The Prayer

Namāz

From the opening takbīr to the closing salām — word by word, and movement by movement.

The movements without the words are empty; the words without the movements, unfinished.

In this stage

  • 1 From Takbīr-e-Taḥrīma to “as-salāmu ʿalaykum wa raḥmatullāh”
  • 2 The words of the prayer, in Arabic
  • 3 Their Urdu translation
  • 4 And the physical actions — performed, not described
