Ignorance of some of the words of the prayer or the meanings of its actions does not invalidate the prayer. A non-Arab prays in Arabic even if he does not understand all its meanings. The nullifiers of prayer are specific and do not include ignorance of some meanings of the prayer's words or actions.
