Shaykh Ibrahima FaalBaay Demba Sow translated this book written by Shaykh Ibrahima Faal to make it accessible to a wider audience and being faithful to his teachings, in the way we should interact with people in general, Muslims, believers and our loved ones in particular: "Open the gate of your house when they knock and welcome them in. If they get into discussion with you, then give them good advice, which will benefit every Muslim and believer.
