[1] Of course, nobody can offer 5alát (prayer) and observe Saum (fast) incessantly, and since the Muslim fighter is rewarded as if he was doing such good impossible deeds, no possible deed equals Jihád in reward.

[1] The performance of Salát (prayers). This is not understood by many Muslims. It means: (A) Each and every Muslim, male or female, is obliged to offer his Salát (prayers) regularly five times a day at the specified times; the male in the mosque in congregation and the female at home. As the Prophet (ﷺ) has said: "Order your children for Salát (prayers) at the age of seven and beat them (about it) at the age of ten". The chief (of a family, town, tribe, etc.) and the Muslim ruler of a country are held responsible before Allah in case of nonfulfilment of this obligation by the Muslims under his authority.

(B) To offer the Salát (prayers) in a way just as Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). offered it with all its rules and regulations, i.e. standing, bowing, prostrating, sitting etc. as he (ﷺ) has said: "Offer your Salát (prayers) the way you see me offering them." Please see Ahadith Nos. 702, 703, 704, 723, 786, 787,Vol. 1,SahIh Al-Bukhári for the Prophet's way of offering Salát (prayer), in the Book of Characteristics of the Salát (prayer) and that the Salát (prayer) begins with TakbIr (Alldhu-Akbar) with the recitation of Surat Al-Fâtiha etc. along with its various postures, standing, bowing, prostrations, sitting etc. and it ends with TaslIm.
