Assalaamu alaikum Musa,
Thank you for this wonderful fact,may Allah extend your knowledge and guide
you.

People like Taf need to be present to the public until everybody know`s that
we have effective successful businessman.

I know little bit about the developement Taf has builed in the Gambia.
Taf construction and Santa Yallah Construction were working so hard for the
developement of the Gambia.
I worked for Santa Yallah construction company Ltd
for three years and i was the purchasing officer,and i never had one butut
missing from their money or materials.
If Santa Yallah construction has the facility Taf have,
i think they will also do the same as Taf.

May Allah GIVE us twenty people like Taf or more.

May Allah guide Taf and all those who have the intention to build the Gambia
in both aspects.

May Allah GIVE the Gambians the faith to build the country and guide us to
the right part.

"O Lord we beg You as one whose want has become intense whose strength has
diminished and whose Sins are innumberable; We pray to You as one who finds
none to forgive his sins except You,
O possessor of Glory and Majesty.
With the name of Allah!,besides whose mercy,we hope for nothing;we fear
nothing save His justice,and trust nothing but His word,and do not cling but
to His string.

To You do we beg for shelter give the Gambia shelter

O Lord of forgivsness and approbation,from tyranny and oppression,from the
changes of time and succession of grief,and from a life ended without
preparation. And to You do we beg for guidance in which there be reformation
and improvement in the Gambia. And You alone do we pray for help in granting
the Gambia success and satisfaction.

O Allah! we request for the germent of safety and the granting of peace and
it`s permanence.
And we seek Your protection O Lord,from the suggestion of Satan,and with
Your power guard ourself from the tyranny of kings.
Therefore accept whatever be of our prayers and fast and let our tomorrow
and thereafter be better than our present hour and day;and make us respected
amongst our kindred and community;and guard us in our waking and our
sleep;for You are the best preserver,and You are the most Merciful.
Therefore,bless Muhammad,the best of Your Servants,the preacher of Your
truth;and honour us with Your diginty which cannot be deminished,and watch
us with Your Eye which does not sleep.
The Most High,the Merciful.

Let us all pray for the Gambia because is the best weapoon for us.

Let us all pray,let us all pray for the Gambia.

Thank you, one more time brother Musa.
It is true what you said:It is not all hopeless!

May your Today betterthan your Yesterday,and your Tomorrow betterthan your
Today.....Ameen!!!!!

Allahumma salli alaa saidina Muhammadin wa alaa alli
Muhammadin.
