upon you!). ‘Wa Barakatuhu’ (and his blessings) can be added at the end of the first salam.

Another hadith states that he used to pray more during the time between Tashahhud and salam in the last meeting. (Muslim, Mishkat Ha/813)

3.3. prayer

Munajat means talking to each other secretly. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, “When one of you is engaged in prayer, he prays to his Lord, that is, he speaks in secret.” (Bukhari (Delhi Print) 1/76 p.; Muttafaq Alaih, Mishkat Ha/710) So Salat is not a meditation, but the name of the servant’s direct request for forgiveness and prayer to Allah. What cannot be said to anyone in the world, the creator says to the slave with Allah. Allah understands the language of his servant’s eyes and hears the cry of his heart. Allah says, call me. I will answer your call. (Mumin/Gafir 40/60). How to Pray Fajr Prayer? How many Rakats in Fajr?

The Prophet (PBUH) said Du’a is worship. (Mishkat Ha/2230) Therefore, the method of supplication must be according to the Sunnah. We have to look at the manner in which the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) prayed. As he prayed, we must pray. If you leave the way he left behind and make dua in another way, it will be more likely to be a sin than to be accepted. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) made Du’a in Salat. How to Pray Fajr Prayer? How many Rakats in Fajr?

The duration of the prayer from after the Takbeer Tahrima to the return of salam. (Mishkat Ha/312) During this silent period of prayer, the servant prays to his Lord. ‘Shalaat’ means supplication, supplication, etc. From Chana to the return of Salam, there is only dua and dua throughout the prayer. When the meaning is understood, the servant does not ask for anything other than those prayers. Yet there is ample opportunity to pray alone after the return of salam. Then any valid prayer can be made in any language. How to Pray Fajr Prayer? How many Rakats in Fajr?

3.4. Collective Dua except for the obligatory Salat

After returning the salam at the end of the obligatory prayer, the imam and the Muqtadi raise their hands together and read the dua in the voice of the imam and the Muqtadi says Amin ‘Amen’ is a new creation in the religion. There is no Sahih or Zaif evidence for this from Rasulullah (SAW) and the Companions. It must be said that even today in the mosques of the two Harams of Makkah-Madinah, the said custom does not exist.

3.5. Disadvantages of conventional combined doors

(1) It is against the Sunnah. Therefore, no matter how sweet and beautiful it may seem, according to the meaning of Surah Kahf verses 103-4, there is a possibility that the person will be included in the wrongdoers. 

(2) As a result, Musalli gives more importance to matters outside of Salat, i.e. traditional prayer, than to his own Salat. And that’s why nowadays people are giving more importance to prayer than obligatory prayer and they are more interested in joining the heretical event called Akhiri prayer and crowding there in groups. How to Pray Fajr Prayer? How many Rakats in Fajr?

(3) As a result of its evil, a mushalli does not learn the meaning of anything even though he prays for all his life. Instead, at the end of the prayer, the face of the imam is waiting for the prayer. 

(4) He does not understand anything that the Imam Arabic said in the prayer. On the other hand, he himself cannot say anything. Before that, he could not pour out his heart in the prayers he recited in Salaat, because he did not know the meaning.

(5) As the Imam is unaware of the mind of the worshiper, the worshiper only says ‘Amen’. 

(6) One of the motives of Imam Saheb may have been to win the hearts of listeners and devotees through long melodious prayers in Arabic-Urdu-Bengali or other languages. As a result, the poets of ‘Riya’ and ‘Sruti’ are likely to sin. ‘Riya’ is called ‘small shirk’ in the hadith. (Ahmad, Mishkat Ha/5334) As a result, there is a definite possibility that all the good deeds of Imam Sahab will be wasted.

(Sahih Al-Adabul Mufarad Ha/461) Even when one person prays, the other can say ‘Ameen’ at the same time. It should be noted that always performing ablution, facing the Qibla, and holding two hands are not prerequisites for supplication.

And Allah has commanded the servant to call on Him at any time and in any situation. (Baqara 2/186, Mu’min/Gafar 40/60; Bukhari ‘Supplications’ Chapter-80, Paragraph-24)
