I meant to say:
"Congregational prayer" is a reference to obligatory prayers (Arabic, salat). In the
Baha'i Faith, our three Daily Obligatory Prayers are not recited congregationally.
However, the Prayer for the Dead is a congregational obligatory prayer. Salat does not
include du`a or munajat ("regular" prayer).
