There are many worshippers who disobey their parents, do not clothe themselves according to Islamic law, swear, backbite, tell tales, speak of immodest things, hurt the feelings of others, violate people’s rights, or engage in interest-based transactions, etc.

Allah Almighty said salah prevents from evil and indecency, and this is certainly, undoubtedly, completely true. Why then, does the salah of these worshippers not prevent them from evil actions? The question we need to ask ourselves first is: Can a person who truly offers salah be somebody who lies, curses, tells tales, earns unlawful money, watches films and dramas, listens to music, shaves his beard, or trims it less than a fist-length?

Salah does prevent one from evil acts. Unfortunately, it is our salah itself that contain shortcomings, and this stops us from becoming righteous. Our salah is full of mistakes and errors, and as a result, we find we still involve ourselves in evil and indecency.

We must review our salah, learn of its outward and inward dimensions, and perfect our ablution and ghusl. If we offer salah in the true sense, in a state of purity, with humility, whilst keeping all relevant manners in mind; اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه we will witness its blessings.

Salah offered properly will certainly remove the outward and inward effects of sin, leading to us becoming righteous Muslims and our character becoming a reflection of the Sunnah اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه.

Now, let’s ask ourselves: Do we know what the inward and outward manners of Salah are? How and where can we learn about this? There are some we will discuss now, but to properly learn how to offer Salah, we must take time out.
