This video clip takes you through the whole of Salah. What I like about this video is that the words in Arabic are displayed clearly on the side. Also, the actions and transitions from one position to another are also shown and the images aren’t static. Additionally, the actions are clear but may need some clarification, depending on school of thought (ie, the hands should be lower for boys and men according to Hanafi Fiqh).

Now I know, that’s a tough one for your own khushoo. But fathers can do this while taking the little ones and the boys along with themselves to the masjid (mothers can try to go for jummah prayer in the near masjid, if possible).

Tahajjud (Arabic: تَهَجُّد) are supererogatory prayers offered late at night. Prayers of this kind are observed from midnight to the prescribed time of the Fajr prayer. [53] The prayer includes any number of even rakat, performed in twos or fours, followed by three or more odd rakat of witr prayer. [54] Shia Muslims offer similar prayers, simply called nightly prayers (Arabic: صَلَوَات اللَّيل). These are considered highly meritorious, and can be offered in the same time as tahajjud. [55] [56] These prayers include eleven rakat: 8 nafl (4 prayers of 2 rakat each), 2 rakat shaf' prayer and 1 rakat witr. [56] Witr (Arabic: وِتر lit. 'string') are prayers offered either with the Isha prayer or with the tahajjud/salawat al-layl. Some consider this prayer compulsory ( wajib), while others consider it supererogatory. These are performed in odd numbers of rakats, with slight differences between madhhabs. The prayer usually includes the qunūt.

It gives us an opportunity to communicate with Allah, remember Him, show our gratitude to Him, with the act of prostration being the moment we are closest to Him. Salah is a gift for every believer and it is the first thing we are accounted for on the Day of Judgement. Each salah is made up of repeating units known as rakat ( Arabic: رَكَعَات, sing. rak'ah). Each prayer may consist of two to four rakat. Each rak'ah consists of specific movements and recitations. On the major elements there is consensus, but on minor details there may be different views. Between each position there is a very slight pause. The phrase Allahu akbar ( takbir), is recited when moving from one position to another, except from rukū' to qiyām. Then recite any other Surah. The minimum recitation is three verses, or one long verse which is equal in length to three short verses. However, it is better to recite a complete Surah. GhaneaBassiri, Kambiz (1997).

Fard prayers (as with all fard actions) are further classed as either fard al-ayn (obligation of the self) and fard al-kifayah (obligation of sufficiency). [ citation needed] Fard al-Ayn are actions considered obligatory on individuals, for which the individual will be held to account if the actions are neglected. [43] Fard al-Kifayah are actions considered obligatory on the Muslim community at large, so that if some people within the community carry it out no Muslim is considered blameworthy, but if no one carries it out, all incur a collective punishment.
