Importance of Salah

As Muslims, we all know the importance of Salah (prayer).

And the initiative aimed at making the children fulfil the conditions of the prayer as Islam requires the faithful to pray five times a day.

It encourages children to form the habit of offering prayers, and develop a love for performing Salah. 

Teach by Example & Make it Visual

Parents are the primary example to their children.

If the parents prioritize the prayer and the children saw the parent making wudu’ and offering the prayers they like to imitate them.
