IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, MOST GRACIOUS, MOST MERCIFUL
All praises is due to Allah. We praise Him, ask him, and seek his forgiveness.
We seek refuge in Allah from evils of ourselves and mischiefs of our deeds. Whomsoever Allah guides, cannot be misguided.
Peace and blessings be upon the Final Messenger Muhammed , on his family and his noble companions , Ameen...
[59.23] He is Allah, besides Whom there is no god; the King, the Holy, the Giver of peace, the Granter of security, Guardian over all, the Mighty, the Supreme, the Possessor of every greatness Glory be to Allah from what they set up (with Him).

The Word "La ilaha illa Allah"
- A good Word, Allah said -translation of the meaning-:
Allah sets forth a parable - A good word like a good tree, its root is firmly fixed, and its branches are high in the sky [14: 24]
- It is the Word of Tawheed and Sincerity (Ikhlas), which all the prophets have called to, from Adam A.S to our Prophet Muhammad [Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam],
Allah Most High said -translation of the meaning-:
And We have sent not a messenger before you but We reveal to him La ilaha illa Ana so worship Me [21: 25]
- It is the Word of Taqwa (Piety), according to Ibn Abbas -may Allah be pleased with both him and his father- and his student Mujahid in Allah's saying -translation of the meaning-:
And We made them abide by the Word of Taqwa (Piety)}, he says: It is the testimony of "La ilaha illa Allah" . { Jami` Al-Bayan fi Taweel Al-Qur`an (Tafsir) by At-Tabari (22254) }
- It is a Word whosoever it was his last utterance (speech) in this life enters Paradise. The Prophet (Salla Allaah alaihi wa Sallam) said:
"Whosoever had his last utterance "La ilaha illa Allah" will enter Paradise"
[narrated by Abu Dawod and others, and it is Hadith Hasan].
SALAH - PRAYER IN ISLAM
The Prophet pbuh says that: Salaat is the pillar of deen and the foundation of Islam. He who upholds salah has upheld Islam and he who leaves salah has left behind religion. (al-baihaqi)
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said "The person that observes prayer properly, the prayer itself, blesses him with good wishes."
The importance of salah;
Salah (prayer) is one of the five pillars of Islam. Such is that importance of salah that unlike any other commandment, Allah called the Prophet (pbuh) to the heavens to proscribe him with the five daily prayers. Initially, the commandment was for fifty prayers a day, but fearing that this would become a burden to the Ummah, the Prophet (pbuh) requested for it to be brought down to just five. Despite this, the rewards for keeping the prayers are as if we had prayed all fifty.
The daily prayers are a way for us to keep a close connection to our Creator. It is through salah that we can get our suplications answered and our needs fulfilled. When the companions of the Prophet (pbuh) were in need, they would turn to Allah in prayer. Salah is a way for us to show a commitment to our faith. Everytime we pray salah, we renew our commitment to Allah and relieve ourselves from the pressures of our daily lives.
A companion of Prophet (pbuh) came to him one day and asked him "What is the thing that Allah loves most?" Muhammad (pbuh) replied "The thing that Allah loves most is when his people pray salah on time." (bukhari)
May Allah strenghten our determination and steadfasteness in performing our salah and may we grow closer to our Creator through salah. Ameen.
Jazaakallahu Khairan to you my brothers and sisters for sharing with your friends.
