Prayer

This topic gathers questions about salah, the daily prayer. Most of them are practical rather than theoretical. Readers ask when a prayer begins and ends, and what happens to one that was missed. Others ask what to do when something goes wrong partway through. The pages below cover the five daily prayers, prayer times, congregation and the mosque, Friday prayer, and travel. Every answer here is a sourced summary of a fatwa. Start with the five daily prayers if you are unsure where your question belongs.
