This prayer timetable gives Muslims the pattern of their day.In Islamic countries, the public call to prayer from the mosques sets the rhythm of the day for the entire population, including non-Muslims.The prayer ritual, which is over 1400 years old, is repeated five times a day by hundreds of millions of people all round the world.Carrying it out is not only highly spiritual,
but connects each Muslim to all others around the world, and to all those who have uttered the same words and made the same movements at different times in Islamic history.
The set prayers are not just phrases to be spoken.Prayer for a Muslim involves uniting mind, soul, and body in worship; so a Muslim carrying out these prayers will perform a whole,
series of set movements that go with the words of the prayer.Muslims make sure that they are in the right frame of mind before they pray; they put aside all everyday cares and thoughts,,,,
