A circular about prayers to the governors of all the provinces

Pearl of Wisdom

'Verily the Prophet of Allah (AS) addressed us one day, saying, O people, verily the month of Allah has come to you with benediction, mercy and forgiveness a month that is the best of months in the sight of Allah, whose days are the best of days, whose nights are the best of nights, and whose hours are the best of hours. It is a month wherein you have been invited to the banquet of Allah and have been made worthy of Allah's magnanimity. Your breaths during this month are considered glorification [of Allah], and your sleep worship. Your actions in it are accepted and your supplication answered ... Upon hearing this , I stood up and asked, ?O Prophet of Allah, what is the best of deeds to be performed in this month?' He replied, ?O Abu al-Hasan, the best of deeds in this month is to r strain oneself from all that Allah, Mighty and Exalted, has prohibited.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]

Letter 52 A circular about prayers to the governors of all the provinces

Lead the Zuhr prayer till the shadow of a wall becomes equal to the height of the wall, the Asr prayers can be performed till the sun is still bright and enough time of the day is left for a person to cover a distance of six miles. The Maghrib prayers should be performed when people break their fasts and when Hajj pilgrims return from Arafat. And the time for Ice prayers is when the red glow of the even twilight disappears from the West, till one-third of the night is still left. The morning prayers are to be performed when there appears enough light of the dawn for a man to recognize the face of his companion.

While leading the prayers make them so short that the weakest among you may not feel tired to follow you and his strength and patience may not be over strained.
