Salaah should be made as soon as possible. 4. There
is no Qada for the Sunnah or Nafil Salaah. 5. If a
person misses his Salaah during a journey, then his Qada will also become a
Qasr Salaah if he is making the Qada of Zohar, Asar or Isha Salaah. 6. Qada
has to be made for all Waajib and Fard Salaah. 7.
Females, who have missed their Salaah due to Haiz and Nifaas, may not perform
the Qada of their missed Salaah. 8. If a

Salaah according to the order he or she has chosen. One should also mention
before ones Salaah what Qada he or she is about to read. 9. If
the Qada of that day’s Fajar Salaah is read before Zawaal, then it is better
for the person to also read the Sunnah of the Fajar. SAJDAH
TILAAWAH August
24, 2008 — ashiqerasool 1. There
are certain Ayah (Verses) of the Holy Quran, for which it becomes Waajib upon a
person to make Sajdah. This rule applies for both the reader and the listener.
However, if there is no one listening, then it is only Waajib upon the reader. 2. When
reading any Sajdah Tilaawah verse, one should read the Takbeer, “Allahu Akbar”,
and go into Sajdah. Only one Sajdah is made and the Takbeer is read in the
Sajdah. 3. It is
Makrooh to delay making the Sajdah Tilaawah. 4. Most
of the Holy Qurans have the word “Sajdah” written in the margin. This enables
the reader to identify the Ayaat-e-Sajdah. 5. It is
also Makrooh to skip a Sajdah verse. In fact, there is much more Thawaab in
reading it. 6. If a
person is sitting and reads many Sajdah Ayaah, then the person is required to
make only one Sajdah and not for each verse. 7. The
fourteen verses (14) of the Holy Quran by which it becomes Waajib for one to
make Sajdah Tilaawah are: a. Surah
Araaf: verse 206 b. Surah
Raad : verse 15 c. Surah
Nahl : verse 50 d. Surah
Bani Israeel : verse 109 e. Surah
Mariam : verse 58 f. Surah
Hajj : verse 18 g. Surah
Furqaan : verse 60 h. Surah
Naml : verse 26 i. Surah
Sajdah : verse 15 j. Surah
Saad : verse 25 k. Surah
Haa Meem : verse 38 l. Surah
Najm : verse 62 m. Surah
Inshiqaaq : verse 21 n. Surah
Alaq : verse 19 NAWAAFIL

Creator, Almighty Allah. Care should be taken that these Salaah are not performed
during the Makrooh times. Salaatut Tahajjud Salaatut
Tahajjud can be read from Isha till Subha Saadiq (dawn). Four to 12 Rakaah can
be read. One may read this Nafil Salaah as a 4 or as a 2 Rakaah Salaah with
Salaams after every 2 or 4 Rakaah. This Salaah is read after awakening from
sleep. Salaatul Ishraaq Salaatul
Ishraaq can be read from about 20 minutes after sunrise till the time of
Salaatul Chaast. Two or 4 Rakaah of this Salaah can be read. There is
also great Barakah for one who reads this Salaah. Salaatul Chaast Salaatul
Chaast can be read from the time when the sun has fully risen till the time of
Zawaal. About this Salaah, Sayyiduna Rasulullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)
has said, “Whosoever reads 12 Rakaah of Salaatul Chaast, Almighty Allah will
build for him a place in Jannah.” One may read 4 or 12 Rakaah in this Salaah. Salaatul
Awwabeen It is
reported in a Hadith that whosoever reads 6 Rakaah of Salaatul Awwabeen after
Maghrib without any talk will get Thawaab equal to 12 years of Ibaadah.
Salaatul Awwabeen is read from after Maghrib till Isha. One may read from 2 to
20 Rakaah in this Salaah. Salaatul
Tasbeeh It is
reported that anyone who reads this Salaah will have all his or her sins wiped
out. Salaatul Tasbeeh can be read once every day, or every Friday, or once in a
month or once in a life time. HOW
TO READ SALAATUL TASBEEH: a. Make
the intention. b. Read
the Thana after the Takbeer-e-Tahreema (first Takbeer). c. Read
the third Kalimah 15 times: d. Read
Surah Fatiha and any Surah. Then read the third Kalimah 10 times. e. Go

times. h. Sit
in the Jalsa position after the first Sajdah and read the third Kalimah 10
times. i. Go
into the second Sajdah and after the Tasbeeh read the third Kalimah 10 times. Note :
This would complete the third Kalimah 75 times in each Rakaah. In this manner,
when you have read 4 Rakaah, you would have read the third Kalimah 300 times.
It is better to read the Salaatul Tasbeeh before the Fard of Zohar, that is,
between the Sunnah and Fard of Zohar. However, if it is not possible, then you may
read it at any time. Salaatul
Haajaat Salaatul

favour or help from Almighty Allah. After this Salaah, one should read as much
Durood Shareef as possible and beg Almighty Allah for assistance. After the

sleep and await for a sign. There should be no talking after the Du’a. It is
better to read this Salaah for 3, 7, 9 or 11 nights. If one sees red or black
colour in a dream, then it is a sign that one should not do what one intends.
If one sees green or white colour, then it is a good sign for one to carry out
ones intentions. Salaatul
Istisqa Salaatul

offer 2 Rakaah Salaah with Jamaah outside the town. After
the Salaah, the Imaam reads a Khutbah and then makes a Du’a for rain.

