Why Pray in Arabic

The reason for praying in Arabic is a question for many; even though it has been repeatedly stated that one of the points that should be paid attention to when praying is reciting the prayer in Arabic. The use of Arabic in prayer is of particular importance because Arabic is the language of the Holy Quran and the language of the Prophet of Islam, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). This choice of language means a direct connection with the holy text of the Quran and the interpretations of the Prophet of Islam and the infallible Imams (PBUH). Therefore, praying in Arabic represents a person's commitment and deep connection with religious and spiritual concepts. Also, reciting in Arabic in prayer also pays attention to the principles of Tajweed and the correct recitation of Quranic words, which requires careful attention to pronunciation and emphasis in reciting the verses of the Quran. This issue in praying in Arabic guarantees authenticity and purity in worship.
