I have posted an item already, regarding my reluctance to join the islam world. This is mainly down to the extremist morons, who are seen as representitives of all Muslim, a matter that much of the modern world needs to be educated on.

My question here is, a simple one too....I am disabled, i am unable to kneel down to pray, what happens when prayer time is upon me...and what do i do?

Ma sha allah, Islam is a simple religion not extreme in the least.

Salaam alaikum to all,

With a population of 1.7 Billion, name a hundred fanatics (that you believe have hijacked Islam, and then estimate the number of their followers, it is absolute minuscule. These people don�t represent Islam, I wont say Islam is a peaceful, it was spread by the sword (let anyone who challenges this come forward), what it did not do was slaughter the inhabitants of an entire city�s\village�s as did the crusaders, Islam�s history lies in war and success. The entire text of the Geneva convention on treatment of prisoners and civilians is based on the letter produced the Khalifa Uthman (r.a), so we are not barbarians as made out to be.

What you read and see on the news is 100% propaganda, the motives of which are known by those that conjure them and by Allah the all knower. Whatever these people hope to achieve through their plans, it can only be what Allah (swt) wills, as Allah (swt) is the greatest of all planners.

So my brothers / sister think before you interpret the information you read or listen to, history shows us at the time of war, propaganda is a tool used to sway the minds of the public. This so called war on terrorism is a low intensity conflict spread over a vast region. Don't look at what is happening, look at the cause of each conflict, why is Chechnya still at war (especially after declaring independence)?, why is Palestine at war?, why is their War in Iraq, Somalia and Sudan?, who funds these conflicts, and supports rival groups?, take a step back in time, and piece the jigsaw together the truth will be revealed.

JaJa,

I have a knee that is bad and when I am unable to kneel or sit on my knees for the salat, I use a chair. I even do this in the Mosque. I hang my prayer rug which is a Beautiful piece of workmanship and was a gift from Islamicity when I said Shahada with them on the wall when I cant use it as an inspiration: after praying regularly for several months I am able to use it most of the time as intended. Doing as much as you can with the physical movements with the salat is EXCELLENT exercise, I can stand on one leg and lift the other foot in the air without support now, from doing the preparation "wudu" before prayer. (from washing feet) Insha'allah, your health will improve as mine has from the benifits of praising the one God (swt)

May you have peace
