Later on in the evening, Shaikh Ahmad bin Yahyaa an-Najmee had a talk, as mentioned after Maghrib Salah (Prayer) in Masjid Qubaa'. He summarized the `Aqeedah (Islamic Creed) of Ahl as-Sunnah (The People of the Sunnah) in under 20 points. The talk was delayed about 20 minutes due to some commotion caused by some lame people part of the Masjid's administration, complaining that the talk was not announced and that the correct licenses were not acquired for the talk to be held in such a public place. After the lamers got a call from their boss, the head of the Islamic Da'wah (Call) center, they gave up. The talk went on until `Ishaa' Salah (Prayer), after which, there was an Istiraahah Event (gatherings held at locations outside Metropolitan Madinah) planned for our two noble visitors. I'll mention that in a separate post, insha Allah.
