#نشر_عقیده_امام_ابوحنیفه_رحمه_الله Salah of ahl-Sunnah wal-Jama’ah (ترجمۀ انگلیسی نماز اهل السنت والجماعت – مترجم: محمد ابراهیم تیموری) Allah the Almighty is the creator and the Lord of the Worlds and from among all of the acts of worship which He has ordained obligatory; Salah (prayer) is the most important. By bowing our heads in prostration five times a day, we humans acknowledge ourselves as the worshippers and we acknowledge Allah Most Exalted as the “Worshipped One”. In the Noble Quran, Salah has been mentioned explicitly 109 times. In view of this importance, Salah has been given a great status, and therefore, the Holy Prophet ه has said: إِنَّمَا مَوْضِعُ الصَّلَاةِ مِنَ الدِّينِ كَمَوْضِعِ الرَّأْسِ مِنَ الْجَسَدِ.. “The status of Salah in the religion is like the status of the head in the body.” (Al-Targheeb wal-Tarheeb li Al-Munazari; 1/246) The followers of the Hanafi school of thought from Ahl As-Sunnah wa‘l-Jamaah have been continuously fulfilling this obligation for centuries. However, certain people nowadays have been spreading “negative propaganda” about the Hanafi followers of the Ahl As-Sunnah wa‘l-Jamaah, specifically, that their Salah is not in accordance to the rules of Shariah. There was a great need for ending this negative propaganda. As such, many friends from within the country and abroad insisted that there is a need for such a book that should present the rules and actions of the Salah of the Hanafi followers of Ahl As-Sunnah wa‘l-Jamaah with proofs. We request our readers to keep in mind a few points while reading this book: In this book “Salah of Ahl As-Sunnah wa‘l-Jamaah”: 1. The rules and proofs of the Hanafi method of Salah have been presented in a manner suited for general understanding. 2. Instead of discussing the rulings, we have only mentioned the proofs. 3. We did not write this book bearing in mind any specific sect; rather we presented the method of the Salah of the Hanafis in the light of proofs from Shariah. 4. This book has been written for presenting only the Hanafi method of Salah. The method of Salah and the proofs of our other brothers – the Maliki, Shafi’ie, and Hanbali can be found in their respective books. They should continue to follow the research of their Imams.
