The guest lecturer, Sheik Adam Mudathir, Sirusalam, spoke on the importance of being of good behavior as true followers of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He urged all Muslims to emulate the values and good behaviors of the first Caliph, Abu Bakr Siddiq (R.A.), who despite what he went through, stood by the Prophet and Islam propagation.
The Chief Host, Ustaz Toliat Muh’d Murtadoh, thanked God for the success of the program and spoke about the importance of Ramadan in teaching us about humanity and doing good to other people. He also spoke about the issue of buying naira from POS vendors as a result of cash crunch in the country, noting that Islamic methodology frowns at POS agents charges and that any added Riba or interest is banned in Islamic finance.
