Dear MS Kiran,Walakumusalam,
Really it was so nice of you to have e.mailed the inspiring and scholarly legend;wherein the confusing questions of a young man were so beautifully and logically solved by means of practical example.I wish you put me on mailing list and oblige me by sending such religious material via e.mails whenever you got a chance.Thanks a lot.Allah Bless you and Allah hafiz.
Wassalam
