Question:
He says: This phrase is frequently heard on the tongues of some people, and the most important thing is that a person prays. Is this sufficient in the Shari'ah?
Answer:
He prays after testifying that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and he acts in accordance with its meaning and its implications. Then he prays, because the prayer is part of the meaning of "there is no god but Allah." The prayer, zakah, and all the commands of Islam are included in the meaning of "there is no god but Allah." Yes.
