It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: "Allah enjoined the prayer upon the tongue of your Prophet ﷺ: Four Rak’ah while a resident and two Rak’ah when traveling".
The importance of prayer can also be seen from another perspective; it helps us stay connected with God even during difficult times or moments when we feel lost or overwhelmed by life’s challenges. By performing Salat regularly, we can find peace within ourselves and gain strength from God’s mercy and guidance in order to face any situation with courage and faith.
