A Brief Introduction to Tasbih
Prayer of Taseer at Fatimah is one of the two mosques in Kuwait that has a calling system. The mosque is built on a high place and was built by the Quraishah family. The mosque is located near Al-Rafid and has minarets and a qarmat. During Friday prayers, the Quraishah family organizes prayer tasbih of twenty-one congregations.
How to
recite Tasbeeh at Fatimah: There are two methods of reciting tasbih in order to
join wirelessness with Allah. In order to join wirelessness with Allah, start
reciting tasbih facing your villa. In order to recite Salah in the congregation,
face your villa. The tasbih must be recited slowly for it to be performed
properly. Salah is not performed with one voice but with three voices.
The method
of reciting tasbih in congregation begins with the Akbar. The Akbar means
worship or prayer. It is usually a call for worship or prayer to Allah. There
are different types of bars, the most commonly used are the sitting Akbar and
standing Akbar. Reciting tasbih with the sitting Akbar follows the same
procedure as the standing one except that you sit down in order to pray.
The tasbih
that is recited with the standing Akbar is also followed by prostration. The
foremost thing before prostration is due or the right prostration. The right
prostration is performed after facing Allah. After performing du'a, the person
standing up recites tasbih while raising their hands to pray (taharah). Allah
responds to the prayer through the angels.
Second
Sajdah: The second sajdah starts with reciting tasbih ten times, followed by
prostration. In order to recite tasbih ten times, one must stand with hands on the stomach. After standing, one must repeat the word "Allahu Akbar"
thrice. The prayer is completed after a brief pause.
Third
Sajdah: The third sajdah begins with prostration. The person standing in
prostration then says the first line of the data," Allahumma alikbarika wa
thumb" (Allah is Most Gracious and Merciful). " Allahumma" means
"oh God", while "thumma" means " Lord". The
person then asks for the blessings of Allah. The blessing is then repeated
thrice. After that, the person says the second line of the data which is,
"hibdahu la sharia".
The person
reciting Tasbeeh Beads must raise both hands while saying the first line,
"Allahumma alikbarika wa thumb" (Allah is Glorious and Merciful). On
the next line, the hands should be placed on the stomach butted forward to avoid
touching the thighs. This is done until the prayer is completed. The person
must then say the final line of the data which is, "hibdahu alka hafi ask
(Allah be pleased with me)". The entire process should be repeated until
the prayer is completed.
There are
many ways of reciting tasbihs such as with hands, arms, head, and mouth. Muslims
also use prayer beads, gold and silver prayer beads to recite dhikr. Dhikr is
recited in a way that is closer to the Original Arabic language. Prayer beads
play a very important role in dhikr as they enable the imams to clarify every
word in the prayer.
The
procedure to recite tasbih does not end with the prayer because the person has
to stand or sit straight in place before looking in front of him and reciting
the salah. After reciting the salah, the celebrant has to face the Qibla and
face towards the East. Towards the East, one should look, and then the person
has to say, "God is great, He loves his friends and children and is
pleased with them". The ritual of tasbih thus finishes with the recitation
of taste which again includes the exchange of prayer beads between the two
males and females and after that, the banquet is continued.
People who
go for tasbih beads have the option of going for a fixed or adjustable diktat. Fixed
diktat is done on certain dates such as the first, fifth and ninth of
Dhul-Fitr. For those who want to go for an adjustable diktat, it is done once a
year. Those who opt for an adjustable dikhah have to give their names or faces
to be entered on a list of those who wish to go for tasbih. The list is sent to
the khums (clerical officiant) who sends invitations for the celebration.
