Today is Friday. The mollas will break the country with prayers, the heavens and the earth will be cut into pieces with tears. The tears of the servant will reach the throne of God like flood water. But Islam is not fundamentally devotional. The God of Islam is not a god who, if he is pleased with the devotional cries of the servant, will give what the servant wants, and if he is not pleased with the devotional cries of the servant, he will not give it or will cause disaster. If the God of Islam or Allah wants what he wants, he will not give it or will cause disaster. What the God of Islam or Allah wants is clearly written in the Quran, it has been explained again and again. Muslims have to be believers. For that, they have to establish prayer, which is not just praying. Salat Qayyim means that one must believe in one God and the Hereafter, be a completely honest earner, and live a simple life by sharing wealth with the poor and helpless. One must believe in the Hereafter. One must think about the Hereafter before doing every work. Without doing this basic work, it is not possible to please Allah in any way. So where did this custom of crying in prayer come from?
The picture is a carved relief panel of the Assyrian (ancient Syria) King Sargon II (713-706 BC) which was found on the wall of his palace called Dur Sharrukin. During the war, the mighty Assyrian King Sargon II would firmly raise his hands towards the sky in this way, praying to the gods Shamash, Sin, Ashur, and the goddess Ishtar for help and strength against the enemies of Assyria. If you don't believe me, you can see it with your own eyes, which is currently displayed in the Louvre Museum in Paris.
