• N.B. A MALE's satr is from the NAVEL to the KNEE (including knee).<br />
• And a FEMALE'S satr is her ENTIRE BODY except her FACE and HANDS to the WRIST.<br />
• TAHARAH (cleanliness) means one's body should be free from all NAJAASAT. (Filth and Impurities).<br />
• There are TWO types of NAJAASAT. One HAQEEQI, the other HUKMI.<br />
• NAJAASATE HAQEEQI is the NAJAASAT which CAN BE SEEN (External impurity) ea. urine, blood,<br />
stool and wine.<br />
• NAJAASATE HUKMI is that Najaasat (impurity and filth) which cannot be seen, e.g.<br />
(a) HADATH (b) JANABAH.<br />
• HADATH: to be without WUDHU.<br />
• JANABAH: state of a person on whom GHUSL. or bath has become COMPULSORY.<br />
• It is necessary that one's body should be free from both types of NAJAASAT before performing Salaah.<br />
• One should face towards the KA'BAH SHARIF when performing Salaah.<br />
• We are ordered to face KA'BAH SHARIF because the KA'BAH is the House of Allah, which is in the city<br />
of MECCA. One must always keep one's chest towards the KA'BAH while performing Salaah..<br />
• The direction of the HOLY KA'BAH SHARIF is called the QIBLAH.<br />
