If you are interested, you can come.

You can laugh, that's my brother.

Baa!

Yes!

Are you interested?

Yes, of course. Its...

Where? What, what do you do?

Tomorrow we will cover a topic that

you'd like to know,

the notion of invisibility.

That's right.

A very important concept, I think for

all religions

but I'll talk about it particularly as it regards to Islam.

- You will be welcome.

- Well, thank you.

Will you bring her?

Will you bring her?

A love for Islam.

and at the same time he is a good

friend you can trust.

- Do you like him?

- Yes.

Yeah me too,

I'm happy.

- I'll call you tomorrow, to take you to my brother's.

- Okay.

See you later.

Wait there.

- Hello.

- Hello.

- Is this the place where Nassir's class meets?

- Yes back there.

- In there?

Well, what good is a notion if you forget

it one week to another?

Surah 6:
Cattle.
