Salaamu alaikum. Brother, I disagree with your sarcasm towards Seekersguidance and Sunnipath/Qibla. They are great resources on traditional Islam. Many of Mufti Abdur-Rahman's postings also are on Sunnipath/Qibla, so if you use him as a resource you should realize that he associates with and respects the scholars from Sunnipath/Qibla as well. Also, here Shaykh Faraz adds further details about this issue of hitting: http://spa.qibla.com/issue_view.asp?...=4758&CATE=121
