How to pray the Asr

This is the prayer a few hours before sunset. Alike Zuhr, this also contains four rak’ah and the whole Salah must be performed silently.

How to pray the Maghrib

Salah Maghrib begins at sunset. This is the only Salah that has three rak’ah. You shall recite aloud in the first two rak’ah and silently in the last rak’ah.
