As a muslim the prayer is like a tool used to maintain the soul. Prayer is the tool that can get any human closer to Allah (God). Prayer is the tool that keeps us in love with Allah, and helps us with our Remembrance of Allah.
We note from hadiths narrations trasmitted about the importance of prayer, that:
hadith or narration:
the Prophet (SAAW) said:
He who attaches little value to namaaz (prayer) is not of me, nor is the one who consumes an intoxicant; he will not meet me at Hawdh-e-Kawthar, no by Allah, he will not! (Hadith 39 Raudato Hidayaat Vol. 2)
hadith or narration:
One companion of Imam Ali named, Misam came to the mosque and saw someone trebbling in his prayer (in fear and love of Allah) at the mosque. When he got closer, he saw that person was Imam Ali.
hadith or narration:

hadith or narration:
One day a arrow got stuck on Imam Ali's leg, and some of the companions tried to take out the arrow, but were not able to take out the arrow due to the pain Imam Ali was getting. The Prophet (SAAW) or some companions advised that wait till Imam Ali performs the prayer.
When Imam Ali started the prayer and then finished the prayer, the arrow was taken out of Imam Ali's leg during that time and he did not feel any pain at all.
