All praise is due to Allah, alone. May His mercy and peace be upon our beloved master Muhammad, his family, and companions.

Whoever does not thank people does not thank Allah.

Thanks is due to Dr. Nazih Hammad who provided me with the decree from the Muslim World League. Dr. Mohammad Hawari was very helpful in agreeing to review the article as well as the prayer schedule for Vancouver (which is in Region 2). Salah Kanoun provided insights and useful comments. Nazim Baksh, Reza Shahidi, and Aazar Zafar provided much-needed editing. Sherif Abdel-Kader hand-held me through the production of the DOS distribution file.

May the mercy and peace of Allah be upon His messenger. All praise is due to Allah.
