We have staff and teachers to help the students with their questions and challenges. Please respect that.
I recommend that you attend the regular webinars we have on this topic where we discuss this in depth and help people apply Islam based on their abilities.
We do know what these words mean. If you do not know what they mean, you can ask and learn.
Your belief about what constitutes religion is yours. It is not valid in Islam.
Islam means to submit to the commandments of God, according to His terms and conditions, not according to our desires and wishes. God tells us what to do and how to do it by way of His messengers and we follow those instructions as Muslims.
God commanded that Salah, the prescribed ritual devotion, is done a certain way, in the Arabic language. This is based on one’s ability. Those who do not know Arabic start with short phrases of praising God and His perfection while doing the motions and postures during the prescribed times.
Worship in Islam is not limited to Salah. There are many acts of devotion including prayers that are said in one’s own language. Salah is very specific.
This command has nothing to do with race as you have claimed.
God chose the Arabic language. This fact is clear throughout the Quran. The Quran is in Arabic and Salah is performed using Arabic words.
As for your claims about Christians, you are mistaken and have not considered all the passages in the Quran about this very topic. You should not take words out of context.
Salvation is exclusive to those who submit to God on His terms and conditions, not on man made religions. Christianity is a combination of many man made religions and is split into numerous denominations. It is not the Way that God sent to Jesus. Jesus was a Muslim and those who follow him are Muslims.
Good Night Everyone I just took the first step to a new journey an converted this afternoon I’m excited an nervous but anything’s possible in the name Allah
Same mate but im expected to copy these arbic phrases i have no understanding of or know how to or what they mean il just nod at the sky until taught correctly my family are not muslim where is guidence? Say this say what what am i saying?
Assalamu alaykom wa rahma’tullah wa barakatuh, [may peace and blessings of Allah be on you], everything starts out with a little difficulty, a new job – you learn it though so that you can earn a good wage, in fact everything you have ever done in life, or will do, requires a measure of input from you. This is the most beautiful and beneficial pathway of learning that you will ever undertake and it will not end really, until you return to Allah subhana wa t’ala. And that is okay. The very best things are worth the striving and struggle. And this struggle brings you eternal peace and reward, and happiness. Imagine how hard you would need to work to go to the best holiday destination in the world, where you could do whatever you want, and where you will eat the best, and be surrounded by enthusiastic and dedicated people – even the staff. You’d work hard, you would learn a few key phrases just so that you could make your stay more pleasurable and know how to get to where you want to be, right? And you would work hard and save to get there. Well, this is to god, and with the help of God – you wont be alone to take and pass the tests of life, and nowadays we have so many resources for learning about islam, including Arabic, and how to pray etc… and in Jannah, you will be so pleased you put all your effort into getting there, and you know what? No matter what you face in this life now, you will find you are able to deal in a different way insha Allah, and that no matter what comes, you have Allah, and He is with you always, He has got your back, in fact your everything. Fi amanillah
You will get it with practice. I am still a newbie but I do know that Allah is merciful to the believers. When you learned to walk, you fell down a lot I am sure. But you tried again until you got it.
I have been learning Spanish for years now (as a second language and my father is fluent) and when I first learned I couldn’t recite the alphabet but I can now write a short and simple essay in Spanish. So too with Arabic. But I do mean that it took me years, six years and I am still not fluent. It will come eventually.
Walaykom salam wa rahma’tullah wa barakatuh, may Allah lead you throughout your life, and guide you always to that which pleases Him the most, and grant you Jannah al firdaus, ameen.
Salaam alaikum, I would like to find out does the number of units refer to steps whereby we raise our hand’s shoulder height to sit up straight only(meaning you repeat this portion of the prayer 2, 3, or 4 times) or the entire prayer as explained in the video lesson?
I have two wrong this is very helpful I have a lot to learn I’m very happy and appreciate that they have this site available for me and others to learn thank you
Congratulations Br. Leif. Please take the salah course and all the other NMA courses and live sessions, in particular, Practice Makes Perfect, which is a live session. If you have a local Islamic center and feel comfortable in visiting that would be great too. Don’t worry about not speaking Arabic yet. NMA also has Quran lessons and Arabic for free as well.
I need to learn to do Salah well. Can you help us with an electronic book or PDF to help us remember every sentence and movement during Salah? Additionally, can I enrol in Quran Recitation classes to learn how to perform Salah?
I’m with you! New Muslim convert amd trying to get a hang of the Arabic language.. it’s a struggle to say the least but keep pushing forward and having faith Inshallah we will all get there!
Is it ok to let a video of the prayers play while we learn to say the words? I can easily do it in English, but I am aware that Arabic is best. Is it better to pray incorrectly while trying to learn, or to not pray at all, because mistakes would be sinful? Thank you.
Learn how you need I am new and find it hard even remember the English translations
