Prayer-+Islam+and+Judaism

The Muslim prayer, The Salat, talks about what you will do for God. Like what you will sacrafice for him, and how you will sacrafice your time to pray to him. It also asks for Allah’s forgiveness, you want to say sorry for your sins and want Allah to forgive you. That is unlike the Judaism prayer, The Shema, which is more command like.

Islam: • In the Salat, you ask for forgiveness from Allah. Because you would like to get rid of your sins. Pretty much your saying sorry to god. //“O my Lord forgive me and have Mercy on me”//

• This prayer doesn’t just talk about God. It also mentions your prophet Muhammad. “O God send your mercy on Muhammad”

• While reading this prayer there are certain movements you must do, for each line there is a different position that you must say it in.

• Also when you pray you must pray in the direction of Mecca.

• The Salat is the prayer that the Muslims say 5 times a day, they stop whatever they are doing to pray to Allah.

• Before praying in the Islam religion you must wash your face, arms, feet hair, nose, mouth.
