Using Chandrasekhar's MHD equations, we solve for the steady part of the internal rotation of AB Doradus. We estimate the size of the convective envelope to be ~40% of the radius and the rotation velocity at the base to be not less than 1.42x10-4 rad/sec. This study also yields the steady part of the toroidal magnetic field which is distributed throughout the convective envelope. We present rotational and toroidal magnetic field profiles in the interior and conjecture on the time-dependent part of the magnetic field.
