  As-salamu alaykum!
My question is there any internet source that would explain the proper way to perform Salah? Or any other type, if there is no internet source?
I am in much confusion regarding these matters. I often can not quite picture what I read. For instance I read that the proper way of performing Qiyam is by putting one hand over the other and above the navel. The question that arise to me in this particular matter of Qiyam are:
1.is it immediately above the navel?
2.Which hand is under the other?
3.Should the bottom part (where the wrist starts) of the hand, that is up, be put where the finger tops of the other or at the other end of the fingers?
4. Is there any order of Surahs that must be followed (e.g. As I recall we were thaught that one Surah was recited on one raka'ah, on the next one we should not recite the following or the one after that, and that one should not recite Surahs that are prior in order)?

Also if someone can help with finding sources for cleanliness and conditions of Salah? A introductionary book of some sort would be great.

Thank you.
As-salamu alaykum!

I think I already learned the answers to questions 1 and 2. It is upon the chest with the right over the left. I still do not know the answer to questions 3 and 4 and I have an additional, which I think I already posted with a fatwa on another thread.
5.The issue that remains is left forearm or hand?
Thank you.
As-salamu alaykum!

And here are two beneficial articles on the true meaning of Laa illaaha il Allaah, and the grave danger of a wrong definition.

Subhanak Allaahuma wa bihamdika ash-hadu anlaa illaaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk  

If I said anything correct, then it is from Allaah (subhanahu wa taa'ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
