Suntou,
Thank you for the link. I will definitely listen to it.
Allah (SWT) says repeatedly in several verses in the Qur'an that He will forgive His creatures everything except shirk which is associating partners with him and marabuism and the wearing of talimans, going to soothsayers who tell you they can predict the future and paying them to put spells on others etc are all shirk of the worse kind and they all nullify one's Islam suhanAllah.
Yero,
Surah Ar-Rahman (Surah 55) is one of my favorite surahs. Thank you for the forward.
There are many people walking around today who fear their fellow man more than they fear Allah, so they concentrate only on this dun ya and never think of their meeting with their Lord and a meeting with Him there will be.But Allah says in His infinite mercy that he continues to provide for even those who do not believe in Him and He will settle with them on the day of reconing.
May Allah (SWT) in His infinite mercy continue to guide his creation on the siratul mustaheem. May He give us that which is good in this World and that which is good in the hereafter and save us from the torment of the fire (surah Al-Baqara. verse 201)
Rgds,
Jabou

Uncle Suntou,
You just reminded of this ktutbah (sermon) that your learned friend, Abdoulie
Fatty gave at the statehouse one time, in which he told Jammeh- a day will come
when his wealth, his ministers and soldiers will not be around him. Here is a
nice surah; forwarded from islamic city. As a matter of fact, nice commentaries
on this site. You can do a lot of research on this site. You can listen to the
whole Quran.
ening-mbara!
