The Absolute Essentials of Islam

Detailed Description

Allah has commanded us to worship and obey Him with sincerity, reverence, love, and gratitude. He says in the Qur’an: “And they are ordered only to serve Allah, keeping religion pure for Him, to remain upright, and to establish worship and to pay the poor due. That is true religion.” (98:5) This worship is not possible without knowledge.

  Editorial Reviews

  A great service to English-speaking Muslims. . . . I recommend this book both as a starting point for beginners and as quick reference for the more advanced.

  I know of no other manual of Islam that presents the essentials of the Hanafi school and basic Islamic belief so reliably, concisely, and elegantly as The Absolute Essentials of Islam. Faraz Rabbani is to be commended for producing a work from which the new Muslim can learn, the practicing Muslim check his fiqh, or the student merely curious about the practice of Islam see how it all fits together. It is likely to serve the Umma, Allah willing, as long as there are English-speaking Muslims in it who want to know their din. This book works
