The question

Have any scholars commented on Sheikh Al-Albani's book "Abridged Description of the Prophet's Prayer from the Takbir to the Taslim as if You Are Seeing It," or differed with him with a stronger opinion? And do you have any comments on it, as I intend to use it as a reference for my prayer?
