0:23.6	My beloved brothers and sisters, we thank Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. We praise him. We send blessings and salutations upon
0:30.0	the most noble of all prophets of Allah. Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, the best of all creation.
0:35.3	Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. We ask Allah to bless him and his entire household and to bless all his
0:41.5	companions and to bless all those through the generations who struggled and strove to learn the
0:47.2	deen, to put it into practice, to convey to others in a way that it has got to us. So this evening
0:53.7	we are seated here. Thanks is to Allah. And we ask Allah to bless every single one of us and our
1:00.8	offspring. Those to come up to the end of time. May Allah keep us steadfast and may Allah keep

2:07.4	by Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala coming from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. It is known as Kalamullahu.
2:13.2	The words of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. So if we were to take revelation in terms of the Quran
2:20.4	some may say that that is the revelation of Allah the word of Allah. Why then should we adopt
2:27.2	something known as the Hadith or the Syirah or the Sunnah of Muhammad Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam?
2:31.8	What is the purpose of it? Why do we have to follow that? The truth is the same Quran if you were
