Matarr,

I do not normally like to deal with specifics because, most often than not,
they are misconstrued, mis-interpreted and hung around your neck as what you
have said. But for the sake of arguement, I would like to ask the following
questions:

a) Which is worse?

1. Back biting.

2. Drinking alcohol.

3. Eating pork.

4. shirte i.e asssociating God like we sometimes, in the Senegambia region
do/say, e.g. had it not been for God and Alieu/Ousman/Yama etc, or in Wollof
Yaala Aji Amie or Barke Serigne Fatty/Hydara/Touba/Nyiass, etc.

5. Hypocrisy.

6. Murder.

Please, if you wish to answer the above six questions, I would be most
grateful if you would answer them in order of gravity, ascending or
descending order is your prerogative.

b) What is your opinion?

1. Whether pre-destination is Islamic/myth or part of the Holly Quaran?

2. Which are the most powerful surras in the holly book?

3. How important are the surras; Al-Fatiha, An- Nas, Al-Falaq, Al-Ikhlas,
Al-lahab, Al- Kafirun, etc, etc.

4. Is there any combination of any of the above verses that one can make and
use to pray in one go (one prayer, particularly at night and more
specifically certain nights) and it will be like wiping away the sins of not
praying for many, many months?

5. If the answer to question 4 is yes, why? You are free to disclose the
how, but I am not asking.

Have  a good day, Gassa.
