Memorizing Salat with Translation – First Priority Office Bearers

Goal: Ensure that by end of February 2022 all MKA office bearers know Salat with translation.

Salat is one of the five pillars of Islam. It is through Salat that we show our submission to Allah, physically and spiritually. One of the purposes behind Salat is to bring us closer to Allah. The theme of the 2021-2022 year for MKA USA approved by our beloved Huzhur (aba) is Living Connection with Allah. The first step in developing this connection is Salat.

It is obligatory on every Muslim to offer their five Salat every day. But we need to ask ourselves, do we actually understand the meaning of what we recite? Do we know the significance behind the words we are reciting? In order for us to connect with Allah Almighty, we must not only know the Arabic Salat but its translation. How can we truly be sincere in front of our Lord if we’re not sure what we are praying?

With that thought in mind, the National Taleem Department is launching an initiative to revise Salat with its translation for the year 2021-2022. Our objective is to ensure every Khuddam in our Majlis knows the Arabic Salat and understands its meaning.

Please revise Salat with its translation using the resources below and then take this 1min self-assessment survey.

Here are some resources to revise the Salat with translation:
