Significance of Daily Prayer in Islam
Every prayer session has different meanings to the practising Muslims. Fajr means breaking and trust in the morning, before Sunrise. Duhur and Asr are a reminder and awareness at the start of the day, and Maghrib is a token of appreciation at the end of the day. Isha concludes the day, and is a time of tranquillity and spiritual finish. It is not only that the sight of such moments in Dhaka keeps religious rhythm, but it also makes the communities in the capital unite in their religious devotion and purpose.
