Rakáh is a single complete part of the prayers that Muslims pray 5 times a day, for example, the morning prayer is 2 reka'ahs, you start standing, you bow then you kneel, and after you come up that's a rekaáh.

What is Salat ul Khasoof?

Salat ul Kusoof (Pray of Eclipse)Eclipses are signs from Allaah by means of which Allaah makes His slaves afraid. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): "And We sent not the signs except to warn, and to make them afraid (of destruction)" [al-Israa' 17:39]During the Jaahiliyyah, people used to believe that eclipses happened to mark the birth or death of a great person, but the Messenger of Allaah SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) declared this belief to be false and explained the divine wisdom behind the occurrence of eclipses:Imaam al-Bukhaari and Muslim narrated that Ibn Mas'ood al-Ansaari said: "the sun was eclipsed the day Ibraaheem the son of the Messenger of Allaah SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) died, and the people said, 'The sun is eclipsed because of the death of Ibraaheem.' The Messenger of Allaah SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: 'The sun and the moon are two signs from Allaah, and they do not become eclipsed for the death or the birth of anyone. If you see that, hasten to remember Allaah and to pray.'"The time for Salaat al-Kusoof lasts from the beginning of the eclipse until it is over, because the Prophet SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "When you see that, then pray." (Agreed upon). According to another hadeeth, "If you see anything of that, then pray until it is over." (Reported by Muslim).How is Salatul Khusuf performed1. Before offering the Salah, one must ensure the taharah, purity of the body, the clothes and the place.2. Make Wodhu3. Facing the Qiblah4. The person who offers it pronounces the Takbiratul-Ihram5. Recites the Surat-ul-Fatihah and then a Surah.6. He then performs a Rokou.7. He rises from the Rokou and again recites a portion of the Holy Qur'an.8. This is followed by the second Rokou.9. After rising from the second Rokou, he performs two Sajdahs.10. He then performs the second Rakah with two Rokous as done before.11. He them sits for the Tashahhud and ends the Salah with the Taslim.Salaat al-Kusoof should not be done once the eclipse is over, because the time has gone. If an eclipse ends before one knows about it, one does not have to pray, because the reason for this prayer is no longer there.

Caliph is a term that is used for the Muslim ruler of a Caliphate.The Caliph (khalīfah ) is the head of state in a Caliphate, and the title for the ruler of the Islamic Ummah, an Islamic community ruled by the Shari'ah(Islamic Law). It is a transcribed version of the Arabic word Khalīfah which means "successor" or "representative"AnswerCaliph means representative of God on earthdo you believe prophet talked about every detail part of life and did not said abything about political leader of Islam Ummah and left it for people to themselves select any one they like by voting or any other way they wish?Caliph literally means deputy. and is representative of God in earth for political leadership of Islamic government.Quran 6:57 says:إِنِ الْحُكْمُ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ"The command rests with none but Allah:"(the word حکم in this verse (command) has same root and meaning of word حکومت meaning government)so if prophet is really messenger of God so according to above verse did appoint the Caliph or not?or left it for people select it?Quran 2:30 says:"I am appointing Caliph on earth"إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةًthis verse uses exactly the Arabic word for Caliph.if God appoints Caliph did God appoint the Caliph after prophet? or left it for people select it by voting or shura or etc. anyway voting shura,.. are not appointing by God and are appointing by people.also this verse:يَا دَاوُودُ إِنَّا جَعَلْنَاكَ خَلِيفَةً فِي الْأَرْضِ فَاحْكُم بَيْنَ النَّاسِ بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا تَتَّبِعِ الْهَوَىٰ فَيُضِلَّكَ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَضِلُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ بِمَا نَسُوا يَوْمَ الْحِسَابِ ﴿ص: ٢٦﴾[We said], "O David, indeed We have made you a successor upon the earth [Caliph], so judge between the people in truth and do not follow [your own] desire, as it will lead you astray from the way of Allah."

Why being a good khalifah is important to Muslims?

Caliph by default is good because it is selected by God. unless he be a fake Caliph. do you believe prophet talked about every detail part of life and did not said abything about political leader of Islam Ummah and left it for people to themselves select any one they like by voting or any other way they wish? Caliph literally means deputy. and is representative of God in earth for political leadership of Islamic government. Quran 6:57 says: إِنِ الْحُكْمُ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ "The command rests with none but Allah:" (the word حکم in this verse (command) has same root and meaning of word حکومت meaning government) so if prophet is really messenger of God so according to above verse did appoint the Caliph or not? or left it for people select it? Quran 2:30 says: "I am appointing Caliph on earth" إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً this verse uses exactly the Arabic word for Caliph. if God appoints Caliph did God appoint the Caliph after prophet? or left it for people select it by voting or shura or etc. anyway voting shura,.. are not appointing by God and are appointing by people. also this verse: يَا دَاوُودُ إِنَّا جَعَلْنَاكَ خَلِيفَةً فِي الْأَرْضِ فَاحْكُم بَيْنَ النَّاسِ بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا تَتَّبِعِ الْهَوَىٰ فَيُضِلَّكَ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَضِلُّونَ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌ بِمَا نَسُوا يَوْمَ الْحِسَابِ ﴿ص: ٢٦﴾ [We said], "O David, indeed We have made you a successor upon the earth [Caliph], so judge between the people in truth and do not follow [your own] desire, as it will lead you astray from the way of Allah." Indeed, those who go astray from the way of Allah will have a severe punishment for having forgotten the Day of Account. [38:26] uses exactly the Arabic word for Caliph. and God says: WE made you Caliph. so did God do the same for Caliph after prophet? or this time God chaged his mind and left it people make Caliph by voting or shura or etc? if Imams could not be political Caliph it was for Umayyids and Abbasids did not let them and kept them in home arrest or killed them and warned them to not have any political activity. what you think? Imam Husain (sa) go to Yazid and say: please give me the politial power. and Yazid say OK come sit here in my chair and I go home good bye?!! you are so simple thinking. who Killed Imams of Shia? they all were killed because they wanted to be political leaders. shura is for when God did no specify some thing or any part of religion? for example can some Muslims make shura and change Zuhr Salat to 2 rakah? or remove fasting from Islam by shura?
