If it isn't in the Quran then...

[orthodox_spin]

how do we go about reading namaz

[Down2Earth]

just do it the way your parents tell you to, it's the pakistani way

[Ismailtoca]

THe prophet.

[Lachrymose]

Read namaz the way our Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) read it...

[justarslan]

I thought it would be more interesting thread. Just follow the example of Muhammad (PBUH) for pray as other posters also said.

[saeedhk]

Follow the way our Prophet(PBUH) prayed.

That is the best way...we are supposed to emulate him (saw) and be his representatives, insha'Allah

People have been following him ever since the start.

*sigh* ofcourse.

Ok tell me how do you know your method of prayer is exactly the Prophet's method?

[Rana]

The form of salat you see now is derived from the sunna of the Holy prophet s.a.w

Sunna is much more reliable than because sunna has been followed since the time of the prophet and has been copied by the following generation after genaration. Hadith however was compiled properly a lot after the sad demise of the Prophet.

[shaykh1985]

Its contained in hadith....there are numerous verses in the Quran that tell us to follow the Prophets actions and not rely solely on the Quran...the Quran contains a lot of what while hadith give us a lot of the how...

I still wonder how hadith rejectors go about doing their Salat among numerous other things...
