Islam's regulated prayer book (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

missal

'prayer book' is the definition.
(missal is a kind of prayer book)

'islam's regulated' is the wordplay.
'regulated' indicates an anagram.
'islams' is an anagram of 'MISSAL'.

(Other definitions for missal that I've seen before include "Mass medium" , "Book of texts for the Catholic Mass" , "Book used in RC Mass" , "Religious book" , "A book containing prayers of the Mass" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
