is it better to pray at specific prayer times or whenever it is best for you?
why do we turn our heas right then left at the end of our prayers every day,i heard it was something about angels that guard over us or something?
does anyone know where i can order a free pocket sized Quran?

It is best to pray at the specified times, this way we are forced to stop our day abondon the things of this world in order to remember Allah. The specified times are dawn, around noon, late afternoon, evening, and night time, for the specific times it depends on your area because it is based on the sun.

The reason we turn our head right then left is to say peace: "Assalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullah" to the angels on each side. The angel over our right shoulder is writing down all of our good deads, and the angel on our left side is writing all our bad deeds.
