"I have spoken to you, you have heard my words. I have left written scripts to your attention; I have acted under your eyes; My life is my message.”--- Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba Mbacke.

[Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba @locheikh]

His wisdom was deeper than the ocean. His love was larger than the earth. His dignity was his weapon. He was a mercy to the human race. Again, he was an ocean of stillness; carrying all boats navigating through it tranquilly with total satisfaction.

[Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba @locheikh]

In life, everything has a price and we must earn it to live it anyway. In life, always think twice and let your actions do the talking anyway. Respect the rules of life and live your dreams anyway. Again, be yourself and let them be anyway!

[Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba @locheikh]

It is true that envy is not a Murid virtue.
It is true that jealousy is not a Murid virtue.
It is true that duplicity is not a Murid virtue.
It's true that villainy is not a Murid virtue.
It is true that lethargy is not a Murid virtue.

[Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba @locheikh]

Sheikh Ibrahima Mbacke is the sixth son of Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba Mbacke. He never relaxed in his short, valuable life. He knew life is a fair and long-lasting competition; we harvest the same seeds we sowed. He devoted his entire life to provide his people peace and serenity.

Serigne Ndame Atta is one of those rare individuals who live not just to repeat history; they put their own stories in the history book of humanity by having or showing high moral standards!

[Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba @locheikh]

Living life is like driving up Pike's Peak sometimes but keep your feet on the accelerator anyway.
Keep pushing!
Experiencing life is like facing our mask-faced foes in the middle of the night sometimes but keep fighting tooth and nail anyway.
Keep winning!
