- Understand Salah: The Salah / Namaz that is offered five times a day has all the words in Arabic. There is not a single word that is in English, Urdu, Hindi, Malay or Bangali. If you don't know Arabic, you will not be able to understand what you are saying in front of the Lord of the Universe. The Taraweeh is also in Arabic language. The Khudba of Eid and Friday prayers are also in Arabic. Not understanding all this Isn't a great loss?
