How Muslims Worship

A simple Maliki guide to worship

Our flyer gets you started with wudu and salah. This book takes you further: purification, prayer, fasting and zakat, explained step by step in the Maliki school. Leave your email and we'll tell you the day it's out.

What's inside

Everyday worship, in the order you need it. Open it at the page you need today. You don't have to finish it before you pray.

  • Starting

    The five prayers, what to check before you stand, finding the qiblah, and covering in prayer.

  • Purification

    After the toilet, wudu and what breaks it, wiping over socks, makeup and nail polish, ghusl, and what to do when there is no water.

  • Salah

    The prayer itself, what you recite, which surah to add after al-Fatihah, praying behind an imam, Friday prayer, and what to say after the prayer.

  • When things go wrong

    A missed prayer, losing wudu mid-prayer, forgetting which rakah you are on, illness, menstruation, and what invalidates the prayer.

  • Daily life

    Praying while travelling, at work and at school, istikhara, Eid, and voluntary prayer.

  • Fasting and zakat

    Ramadan, zakat on wealth, and zakat al-fitr.

  • Beginning again

    Help for new Muslims, why other people pray differently, the mosque, and cleanliness and doubt.

Who it's for

It's for anyone who wants to pray with confidence in the Maliki school: new Muslims taking their first steps, parents teaching their children, and anyone who learned the basics years ago and wants to get them right.

Each ruling is written in plain English and taken from the Maliki books.

You do not need to know everything before you start.
