==Number of Prayer==


The [[Qur'an]] only mentions three prayers. It is the [[hadith]] that put the number at five.
Most of the Five Pillars are absent from the [[Qur'an]]. Thus it only mentions three daily prayers; salat al-Fajr (dawn prayer),<ref name="2 prayers">"''who believe! let those whom your right hands possess, and the (children) among you who have not come of age ask your permission (before they come to your presence), on three occasions: before morning prayer; the while ye doff your clothes for the noonday heat; and after the late-night prayer: these are your three times of undress: outside those times it is not wrong for you or for them to move about attending to each other: Thus does Allah make clear the Signs to you: for Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom. ''" - {{Quran|24|58}}</ref> salat al-Isha'a (night prayer)<ref name="2 prayers"></ref> and salat al-Wusta (the middle prayer, now al Zuhr).<ref>"''Guard strictly your (habit of) prayers, especially the Middle Prayer; and stand before Allah in a devout (frame of mind). ''" - {{Quran|2|238}}</ref>. It is the [[hadith]] that put the number of daily prayers at five.
