AHADITH ABOUT PRAYERS

Abu Al-Nadhr said that Rasulullah SAW said, "If the one crossing in front of a praying person knew what sin is upon him, it would be better for him to wait forty than walk across.” Abu Al-Nadhr didn’t know if he said forty days, months, or years. All of the lengths are extremely long and express the graveness of walking in front of someone while they are praying.

YOUR ASSIGNMENT

Create a table that has the prayers and rakahs in each prayer. Use the information and template from Slide 3. It can look very similar to it, but you have to make it by hand. It has to take up a full sheet of paper. Make it look nice, meaning NO NOTEBOOK PAPER.

The quiz next time will be an empty table that you will have to fill in. Doing this table will be a good way to prepare for that quiz.
