Fiqh of Salaah
In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
The book that will be studied in this course is “Tayseer al-'Allaam Sharh
Umdatul-Ahkaam” by Shaykh Abdullah ibn Abdur – Rahmaan Aal Bassaam, who is
presently teaching in Al-Masjid Al-Haraam. He is one of the leading scholars in Saudi
Arabia today and has written this book as a means to deliver the Fiqh of Islaam to the
Muslims in a simple way by examining the hadeeths of the Prophet (saw) and then
checking what rulings are correctly derived from them.
Salaah (Prayer) performed genuinely with humility and submission to Allaah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) has unlimited virtues and benefits. It is the noblest expression of faith and the surest way of thanking Allaah (subhanahuwa ta'ala) for His unlimited favors. It is the way to obtaining Allaah's mercy, generosity, kindness, blessings and a sure way to paradise. Allaah (subhanahuwa ta'ala) says in the Noble Qur'aan: “Prosperous indeed are the believers who are humble in their prayers” [Soorah Al-Mu'minun 23:1-2]
Unfortunately, today many Muslims offer Salaah in a careless manner following their own whims and desires. This is why most of our Salaah offerings remain deprived of the gleams and blessings of Sunnah.
The Fiqh of Salaah course is divided into three parts and its purpose is to teach the Fiqh of Salaah in the light of the Qur’aan and the authentic Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). This is the first part of the Fiqh of Salaah course teaching some very important matters related to the prayers.
