All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. He created the universe and originated the orbits. He created the jinn and mankind for the purpose of worship. I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah alone, who has no partner, the One, the Eternal. And I bear witness that our Master Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, the guide to the straight path. May Allah send blessings and peace upon him, his family, and his companions, the possessors of noble character. Umt Card Manager Gsmforum Install
