Come, and let us hearken to the Word of our Creator, as spoken through the tongue of His Last Messenger and Prophet, and let us obey His commands.

God, in this Sermon, sentence by sentence, line by line, has spoken with His creations, and has informed them of His Pleasedness and unpleasedness, His likes and dislikes, His commands and prohibitions.

The All-Wise Lord, in this Heavenly declaration, has offered His most priceless and precious Handcraft and Commodity -the everlasting Heaven and Blissfulness- to the inhabitants of the world, and has called them to the grand and vital Trade!

Commemoration of Ghadir is the celebration of the undistorted Word of Allah and Its Divine interpretation; Ghadir is the everlasting insurance of the eternal Qur'an, Qur'an with Mohammad and his progeny (PBUT) is protected from all kinds of distortions. Today which we have Qur'an and the Ahl-Ol-Bait's interpretation and explanation in our hands, we owe it to the Prophet's last Khotbah/sermon by the pond of Ghadir. We pray that we may all follow the Prophet's recommendations and keep the message of Ghadir in our hearts and transfer it to the next generations. Eid of Ghadir Mobarak.
