TAKBIRUT-TAHRIMAHWhen saying takbirut-tahrimah after making niyyah, lift the two hands up to the earlobes in such a manner that both face towards the Qiblah.

Now Read the Sana: SUBHANAKAL-LAHUMMA WABIHAMDIKA WA TA BARAKASMUKA WA TA`AALA JADDUKA WALA ILAHA GHAIYRUKAll Glory be to you O Allah! and praise be to you: Blessed is Your name and Exalted is your Majesty, and there is none worthy besides You.FIRST RAK'AHFirst recite; A UDHU BILLAHI MINASH-SHAYTWAANIR-RAJIMI Seek refuge in Allah from the rejected SatanBISMILLHIR-RAHMAANIR-RAHIMIn the name of Allah, the most beneficent, most mercifuland thereafter recite Suratul-Fatihah; AL-HAMDU LILLAHI RABBIL-`AALAMN,AR-RAHMANIR-RAHIM,MALIKI YAWMID-DIN,IY-YAKA NA`BUDU WA IY-YAKA NASTA`IN,IHDINAS-SIRATAL-MUSTAQIM,SIRATAL-LADHINA AN`AMTA `ALAYHIM,GHAYRIL-MAGH-ZUBI `ALAYHIM WA LA-DWALLIN.AMENPraise be to Allah , Lord of the worlds.The Beneficent, the Merciful.Master of the Day of Judgement.Thee alone we worship and to Thee alone we turn for help.Guide us to the Straight Path.The path of those whom You favoured,Not of those who earned Your anger,nor of those who went astray.It is necessary that a minimum of three short ayah (verses) or one long ayah (equivalent to three short verses) be read in proper sequence as in the Qur'an. eg. SURAH AL IKHLAAS:BISMILLAHIR-RAHMANIR-RAHIM1. QUL HUWAL-LAHU AHAD.2. ALLAH-HUS-SAMAD3. LAM YALID, WA LAM YULAD,4. WA LAM YAKUL-LAHU KUFU-WAN AHADIn the name of Allah, the most beneficent, most merciful1. Say: He is Allah, the One!2. Allah, the eternally Besought of all !3. He begetteth not nor is he begotten.4. And there is none comparable unto Him.Then saying: ALLHU-AKBARAllah is the Greatest.go into ruku (the eyes should be fixed onto the feet) MEN : In ruku hold both the knees with the fingers apart. Ensure that the arms do not touch the body. Keep the back straight, while the head should neither be lowered nor raised. In ruku recite softly at least three or five times. SUBHANA RABBIYAL A¨ZIM Glory to my Lord, the Greatest. WOMEN : When making ruku a woman should only bend over sufficiently so that her hands reach her knees. The hands should be placed on the knees, with the fingers kept together. In ruku the elbows should touch the sides of her body. TASMI'Whilst rising from Ruku Say; SAMI`AL-LAHU LIMAN HAMIDAH.Allah hears all those who praise Him. And stand up. Then in the upright position say: Tahmid: RABBANA LAKAL-HAMDOur Lord ! All praise be to Thee.(If one does not stand erect after ruku and merely lifts ones head and goes into sajdah, then the salaah will not be valid, and it will be necessary to repeat the salaah if sajdah sahw is not performed). FIRST SAJDAHNow saying; ALLHU-AKBAR Allah is the Greatest. And placing both hands on the knees, go into sajdah. (On completing the takbir one should have reached the position of sajdah). When going into sajdah first place the knees on the ground, then the palms, then the nose and lastly the forehead. The face should rest between the two hands with fingers pointing towards the Qiblah. When in sajdah the feet should be upright with the toes pointing towards the Qiblah. The arms should not touch the sides of the body nor the ground. The stomach should be away from the thighs. In sajdah recite softly at least three or five times the following tasbih; SUBHANA RABBIYAL A`LA. Glory to my Lord, the Highest.

