The Role of Prayer in Establishing the Foundations of the Islamic State

Abstract

#The aim of this research is to highlight the purposes of prayer related to political values and its contribution to guiding Muslims in dealing with them as a tool for political education. The research follows a descriptive and analytical methodology and is divided into an introduction and four foundations. The first foundation discusses collective consciousness, the second foundation addresses bridging the gap between the ruler and the ruled, the third foundation focuses on elevating the conditions and responsibilities of the ruler, and the fourth foundation emphasizes the wise integration of constants and variables. The research concludes with a summary that includes the most important findings, including the strong relationship between prayer and the Islamic state, as prayer serves as a miniaturized model of what the Islamic state should be.
