* Hadith about Mi'raaj * Gabriel took the Prophet at night from the Ka'bah to the mosque in Jerusalem on a buraq.* On reaching Jerusalem the Prophet along with other Prophets offered Prayers. (Al-Nasa'i, Sunan, K. al-Salah, 'Bab Fard al-Salah wa Dhikr Ikhtilaf al-Naqilin...' -Ed.) Gabriel then took him to the heavens and the Prophet met several great Prophets in different heavenly spheres. (See al-Nasa'i, Sunan, K. al-Salah, 'Bab Fard al-Salah' - Ed.) Finally, he reached the highest point in the heavens and was graced with an experience of the Divine Presence. On that occasion the Prophet received a number of directives including that Prayers were obligatory five times a day. (Al-Bukhari, K. Manaqib al -Ansar, 'Bab al-Mi'raj ; K. al-Tawhid, 'Bab Kallama Musa Taklima' - Ed.) Thereafter, the Prophet returned from the heavens to Jerusalem, and from there to the Holy Mosque in Makka. * other commands came much later * The believers are always described as those who pray. * Prayer is an integral pillar of Islam * The first things to be asked about on DOJ * A reason to enter hell * “‘What has caused you to enter Hell?’ * They will say: ‘We were not of those who used to offer the salah (prayers).’”[al-Muddaththir 74:42-43] * Differentiating factor between us and disbelievers is Salah. * ‘Abdullah ibn Mas‘ood (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: “Whoever does not pray has no religion.” * What to do when you dont feel like your heart is into praying? * The Munafiqeen used to not miss any prayers in the masjid otherwise people would know. * Given up Salah and have followed lusts” [Maryam 19:59]
