In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. I intend to learn and teach, to
remember and remind, to benefit (myself) and benefit others, to derive usefulness and
extend it to others, to encourage adherence to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His
Messenger ﷺ, to call to guidance and direct towards good, seeking thereby the
Countenance, Pleasure, Proximity and Reward of Allah, the Absolutely Transcendent and
Most Exalted.

Ibn Mas‘ud (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺdrew a line in the sand
and said, “This is the Straight Path of Allah.” Then, he drew lines to the right of it and (lines) to left of it, and
said, “These are other paths which divert (from the Straight Path), upon each of them is a Shaytan calling to
it.” Then he recited:
(This is My path, (that is) straight, so follow it. And do not follow the
other paths, lest they divert you from His Path. ) (Qur’an 6:153)
