Praying five times a day
Praying five times a day
Apart from the spiritual aspect, praying five times a day at fixed times introduces routine in one’s life. The movements involved in the ritual provide a very light form of exercise and keeps the blood circulation going. The arrangement of prayers is such that those at the time of empty stomach are brief but those after meals are longer and give more exercise to the body in order to aid digestion after a heavy meal.
