Full Description: The Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said:
“The first thing that the servant will be brought to account for on the Day of Resurrection from his actions will be the Prayer. Our Lord will say to His angels, and He knows best, ‘Look at My servant’s Prayer, did he complete it or was it deficient?’ If it is complete, then it will be recorded as complete. However, if there is any deficiency in it He will say, ‘Look and see whether my slave performed an supergatory Prayers.’ If he does have supergatory Prayers.’ Then the rest of his deeds will be judged in a similar fashion.” Sahih Sunan Abu Dawud (no.864)
In this book, al-‘Allamah Muhammad b, Salih al-‘Uthaymin explains a number of vital issues related to the Prayer in a very simple and comprehensive fashion. Not only does the Shaykh clarify the description of the Prayer, but he also expounds on finer details such as the meaning of the legislated supplications and remembrance articulated in the Prayer, which is highly beneficial to every Muslim, especially the English reader.
