Introduction
Before you dear brothers and sisters is a chart form in both English and Arabic detailing
Sh kh l I l M h d bi Abdil W hh b (rahimahullah) Shuroot us Salaah I Shaykh-ul-Islaam Muhammad bin Abdil-Wahhaabs (rahimahullah) Shuroot-us-Salaah. I
had originally made these charts available separately but then I decided to combine them
for anyone who wanted to teach referencing both charts. I ask that my Muslim brothers &
sisters make Duaa for me and ask Allah to forgive me, guide me, and to increase me in g g
knowledge and sustenance.
