CAN I GET a A-MEN?
The Basics of Learning How to Pray

By, Sabrina Enayatulla

I’m no scholar (though I sometimes do find it hard to contain my own genius) so you won’t find the really deep stuff here. This is where you’ll find the basics. I don’t know too much about Islamic jurisprudence, I read Arabic the way a 3 year old reads a Dr. Seuss book, and I haven’t memorized every chapter of the Qur’an — hopefully some day. This is a basic guide for anyone who wants to learn how to pray, to better understand what they already know how to do, or for anyone who ever saw a Muslim praying, and was all, “Dude, what is THAT?”

It took me 16 hours to put this whole thing together, but I promise you, it won’t take that long to read it — unless you read like a 3 year old.
