Step By Step Guide On How To Pray Like The Prophet ﷺ [Revised Version]

The Prophet ﷺ said: "Pray as you have seen me praying." Ṣaḥīḥ Al-Bukhārī (no. 7246)

In this short booklet, I have summarised the book, 'Description of the Prayer of the Prophet ﷺ' by Shaykh 'Abdul-'Azīz bin Marzūq Aṭ-Ṭarīfī (May Allāh hasten his release) into 46 points.

It is ideal for beginner students and new Muslims. The booklet should be used to teach others how the Prophet ﷺ used to pray.

The Ruling on Praying in Shoes

Wallahi, understanding the Qur'an is fascinating.

Like there were surahs that I would listen to alot while in the car or so, maybe I memorized half the ayat just by listening, and if you asked me I can translate it because I understand Arabic, but when you understand the deep meaning of an Ayah it is a different feeling.

For example what Allah ﷻ said in Suratul Fath:

هُوَ الَّذِي أَنزَلَ السَّكِينَةَ فِي قُلُوبِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لِيَزْدَادُوا إِيمَانًا مَّعَ إِيمَانِهِمْ

You hear it, you can translate it by your knowledge.

But focus on the words "لِيَزْدَادُوا إِيمَانًا مَّعَ إِيمَانِهِمْ".

The apparent translation is "that they would increase in faith along with their present faith".

This seems like a simple Ayah, Allah sent down the Al Sakinah (tranquility) أَنزَلَ ٱلسَّكِينَةَ to in the hearts of the believers فِى قُلُوبِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ لِيَزْدَادُوٓا۟ so that their Iman may increase with the Iman they already have لِيَزْدَادُوٓا۟ إِيمَـٰنًۭا مَّعَ إِيمَـٰنِهِمْ ۗ.

What most don't think about while reading is the refutation to the Murji'a which this includes. They say that Iman does not increase or decrease. And Imam Malik رَحِمَهُ الله used this Ayah as evidence to refute the Murji'a.

This is something most people would never think about while reading or hearing the Ayah, and this shows us the importance of understanding the Qur'an and thinking about every single Ayah.

Let me conclude with Allah's saying:

وَإِذَا تُلِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ ءَايَـٰتُهُۥ زَادَتْهُمْ إِيمَـٰنًۭا

And if the verses of Allah are recited upon them, it increases them in faith.

Allah says two verses later after mentioning more qualities of the believers:

أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ حَقًّۭا ۚ لَّهُمْ دَرَجَـٰتٌ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ وَمَغْفِرَةٌۭ وَرِزْقٌۭ كَرِيمٌۭ
Those are the believers, truly. For them are degrees [of high position] with their Lord and forgiveness and noble provision.

May Allah grant us this and grant us the highest level of Iman, and a great understanding of the Qur'an and may He bless our scholars and make us benefit from their knowledge.

The wider the door of sin is open, the harder it is to close it.

Keep your door as securely closed as you can by learning the Qur'an & Sunnah upon the understanding of the Salaf of the Ummah and acting up the knowledge you have.

A supplication which Imām Ahmad Bin Hanbal رَحِمَهُ الله often repeated:

اللهم أمتنا على الإسلام والسنة
"O Allah, let us die in Islam and Sunnah."

Notes from today's lecture on discord.gg/masjid

1. Do not make fun of the people who have been misguided after they were guided because this is a way in which Allah can misguide you. Instead, you should be grateful to Allah because He guided you, and you should humble yourself. Making fun of people leads to arrogance.

2. Stay away from Al-Laghw. This is speech or actions with no benefit. Instead, focus your time on pleasing and doing to Ibadah.

3. Seek knowledge. Doing so will give you a great benefit in the dunya and the akhira, and this is one of the best ways to get closer to Allah.
