The Islamic rituals are unique and distinguished, always.


In the name of Allah the Most Gracious and the Most Merciful, and praise be to Allah the Cherisher and Sustainer of the words.
May The Peace and the Blessing of Allah, be upon His Prophet Muhammad, who was sent Mercy to the words to lead the humanity to the Truth.

Dear brothers and sisters,

As we know that all religions have methods to call their followers to the prayer. The Christians call to the church for prayer with a bell and the Jews call to the synagogue the prayer with a horn, which are materialistic methods, also are used to call animal and human beings to food and in various occasions for gathering.

While the calling to the prayer in Islam, is a holy and unique massage. It has theme and it discusses issues while calling, to ******* the main principles of the Muslim. It says:

(1) Allah Akbar (meaning Allah is the greatest), four times.
To remind the Muslim that there is nothing is greater than Allah (SWT), the one’s business, the one’s family, the one’s pleasure and the one’s fortunes, …Etc., is never greater than Allah (s.w.t), consequently the Muslim forsakes everything in preference to Allah. Non-Muslim, who hears such a call, might wonder and get interested to know more about this great God. Therefore, the massage carries on for both.

(2) Ashahado ana la ilaha ila-Allah (meaning I bear wetness that there is no god but Allah), two times.
While it confirms to the Muslim and the non-Muslim the first part of the first pillar of Islam, it keeps on reminding the Muslim of his covenant, which is not to worship but Allah (s.w.t.). So if the Non-Muslim is interested and wants to join and wonders how! The massage carries on for both.

(3) Ashahado ana Muhammad Rasoolo Allah (meaning I bear wetness that Muhammad (Peace and Blessing of Allah upon Him), two times.
This is the second part of the first pillar of Islam. Again, it is reminding the Muslim of his covenant, which is Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h.), is the last and only way to Allah (s.w.t.). Also it confirms to the Non-Muslim, who is interested to know a more about Allah (s.w.t.)that Muhammad (p.b.u.h.) is the only way to know about the last and final testimony. Of course, the Muslims accept. Therefore, he is called to the prayers. When the Non-Muslim accepts, as well. He is also called to the prayers. The massage carries on.

(4) Haya ala Assalah (meaning come to prayer), two times.
The Islamic prayer is most important Islamic ritual.

(5) Haya ala alflah (meaning come to success), two times.
When the Muslim responds he gains Allah’s Pleasure. Which is the most dear and important goal of the Muslim.

(6) Allah Akbar, two times.
This to state that Allah will remain the greatest, whether the whole human beings respond or not.

(7) La illah ila-Allah (meaning there is no god but Allah), one time.
The massage is concluded by affirming that there is no god but Allah whether we wetness to this realty or not.

Consequently, we see that it is a massage, which has a productive discussion leading to building up positive opinions.

May Allah (s.w.t.) help us to see the Truth and enable us to adopt it.

Wal hamdoo lilah rab ala lameen. (After all due praises are to Allah (s.w.t.) The Lord of Worlds.
