Religious Brotherhood and its Benefits Part 1

Khutub Al Minbariyyah V4
Translated By: Kashif Khan
All praise is due to Allaah, Lord of the worlds. He made the believers beloved
brothers in the religion. And I testify, truthfully and with certainty, that nothing

when there occurs differentiation and disputes between them, or enmity and
division occurs between them. He the Most High says, “And if two parties or
