Salat, the formal Islamic prayer, can be offered in ten minutes, but sometimes takes much longer, up to two hours in Ramadan.
-----
The Muslim prayer has a core, which is compulsory. This takes about 5-10 minutes depending on how fluent you are in Arabic. There are other recommended acts/recitations that may be added or omitted at the person's convenience. So you can pray for as long as you like.
A prayer should not be rushed. it should be medium. if a prayer is fast you dont know what your saying and you might get it wrong the words and its a sin so dont rush
thanks!
A day for a Muslim starts with early morning prayers.
No a Muslim can not break away from praying regularly! The prayers are of the 5 pillars of Islam and the prophet also said that leaving the prayers is an act of disbelief!
The Imam
He has to hasten to repent from this guilt & attends all the prayers on their specific times. The Almighty Allah likes those who repent to Him & not insist on their sins. keep in mind that the 5 prayers are the second pillar of Islam & praying is a duty & must on EACH Muslim.
Men and women are separated so they aren't distracted from their prayers.
When a Muslim offers prayers alone (not leading anyone else in the prayer) then even the obligatory prayers of Fajr, Maghrib and Ishaa - which are all read out loud - can be read silently. That is permitted.
Someone can prove that he is a Muslim by quoting some of the basic Quran verses and reciting some of the prayers.
Muslims perform Wudu(cleansing) before prayer.
the prayers are: fajr-morning thuhr-mid morning asr-afternoon mughrib-mid afternoon ashai- night
Actually, Muslim women must show their face during prayer.
they can keep their face and after wrist if they wish
Muslim prayers are in Arabic because that is the language in which the Koran, the holy book of Islam, was dictated to the prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him). Like the Koran itself, Muslim prayers are written in a eloquent and poetic classical Arabic that continues to live as a sacred expression of the Divine Being. Muslims around to world learn the language of the Koran as part of their religious studies.
