This book is intended to open a small window into the Islamic belief and practice in order to assist beginners desiring to learn the basics of Islam. It covers the pillars of faith and the pillars of Islamic practice including prayer, fasting, almsgiving, and hajj.
This book is short and to the point. It covers very concisely the basics of Islam for anyone who has never read or learned about Islam. I found it to be a good place to start to get a [very] brief overview. I will now go on to more complex books with this book having helped me to conceptualize the basics.
