Lord and perform two Sajdas simultaneously. During the Sajda the under-mentioned formula should be repeated a number of times imagining inwardly that Allah (Subhaanahu Wata’aalaa) was present right there, seeing and hearing everything, and we were addressing the words directly to him.

Subhaana rabbiyal a’laa.

Glory be to my Lord, the Most High

While reciting these words in the Sajda, also, we should try sincerely to call forth within ourselves the realization of our abject helplessness and humility and the Supreme Might and Magnificence of the Lord. The deeper and stronger the realization, the better and truer will be the Namaz for this sentiment constitutes the very, life and soul of worship.

This completes one Rak’at. All the remaining Rak’ats are to be offered similarly except that (sub-haanaka-Allaahumaa) is recited only in the first Rak’at.

When we sit during a Namaz, or at the end of it, we recite (at-tahiyaat) which, indeed, is

its essence and substance.

Atthiyaatu lilaahi was salawaatu wattaiyyabaatu, as salaamu alaika ayyuhan nabeeyu wa rehmatul laahi wa bara kaatuh, as salaamu alainaa wa alaa ibaadil laahis saliheen, ash-hadu al-laa ilaaha il-lal-laahu, wa ash-hadu an-na Muhammadan abduhu wa rasooluh.

The most blessed greetings, the purest and most sincere inclinations unto Got. Peace be with thee, O Prophet, as well as the mercy of Allah (Subhaanahu Wata’aalaa) and His blessings. Peace be with us also, and the pious servants of the Lord. I attest that there is no one is worthy of worship and obedience but Allah (Subhaanahu Wata’aalaa) and I attest that Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is His servant and Apostle.

If a Namaz consists of three or four Rak’ats, when we sit after the second Rak’at only the above invocation is recited, and, at the end of the last Rak’at, the Durood Sharif and a prayer are also added to it. The Durood Sharif runs as follows:

Allaahnmaa sal-li alaa Muhammadin wa alaa aal-I-Muhammadin kamaa sal-laita alaa Ibraaheema wa alaa a’al-I-Ibraaheema innaka hameedum majeed.

O Allah (Subhaanahu Wata’aalaa), bless Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and his posterity (or followers) as Thou hast blest Abraham and his posterity (or followers); Verily, Thou art the Praiseworthy,

the Majestic.

Allaahumma baarik ala Muhammadin wa alaa aal-I-Muhammadin kamaa baarak ta alaa Ibraaheema wa alaa a’l-i-Ibraaheem in-naka hameedum majeed.

O Allah (Subhaanahu Wata’aalaa), magnify Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and his posterity (or followers) as Thou hast magnified Abraham and his posterity (or followers); Verily, Thou art the Praiseworthy), the Majestic.
