A speaking outline is the outline you will prepare for use when delivering the speech. The speaking outline is much more succinct than the preparation outline and includes brief phrases or words that remind the speakers of the points they need to make, plus supporting material and signposts.

A basic speech outline should include three main sections:

• The Introduction — This is where you tell them what you’re going to tell them.
• The Body — This is where you tell them.
• The Conclusion — This is where you tell them what you’ve told them.

Use your voice expressively and meaningfully.

1. Minimize the uhs, ums, likes and y’knows.
2. Enunciate words clearly. Don’t mumble or garble them.
3. Speak with appropriate loudness and speed. Consider audience, place and topic.
4. Use variations in speed, inflections, and force to enhance your meaning and hold audience attention.

The Quran

Among the books considered to be revealed, the four mentioned by name in the Quran shareef are the Tawrat (Torah or the Law) revealed to Musa (Moses), the Zabur (Psalms) revealed to Dawud (David), the Injil (the Gospel) revealed to Isa (Jesus).

The definition of a caliphate is the rule of, or land ruled by, an Islamic political leader. An example of a caliphate is an Islamic leader believed to be directly descended from Muhummad. A unified federal Islamic government for the Muslim world, ruled by an elected head of state or caliph.

The term khilafat has a specific translation in English as `caliphate’ but also a broader one as ‘succession `. Specifically khilafat refers to the leadership of the Islamic community after the death of the Prophet.
