Muslims have five duties in life.
They are called the Five Pillars of Islam.
The second pillar is Salah,
the duty to pray five times a day.
Muslims say these prayers in Arabic
and go through a series of movements called Rak'ah.
The number of Rak'ah's will depend on which prayer is being performed.
Before Muslims pray, they must remove their shoes
and perform a special wash called Wudhu,
then they must make sure that their body is fully covered,
women should wear a headscarf.
Finally, they need to find a clean space in which to pray,
a prayer mat will do,
and must face in the right direction,
the direction of the Ka'bah in Makkah, this is called the Qibla.
Now let's see how the prayers are performed.
This series of movements is known as one Rak'ah,
and is repeated a number of times depending on the prayer.
Then, the rest of the prayer is continued.
After the prayer is complete, it is common for Muslims
to make du'a to God, asking for forgiveness and blessings.
The prayer is said in Arabic,
but the du'a can be said in any language.
And that's how Muslims perform their Salah.
