Make Wudu & Salaah like the Prophet ﷺ by Muhammad S. Adly is a practical guide designed to help Muslims perform the acts of wudu (ablution) and salah (prayer) in accordance with the authentic practice of the Prophet ﷺ.
With its pictures and English phonetics, making salah is as easy as it gets. This prayer manual is a must-have for any Islamic book collection.
Why Pictures and Phonetics Together
Because they solve the two separate problems a beginner has, and most books solve only one.
The pictures answer what do I do with my body — where the hands go, what the posture looks like, in what order. Describing that in words takes a paragraph and still leaves doubt.
The phonetics answer what do I say, for someone who cannot read Arabic yet. Without them a new Muslim either says nothing or says the English, and neither is the prayer.
Who It Is For
New Muslims above all, and anyone teaching them. Also children, and adults who were taught to pray by imitation and have never checked the details.
At this price it is what masajid buy in quantity to hand out.
About the Author
Shaykh Muhammad S. Adly is Director of the Islamic Center of Columbia, South Carolina. His books come out of decades of teaching new Muslims in masajid, in the Department of Corrections and in free college programs — and that shows in how they are written: plainly, from the beginning, assuming nothing.
