Rizwana: Masha-allah it was absolutely amazing!!!
aslamalaikum..this was an amazing event that i actually enjoyed. it was just so calm and peaceful..just so relaxing. i loved it. i have been to other events but alhamdullilah this had been the most beautifully performed and done. just absolute amazing..can't even find a word that's how amazing it was. i really liked all those speeches said and all the naats..but i especially admired hafiz kamal-ud-din's naat..masha-allah he was totally amazing. and his voice is just sooo beautiful that you can never stop listening to it alhamdullilah. i just loved everything and insha-allah i am definately going to try and come next year insha-allah (as it was my first time with gateway though). keep it up..may allah (s.w.t) bring gateway all the success and shower his blessing towards everyone taking part with them. insha-allah. allah hafiz. and i would especially like to thank gateway for a superb event, it really has changed me in a really good way alhamdullilah. so thank you soo much. jazakallah. good luck always.

Team from Leeds Makkah Masjid: Masha'Allah - May Allah bless the organisers
Masha'Allah, the event was awsome. So much noor all around hearts of those who attended were filled with noor. The orgnisation was amazing and credit goes to all those brothers and sisters who work very hard to make it an amzing event.
Shaykh Pirzada sahib and his young scholars of Al-Karam are doing a great deal of work for the Muslim community in the UK. May Allah bless them all and, by the will of Allah, grant them the support of the community to do even more. (Ameen)

Sakinah: Life changing
I'd been unable to attend the last 3 years, so subhanAllah this year just blew my mind. The Shayukh were so beautiful and the organisers did SUCH an amazing job- this is not one of those events where you're let down my Asian timing. Immaculate, mashAllah, fuelled by true love, may Allah continue to give these events success, Ameem. What's more my sister attended with me who had many misconceptions about ahlu sunna wa jumah, and she left content and filled with love, Allahu Akbar. We're indebted to you all.

Tabassum Yunis & Fatima Al Zahra 15weeks old: words to describe a personal experianc...May we be intoxicated as the Awliya of Allah swt ...
"Allah possesses a drink which is reserved for his intimate friends (Awliya). When they drink they become intoxicated, when they become intoxicated they become joyful, when they become joyful they become sweet, when they become sweet they begin to melt, when they begin to melt they become free, when they become free they seek, when they seek they find, when they find they arrive, when they arrive they join, and when they join there is no difference between them and their Beloved." - Hazrat Ali

Hassan Ismail: Clarity.........
I really thought Abdul Hakim Murad's Speech and Shaikh Muhammad AL Yaqoubi's speeches were amazing. I especially felt benefit from them. It was a real shame about Shaikh Ninowy not having the time to give a complete speech, but it was Allah's will. I also got to meet Shaikh Noorudin Durkee afterwards, so AlhamduliLlah.
I especially loved the point about da'wah being connected to the spiritual state of the da'ee, and not simply being a matter of them providing information. Additionally I was surprised by the talks given in urdu. Many times I have found people from the subcontinent to be devoid of a special something, but masha-Allah, I really felt the sincerity from the 'Ulama. Sometimes our vision is clouded and we cannot see the gems that stand in front of us, and do not appreciate what we have. May Allah guide us to open our ears, and may He open our hearts to understand beneficial knowledge and to appreciate and honour our scholars.

Habibi: Who was that naat khan?
Salaam, great event Mashallah. Just quick question as there was a naat that was recited with some verses of the Quran beautifully after lunch. Just wondering who was the person who sang the naat? Their beautiful voice is still ringing in my ears and would like to hear more. They came from Norway i think.

Rizwaan: The Gateway is shining...
As-salaamu ^Alaykum. subhanAllaah, words escape me to describe yesterday's event. It is a breath of fresh air to have such a truly awe-inspiring conference; a change from the sort of 'people' who mainly host such conferences.
may Allaah ta^ala reward the noble Shuyukh, the organisers and all those involved & the attendees. Long live Shaykh Imdad Hussain & Long live the luminous legacy of Shaykh Peer Karam Shah (rahimahullah)!
