That is the time that you really feel a sense of great closeness and devotion to God.
And as I was telling you earlier, it's a time that your mind is under your heart for a change, right?
The only position, physical position
that your mind is actually under your heart and you really have a chance to pour your emotions out and to connect deeply to God.
It's the prayer of all of the prophets.
Jesus, peace be upon him, is described even biblically as falling on his face in prayer.
And so it really is, I think, the most intimate moment that you get with God and the deepest part of the prayer.
The word masjid,
which is mosque in Arabic means place of sujood, place of prostration.
So think of the rest of prayer as an introduction to that particular part of the prayer where you really immerse yourself.
Not that you shouldn't be immersed in your prayer throughout, but when you're in sujood, when you're in prostration, that's where you're really closest and most connected to God.
So we do that.
And so some prayers are two units.
Well, the first prayer of the day, which is before sunrise, the earliest prayer, is two units.
The second prayer, which is around noon, is four units.
And then afternoon, another four units.
And then the sunset prayer is three units.
And then the evening prayer is four units.
So each prayer has a different number of units to it and some voluntary prayers that surround it.
When you come back up, you express also a form of greeting towards God and channeling your prayers and your blessings towards God.
