Salah (Islamic prayer) is not merely a ritual act of worship but a comprehensive system for moral and spiritual development in Islam. Rooted in discipline, consciousness of God (taqwa), humility, and regularity, Salah shapes the inner and outer character of a believer. This research explores how the five daily prayers serve as a powerful tool for character building by instilling values such as honesty, punctuality, patience, gratitude, and humility. Drawing upon Qur’anic verses, prophetic traditions, and classical Islamic scholarship, the study illustrates how Salah reforms individual behavior, strengthens communal ties, and promotes ethical conduct. The paper argues that regular and mindful engagement in Salah leads to a disciplined, spiritually elevated, and morally sound personality, making it a cornerstone for both personal and societal well-being.
