12. Give Salam

You then complete the solat by turning your head first over your right shoulder, saying: 

السَّلَامُ عَلَيكُم وَرَحمَةُ اللهِ

Assalamualaikum warahmatullah

Peace and blessings upon you

Then, repeat these words while turning your head over your left shoulder. 

13. Tertib

Tertib, or the correct sequence, is crucial in maintaining the validity of the prayer. It ensures that each movement and recitation is performed in the prescribed order, maintaining the essence and discipline of the prayer. If there's any confusion or uncertainty, seeking guidance from knowledgeable individuals or religious authorities can be beneficial. May your prayers always be performed with sincerity and adherence to the prescribed order.

It's crucial for Muslims to observe these daily prayers, fulfilling one of the fundamental pillars of Islam.

There are five daily fardhu prayers, each with its own number of raka’at:

Subuh-2 Rakaat

Zohor-4 Rakaat

Asar-4 Rakaat

Maghrib-3 Rakaat

Isyak-4 Rakaat
