Q 5: What are “Mustahbaat” in prayer?
Answer: Desirable acts which beautify and perfect the performance of Salaat are called “Mustahbaat singular Mustahab” like:
(1). To focus the look on the spot of prostration during Qiyaam, on the insteps of the feet during Rukoo, in the lap during Qa'adah and Jalsah, on the point of the nose during prostration and on the shoulders while saying Salaam.
(2). To restrain yawning by pressing the lower lip under the upper teeth and even then it is not controlled, put the back of the right hand over the mouth during Qiyaam and in other conditions use the left hand for the purpose. The best way to resist yawning is that the believer should recall in his heart that all the Prophets were “protected” from yawning, it will immediately vanish.
(3). Not to cough noisily.
(4). Man should take his hands out if wrapped up in sheet of cloth, for Takbeer-e-Tahreema.
(5). All Muqtadies (followers) and Imaam should stand for prayer on “Haieyaa 'Alal Falaah”. It is against Sunnah to stand for Iqaamah before it is uttered or is not uttered until Imaam reaches his “Musallaa”(the place where from the Imaam leads prayer).
(6). To keep the feet four toes apart during Qiyaam.
(7). Muqtadi should begin his prayer following the Imaam i.e. should not precede the Imaam.
