礼拜前的准备
举行礼拜之前的六件主命
穆斯林在礼拜之前应保持遵行:
1. 洁身:必须有大净和小净,因病不能近水或缺水之时,可用净土代净。【4:43;
5:6】
2. 净处:必须选择洁净的地方。【2:125】
3. 衣洁:庄重衣物必须足以蔽体。【74:4】
男子自肚脐至膝盖不得外露,而女子则自头至
(手脸除外)。
4.
朝向:
朝向天房。凡处于舟车上或荒野之地,不能辨识方向,可立意朝向即可。【2:144、149-150】。
5.
举意:穆斯林凡干功课应虔诚立意才可成功。
6.
认时:在规定的时间内,古兰经有明确启示。
【4:103;11:114;30:17-18; 50:39-40】
你们应当谨守拜功,完纳天课。凡你们为自己而行的善,你们将在真主那里发现其报酬。真主确是明察你们的行为的【2:110】。
And
be steadfast in prayer and regular in charity: and whatever
good you send forth for your souls before you, you shall find
it with Allah; for Allah sees well all that you
do.【2:110】

Preparations before Prayers
There are six conditions which must be fulfilled
before performing prayers:
1.
Ablution, or
purification of body:
The body must be cleaned from Al-Wudhu (minor
ablution), and Al-Ghusul (major
ablution). However, if one is sick and it is not convenient
to use water or no water is available, he can use Tayammum
(dry ablution) instead. 【4:43;5:6】
2. Purity of place:
Prayers must be performed in a clean place. 【2:125】
3. Purity of clothing:
The body must be properly covered with clean clothing.
【74:4】For man, from navel down to
below knee. For woman, from head to feet other than hands
and face.
4. Facing towards the
Ka’abah:
We should face the Ka’abah when offering prayer. Those who
are traveling on ships or vehicles and those who are unable to
determine the direction can pray with the intention of facing
the Ka’abah. 【2:144,149-150】
5. Intention to pray
(Niyyat):
One must
begin with intention.
6. To be on time:
Prayers
must be performed within the stipulated time as specified
in the Holy Qu’an 【4:103;
11:114;
30:17-18 &
50:39-40】
