5. Rising from rukoo

6. Prostrating on the 7 bones

9. Being tranquil and calm in every pillar position

-The lowercase 'q' in tranquil looks like a 9

10. Every pillar position has to be done in order

-The 0 in 10 and the 'O' in order look similar

11. Saying the last tashahud

- The 1's in 11 look similar to 'l' in last

12. Sitting during the last tashahud

- The number 1 looks similar to the 'l' in last and the bottom half of number 2 resembles a person's legs when sitting in the jalsa position

13. Sending the salah and salaams upon the nabi (Allahumma saali a'la Muhammad...)

-Muhammad is mentioned first in the dua and he gave dawwah in Mecca for thirteen years

14. The two tasleems, saying assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullah to the right and left

-The last/closing pillar/action of prayer

Idk if these seem too complicated, but it's what helped me when I first memorized it. You can use whatever you come up with if these prove to be no help, everyone interprets certain things differently
