FAJR PRAYER 1. Qiyam - Stand straight and focus your gaze on the place where your forehead will prostrate; Nothing said here. It is offensive to close your eyes while praying.( In Reliance of the Traveller - recommended to utter intention here, before the obligatory (fardh) non-uttered intention during takbiratul ihram.) |
|
|
2.Takbiratul Ihram - (first allahu akbar). As for the timing of the Niat / Intention (not uttered), it should occur while saying Allahu Akbar. This simply means that while saying Allahu Akbar you should be conscious that you are praying fajr (substitute for other times here) and that it is an obligation (fardh). By implication, the non-uttered Niat is in a language you understand. |
|
|
3. Doa Iftitah - Read Doa Iftitah: Followed by Taawwuz, Al Fatihah, and a Quran Surah / Short verses. The minimal valid auditability for saying "Allahu akbar," reciting the Koran, and all invocations (dhikr), is that one can hear them oneself, given normal hearing ands lack of extraneous noise. |
