What is the wisdom behind the command to guard the prayers appearing in the context of the verses of divorce and marriage in Surat Al-Baqarah?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no mention of the wisdom behind the command for prayer appearing in the aforementioned context, except to emphasize its obligation in all circumstances, even when facing an enemy or during marriage. The verse commanding prayer was not in the midst of a discussion about divorce and marriage; rather, the discussion about marriage and divorce preceded it. What was mentioned after it concerned the waiting period for a widow and the compensation for a divorced woman.
