All have one God, one Prophet, one Book and one prayer direction. Other mandates such as prayers, fasting, Hajj and so forth run the same in all sects. Since we have no knowledge of others we become the butt of wrong allegations about one another.”! [5] “One thousand three hundred and ninety odd years have elapsed since the initial call of Islam.
