Introduction

The following is a short prayer book for Muslim Children and New Muslims to learn the supplications of the Prayer. It is intended for the Muslim who already knows Arabic who will direct

the child or new Muslim to the proper pronunciation and meanings of the prayer. I used the summarized Arabic version of ‘Sifat-us-Salaat-in-Nabee’ by ash-Shaykh Naasir-ud-Deen al-Albaanee

(rahimahullah) as a basis for the correct wording of the supplications as the Shaykh wrote it to benefit those who wanted to learn the manners of prayer in brief. This is only to teach the prayer in one

manner, the student must be made to understand that there are many other supplications that our beloved Prophet (peace & blessings be upon him) used to teach his companions. The teacher may

refer the student to the translated version of both the long and summarized version. To this date I do not think that the original four volume version of the Shaykh’s book has been translated into English.

I had originally made this booklet available in Power Point but I decided that others may want to print it out and use it as a teaching manual therefore I added a cover and had it converted into PDF

for a more professional look.

k h ll h f d b f k ’ f d k ll h f dI ask that all who gain find benefit to make Duaa’ for me and ask Allah to forgive me, and to increase me in knowledge, guidance, and sustenance, indeed He is the Noble, the Generous.
