Prayer Movements/postures and its physical benefits Why we pray?

Islam is a religion that is actually more than a religion. It is a way of life. While for many religion is something practiced on a weekly basis, for Muslims it is a way of life that flows into every aspect of their being. Islam is concerned with healthy believers; healthy in mind, body and spirituality. The way we pray demonstrates this.

“Verily, the prayer is enjoined on the believers at fixed hours”. (Quran 4:103) “And I did not create Jinn and humankind except to worship Me Alone” (Quran 51:56)
