  You can get this book in the US by ordering from here.

Regarding the 6 points, if you search you would be able to find them on one of the salafee websites and most probably even on Salafitalk. Perhaps, one of the brothers/sisters can give the link.

  wa 'alaikumussalaam wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh,

Just as brother Sajid mentioned, it's here on Salafitalk. Here it is brother: http://www.salafitalk.net/st/viewmessages.cfm?Forum=6&Topic=171

As brother Moosaa جزاه الله خيرا pointed out in his post on that link, it seems it may be from the Dar-us-Salam version. Insha'Allaah, any brother that has a copy of the book can cross check this and let us know. May Allah reward him.
