who will follow the path of righteousness until the last day.

By the Grace of Allah, The Mercy of Sayyiduna Rasoolullah ‫ﷺ‬ and

the blessings of the Awliyah and Masha’ikh, especially my Beloved
Shaykh e Kaamil Huzoor Sayyidi Taajush Shariah ؓ and my mentor

Huzoor Asjad Raza Khan, and the blessings of my beloved parents,
you have before you the booklet ‘A Simple Guide To Salaah

Salaah Series and has been extracted from authentic books including
a book done by Mufti Abdul Wajid Alaihir Rahma on Niyyats.

My thanks to Brother Rukhsar Hussain Qaadiri Amjadi (Birmingham,

my sincere Dua that Almighty Allah, through the Wasila of Nabi
Kareem ‫ ﷺ‬blesses us all with firmness in Imaan and sincerity in
A’maal. Aameen.
