Surah Al-Baqarah

Verse 43

2:43 Al-Baqarah

وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَآتُوا الزَّكَاةَ وَارْكَعُوا مَعَ الرَّاكِعِي

And establish ṣalāh (prayer) and give zakāh (alms) and perform rukūˋ (bow) with those who perform the rukūˋ (Al-Baqarah 2:43)

Surah Baqarah Verse 43

☘️And establish ṣalāh (prayer): The compulsory ones. And give zakāh (alms): What is obligated from wealth. zakāh is from zakā’ (الزكاء), meaning accretion and increase, because the zakāh profits wealth and purifies it. And ītā’ (الإيتاء) is giving.

☘️And perform rukūˋ (bow) with those who perform the rukūˋ: Rukūˋ is bowing and stooping the back for the purpose of exalting and revering the Lord of the worlds.  Bow down with those who bow hints towards the importance of teamwork. Muslims must learn how to work collectively in teams. In being united is our strength.

☘️Pray  with those who pray from the nation of Muḥammad (ﷺ), and his Companions, in congregation. This is a command for everyone to embrace Islām. The command to establish the prayer is a command to establish it with all its conditions, pillars, voluntary components and abidance with a sincere intention to Allāh.

☘️Ṣalāh is compliance and obedience to Allāh and praises to Him. And it is (compulsory) upon every person to comply to His Lord, obey Him, and not disobey Him. And similarly, the zakāh. It is (compulsory) upon every person to purify himself from all prohibitions, preserve himself, and guard himself from all that harms him. And this is compulsory upon every person.

🔮Salah is the act of bringing the servant to stand before his Lord. And when the servant stands before his Lord with devotion and sincerity, anything that is in himself from pride must be eliminated.
