ReplyDeleteI think that you worked just as hard arranginging it on the blog as we worked translating it! (:
Just a brief correction concerning the book, it is a book that covers multiple topics, not just purification, prayer, and funeral preparation. The translation is just the first three topics in the book. It is a rather large text that covers fasting, debts, zakat, etc.
Jazakum Allah khayr!
mashallah
