NOT TO PRAY TO SHOW OFF
So woe to those who perform prayer, and are forgetful of their
prayer, those who show off. (Qur'an, 107:4-6)

TO RECITE THE QUR'AN IN THE PRAYERS
Say: 'Call on Allah or call on the All-Merciful, whichever you call
upon, the Most Beautiful Names are His.' Do not be too loud in
your prayer or too quiet in it, but try to find a way between the two.
(Qur'an, 17:110)

TO BOW AND PROSTRATE ONESELF
You who believe! Bow and prostrate and worship your Lord, and
do good, so that hopefully you will be successful. (Qur'an, 22:77)
Keep up prayer and give alms and bow with those who bow.
(Qur'an, 2:43)
Say: 'Believe in it or do not believe in it.' Certainly, when it is
recited to them, those who were given knowledge before it fall on
their faces in prostration. (Qur'an, 17:107)
So glorify your Lord with praise and be one of the prostrators.
(Qur'an, 15:98)

TO BE CONTINUOUS IN PRAYERS
Instruct your family to perform prayer, and be constant in it. We
do not ask you for provision. We provide for you. And the outcome
rests on doing your duty. (Qur'an, 20:132)
Safeguard the prayer—especially the middle one. Stand in
obedience to Allah. (Qur'an, 2:238)

TO INSTRUCT ONE'S FAMILY TO PRAY
Instruct your family to perform prayer, and be constant in it. We
do not ask you for provision. We provide for you. And the outcome
rests on doing your duty. (Qur'an, 20:132)
