Description
There is no doubt that almighty Allah sent the great scholar of Islam Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanawi as the Renovator and Spiritual Leader. He spent his entire life in the work of ameliorating the Muslim Ummah. There is no aspect of the religious or the worldly activities of humanity in which he did not guide the Muslims with his writings and speeches. In addition to his compositions on highly scientific and research works, he has left behind very simple books easy to understand and assimilate-all this for the benefit of the general public and those who are on a lower level of education.
The book under consideration is a recombination of four of his books which are brief but comprehensive, useful and easy to understand.
Rights of Islam
Rights of Parents.
Etiquettes of social living
Common Errors
This book shall, God willing, form a beacon of guidance for the Muslims. What is needed is that it should be made available to every Muslim household to derive from it maximum benefit.
