(I have only created Jinn and men, but to worship me)

And the most common and lofty way of worship Allah, as we all know, is to pray. Pray, pray, pray.

But how will we react if we find out that after years and years of praying, our prayer is performed incorrectly?!?!

Some of us would be angry… actually, very very angry… while some will be dissappointed and wishing that they knew the correct way of praying earlier…

This book covers all of the guidelines of prayer, and what you need to do before, after, and during prayer, to keep you from that humiliating moment of “learning it the hard way.”

So once this book is between your hands, flip through its thin pages and earn the knowledge of your deen as you sit on the cushions of a warm, comfortable couch.
