The choice is clear, dear brothers and sisters that is if YOU HAVE DONE YOUR DUTY!

*** Surah At-Tahrim verse 6: "O you who believe! Ward off from yourselves and your families a Fire (Hell) whose fuel is men and stones, over which are (appointed) angels stern (and) severe. Who disobey not (from executing) the Commands they receive from ALLAH, but do that which they are commanded".
