=====================
The Muslim prayer ritual is performed five times a day, always facing in the direction of Mecca. Twelve-year-old Kaisan demonstrates his prayer positions and describes how praying gives him a feeling of connection to Allah, and to all the other Muslims around the world. We see Muslims taking part all over the world – ask pupils to look out for people from different continents as they watch.

This clip is from My Life, My Religion: Islam. A series in which young people explore what it means to be Muslim.

=====================
Teaching Religious Studies?

Teach pupils, through the clip, why Muslims follow the second of their Five Pillars of faith every day by praying, and why it inspires them to say things like: ‘When I pray, it reminds me to be thankful. ‘In the prayer, I ask Allah to guide me. I believe he listens to every prayer.’ ‘I actually like to pray even in the early morning, because it reminds me of the most important things in life, and not to be selfish every day.’

This topic is relevant to KS2 Religious Education in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and Religious Studies in Scotland.
