Wa Alaikoum Assalam sister Kristina
Thank you for the Audio.

One phrase attracted my attention it's when brother Sherman said that a lot of people when they face a bad situation in life they invoke God and they promise to worship Him but when they are safe they forget what they promised.
But lhamdoliallah that Allah guided brother Sherman and he was thankful.

I hope too that i will have time to listen to Napoleon's audio, he was last month in Australia and it will be good if he can give advises for young, in oder area why not in islamics countries too, so as they stop imitating rapper, incha'Allah

I agree with both of your comments. This audio gets better and better all the way to the end. The words come out like a spring of information for us to rekindle....MashaAllah. He is an example that has been blessing for anyone who has a chance to hear what he has to say, by the Grace of Allah. Alhamdulillah.
