Dear Quran Lovers,
Let us continue to recite surah 2 Al-Baqoroh (synopsis of Islam). Please refer to the text:
أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم
(80) وَقَالُواْ لَن تَمَسَّنَا اُلنَّارُ إِلَّاآأَيَّامًا مَّعْدُودَةً ج قُلْ أَتَّخَذْتُمْ عِندَ اُللهِ عَهْدًا فَلَن يَخْلِفَ اُللهُ عَهْدَهُو~ صلى أَمْ تَقُولُونَ عَلَى اُللهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ
وَقَالُواْ لَن تَمَسَّنَا اُلنَّارُإِلَّآ أَيَّامًا مَّعْدُودَةً = "Wa Qo~lu~ Lant~Ta-mas-sa Nan~Na~ru Il=la~~ Ay-ya~mam~Maa-du~dah",  "Wa Qo~lu~" = And they say, "Lan" = will not , "Ta-mas-sa" = to be touched, "Na~" = we, "an~Na~ru" = the Fire, "Il-la~" = except, but, "Ai-ya~man" = days, "Maa-du~da-tan" = a number, a few.
"Wa Qo~lu~ Lant~Ta-mas-sa Nan~Na~ru Il-la~~ Ai-ya~mam~Maa-du~dah". = And they/the Children of Israel say, "The Fire (of Hell) will not touch us but for only a number of/few days".
ج = a Waqof Jaiz sign.
قُلْ أَتَّخَذْتُمْ عِِندَ اُللهِ عَهْدًافَلَن يُخْلِفَ اُللهُ عَهْدَهُ = "Qul At-Ta-khodz Tum 'Ind~dal=Lohi 'Ah-danf~Fa Lay~Yukh-li-fal-Lohu 'Ah-dah".  "Qul" = Say, "At-Ta-khodz" = have you taken/made, "Tum" = all of you, " 'Ind~da" = from, "Al-Lohi" = Allah, " 'Ah-dan" = fulfillment of a promise, "Fa" = then, "Lan" = will not, "Yukh-li-fa" = He violets, breaks, "Al-Lohu" = Allah, " 'Ah-da" = promise, "Hu~" = His.

(The Children of Israel thought that they would not be punished in the Fiery Hell long, but only for a few says. And Allah denies what they have claimed because Allah did not promise them that and what they said was only a fabrication/lie they made about Allah.).
(81) (to be continued). 
                                 oooo000oooo
Let us now continue to look into the Basic Islamic Rules:
  (2) Solat: The Ritual Of Solat, Both the Fardhu and The Sunnah:
  Things that a Muadzdzin should observe:
     It is Sunnah that a Muadzdzin observes these  (briefly): 
  (i) Has the hope for Allah's pleasure when Adzan.
  (ii) Should be clean in body and clothing.
  (iii) Stands and faces towards the Qiblat
  (iv) When exclaiming "Haiya 'Alash-Sholah 2 x", should turn his face to his  right, and when exclaiming, "Haiya 'Alal-Falah 2 x", should turn his face to his left. These are done so that people on his right side and his left side can hear his call. This is done when he is on the minaret. If he made the Adzan to a mike, he need not turn his face.
  (v) To insert his index fingers in his ears, like Bilal did when he Adzan.
  (vi) To Adzan loudly and forcefully.
  (vii) To exclaim the verses of Adzan calmly, slowly and lengthy.
        (But in Qomat, they should be uttered quickly).
  (viii) Do not chit-chat while Adzan, thought it is permissible.
      After the Adzan, the Qomat and the Doa are made, stand facing the Qiblat to perform the Solat: (to be continued).
Until we meet in the next session, see you all Quran Lovers later.
