Prayer in Islam

Prayer in Islam
Prayer is one of the fundamental duties of Muslim . the prayer takes place five time a day: dawn noon afternoon sunset and night

The Five Prayers of Islam
Each prayer consists of units. The dawn prayer has tow units the noon prayer has four units the afternoon prayer has four units the sunset prayer has three unit the night prayer has four unit . this means that the unit is a certain number of times in each prayer.
Belief in Allah will weaken without prayer .life is full of temptation money, business , sex , evil and evi-doers . if a believer does not pray, most probably he will be overcome by the physical temptation of life . so through prayer a believer keeps in touch with Allah .prayer keeps reminding man of Allah, His orders, His rewards and life after death
Group prayer is asocial exercise . No words or preaching can result in same effect. All the Muslim of a village a town or a suburb stand in same place , in the same , shoulder to shoulder, stand together sit together, face the same center and do all this five time a day . what else can bring a bout social solidarity and social fraternity better than this? Of course , prayer is one way to bring about social solidarity .
