Wow - 200 texts!!

Those may give good ideas for future articles, ie topics the youth are interested/curious about.

I texted a couple of questions, but as Noor said the transmission kept breaking up so dont know if they were answered. I heard the zakat answer though, and the Shaykh answered it really well - the example he gave was really good.

i know didn't they say it was going to be the final show on monday ?
i was looking forward to tonight's show
was even planning to ring in to Congratulate the brothers in putting on such good shows 🙂

the ones i'v listen to have been entertaining and very educational at the same time

Again well done to all who contributed to the show! 🙂

Sajid Iqbal — Mon, 23 Oct 2006 - 23:13

salaam

well we thought we were on air tonight...

but radio organisers had other things in mind...

today is last day of the radio licence so instead they have got most presenters together to pat each other on the back...

i dont take part in that kind of stuff....

i was really upset we didnt have a show.... because i was looking forward to some feedback and discuss some future plans...

ah well never mind....

i would like to thank everyone who tuned in and inshallah it has benefitted ppl.

the shows have been grand!

the topics regarding gangsterizim, drugs alcohol reverts and topics on them lines are the ones i feel needed to be dicuss more openly Amongst teh youth.
the shows excellantly discuss them and most importantly they were touch on with examples of hadiths and from various other Islamic sources which is good beacuse we always need to relate everything back to the deen.
it will be good if the revival could put on shows like the Lets Talk live shows once a month if not anything else. i for one will most Definitely benefit form then inshallah (if its no hassle that is)

May Allah swt reward u all for ur efforts and time u have put into theses excellant shows

sorry u didnt ask for any feedbacks, i'v put on a essay for u.
