WÂJIBS of NAMÂZ (I)

Wâjibs of namâz in the Hanafî Madhhab are as follows: Not to recite anything after (reciting) the “Subhânaka...” (when you are performing namâz in jamâ’at) behind the imâm. For the imâm (when conducting namâz in jamâ’at) and for a Muslim who is performing namâz on his own, to say the Sûra called Fâtiha sherîfa once at each of (any) two rak’ats of a namâz that is farz and at every rak’at of any other kind of namâz. To say (an additional Sûra called) the Dhamm-i-Sûra once at each of the first two rak’ats of a namâz that is farz and which contains four or three rak’ats and at each and every rak’at of any other kind of namâz. To apportion the Fâtiha-i-sherîfa to the first two rak’ats in a namâz of three or four rak’ats. To pass from one farz to another farz. To recite the Fâtiha before (reciting) the dhamm-i-sûra. To sit for the Qa’da-i-ûlâ (first sitting posture). To make the (two) sajdas one after the other. To say the (prayer termed) Tehiyyât during the Qa’da-i-âkhira (last sitting posture). To exit the namâz saying the Salâm, (i.e. to say, “Es-salâm-u-’alaikum wa rahmatullah.”) To say the prayers called Qunût during the Salât-i-witr. During the performance of the namâz of ’Iyd, to say the additional takbîrs. To say the prayers (to be said during namâz) with ikhfâ’, (i.e. in a whisper,) whereat they are to be said with ikhfâ’, and with jehr, (i.e. audibly,) whereat they are to be said with jehr.
