Abstract

The study sheds light on the concept of the Arabic language and its effect on prayer. The Arabic language is the vessel within which the Quran and Sunnah may be understood. Islamic Shariah is represented by its two fundamental sources, the Quran and the Sunnah, both in the Arabic language, and implemented by prayer as one of the pillars of Islam. Therefor, this study aims to outline the rulings related to the concept of Arabic language as related to the Quran, as well as those regarding specific aspects of prayer such as Opening Takbir, reciting verses from the Quran, supplication, Tashahhud and Friday Khutbah in a language other than Arabic, and the effect of that on the validity of prayer.
