This paper aims to analyze the concept of equality (al-musawah) in the Qur'an, specifically as contained in Surah Al-Baqarah verse 110. The verse emphasizes the urgency of prayer as an individual form of worship and zakat as a social form of worship—both of which complement each other in shaping the personality of a Muslim. This verse also reflects the principle of equality in the reward of good deeds, which is not influenced by one’s social status, gender, or background. Prayer is one of the obligatory commands in Islamic law that must be performed by every Muslim regardless of their condition. Prayer serves as a moral safeguard for every element of society to avoid disgraceful acts, including corruption. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method with a library research approach. Data collection was conducted by identifying and reconstructing references from various sources such as books, Qur'anic exegesis, journals, and previous studies. The findings of this article reveal the following: first, the concept of al-musawah is embedded in QS. Al-Baqarah verse 110; second, prayer is a divine command in the Qur’an that holds urgency for every Muslim; and third, the urgency of prayer can contribute to the reformulation of a civilized society that is resistant to corruption.
