Understanding the Postures of Prayer
In the prayer there are certain basic postures which are repeated in sequence. Following is an illustrated explanation of those postures. http://path-to-peace.com/p04.gif Niyah & Tas-meeh (To Praise) This posture occurs at 2 points in the prayer: - When making intention (niyah) right at the beginning - When standing up from Ruku (Tah-meed or genefluction) http://path-to-peace.com/p01.gif Takbir This posture marks the start of the prayer This posture occurs: 1 times in a 2 Rahah prayer 2 times in a 3 Rakah prayer & Witr Prayers 1 times in a 4 Rakah prayer http://path-to-peace.com/p02.gif Standing in Prayer Keeping the gaze fixed to the ground, men should place their right hand over the left one in the following manner: Grab the wrist of the left hand by forming a ring with the LITTLE FINGER (pinky) and the THUMB around it placing the palm of the right hand on top of the left hand and extending the 3 middle fingers over the left arms wrist.

The men should sit on their left foot pointing to the right side as shown and the right foot straight, resting on its toes. This posture occurs: 3 times in a 2 Rakah prayer 5 times in a 3 Rakah prayer & Witr Prayers 6 times in a 4 Rakah prayer Saying Shadah in Ta-Shah-hud position The difference between Jalsah and Ta-Shah-hud is that in the Jalsah position the worshipper stays silent and this is in-between sajdahs. Whereas the Ta-Shah-hud position marks the end of 2 rakahs and in this position the worshipper recites. In the second and fourth rakah we recite during which we utter the shadah, while saying the shadah one is required to raise the index finger of the right hand as shown. This posture occurs: 1 times in a 2 Rakah prayer 2 times in a 3 Rakah prayer & witr prayer 2 times in a 4 Rakah prayer http://path-to-peace.com/p_002.jpg The Salam When ending the prayer the head is first moved to the right hand side keeping the gaze on the right shoulder and then to the left keeping the gaze on the left shoulder.

This is done through Dua. Both hands are joined together at the palm and raised up and then the worshipper may ask to their hearts content.
