DARUL HUDA'S NOTE

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious,
the Most Merciful
Praise be to Allah. We praise Him and seek His
help and forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah
from the evil of our own selves and from our
evil deeds. Whomsoever Allah guides cannot be
led astray, and whomsoever Allah leaves astray
cannot be guided. I bear witness that none has
the right to be worshipped but Allah alone, with
no partner or associate, and I bear witness that
Muhammad gg is His slave and Messenger.
Islam is an universal religion. It’s teachings
are not limited to any boundaries, countries,
languages, races etc. It is the only way for the
people of the world to attain Allah’s pleasure. It
is only the right way to attain Paradise. No other
belief will benefit humanity in any way and no
salvation to humanity except Islam.
Darul Huda is an organisation working to
convey the message of Islam to the world.
Alhamdulillah!
v
Our wish and aim is to publish Islamic
books in high quality with an affordable price.
By this way, we are keen to take part in
propogating Islam and seek reward for the
hereafter.
May Allah have mercy on the Author of
this Book and the translator.

You are the Hearing, the Knowing. ”

All Praise is due to Allah. We praise Him, and
seek His help and forgiveness. We seek refuge
with Allah, Most High, from the evils of our
own selves and from our wicked deeds.
Whomever Allah guides cannot be misguided,
and whomever He leads astray cannot be guided.
I testify that there is no true God worthy of
being worshipped except Allah, alone, without
partner or associate. I further testify that
Muhammad is His slave and Messenger {$£)}
Vll
May Allah’s salah and salam also be granted to
the Prophet’s pure family and to all of his noble
companions.
O you who believe! Fear Allah [by doing
all that He ordered and abstaining from all
that He forbade] as He should be feared
[obey Him, be thankful to Him, and
remember Him always] and die not except
in a state of Islam.
(Qur’an 3:102)

0 mankind! Be dutiful to your Rabb2
[Allah], created you from a single

person [Adam] and from him [Adam] He
created his wife [Eve], and from them both
He created many men and women. And
fear Allah through Whom you demand
your mutual [rights] and [do not cut the
relations of] the wombs [kinship]. Surely,
Allah is ever an All-Watcher over you.

O You who believe! Keep your duty to
Allah and fear Him, and speak [always]
the truth. He will direct you to do righteous
good deeds and will forgive you your sins.
And whosoever obeys Allah and His
Messenger has indeed achieved a great
success.

To proceed:
The most truthful speech is that of Allah’s
Book [the Qur’an] and that the best of guidance
is that of Muhammad (3§). The worst of evils
are the muhdathaat (newly-invented matters [in
the deen]3), and every innovated matter (in the
deen) is a bid1 ah; every bid1 ah is a dalalah
(misguidance), and every dalalah is in the Fire
of Hell.
