The Holy Qur`an

If We had sent down this Qur’an on a mountain, thou wouldst certainly have seen it humbled and rent asunder for fear of Allah. And these are

similitudes that We set forth for mankind that they may reflect.

He is Allah, and there is no God beside Him, the Knower of the unseen and the seen. He is the Gracious, the Merciful.

He is Allah, and there is no God beside Him, the Sovereign, the Holy One, the Source of Peace, the Bestower of Security, the Protector, the Mighty, the Subduer, the Exalted. Holy is Allah far above that which they associ-

ate with Him.

He is Allah, the Creator, the Maker, the Fashioner. His are the most beau-tiful names. All that is in the heavens and the earth glorifies Him, and

He is the Mighty, the Wise.

(Holy Qur’ān: Chapter 59: Al-Hashr; Verse: 22-25)

Hadīth Nabwi sa

Hadrat Abu Hurairahra narrates that:

The Holy Prophetsa said, "Allah has ninety-nine Names, one-hundred less one; and he who memorized them all by

heart will enter Paradise." [Sahi Bukhari]

Hadrat Jabirra narrates that:

The Holy Prophetsa said, “The most excellent way of remembering Allah is to proclaim: There is none worthy of worship except Allah. And the best supplication is to

profess: All praise belongs to Allah.” [Tirmidhi]

This package outlines in a detailed form the structure and pattern on which an Ijlas-e-`Aam in the Majlis should be organized. This package will be sent to the Nazimeen with the goal that all Majalis across Canada shall hold at least 12 Ijlas-e-`Aam of at least the standard basis on which an Ijlas-e-`Aam is suppose to be held.
