I said my Shahada about 2 months ago and didn't learn to pray until about a week later.?

Question

Do I have to make up the prayers from that week? I didn't trust the "how to pray" websites online, so I had to wait until school started again to ask my friend? What do think?

Muslims only please!!!!!

Answer 1

good job sister.

I am not sure how to answer this question. I think you should go to a mosque to ask more knowledgable people.

I wish I had an answer that I am sure of.

Answer 2

Answer 3

Assallam mu alaikom Warah ma tullah hi ta'ala wabaratuh.

Alhamdullilah ! U has convert yourself to the True Religion - Islam- and become a Muslim. To do a prayer is not difficult. Let me guide U with some basic knowledge on how to perform a prayer.
1. Have your wuthu' ( Ablution) washing of body parts.
a. Wash your face 3x
b.Wash your right hand until elbow 3x
Wash your left hand until elbow 3x
c. Wash your forehead 3x
d. Wash your right ear then left ear 3x each
e. Wash your right feet until ankle and then left feet until ankle 3x each.

2.Prayer.
a. Position your self facing the kiblat ( direction towards Mecca)
b. Takbiratul ikhram ( recite the prayer in your heart then said ALLAH hu Akbar ) your both hand must be at the side of your body and when U recite the prayer raise both hands to your face level and bring down the hand when U mention ALLAH HU AKBAR to your naval and place both hand on top of each other.
c.If U could recite Doa iftitah ( Allah hu akbar kabira......) U may do so but make sure U do not say it out only in your heart ).
d. Recite Fatihah ( Alhamdullillahi rabbil aalamin......) this surah is compulsory and must recite in Arabic language, U cannot use the translation version. Must be from the Quran. After the surah , U may recite another surah. If U do not know other surah, Fatihah alone is accepted.
d. Repeat (b) sequence without reciting anything except Allah hu akbar. Bend down your body to half standing position ( bend down from waist upward to half standing position, your feet still remain standing ) then recite Subhana rab biyal azimi wabihamdi (3x)
e. stand up with both hand movement as per ( b) and recite Sami allah hu li man hamidah.
f. Bring your self down to crouch position with your fore head, palms, knees, and toes touches the prayer mat and recite Sub ha na rab biyal aala wa bi hamdi ( 3x )
g.Bring up your body to sitting position with both legs bend over under your tigh and rest your butt sitted on your ankle and as U move recite Allah hu akbar. and recite rabirfirgh li warhamni ( if U do not know just recite subhanallah walhamdullilah allah hu akbar (3x) this process( sitting ) is only for a second.
h. Then recite Allah hu akbar and bring down your body to crouch position ( repeat f ).
This whole process called one rakaat ( 1 set ) As such, if U need to perform 4 ra kaat, then U have to repeat the sequence 4 times continuosly. However, if U need to end the solat (prayer) the last sequence after sequence h U need to repeat sequence g and recite Tasyhahud ( Atta hi yatul ) and end the prayer after Tasyahud with a Salam. Turn your face to the right and recite Assallam mu laikom warah ma tullah and the to the left and recite Assallam mu alaikom warah matullah. That's the end of your solat (Prayer ). Try it now. Allah will guide U.

Wassallam mu alaikom warah ma tullah hi wabaraka tuh.

Answer 4

Allah Hu Akbar Kabira
