After the all-important testimony of faith (Shahaadah), prayer is the foremost obligation in Islam. The necessity of performing the five daily prayers is thus the second pillar of Islam. This act of worship comes with many benefits. It was revealed to Prophet (PBUH) when he ascended to the heavens in the miraculous night journey (Israu2019 & Miu2019raaj). The five obligatory prayers consist of Fajr (dawn prayer), Zuhr (midday prayer), Asr (afternoon prayer), Maghrib (sunset prayer) and Isha (night prayer). The fast-paced, busy nature of life in the 21st century often results in people neglecting their prayers. Hence, it is imperative to stress upon the immensely positive impact of prayer on a Muslimu2019s life. Amongst the benefits of the five daily prayers is that we fulfil our obligation towards Allah by praying them. Therefore, we avoid the grave consequences of not performing our five daily prayers in the proper manner prescribed in Islam.
