"The Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) Prayer Summary"

Imaam Muhammad Naasir-ud-Deen Al-Albaanee (1333–1420 AH / 1914–1999 CE) was one of the greatest scholars and authorities of Hadith in the modern era and a revivalist of the sciences of Hadith criticism and verification in the 20th century. Born in Shkodra, Albania, he was raised in Damascus, Syria, where his family emigrated. There, he worked as a watchmaker to earn his living while dedicating himself fully to scholarly research and examining manuscripts in the Al-Dhahiriyyah Library for decades. His life was characterized by absolute devotion to the service of the Prophetic Sunnah, meticulously distinguishing authentic narrations from weak ones through a massive scholarly project that yielded dozens of volumes and enduring research works. Among his most prominent works are Silsilat al-Ahaadeeth as-Saheehah (Series of Authentic Hadiths), Silsilat al-Ahaadeeth ad-Da'eefah wa al-Mawdoo'ah (Series of Weak and Fabricated Hadiths), Irwaa' al-Ghaleel, and Siffat Salaat an-Nabee (The Prophet’s Prayer Described), in addition to evaluating, authenticating, and abridging the four Sunan books, as well as authoring evidence-based jurisprudence treatises. He served as a professor of Hadith sciences at the Islamic University of Madinah upon its founding and was awarded the King Faisal International Prize for Service to Islam in recognition of his extraordinary contributions, until he passed away in Amman, Jordan, at the age of 85 after a lifetime dedicated to research and authorship in the Noble Hadith.
