Excerpt from the Introduction of the Translator:The Prayer is the first matter about which the slaves of Allah will be asked on the Day of Resurrection. The Messenger of Allah said:"The first matter about which the slave will be called to account [on the Day of Resurrection] is the prayer." - an-Nasa'i [468], with a S ah i h Isna d according to Hafi Zubayr 'Ali Za`i [rahimahullah].Therefore it is a matter of utmost importance that a Muslim takes care to pray his obligatory prayers conscientiously and completely. And the completeness of the prayer is not only that he prays it in its prescribed time, but also that he adopts the procedure taught by the Prophet .It is precisely for this extremely important purpose that this translation of the book of the Hadith scholar Hafi Zubayr 'Ali Za`i [rahimahullah] into the English language, serves: - An Authenticated Summary of the Prophet's Prayer .Hafi Zubayr Ali Za'i has added two chapters in this book, in addition to the chapters of Wudu` and a step-by-step guide to prayer: some authentically narrated A kar after Prayer and a guide with regards to how the Janazah prayer is to be prayed.All the Du'a's [supplications] in this book have been rendered both in their Arabic form and in English. As an additional benefit, an appendix has been added in which the transliterations of some selected supplications have been compiled by the translator, as a benefit for those who are still learning Arabic or who cannot yet read Arabic correctly.May Allah have mercy on Hafi Zubayr 'Ali Za`i and may He accept this humble effort from the translator. Amin. 'Imran HussainRabi' al-Awwal 1443/ November 2021
