    Firstly, I would like to clarify that the Quran does not

    instruct Muslims to offer prayers. I do not know how

    Mohammad was praying because I was not over there

    but I do know one thing with confidence from the

    Quran that Mohammad was completely unaware

    present kind of Zoroastrians Nimaz and Jews prayers.

    How come Mohammad could give his nation thepresent form of prayers which is the main cause of

    the blood shed in the mosques and disintegration in

    the Muslim society? This worship has destroyed the

    unity of the Muslims. Do you think Mohammad couldgive his nation dissimilar rituals of worshipping which

    is the main cause of hatred and disintegration among

    the Muslims on account of following reasons?

    Dfferent Nimaz or prayers for Shiah and Sunni.

    Different Azan [call for pray] for Sunni and

    Shiah.

    Different kind of wadoo for Sunni and Shiah

    The below mentioned logical questions, about

    Nimaz, or prayers always cause puzzlement in my

    mind. Would you please ask your learned Shiah and

    Sunni Imams to provide me answers of my

    apprehensions? [Condensed from my book titledAdministrative and the Economy system of the

    Quran.

    Q1 - Allah authoritatively declares through various verses;

    the Quran presents the code dealing with the practical life

    of humans, making it easy for them to manage their

    normal, daily routines. However, if a person asks the

    Islamic priests, the command for practicing five daily

    prayers does not exist in the last revelation, they,

    immediately, come out with their typical response, Onecannot find everything in the Quran. For this particular

    subject, one has to consult Ahadith andSunnah.

    Dont you think, this weird and bizarre statement comingfrom you, the priesthood, is not a deceptive answer, a

    derogatory declaration, and defiance against Allahs

    proclamation, when He proclaims, We have revealed

    the complete code of life for the entire humanity?

    If one further argues that, in the case of

    inheritance, Allah went into the details of shares

    for each family member, and used fractions like 1/2and 1/6th to guide the people. Why then, there is

    not even a single passing reference about the

    prayers and supplications or for that matterDua inthe last revelation of Allah? If these are so

    important and provide the only ladder to the

    coveted Junnah [paradise], then why Allah doesnot mention even minor details of daily prayers in

    the Quran? Would you please like to answer that

    query?

    Q2 - Allah has provided clear information

    about the month of fasting in the Quran; then

    why, the same Allah, ignores the importanttopic, pertaining to the ritual ofSallat? Do you

    have a rejoinder for that one?Q3 - Why the Quran does not specify

    timings for prayers? Who created these and

    why? Would you like to comment on that?

    Q4 - If the Iranian Nimazor supplication is an essential

    element ofAl-Deen, then why the names of five daily

    prayers: Fajar, Zohar,Asar, Mugrab and Isha are non-existent in Allahs final Book? If these are non-existent in

    the Quran, then wherefrom did these originate, and who

    was the originator? How do you view that important

    topic?

    Q5 - Why the Quran is completely silent about the

    number of the component rakats [modules] of various

    prayers such as Sunnat, Fard, Nafal, Vitar, and Traveh?

    Where did these come from, and who were the

    perpetrators of such blasphemy? Do you have any

    answer?

    Q6 - Why does the Quran not identify the verses suitable for

    recitation in each rakatof every prayer? What do you say about

    that?

    Q7 - Atta-Hyatt, an essential component to be recited before

    the completion of each module of prayer, consisting of

    two Rakats, is not available in the Quran. Who wrote and

    introduced this Arabic passage for the Nimaz, [prayer] and howdid they dare to equate this human insertion with the text of

    Allah? Come out with your response!

    Q8 - Where does the Quran mention that recitation ofSurah

    Al-Fatiah is compulsory in everyRakat of each Nimaz? How do

    you look at that aspect of Iranian Nimaz?

    Q9 - If one points out, well theFaradmodules of all prayers are forAllah, and the Sunnatcomponent is for Mohammad, the Muslim

    priests would gladly agree. Now, here a question pops up; the

    companions of Mohammad, during his lifetime, used toperform Faradfor Allah, but what did they used to do during Sunnat?

    It seems ridiculous for the last Messenger to declare his personalprayer. Did he use to sit in front of his praying companions, while they

    performed the ritual in his name? Conversely, it meansduringFaradthey bowed down to Allah, but during the performanceofSunnat, they doubled over in front of Mohammad. It is evident that

    along with worshipping Allah, they offered adulation to Mohammad by

    executing his Sunnat, but it could have never happened, as it wouldtantamount to challenging Allahs unique and exclusive position within

    the universe. Therefore, the Sunnatprayer constitutes an antithesis ofAllahs declaration of solitary existence [Towheed]. Would you like to

    contradict the above statement?

    Q10 - The termAllah-o-Akhabaris a repetitive and

    essential constituent of all prayers, but why it does not

    appear anywhere in the Quran? Have you ever thoughtabout that?

    Q11 - All Muslim sects claim that Sallator

    prayers,without Qayyam, Rakooh and Sajood, areincomplete, but all of them execute funeral prayers

    [supplication not recommended by the Quran] without

    those essential elements, Rakooh and Sajood. Is it

    possible, Allah could come up with such contradictory

    commands? How do you explain that paradox?
