Salah
is a means of achieving
nearness to Allah, therefore
offer the prayer as if you are
before Him, or at the very least
imagine that Allah is watching
you.
11) You should act upon the teach-
ings learnt in the
Salah
and let it
reflect in your daily life
12) While offering
Salah
, the Holy
Qur’an should be recited slowly
and clearly. This applies to all
the other
du’a’
s and declara-
tions uttered during the prayer.
All these should be recited with
appropriate pauses and with
concentration, ardour, and alert-
ness of mind.
13) If
Salah
is offered with under-
standing and care, then only is it
regarded as true prayer.
