Here are some rhymes to sing when teaching children about prayer:
- To the tune of this is the way we brush our teeth:This is the way we (make salah) x3
This is the way we make salah
When it’s time to prayThis is the way we (do takbir) x3
This is the way we do takbir
Allahu AkbarThis is the way we (stand up tall) x3
This is the way we stand up tall
And say al-FatihaThis is the way we (do ruku) x3
This is the way we do ruku
And say subhanAllahThis is the way we (do sujood) x3
This is the way we do sujood
And say subhanAllahThis is the way we (sit up straight) x3
This is the way we sit up straight
La illaha illallah - To the tune of heads, shoulders, knees and toes:Head, hands, knees and toes, knees and toes
Head, hands, knees and toes, knees and toes
They touch the ground when we make sujood
Head, hands, knees and toes, knees and toes - To the tune of row row row your boat:Wash wash do wudu for my Salah
Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha
