Jurisprudential decree of time of prayer in Nahj al-Balaghah's letter 52

The issue of the time of prayer as a decree of government in Ali's letter to the command of the ruler opens up new perspectives. The jurisprudential aspect of the "five time prayers" has led to extensive discussions among the jurisprudence of the Imams and the public. Letter 52 of Nahj - al - Balaghah - although a short text has, helps us in various aspects. Attention to the government dimension of communal prayers includes goals such as: the task of ruling the organization of spiritual affairs, the strength of the Islamic system, the relationship of directors with the masses in religious relations and the rethinking of the concept of sedition in the Islamic system. Paying attention to the ethical dimension of the letter, such as the observance of the people, is instructive in the methodology of organizing religious ceremonies. The cultural, social features of the letter is the provision of customary standards, the central mosque in scientific, cultural and facilitation of public affairs and the creation of social solidarity in the shadow of the splendor of the congregation. Religious sovereignty, congregational prayer, and Friday should not be considered as individual worship and the relationship between people of society and God - too, as some people think. But the governors, ministers, and all officials of the Islamic system are obligated to do so. The negligence in it is a departure from the Alawite regime. However, the creation of legal mechanisms and pathologies of congregations should also be considered.
