Asr is one of the 5 mandatory (Fard) daily prayers for every Muslim. The 5 mandatory prayers, also known as Salah or Namaz, are the second pillar of Islam and a key component of an Islamic life. Asr is known as the afternoon prayer, since this is the time of day during which it takes place.
Benefits of Asr Prayer:-
- “The angels of the night and the angels of the afternoon go to you. And they gather at dawn prayer and Asr prayer. Then the angel who guards you up to Allah Almighty asks them -and Allah knows their circumstances (His servants) -, “In what state did you leave my servants?” The angels replied, “We leave them in a state of being set up the prayer. So when we go to them, they are in prayer. “ (Sahih al-Bukhari 7429)
- Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “He who The observes Al-Bardan (i.e., Fajr and ‘Asr prayers) will enter Jannah.”[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].(Riyad as-Salihin 1047)
- Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “He who performs Salat (prayers) before the rising of the sun and before its setting, will not enter the Hell.”[Muslim]. (Riyad as-Salihin 1048)
When to perform Asr Prayer?
Narrated Muhammad bin `Amr:
We asked Jabir bin `Abdullah about the prayers of the Prophet (ﷺ) . He said, “He used to pray Zuhr prayer at midday, the `Asr when the sun was still hot, and the Maghrib after sunset (at its stated time). The `Isha was offered early if the people gathered, and used to be delayed if their number was less; and the morning prayer was offered when it was still dark. ” (Sahih al-Bukhari 565)
Number of Rak’ah in Asr Prayer:-
Type | Rak’ah |
Sunnat | 4 |
Farz | 4 |
Way to perform 4 Rak’ah Farz:-
if you want to know the way of performing 4 Rak’ah Farz of Asr Prayer then Follow the below steps to start your prayer.
1. Standing (Qiyam) :-
It is obligatory to a person to pray the Salah in Standing position as This is clearly mentioned in the Quran (Surah al-Baqarah verse 238) and many authentic hadiths (Sahih Bukhari: 6667)
Observe the ˹five obligatory˺ prayers—especially the middle prayer—and stand in true devotion to Allah. (Surah al-Baqarah verse 238)
And this is a Pillar of Salah for those who are able to stand if he or she is unable to stand due to physical disability or any other reason then he or she should pray while sitting if he or she is unable to sit then he or she should pray while lying on one side or any position whom he or she able to capable of praying. and this is mention in many authentic hadiths (Sahih Bukhari: 1117)
Narrated `Imran bin Husain:
had piles, so I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about the prayer. He said, "Pray while standing and if you can't, pray while sitting and if you cannot do even that, then pray Lying on your side." (Sahih Bukhari 1117)
2. Intension (an-Niyah) for Prayer
Intension of the Salah is basically that you have to know what you are doing because we have to know that what i am praying i.e. Zuhr, Asr etc. unlike we can not just directly say Allahuakbar and starts praying this is invalid. So, the Intension is very important.
"The reward of deeds depends upon the intention and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended." (Sahih al- Bukhari 54 and 1)
The Prophet (S.A.W.) never instructed us to audibly or inaudibly state intentions for any act of worship, and the Companions (R.A.) did not do this either. So we should make the intension(Niyyah) of the prayer in our hearts.
2. Takbeer-e-Tehrima (Opening Takbeer- saying Allahu akbar) :-
Now i am standing up, i do intension(niyyah) for prayer and now we say takbeer i.e. Allahu akbar (Allah is greatest) (Reference- Sahih Bukhari 6251) and raise our both hands up to the level of shoulders or ears and then fold our hands over chest, right hand over the left hand while in the standing position.(Reference- Sahih Bukhari 740, Sahih Muslim 401, ibn khuzaimah 1/243, Abu Dawood 726 and 759)
Narrated Sahl bin Sa`d: The people were ordered to place the right hand on the left forearm in the prayer. Abu Hazim said, "I knew that the order was from the Prophet (ﷺ) ."(Sahih Bukhari 740)
Wa'il b. Hujr reported: He saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) raising his hands at the time of beginning the prayer and reciting takbeer, and according to Hammam (the narrator), the hands were lifted opposite to ears. He (the Holy Prophet) then wrapped his hands in his cloth and placed his right hand over his left hand. And when he was about to bow down, he brought out his hands from the cloth, and then lifted them, and then recited takbeer and bowed down, and when (he came back to the erect position) he recited:" Allah listened to him who praised Him." And when he prostrated, he prostrated between his two palms.(Sahih Muslim 401)
Narrated Tawus: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to place his right hand on his left hand, then he folded them strictly on his chest in prayer.(Abu Dawood 759)
Some Questions you may have:-
Q1:- where to raise hand (shoulder or ear)?
There are two authentic hadiths in Sahih Muslim the first one is Sahih Muslim 390a (next to the shoulder) and second one is Sahih Muslim 390b (next to the ears) so you have question which one is right? simple the palm should be next to your shoulders and fingers should be at the level of ears this is how we combine two authentic hadiths(Confirmed by many scholars).
>> The most authentic way to put your hand is on chest according to many scholars and authentic hadiths (hadiths given above)
3. Looking at the Place of Prostration:-
A person who is praying should have attentiveness in his prayer and should avoid everything that may divert his/her attention because we are facing Allah. And as it is ordered by our prophet Mohammad SAW that he or she should look towards the place of his prostration. He or she should not look to the right or the left.(Sahih Bukhari 3291, 750)
Narrated `Aisha(R.A.):
I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about one's looking here and there during the prayer. He replied, "It is what Satan steals from the prayer of any one of you."(Sahih Bukhari 3291)
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "What is wrong with those people who look towards the sky during the prayer?" His talk grew stern while delivering this speech and he said, "They should stop (looking towards the sky during the prayer); otherwise their eyesight would be taken away."(Sahih Bukhari 750)
4. Read Dua of Istiftah (Opening Dua):-
After holding Hand and seeing towards the place of prostration we have to read dua of Istiftah there are many dua of istiftah which you can read one of the most popular dua of istiftah is :-
سُبْحَانَكَ اللّٰهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ ، وَتَبَارَكَ اسْمُكَ ، وَتَعَالَىٰ جَدُّكَ ، وَلاَ إِلٰهَ غَيْرُكَ
Subḥānaka Allāhumma wa bi-ḥamdika wa tabāraka-smuka wa taʿālā jadduka wa lā ilāha ghayruk.

(Quran 1:1-7)

‘Ata’ narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira who said that one should recite (al-Fatiha) in every (rak’ah of) prayer. What we heard (i. e. recitation) from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), we made you listen to that. And that which he (recited) inwardly, we (recited) inwardly for you. A person said to him: If I add nothing to the (recitation) of the Umm al Qur’an (Surat al-Fatiha), would it make the prayer incomplete? He (AbuHuraira) said: If you add to that (if you recite some of verses of the Qur’an along with Surat at-Fatiha) that is better for you. But if you are contented with it (Surat al-Fatiha) only, it is sufficient for you. (Sahih Muslim 396b)
Abu Qatadah (R.A.) reported that: The Prophet (S.A.W.) would recite Al-Fatihah and some surah in the first two Rakaat of the noon prayer, and only Al-Fatihah in the last two Rakaat. Sometimes he would recite some verses. The first Rakaat’s recital would be longer than the second. That was how it was done in the afternoon and morning prayers. (Abu Dawud: 78)
9. Rukoo (The Bowing) :-

Ibn `Umar said: “The Prophet (ﷺ) used to do the same.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 739)
