Authors Note:
Hope you found this little booklet Truthful and informative.
You will wonder why a basic Muslim takes this much of
trouble? The answer is very simple. We want to follow the
Basic Principles of Islam. This can never be done without
understanding the Character and Practices of the Final
Prophet. Read his Last Sermon to Understand better( we are
asked to inform others even if we know even one thing!).
If you think this information in the Booklet will be useful,
please download and Print at the corner store and
distribute to friends and Family, as it is done in a way to
print easily. You may also go to the website for other articles of
Social Value. GOD Bless
