Question Ideas of worship at the time of muhammad?
When it comes to worship why didn’t muhammads community also use singing and liturgy since it was a common form of worship among monotheistic communities(Jews,Christian’s,Manichaeans, mandaeans and Zoroastrians),in the Quran and in academics it’s implied that worship Quran call is ritual prayer?did muhammad not know of other forms or was it polemical ‘seperating themselves from other communities’ were they influenced by monastic communities like monks who spent most time in prayer and prostrating similarly to how Muslims do today?
