Next I'll write about the pillar of Islam that addresses prayer. One of the pillars of Islam asks that Muslims pray five times a day. Our instructor says that God asks Muslims to pray five times a day because he wants them to live in close relationship with him and to remind them not commit Haram. The five prayers occur at these times of day: first light, noon, afternoon, sunset, and evening.
Part of this pillar mentions the weekly occasion for congregational prayer. Muslims congregate for prayer on Friday during the noon prayer time, usually in mosques. The pillar requires all men to attend Friday congregations but only welcomes woman to attend. Our instructor says that women can go but usually don't.
