  1. I wanted to refer CambridgeKhutbasEtc to a audio recording engineer, Muhammad Zaki, for advice on ways to improve recording quality. His email is tablemanners101@gmail.com. You can also contact me to get his telephone number.

  2. The reason mention this is: I usually burn Shaykh Abdal Hakim's lectures from this site on a CD and listen to them in my car over and over and over again. After a couple repeats of 'Fasting is Mine' the recording quality got to me and found it difficult to continue.

  3. I'm inspired by the moving words of the Shaykh. May Allah reward you for uploading these great khutba's.

    @ Najeeb, thanks a lot for the contact, any advice appreciated. I think in this case the reduced quality was due to the fact that - as a result of various circumstances at the event - we could not get the mic actually clipped to Sheikh AHM as normal and had to record from a slight distance. Apologies, and inshaAllah we will do our best to keep the standard higher.

  7. This recording was sufficient, however, for meeting direly critical mind-soul needs.

    Further to Sidi Tokeer's kind offer, the link should now take you to a much better quality version of this talk.
