For the first time in history, the town (Apelle) witnessed a miracle. Most of the Muslim that heard the Young Scholar’s admonition were touched by it and they began to change from their bad ways.



After the Jumat Service


Imam Malik: Assalamualaikum Jammah. Alhamdulilah!! Alhamdulilah Rabbil Aleamin. We Thank Almighty Allah for today’s Jumat [The crowd answered: Alhamdulilah] I really want to appreciate our young Scholar here name: Mallam Abdulrasaq for his admonition today. Clearly this is the first time our mosque (masjid) got filled to it’s brim. And that’s because Allah used this young man here to help us and I want everyone to respect him like he deserves. 


[The crowd: Masha Allah]

A man from the crowd stood up and said: I felt so touched with the sermon and I would love if my children can have someone who could teach them the quran and sunnah of the prophet Muhammad (SAW). [He turned his face to Abdulrasaq] If every kid could grow up like you then the world would be a better place.


Mallam Sani: Assalamualaikum.. [replying the man in the crowd] They’re many madrasat that children can attend. The parents needs to follow up on their children to ensure they learn well.


Imam Malik: May Almighty Allah assist us and guide all the Muslims to remain steadfast. May we continue to see such crowd coming to observe salat daily.

He made a closing dua 


[The crowd: Amin]


Everyone left the mosque and returned home for the day. Not a single person left without getting to see the face of the Young Scholar. Ohh he’s so cute, smart and intelligent. Abdulrasaq felt shy being a celebrity in a small town. While Abdulrasaq walked down home, an old woman passed him by with a very heavy load on her head. She turned to faced him and her looks shows she was in need of help. Abdulrasaq was just about helping her out before he got distracted by Khadijah’s friends.

Khadijah: with a beautiful smile left home with. And this she forgot to take permission from her mom. 


Mummy Khadijah was already figuring out that her daughter was falling in love because of her recent behavior and how she most likely talks about Abdulrasaq with Farooq most times. Trust our mothers they know exactly what is going on in our heart but how to stop it is what they find difficult to help us with. 


Abdulrasaq and Khadijah arrived at a lonely path… And then she said to him;


Khadijah: there’s something I’ll like to tell you…
