Daily prayer in Mandaeism, called brakha ࡁࡓࡀࡊࡀ in Mandaic (cognate with Hebrew berakhah and Arabic barakah) or occasionally birukta (birukhta),[1] consists of set prayers that are recited three times per day.[2] Mandaeans stand facing north while reciting daily prayers.[3] Unlike in Islam and Coptic Orthodox Christianity, prostration is not practiced.
Mandaean priests recite rahma prayers[4][5] three times every day, while laypeople also recite the Rushuma (signing prayer) and Asut Malkia ("Healing of Kings") daily.[2]
In Mandaic, the generic term for an individual prayer is buta (plural form: bawata).[6]
