Introduction

All praise is due to Allh Alone; and may the Galh and Salm be upon him whom there is no Prophet after. As
for what proceeds:

These are a variety of legislative questions and answers concerning creed, acts of worship, Srah, manners and
other than that, which I prepared for the youth to memorize, and the elders to use in the education of their sons,
daughters and students, both male and female.

What motivated me to write this, is that some guardians who are fathers, mothers, male and female teachers,
were sometimes puzzled about choosing the appropriate questions for lessons with their male and female
children.

Thus, these are the questions and answers for the youth, which the elders are also in need of. I ask Allh to
benefit its reader, memorizer, teacher and the one who learns it.
