My First Salah Book

My First Salah Book starts with why we pray before it teaches how. Learning Roots spent a year making it, with the aim that a child understands the purpose of the prayer and then learns to perform it.

The book has three parts. Why We Pray comes first. Easy Steps then shows what to say and what to do at every step of the prayer, with a picture for each position. All About the Prayer covers wudu, the five daily prayers, the adhan, the prayer times and praying together. It is a hardback, and it works with the Kiitab talking pen, which is sold separately.