JALSAH (To sit between the two sajdahs)Saying ALLHU-AKBARAllah is the Greatest. Sit up straight, do not sit with the back crooked or stooped. It is important to sit up and pause after the first sajdah, merely lifting the head from the ground without sitting up before the second sajdah will nullify the salaah if sajdah sahw is not performed). Men : Sit resting the back on the left leg only and having the right leg raised, the toes facing the Qiblah. Women : Note that a female does not sit on her left leg but instead sits on the floor, with both legs on the right side. SECOND SAJDAHThe second sajdah is performed as the first one. One rak'ah is now complete. SECOND RAK'AHSaying Allahu Akbar stand up for the second Qiyaam. On getting up from the sajdah first lift the forehead, then the nose then the palms, and then the knees. Whilst getting up, ensure that the hands are on the knees and not on the ground for support, except for a valid reason. Saying Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim recite Suratul Fatihah and a Surah and complete the second rak'ah in the same manner as the first one. FIRST QA'DAHAfter completing the second sajdah of the second rak'ah saying Allahu Akbar sit up for Qa'dah. The method of sitting is placing the left foot on the ground and sitting on it, with the right foot upright and its toes facing towards the Qiblah. The palms must be placed on the thighs with the tip of fingers near the knees facing the Qiblah and the ground. It is important that the fingers are kept close together and that they face the Qiblah and not towards the ground. The eyes should be fixed on the lap. Then Read: Tashahhud (Atta-Hiyyaat): AT-TAYAHIYATU LILLAHI WAS-SALAWATU WAT-TAYIBATU ASSALA MU `ALAYKA AY-YUHAN-NABIYYU WARAHMATUL-LAHI WABARAKTUH. AS-SALAMU `ALAYNA WA `ALAA `IBADIL-LAHISSA LIHIN. ASH-HADU AL-LA ILAHA ILLAL-LAHU WA 'ASH-HADU ANNA MUHAMMADAN `ABDUHU WA RASULUH.All prayers and worship through words, actions and sanctity are due to Allah only. Peace be Upon you, O Prophet and the Mercy of Allah and His Blessings. Peace be on us and those who are righteous servants of Allah . I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, who is without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His Servant and messenger.On reaching the kalimah Ash-hadu-allaa-ilaaha form a circle with the thumb and middle finger and lift the index finger of the right hand and at illal-laahu lower it to meet the thumb. The circle should be maintained to the end. THIRD AND FOURTH RAK'ATIf one wishes to perform three or four rak'at one should not read anything more than the Tashahhud in the Qa'dah, but instead saying Allahu Akbar stand up and perform the remaining one or two rak'at. No other Surah should be read after Suratul Fatihah in the third and fourth rak'at of any Fardh salaah. However, it is Wajib to do so In any Wajib, Sunnah or Nafl salaah. SECOND QA'DAH:In the second Qa'dah after the Tashahhud read Durud Ibrahim: O Allah shower Thy blessings on Muhammad and the descendents of Muhammad as Thou did shower Thy blessings on Ibrahim and the descendents of Ibrahim, Thou art the praiseworthy, the Glorius O Allah, Glorify Muhammad and the descendents of Muhammad as Though did Glorify Ibrahim and the descendents of Ibrahim, Though art the Praiseworthy the Glorious. After the Durud recite this du`a:ALLAHUMMA INNI ¨ZALAMTU NAFSI ¨ZULMAN KATHIRAW WALA YAGHFIRUDH-DHUNUBA ILLA ANTA FAGHFIRLI MAGHFIRATAM-MIN `INDIKA WARHAMN INNAKA ANTAL GHAFURUR-RAHIMO Lord! Make me and my children steadfast in prayers; Our Lord! Accept my prayer. Our Lord! Forgive me and my parents and all the believers on the Day of JudgementSALAAMComplete the salaah by turning the face to the right saying: ASSALAMU `ALAYKUM WA RAHMATUL-LA Peace be on you and Allah's Mercy.Then turn the face to the left, and repeat the salaam.ASSALAMU `ALAYKUM WA RAHMATUL-LAPeace be on you and Allah's Mercy. When making salaam one should make intention of greeting the angels. When making salaam the eyes should be fixed onto the respective shoulders. DU`A AFTER COMPLETION OF SALAAHOn completing the salaah one should recite "Astaghfirullah" three times softly. Then one should raise both hands to the level of the chest and make du'a (supplicate) to Allah I, the one below is a typical example; O Allah pardon us. O Allah pardon us. O Allah pardon us.O my Lord! You are the source of peace;You confer peace; Blessed are you and full of majesty and honour.O Allah help us in remembering You and thanking You and worshiping You in the best manner.Our Rabb, accept from us (this duty).Definitely You only are the Hearer, the (all) Knower.Surely You only are the Most Relenting, the Most Merciful.O Allah, Our Rabb, grant us good in the world and good in the Aakhiraat and save us from the punishment of the fire (Jahannum).Glorified is the Lord, the Lord of Might above that which is ascribed upon him and peace be on the Prophets.And praise to Allah the Lords of the worlds.AmeenAYATUL KURSIThis ayah should be memorised and read once after every Fardh salaah and also before sleeping: BISMILLAHIR-RAHMANIR-RAHIMALLAHU LAA ILAHA ILLAA HUWAL-HAY-YUL-QAYÛM.

No slumber can seize Him nor sleep. His are all things in the heavens and on earth. Who is there that can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth? He knoweth what (appeareth to His creatures as) before or after or behind them. Nor shall they compass aught of His knowledge except as he Willeth. His Throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth, and He feeleth no fatigue in guarding and preserving them for He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory).
