Timings of Muslim prayers: Salah, Adhan, and Rakat

Salah/Prayer/Namaz

Muslims who are not Arabs refer to Salah as Namaz, meaning ‘prayer’ or ‘supplication’. Islam has five fundamental beliefs and practices, including salah, which is one of them. They are as follows:

  1. Faith declaration (Shahada). There is no God but Allah, and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the messenger of God.
  2. Prayer (Salah)
  3. Charity (Zakat)
  4. Fasting (Sawm)
  5. Pilgrimage (Haj)

Adult Muslims are required to perform Salah five times a day, according to the movement of the sun.

  1. The dawn before sunrise is known as Fajr
  2. The highest point of the Sun after noon is called Dhuhr
  3. At the end of the afternoon, called Asr
  4. Immediately following sunset: Maghrib
  5. The time between sunset and midnight is called Isha

Every Muslim has the right to pray anywhere. Nevertheless, many Muslims pray in masjids in congregation. Masjids are places of worship for Muslims. As Muslims pray together in congregation, they realize all humanity is one and all are equal in God’s sight.

Adhan is the name given to the public call to prayer. The muezzin is the masjid’s designated caller of prayer, delivering the Adhan from the masjid. Muezzins recite the following Takbir (glorification of God) during the call to prayer: “Allahu akbar”.
