Al-Khushoo' - Humility and Devotion in Prayer


Price: RM22.00

As-Salaah is the greatest practical pillar of Islam and al-khushoo' in as-salaah is required by Islam. Al-Khushoo' means calmness, concentration, humility and being present-minded while performing prayers. Fear of Allah is the most important cause of khushoo' as one always thinks that Allah is always watching him. Making the heart submissive and humble before Allah is one of the most important causes of khushoo', because if the heart is corrupted by the insinuating whispers of Satan, the acts of the body faculties will also be corrupt. Part of khushoo' is being submissive and humbling oneself out of the fear of Allah.

The khushoo' of true faith can be attained when the heart feels aware and humble before the greatness and glory of Allah when one stands for as-salaah full of fear, awe, hope and the recognition of the blessings of Allah and the reward one seeks by performing as-salaah.

In this valuable book, which is highly recommended for every Muslim as it deals with the greatest practical pillar of Islam, the author has efficiently featured out the causes of khushoo'
and those of distraction to enable the reader to know the satanic plots and be able to perform this pillar of Islam in the best manner. Since as-salaah is the most important practical pullar of Islam and the first obligatory worship act for which reckoning in the Hereafter will take place, such a book becomes indespensable.
