61 - SECOND VOLUME, 20th LETTER

This letter, written to Tahir Badahshi, conveys the virtues in namaz, its arkan (precepts) and conditions, sunnats, adabs and tadil-i arkan:

May hamd-u-thana be to Allahu ta'ala! Salamat to the good people whom He loves! The letter which you sent from Junpur has arrived here. We are sorry to know that you have been ill. We are awaiting the news informing of your recovery. Send us the letter informing of your recovery by those who will come here. Work hard for your task! Write to us about the hals which you will be experiencing! O My Dear Brother! This world is the place for work. The next world is the place for getting wages. Strive to do pious actions! The most useful of these actions, the most superior worship is to perform namaz. Namaz is the archstone of the din. It is the miraj for Believers. Then, one should do one's best to perform it well. One should observe its precepts, its conditions, its sunnats and adabs in a manner liked and suitable. When performing namaz, one should be careful about its tumaninat [keeping all one's limbs motionless in ruku (bowing during namaz), in sajda (prostration), in qawma (standing for a while after straightening up from the bowing position), in jalsa (sitting for a while between the two sajdas), and about the tadil-i-arkan (to remain motionless for a while after becoming calm at these four places)]. Many people, paying no attention to these, have been ruining their prayers of namaz. They have been neglecting the tumaninat and the tadil-i arkan. It was informed that they will be tormented. When namaz is performed correctly the hope of salvation will increase. For, the archstone of the din will then have been erected. The plane to fly to endless bliss will have been boarded.
