Tasbih (prayer beads) are used at various points during the du'a.
In Khoja tradition, Ubhi Tasbih is recited during tahajjud. The du'a is performed sitting, with a prostration at the end of each rakah. The Holy Du'a starts with Surah al-Fatiha and then various verses from Surat an-Nisa, al-Ma'ida, al-Fath and al-Anfal are recited and the last part of the rak'ah contains Surah al-Ikhlas. Jama'at Khanas are usually built with a qibla facing Mecca although Ismāʿīlīs believe that "to God belongs the East and the West" ( Quran 2:142). Nizārī prayer performed at Jama'at Khana Only Nizaris are permitted to enter the prayer house, the Jama'at Khana, during the recitation the Holy Du'a however, prayers can be performed at home or other places. Each Holy Du'a consists of 6 rakat, totaling 18 per day, as opposed to the 17 of Sunni and Twelver salat ( namaz). Holy Du'ā (archaically transliterated Doowa) is the mandatory Nizari Isma'ili prayer recited three times a day: Fajr prayer at dawn, Maghrib prayer at sundown and Isha prayer in the evening.
