BANNA’S GOLDEN

RULES

Firqa(sects) are different from jumuah (movements)

Opinions, should be put in their place

The goals should always be to arrive at truth

The only infallible one is the Prophet MUHAMMAD

His Principles of Arguments

Quranic method for social reform

Understanding

Sincerity

Struggle

Sacrifice

Obedience

Perseverance

Never allow anger to make you forget merits, nor let pleasure blind you to defects

True belief, proper worship, and Jihad have light and warmth, Allah casts them in the hearts of chosen servants.

The road is long, the goal is far, and the obstacles are indeed numerous, but remember; patience is the remedy

The ummah that knows how to die a noble and honorable death is granted an exalted life in this world and eternal felicity in the next
