Asking the age-old question: how exactly did our beloved Prophet (ﷺ) pray?

So I've been thinking a lot lately-everyone seems to have different ways of praying, and I often hear that Shias and Sunnis do it differently, both saying that's how the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed. But honestly, what was his actual method? I just want to follow the Sunnah properly, in sha Allah. If you’ve got any reliable references or hadiths to share, please let a sister know.

The differences are mostly in minor actions, not the core pillars. Focus on sincerity, sister. The Prophet (saw) said prayer is the first thing we'll be asked about.

May Allah make it easy for you. A good starting point is the description in 'The Prophet's Prayer Described' by al-Albani.

Check out the hadith collections of Bukhari and Muslim. The chapters on prayer are very clear. Also, videos of scholars demonstrating it step-by-step helped me a lot.

Great question. Many of us just follow what we were taught without asking. I found Sheikh Albani's books on the Prophet's prayer very detailed. May Allah guide us.

True. Sometimes the cultural practices get mixed in and we think it's the sunnah. Need to go back to the authentic sources.

Just stick to one madhab if it's confusing. They all trace back to the Sunnah.
