Salah (salat) is the Arabic term for the ritual prayer that is obligatory for Muslims to perform five times a day. It forms one of the five pillars of Islam.,. The Islamic faith is based on the belief that individuals have a direct relationship with Allah. The world’s Muslims turn individually and collectively to Ka’aba in makkah, Islam’s holiest city, to offer five daily prayers at dawn, noon, mid-afternoon, sunset and evening. In addition, Friday congregational service is also required.
