Takbeer-e-Ula
Forty days, every prayer caught with the imam
Forty days in a row on which every fard prayer is caught with the imam’s opening takbeer. A day counts only once all five are caught, and it is judged only after its Isha has passed.
What the challenge asks
Forty days in a row on which every fard prayer is caught with the imam’s opening takbeer. A day counts only once all five are caught, and it is judged only after its Isha has passed.
A prayer made up outside its time was never joined at the imam’s first takbeer, so a qaza never counts towards the forty.
