8. The sources of this beautiful Religion – the Messenger’s (salallaahu `alaihi wassallam) sermon at the farewell Hajj wherein he commanded his nation to hold firm to the Book and Sunnah. A nice narration from Ibn ‘Abbaas.

9. The hadeeth of ‘Irbaad wherein the Prophet’s words made the hearts tremble and the eyes weep; he commanded with the Taqwa of Allaah and holding fast to the Sunnah and avoiding innovations.
