Prayer (known as Salah or Namaz) is the second pillar of Islam and the most fundamental part of the faith. It is not just a mere act of worship or a ritual. It is a way to connect with our creator that helps us find peace and discipline in our daily lives. While the importance of Salah cannot be overstated, one must also understand what essentials are needed for this practice to enhance the overall experience.
Luckily for you, Riwaya sellers offer a diverse range of products to support and enrich your prayer experience. Let's explore in detail what prayer essentials you can buy from the Riwaya marketplace and how they can help you for Salah.
Exploring Riwaya Prayer Essential Collection
Riwaya’s platform is thoughtfully organised to help you find exactly what you need. Let’s explore some of the categories that offer prayer essentials:
1. Prayer Mat
A prayer mat provides a clean, dedicated space for prayer and can also serve as a beautiful representation of faith in the home. The prayer mat designs are inspired by Islamic motifs and architecture that add to the overall praying experience. Materials are usually made from soft and thick fabrics like cotton, wool, or silk to provide comfort.
One end of a prayer mat features a prayer niche or mihrab, an arch-shaped design. Mihrabs, derived from minarets in mosques, must face Kaaba (qibla) in Makkah when the mat is placed on the floor. To find the qibla direction wherever you are, you can download mobile apps or use an online qibla finder.

Riwaya sellers offer an extensive collection of prayer mats featuring traditional designs inspired by Islamic architecture and modern designs for trendy tastes. Each prayer mat is made with high-quality materials, ensuring durability and a beautiful aesthetic. Whether you prefer a simple, classic design or a richly decorated mat, you can find it in our collection.

2. Quran Cover Sets
Protecting the Quran is essential, as it is the most revered book in Islam many people recite the Quran as part of their prayers. Quran cover sets help keep the holy book safe from dust, spills, and damage while adding a decorative touch. These covers are made from materials like soft velvet, leather, and embroidered fabric, adding both beauty and protection.
At Riwaya our sellers offer beautiful Quran covers that are made from premium materials. Every cover is designed and crafted with the highest quality and attention to detail. Some sets also come with matching storage boxes, making them a great gift for special occasions like Ramadan, weddings, or Hajj.

3. Tasbeeh (Prayer Beads)
Prayer beads, also called tasbeeh, are used to remember Allah (SWT) through dhikr. As a part of the prayers, Muslims recite "SubhanAllah" (Glory be to Allah), "Alhamdulillah" (Praise be to Allah), and "Allahu Akbar" (Allah is the Greatest) each 33 times. The prayer beads not only help in this recitation but also make it easier to keep count of dhikr and enhance the overall praying experience.
Islamic prayer beads consist of a string of 33, 99, or 100 beads that are looped into a circle. This numbering simplifies the process of counting each dhikr after prayer.

However, it's important to note that using prayer beads is not an integral part of prayer. It is just a supplementary tool used by Muslims to help in counting dhikr and its usage varies among Muslim communities. Many people still prefer to use their fingers for dhikr which is completely fine. The main goal is to do dhikr and remember Allah (SWT) how we do it is not important.
Riwaya sellers offer tasbeehs made from wood, glass, and gemstones. Some come with silver or gold accents, making them beautiful and meaningful gifts. Whether you prefer a small tasbeeh for everyday use or a full 99-bead set for longer prayers, our sellers have many diverse options. Explore our tasbeeh collection now.
4. Fragrances
A pleasant and calming environment enhances the prayer experience, helping you focus and find peace. Fragrances and incense are used to purify prayer spaces and create a serene atmosphere. Even the Prophet (PBUH) encouraged his followers to wear fragrances when praying or attending gatherings (like congregation prayers). He said:
"Among the things of your world that I love are women and perfume, and the coolness of my eyes is in prayer."
(Sunan An-Nasa’i 3940)
Riwaya sellers offer a selection of high-quality attar perfumes for men and women, with scents like oud, musk, and rose, ideal for wearing in daily life. There is also a collection of bakhoor and incense sticks available to fill your home with a soothing aroma, making your prayer area feel even more spiritual. Explore our fragrances collection and buy one yourself right away.

5. Healthcare Products
Maintaining cleanliness is very important in prayer because it symbolises spiritual purity and reflects a sincere devotion to Allah (SWT). Muslims perform wudu (ablution) to keep themselves clean and free of any form of dirt that can make the prayer invalid. Riwaya offers a variety of halal healthcare and skincare products to help you cleanse your body before prayer.
We provide miswak powder—a natural teeth-cleaning powder made from the miswak stick, as recommended by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Additionally, our halal skincare range includes hair oils and beard oils that not only keep your hair clean but also promote healthy beard growth for those who wish to follow the Sunnah.
