Abstract (EN)

The Prophet is the main subject of Islamic civilization and the only person whom all believers take as an example in their lives. In addition to its psychological and sociological dimensions, prayer was at the center of the life of the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) as it was the essence of servitude. This study discusses the prayers that Muhammad made from a historical perspective in the context of time, place, addressees and events. The Prophet Muhammad turned to his Lord at every stage of his life and renewed his devotion with his prayers. In the troubles he faced throughout his life, both as a prophet and with his human dimension, prayers such as invocation, refuge, and praying for forgiveness have been one of his indispensable directions. He started every new day with prayer and sprinkled prayer into his daily life in every situation such as eating/drinking, illness, expedition, natural events, war, marriage, and so on. The Prophet used prayer, which encompassed his individual life, as an active element in his social life and almost all of his relationships. When the whole study is evaluated, with the synergy that emerged from the unity of the Prophet's effort and prayer, he resisted all the difficulties he faced. Likewise, while conveying Allah's message to his interlocutors, he displayed an excellent servant-Lord relationship as well as a sincere and effective human relationship, and prayer was his strongest support in all these processes. Keywords: The Prophet, Prayer, Curse, Arab, Jahiliyyah, Praying for Forgiveness, Invocation, Refuge, Dhikr, Blessings, Space, Time.
