Every act of worship that Allah commands to his servants is an act that has various benefits and a clear purpose and is not an act that is useless and not beneficial or even harmful but it is an act that brings various positive effects to his servant who practices it.

Therefore, let us understand what is the wisdom behind the acts of worship that are commanded to humans.

1. Salah (Prayer)

ٱتْلُ مَآ أُوحِىَ إِلَيْكَ مِنَ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ وَأَقِمِ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ ۖ إِنَّ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ تَنْهَىٰ عَنِ ٱلْفَحْشَآءِ وَٱلْمُنكَرِ ۗ وَلَذِكْرُ ٱللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَصْنَعُونَ

Read and follow (O Muhammad) what was revealed to you from the Qur'an, and establish prayer (with diligence); Indeed, the prayer prevents from abominable and evil deeds; and truly remembering Allah is greater (its benefits and effects); and (remember) Allah knows what you do.

2. Sawm (Fasting)

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ

O you who believe! You are required to fast as it was required of those before you, so that you may be righteous.

3. Zakah (Charity)

خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ صَدَقَةًۭ تُطَهِّرُهُمْ وَتُزَكِّيهِم بِهَا وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ ۖ إِنَّ صَلَوٰتَكَ سَكَنٌۭ لَّهُمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ

Take (a portion) of their wealth as alms (zakat), so that with it you cleanse them (from sin) and purify them (from bad morals); and pray for them, because indeed your prayer is peace for them. And (remember) Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

4. Hajj (Pilgrimage)

ٱلْحَجُّ أَشْهُرٌۭ مَّعْلُومَـٰتٌۭ ۚ فَمَن فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ ٱلْحَجَّ فَلَا رَفَثَ وَلَا فُسُوقَ وَلَا جِدَالَ فِى ٱلْحَجِّ ۗ وَمَا تَفْعَلُوا۟ مِنْ خَيْرٍۢ يَعْلَمْهُ ٱللَّهُ ۗ وَتَزَوَّدُوا۟ فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ ٱلزَّادِ ٱلتَّقْوَىٰ ۚ وَٱتَّقُونِ يَـٰٓأُو۟لِى ٱلْأَلْبَـٰبِ

(Time to perform worship) The Hajj is a few months that are known. Therefore, whoever has committed himself (with the intention of performing) the Hajj, then he must not interfere with his wife, and must not commit immorality, and must not argue, while performing the Hajj. And whatever good you do is known to God; and you should bring enough food because the best food is to protect yourself (from the shame of asking for alms); and fear Me, O people of understanding (who can think and understand it).

# data[].attributes.body
Prayer is one of the main and important acts of worship in Islam. It is one of the five pillars of Islam. Hushu' in prayer is one of the characteristics of believers as Allah SWT said:

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ ١ ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى صَلَاتِهِمْ خَـٰشِعُونَ ٢

"Indeed, the believer is successful, who is humbly in prayer." (Surah al-Mukminun, verses 1 to 2)

There are several ways for us to practice to achieve khushu' in prayer, namely:

1. Taharah (Purification: Wudu’/Tayammum)

Performing ablution perfectly can purify a person from minor hadas. The Prophet SAW encouraged his people to maintain cleanliness by ensuring a clean and fragrant body, in order to achieve peace of mind and devotion in worshiping Allah SWT.

2. Conditions for the Validity (Sah) of Salah

Purity and cleanliness of the body from major and minor impurities.

In Islam, Salah (prayer) is an essential act of worship, but there are allowances for flexibility in certain situations, particularly for travelers or those in specific conditions. These allowances include Qasr and Jamaʿ, which are modifications to the usual way of performing prayers.

Qasr (Shortening): Reduces the 4 rakʿah prayers (Dhuhr, Asr, Isha) to 2 rakʿahs for travelers.

Jamaʿ (Combining): Allows combining Dhuhr with Asr, and Maghrib with Isha, either at the earlier or later time, when traveling or in certain difficult situations.

Nawafil are additional, non-obligatory prayers that can be performed at any time, except during the forbidden times, such as the time after Fajr prayer until sunrise or time after Asr prayer until sunset. They serve to enhance the connection with Allah and can make up for any deficiencies in obligatory prayers.

During Illness, adaptations in posture and movements (sitting or lying down) are allowed, and prayers can be combined if necessary.
