Salaah: Meaningful Prayer

What the words we say, and the Movements we do in Salaah really mean

Takbeer Tahreema at the beginning of Salaah/namaz/prayer:

‘Allahu akbar’ means - ‘Allah is greater’.

We say this at the beginning of our Salaah, and by saying it – we are telling ourselves that ‘Allah is greater’ than anything else in our lives. So now we need to focus on Allah in our prayer.

Rukoo’ (Bowing) – Subhaana Rabbiy al-’ADheem -

Subhaan comes from the root word Sabaha = it Floated.

Anything which is constantly Floating or Gliding.

Meaning: something which does not sink or fall – but keeps in its high position.

This is why Allah says; ‘Subhaan Allah’ about Himself when the disbelievers slander Him (i.e. by accusing Him of having a son, or daughters etc.)

Subh = Perfection, Gliding/floating above all falsehood and evil.

Subh-AAN = ABUNDANT/LOADS of Perfection.

So by saying; Subhaana Rabbiy = Abundant Perfection (to)

Rabb-IY ( ربي ) [MY Master].
