The Book Of Worship: It’s Meaning, Conditions, Characteristics, and Perfection

Abu ‘Iyaad Amjad bin Muhammad Rafiq

The treatise in your hands is a short and concise, yet informative and comprehensive treatment of the affair of worship (‘ibadah). Unfortunately, the understanding of worship, through the ages, has become a compartmentalised one. Worship has been reduced to its component parts and each component has been turned into worship itself. It is of the utmost importance that every Muslim be acquainted with the meaning and reality of worship, along with its conditions, characteristics and perfection. Hence, a Muslim learns the manner of its performance as it has been prescribed by Allah and as it was performed by those whom Allah has made as an example to be followed: His Messenger, the Companions, and the Righteous Predecessors (al-Salaf al-Salih) who followed in their way. This book is for anyone who is interested in knowing about the reality of worship in Islam.
