The Conditions, Pillars & Requirements of the Prayer

The Pillars of the Prayer are Fourteen.

The main points covered in this lesson:

Recap on last lesson and continuation:
The Fourth Pillar: The Bowing - Ar- Ruku’u
The Fifth Pillar: Rising from the bowing position.
The Sixth Pillar: Prostrating upon the seven limbs.
The Seventh Pillar: Sitting back up from prostration.
The Eighth Pillar: Sitting between the two prostrations.
The Ninth Pillar: Being in a state of Tranquility during all the acts of prayer.

– The hadīth of the Prophet ﷺ ‘I was ordered to prostrate in the seven limbs.’
‎– الاعتدال - There are two risings, one is from the bowing position where one stands after bowing and the other is the rising from prostration where one remains sitting. Both times refers to raising back up until the backbone is straight.
– If الاعتدال - the rising from Ar- Ruku’u and As-Sajdah is not done correctly then the prayer will be invalid.
– Refer to the Hadīth of the man that prayed badly. The Prophet ﷺ explained and taught the man how to pray and then said ‘Go back and pray for you have not prayed’. 
– A further narration of the Prophet ﷺ explaining the الاعتدال and its necessity in order for a person’s prayer to be valid.
– The Hanafi Madhab does not hold الاعتدال to be a pillar, which opposes the clear texts.
– The Ninth Pillar: Being in a state of Tranquility during all the acts of prayer.
– The legislative meaning of التطمئن - Tranquility.
– Explanation of Shaikh Muhammad Āmān Al-Jami of the Hadīth of the man that prayed badly.
