them are anecdotal, and some of them are actual. What is meant by the Sunnah is: except for the pillars and obligations.

Some jurists have reached the anecdotal Sunnahs to seventeen years, and the actual Sunnahs to fifty-five years.

The prayer is not invalidated by abandoning any of the Sunnahs, even intentionally. Other than the pillars and duties.

The difference between the pillar and the obligatory: that the pillar is not waived intentionally or inadvertently, rather it must be performed.

As for the obligatory: it is dropped by forgetfulness, and it is forced to do the prostration of forgetfulness.

Perhaps it is appropriate here to mention the pillars and duties of prayer, and then some of its Sunnahs, relying on what is in the text of “The Student’s Guide,” which is a well-known summary among the Hanbali jurists

first : The pillars of prayer

It is fourteen pillars as follows

1- Doing the fard on the able.

2- The opening takbeer  , which is “Allahu Akbar”.

3- Reciting Al-Fatihah.

4- Bowing, the least of which is to bend so that he can touch his knees with his palms, and the most complete of it is to extend his back flat and place his head towards him.

5- Rising from bowing.

6- Maintain moderation.

7- Prostrating and completing the prostration of his forehead, nose, hands, knees and the tips of his toes from the place of his prostration. And at least put a part of each member.

8- Getting up from prostration.

9- Sitting between the two prostrations. How did he sit? Enough, and the Sunnah is for him to sit on his left leg, erect the right and direct it towards the qiblah.

10- Tranquility, which is stillness in every actual corner.

11- The last tashahhud.

12- Sitting for the final tashahhud and the two tasleems.

13- The two salutations, which is to say twice: Peace and God’s mercy be upon you, and one salutation is sufficient in the supererogatory prayer, as well as in the funeral prayer.

14- The arrangement of the pillars, as we mentioned, so if he prostrated, for example, before bowing deliberately, his prayer is invalid, and by mistake he must go back to kneel and then prostrate.

 Scand: Prayer duties

The duties of the eight prayers  are as follows

1- Takbeer for non-ihram.

2- Saying: God hears the one who praises Him for the imam and for the individual.

3- Saying: Our Lord, praise be to You.

4- Saying “Glory be to my Lord the Most Great” once while bowing.

5- Saying: Glory be to my Lord, the Most High, once while prostrating.

6- Saying: Lord, forgive me between the two prostrations.

7- The first tashahhud.

8- Sitting for the first tashahhud.

Third: Sunnahs of verbal prayer

Sunnahs of verbal prayer  eleven years as follows

1- Saying after the opening takbeer: “Glory be to You, O God, and I praise You, and blessed be Your name, the Most High, Your grandfather, and there is no god but You.” It is called the opening supplication.

2- Seeking refuge.

3- Basmala .

4- Saying Amen.

5- Reciting the surah after Al-Fatihah.

6- Reciting aloud to the imam.

7- Saying the one who is not praying behind an imam after tashamid: “The filling of the heavens and the filling of the earth and the filling of whatever you want after that.” (And it is true that it is Sunnah for the person praying behind him as well).

8- What is more than one time in the bowing tasbeeh, i.e. the second and third tasbeehs and what is more than that.

9- Anything more than one time in prostration glorification.

10- He did not say more than one time between the two prostrations, “My Lord, forgive me.”

11- Praying in the last tashahhud for the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and his family, peace be upon them, and blessings be upon him and them, and supplication after him.

 Fourth: Sunnahs of verbs, called bodies:

• Raising hands with the opening takbeer.

• Raising hands when bowing.

• Raising the hands when rising from bowing.

• Put your hands down afterwards.

• Put the right over the left.

• He looked at his prostrating position.

• He separated him between his feet standing.

• He gripped his knees with his hands with his fingers spread wide in his bowing, extended his back in it, and placed his head towards him.

• Enabling the members of the prostration from the ground and directing it to the place of prostration except the knees, so it is disliked.

• Pulling his upper arms away from his sides, his stomach away from his thighs, and his thighs away from his legs, spreading him between his knees, straightening his feet, making the soles of their fingers apart on the ground, and placing his hands at the same level as his shoulders, spread out with the fingers joined.

• Iftarash is sitting between the two prostrations and in the first tashahhud, and tawark in the second.

• Placing the hands on the thighs spread apart with the fingers joined between the two prostrations, as well as in the tashahhud, except that he grips the little finger and ring finger of the right hand, shaves its thumb with the middle one, and points with its forefinger when remembering God.

•  Turning left and right in handing him over.
