TRANSLITERATION





                              A NOTE ON TRANSLITERATION AND STYLE


                              All praise is due to Allāh. We praise Him and seek His

                       assistance. We ask for His forgiveness and take refuge in Him from

                       the evil within ourselves and from the evil of our deeds. He whom
                       Allāh guides will never be diverted yet whomever He sends astray

                       will never find his way. I bear witness that there is no ilāh (god) but

                       Allāh, alone; He has no partner; and I bear witness that Muḥammad
                       () is His Servant and Messenger.


                              The system of transliteration adopted within this book for the

                       representation of Arabic alphabetical letters in ‘Latin’ form is as

                       follows:

                                ب      b                     ظ      ẓ
