The Inner Secrets of Worship By Imam ibn Qudamah al-Maqdisi (d. 689H)

In this third installment (The Inner Secrets of Worship), Imam Ibn Qudamah sets out the importance of worship and how worship has to be done with the knowledge of the Qur'an and Sunnah, as well as giving examples of our pious predecessors. It covers many aspects of worship, such as Knowledge, Purification, Prayer, Zakat, Fasting, Hajj, Reciting the Qur'an, supplications, and the excellence of the Night Prayer.

In Islam worship is the right of Allah, the Most High. Worship is only directed to Him alone, without association or reverence to anything or anybody else. It is the right of Allah alone that His servants fulfill the acts of worship that Islam has prescribed. Worship is everything that Allah loves, including actions, deeds, and speech. 

If you desire to build a close connection with your Lord, gain His pleasure, increase your love for Him, or to draw near to Him then this text is vital for you. This work will not only change your perspective on worship, but it will enrich your soul towards being an obedient servant of Allah and give you the spiritual uplift that your soul needs.

Often people complain about not finding inner peace, or the motivation to increase in doing good deeds, this work with the permission of Allah will fill that void.
