Let us strive hard to live and die with iman (faith). Remember to make
dua often for all the Muslims who are suffering all over the world.
Say ameen to the following: Ya Allah, forgive our sins, make us better
Muslims and destory or guide those who bring oppression to this world.
Remember, weshouldn't look only towards the sky to see the help of
Allah come down. It won't come down until we look into ourselves and
change ourselves to the way that Allah and His Messenger loves.
