PRAYER

 Allahu Akbar - God is Great

Ashhadu an la ilaha illa Allah - I bear witness that there is no god except the One God.

Ashadu anna Muhammadan Rasool Allah - I bear witness that Muhammad is the messenger of God

Hayya 'ala-s-Salah - Hurry to the prayer (Rise up for prayer)

Hayya 'ala-l-Falah - Hurry to success (Rise up for Salvation)

Assalatu khairum-minan-naum - Prayer is better than sleep (This part is only recited for morning prayers.

Allahu Akbar - God is Great

La ilaha illa Allah - There is no god except the One God


There is one difference in the call to prayer between Shia'a Muslims and Sunni Muslims.

Shia'a Muslims also add in, optionally:

Ashhadu ena Aliun Wali Allah - I bear witness that Ali is the vicegerent of Allah.

Another part Shia'a Muslims add is:

Ḥayya ʿala khayr al ʿamal - The time for the best of deeds has come.Prophet Muhammad heard of the revelation and adopted it as a call for prayer.


Some also believe that another person had had a vision prior to the companion and thus the prophet became sure that it was a revelation from Allah and adopted it.

......

During the time, there was no official way for people to know the time for prayers and the prophet preferred the call better than the methods used by Christians and Jews.

...

They win by integrating the call to prayer as a collective reminder—a habit that keeps the mind and (body) reoriented towards the holy of holies (the origin). This proclamation of Faith is ultimately the factor to cement integrity and quell the doubts before we can stray far, as the call of prayer, is in effect, a call to come home.

but quesiton so are you implying that we should be adopting a similar method in our prayers

or should we just understand that we are not the best in incorporating what God has to offer in us-

Hmm but even leading up from this the question would be so what? Is there a way we can understand and accommodate better?

oooyo i think the so what is quite clear_-_

we can see the choice laid in front of us. And this would be a choice some people would choose to take, and it'd aid them to claim new converts and stabilise faiths :D

on another note, itd be good to decrease doubt, once we recognize that half of the power in religion lies in the methodology— in tune to this particular context
eh eh ye what makes you think that this isnt relevant ?


hmm i dont think its irrelevant
i think im misunderstanding your explanations

East and West (religion seeking community and individuality)

 The trend of religion in each state. religion is primed to feed the soul what it lacks.  East communal spirit, people are bonded through their societal role, erasing individuality in the sense where they are intrinsically empowered through 'free' thoughts of expressing whatever they like. Religion will be focusing on the fulfillment of  West is individualised, religion is primed to bring people back into communities and nurture that spirit of caring for each other and moving forward together to a collectively higher purpose. CHRISTIANITY: This is not a religion, this is a personal relationship with Jesus.  Hold out for a saviour who returns your texts, and not someone who has holy ghosted you. But he always answers prayers, it’s just that the answer is sometimes no. This seems more like a one-sided relationship that the imagined person, if he exists, doesn’t seem aware of? This is not so different from the phenomenon in modern celebrity culture— a parasocial relatio...
