Shalat is the pillar of Islam
First,
let’s say thank to Allah swt and all praise to him. To the lord of the world,
the creator of everything in this universe who has given us the mercies and
blessing so we can attend this program in this school.
Secondly, peace is upon
to our prophet, Muhammad saw who has moved our soul from the bad character to
the good one, who has moved us from the darkness to the lightness in this
world.
Honorable
head master, honorable vice head master, honorable teacher, staff officer, and
my lovely sisters, brothers, and my friends.
Moreover,
I want to thank to brothers, sisters, and my friends who give me an opportunity
to speak in front of you guys under the title, prayer is pillar of Islam.
Usually
we know prayer as shalat. Shalat is the way to calm down the heart and clear
the spirit, also shalat is the way to communicate between person and the
eternal creator.
The
believers get the duty from Allah swt, in the morning and afternoon; begin
before the sunrise until after the sunset.
They
should always be in the way of Allah who is a great sublime, it means, with
doing shalat, read the verse when they stand, read tasbih when they ruku’ and
sujud, then read the shalawat on our prophet Muhammad saw when they tasyahud.
Truly,
shalat has the high place in Islam rather than the other worship. Because,
shalat is included in the pillar of Islam. Our prophet said: The main point of problem is Islam and the pillar of
Islam is shalat. Then the point of Islam is jihad fisabilillah.
Shalat
is the first revelation about worship which is obligated to Rasulullah without
any mediation in the night of isra’ mijra.
My
brothers, sisters, and my friends. Shalat is the last will and testament of
Rasulullah before he passed away. He said: keep your shalat and everything that
to be your responsibility.
A
man, who does shalat, cannot approach with Allah swt, except if he cleans from
bad character. Shalat, the way to clean our self, moreover we found the verse
which explain that shalat to go against a low deed and sinful.
Humility
or husyu, in prayer is necessity, it means with knowing by heart, perfect
remembrance, and truly attention. If a man does prayer without husyu, it
doesn’t effect for whatever.
Those
all my speech, may advantages for us, I apologize for my mistake. Thanks for
your attention.
Wassalamu’alaikum,
warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
