It has been legislated in five locations: the Adhan, the Iqama, the Prayer, Eid al-Fitr, and Eid al-Adha. In these locations, it comes as individuals, doubles, fours, fives, and sevens. We have previously mentioned its meaning in the Adhan and Iqama. Its meaning in the Prayer as individuals is in the transition of the state of the prayer’s face: from "Facing" to the "Prohibition of Turning" to other than the direction of the Qibla through the first Takbir, then to the Bowing [Ruku'], then to the Prostration [Sujud], then to the Sitting [Qu'ud], then to the Standing [Qiyam] after the Testimony [Tashahhud].
