4 magrib

5 isha

Answer:

Fajr (meaning 'dawn') is the prayer done between the time the first light of dawn begins, until the sun is close to rising.

Thuhur (spelled zohar by the first answerer, but pronounced with a 'th' sound as in the word 'the') is from the time the sun has passed its highest point, until the shadow of an object is equal to its length. In one of the fourschools of thought (the Hanafi School) it is until the shadow of an object is twice its length.

Asr (literally 'time', but meaning 'afternoon') is from the end of Thuhur, until just before the sun sets (scholars say it should be prayed well before the sun actually begins to set)

Maghrib (literally 'west' but meaning sunset - beacuse the sun sets in the West) is prayed from immediately after sunset, until the last light is gone from the sky)

Ishaa (night) is prayed any time after it is completely dark outside, until the middle of the time between dark, and dawn. In other words, until the time of midnight.

Each of these prayers take only about five or ten minutes to perform. The prayer times - between this time and that - means that a person can take that few minutes to pray at any time between those limits. Of course, it is best to pray it at the time they set at the local mosque - so that one can pray in congregation. But if one is alone, then there is flexibility.

As a general rule, it is better to make each prayer very soon after the time begins. Except the night prayer - Ishaa - which the Prophet used to delay.

If a prayer is done early, it does not count at all. If a prayer is done late - out of laziness or not caring - then it also does not count (but must be made anyway). But if a person fell asleep, or was in a coma, or simply FORGOT, the the prayer is accepted as long as the person makes it as soon as he or she can after they are awake, or after they remember.

The 5 prayers were ordained in the Night journey to Heaven in 621 AD when Prophet Mohammad (SAW) was taken to Heaven to see The Almighty God, and on his return he was given 50 daily prayers for the people. On the way back the Prophet met Prophet Moses (PUH) who said that it will be too much for the people and requested Prophet Mohammad to go back and ask for reduction in the number of prayers.

Islamic house of worship?

The building you are referencing is called a Mosque, however most Muslims call it by its Arabic word, Masjid. This is a place where Muslims can go to offer the 5 daily prayers in a congregation instead of individually, and a majority of the male Muslim population goes to a mosque for the noon prayer on Friday, in which a sermon is spoken and then a congregation prayer follows.

How many minutes do the salah take?

The duration of Salah (prayer) can vary depending on the specific prayer and the individual's pace, but typically, each of the five daily prayers takes about 5 to 10 minutes to complete. The Fard (obligatory) prayers, like Dhuhr, Asr, and Maghrib, usually take around 5 to 7 minutes, while the longer prayers such as Isha may take slightly more time. Additional Sunnah or Nafl prayers can extend the duration. Overall, the total time spent on daily prayers can range from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the individual's practice and the number of additional units performed.
