Acknowledgments

All Praise are due to Allah. First and foremost I thank Allah, the

Generous, for having finally made this humble effort a reality. We

praise Him because if it were not for His Graciousness, it would

never materialize, as He Himself, reminds us in a Qudsi Hadeeth:

...Know if the Nation (all mankind) were to gather together

to benefit you with something, it would only

benefit you with something that Allah had already prescribed

for you... [at-Tirmidhi]

Also, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said:

Whoever does not show gratitude to mankind is not

grateful to Allah. [Abu Dawood, Ahmad & others]

I, therefore, express my deepest gratitude to all those who contributed

directly or indirectly to bringing this publication to this

final format, because I would never have been able, by myself, to

achieve this.

There are some people who deserve special mention because of

their tremendous sacrifice and help in seeing this job through and

they are: Brother Imran Ferouz Raghubar for completely reviewing

and verifying the authenticity of its content.

Brothers: Bilaal Nantambu, Azam Mohamed, Shaheed Ahamad,

Haseeb Yusuf and Nasir Jabar for proof reading it and making

many valuable suggestions.

Brother Fatal Bacchus for always being willing to assist.

And, most importantly, Brother Haseeb Khan and his staff for

their selflessness in affording me the total use of their computers,

and to Brother Haseeb Khan specifically for his invaluable suggestions

for layout and other technicalities relative to typesetting,

and for his design of the cover.

May Allah, the Most High bless all of us, and may He cause the

efforts of all involved to be purely for Him, and may He store its

reward for us with Himself. Ameen.
