This something even most Muslim don’t know about in their own holy book the Qur’an. These are copied straight out of Bukhari Vol 1.
488 – passing in front of a praying person annuls his prayer
489 – it’s a sin to pass in front of someone while they’re praying
660 – don’t raise from prayer before the Imam (Muslim cleric leading the formal, ritualized prayers), or Allah will turn your face into a donkey.
685 – if the prayer rows (of men) aren’t straight, Allah will alter your faces
690 – if the prayer rows aren’t straight, the prayer is no good
717 – if you look up during prayer, you’ll lose your eyesight
759 – if you don’t perform the bowing perfectly, your prayers are void
Hadith – Dawud
666-667 – Stand directly next to the person you are praying next to; do not leave a gap in between. I see the devil coming in through openings in the row just like a small black sheep.
Book 4, Hadith 299 – prayer would be cut off by the (passing of an) ass, woman, or black Dog.
Hadis 789 – An ***, a pig, a Jew, a Magian and a woman annuls a prayer.
Whoever omits the Asr prayer, all his (good) deeds will be lost.
“He who eats from the smelly plant [garlic or onion], let him come not near our mosque; the angels are bothered by that which bothers men”
Book #2, Hadith #44- Allah’s Apostle said, “You have to offer prayers perfectly five times in a day and night (24 hours).”
When leaving the toilet one should say a prayer aloud, for all to hear,
“O Allah! Bestow your forgiveness upon me, for I have shat.”
It is also taboo of getting urine on your skin & clothing especially during prayers, otherwise ALL your prayers are no good (as if you never did them).
You know for a merciful god that Allah is supposed to be, he sure is awefully particular with what he requires in prayers to him. For being a supposedly forgiving god, Allah sure is spiteful in rearranging facial features of believers. And talk about a burden just to make sure you pray just right so be heard by your god. Even missing 1 of the 5 prayers demands instant DEATH, as this boy found out in Mar 2016.
Muslims(as must everyone else) must honestly ask themselves, why would you choose to follow a god as spiteful and vengeful as that? OR would you rather choose to follow the God who doesn’t put any requirements on your prayers nor requires any form nor rituals in order to talk with Him. Rather this God is APPROACHABLE anytime, anywhere, and can hear your very thoughts. I speak of course about the God of Israel, Yahweh whom said the following within the Bible:
Matthew 6:5-13
But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.
Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV)
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Now doesn’t that sound more like a loving, merciful God? He places no restrictions, no form, no chant, no stance, and makes no threat of reprisal of any kind if you come to Him. Instead of demanding anything from us, the God of Israel gave His only Son Jesus to pay the price for us to become His adopted children. He holds that forgiveness out as a free gift to all who will simply believe in His Son Jesus. http://biblicalfoundations.weebly.com/islamic-prayer.html
