Question: What does it mean that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob established prayers?

Answer: Our forefathers, known as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, established three prayers. Abraham instituted the morning prayer, which is mandatory. Isaac introduced the afternoon prayer, which is also mandatory. Jacob established the evening prayer, which is optional—you may pray it or not.

This is what we need to know; everything else will come with practice and work on these prayers.

Question: How should one properly pray in the morning and afternoon? Should prayers be read from a prayer book?

Answer: Yes, read them as written in the prayer book. Ideally, pray together with the whole ten.

Question: We say that we should aim for constant prayer. But if there are divisions into morning, afternoon, and evening prayers, what about the times in between?

Answer: During those times, pray on your own.
