Answer 2

Rak'ah is words said by Muslims during salat (worship).

After turning to God in mind (niyyah) and ritual cleansing (wudu)the worshipper will stand quietly (qiyam) while reciting the first verses of the kuran (or Quran or Qur'an). The second part of the rak'ah involves bowing low (ruku) with hands on knees, as if waiting for God's orders. The third movement (sujud) is to prostrate oneself on the ground, with forehead and nose on the floor and elbows raised, in a posture of submission to God. The fourth movement is to sit (julus) with the feet folded under the body. The prayers end as the worshippers turn to the left and right saying, 'Peace be upon you, and God's blessing'. This action reminds Muslims of the importance of others around them, both in the mosque and in the rest of the world.

Answer 3

It represents one unit of a Muslim prayer. Muslims have to pray 5 times a day. Every prayer consists of 2, 3 or 4 rak'ahs. Each rak'ah is a set of standing up, bowing down, prostrating and sitting down. For example, in the dawn prayer (Fajr), you stand up and recite some Quran, then you bow down and glorify God, then you come back up and praise God, then you prostrate and glorify God again, then you sit up and supplicate to God and finally you prostrate again and glorify God. All that is one unit or one rak'ah. You stand up again do the same set and conclude your prayer after. That makes up the 2 units (rak'ahs) of the dawn prayer.
