I bear witness that Muhammad ibn Abdullaah is His 'abd and final messenger. We chase the people away by our actions, not the actions of making the salawat, or giving zakat/ sadaqa, but by our actions that go against the Qur'aan and the sunnah. We make things hard when they do not have to be. We even chase our own away, by demanding things that may be our right, but optional. Oh people, fear Allaah and make that which is lawful, easy. Oh Allaah, other than whom there is NO might, no power, make our worship sincere for You. Ameen. I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allaah, Alone, who has no partner.