that he is a Musaafir. What should the Musallies do? As soon as the Imaam
completes his Fard Salaah (Remember, that he has shortened his Salaah), and
reads the Salaam, the Musallies must stand up after hearing the first Salaam
and complete their last 2 Rakaah. The Musallies should not read Surah Fatiha in
these last 2 Rakaah but remain silent as much as the time it takes to read
Surah Fatiha. The Musalli must then complete his Salaah with Salaams. SALAATUL

legs should be facing straight towards the Qiblah. 3. If
the person has been unconscious for less than 24 hours then he or she must

for Jummah Salaah There
are certain conditions that a person must fulfil before Jummah Salaah becomes
compulsory. They are: 1. To be
a male. 2. To be
within the boundary of a town. 3. To be
healthy (physically able to perform the Salaah). 4. The
road to the Masjid should be safe. 5. Not
to be physically handicapped, for example, being blind or cripple. Sunnah
Acts on the Day of Jummah 1. Make
Ghusal (bath), trim nails and remove the unwanted hairs of the body. 2. Wear
clean clothes. Of course, this should be done at all times. 3. Use
sweet scent (I’tr) when going to the Masjid. 4. Try
and read the following Surahs: Surah Kahf and Surah Dukhaan. 5. It is
highly recommended that one reads the Salaatus Tasbeeh. 6. Read
as much Durood Shareef as possible. 7. Make
as much Du’a as possible. The
Jummah Salaah 1. The
time for Jummah Salaah starts after Zawaal until the end of the Zohar Salaah
time. 2. After
the first Azaan, read the 4 Rakaah Sunnat-e-Mu’akkidah. 3. The
Imaam normally gives a short lecture. 4. Then
the two Khutbah are read. You should not speak, read Salaah or make Zikr during
the Khutbah. You should listen carefully to the Khutbah and face the Imaam. 5. After
the Khutbah, 2 Rakaah Fard Salaah is read with Jamaah. 6.
Thereafter, the following Salaah are read: 4 Rakaah Sunnat-e-Mu’akkidah, 2
Rakaah Sunnat-e-Mu’akkidah, and lastly, 2 Rakaah Nafil Salaah. 7. Since
Jummah is not Waajib upon the females, they can read their Zohar Salaah at
home. 8. A
person who misses his Jummah Salaah can perform his Zohar Salaah. 9.
Nowadays, it is seen that many youngsters rush off from the Masjid immediately
after the Fard Salaah of Jummah. This is a great sin as they are leaving out
the Sunnah of Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). 10. It
is a great sin for a male not to go for Jummah Salaah without a valid excuse. 11.
Avoid talking and making noise in the Wudu Khana and Masjid during the lecture
and the Khutbah. 12. Do
not come late to the Masjid and miss out on listening to the Jummah Khutbah.
Many have the habit of just entering the Masjid before the end of the Jummah
Khutbah and rushing for the Fard Salaah. This is not a good practise. 13. It is
of great benefit to recite the Salaatu Salaam (ie. send Salaams to Sayyiduna
Rasulullah sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) after the Jummah Salaah. SAJDAH
SAHW August

a person leaves out a Waajib. 2. When
a person changes the sequence of a Waajib or Fard action. 3. When
a person delays a Waajib or Fard act for the period that it takes to read
“Subhan Allah” 3 times. 4. When

a person changes the nature of a Waajib act, for example, to read aloud during
the Fard Salaah of Asar and Zohar. Other Rules Relating to Sajdah

the case where Salaah is being performed with Jamaah and the Imaam makes a
mistake requiring him to make Sajdah Sahw, then the Jamaah will have to follow
the Imaam in Sajdah Sahw. 2. If a
Muqtadi makes a mistake behind the Imaam, then no Sajdah Sahw is to be
performed. 3.
Sajdah Sahw is only made once, even though more than one mistake may have been
made in that Salaah. How

having read the Attahiyaat in the last Rakaah, make Salaam to the right only
and then perform the 2 Sajdah. After this, read the Attahiyaat, the
Durood-e-Ebrahim, the Dua and complete the Salaah with the Salaams. http://madinasharif.wordpress.com/tag/namaz/ |
