1)one day i was about to pray zuhr salaat alone at school and my non-muslim friend
was curious about how to pray so i taught him the actions. i was imam and he
just followed along with me... my question is, do i still get the reward of
praying in congregation in that salaat or do i only get reward for praying
alone...
likewise, if i had a five year old son who had imaan (faith) but didnt know how
to pray and just folowed wat i do, wud i get reward for praying in congregation?
