Pait ka Qufl e Madina | The Excellence of Hunger

The Excellence of Hunger

in him. On the other, there are the so-called devotees like us who pound upon the roasted meat, when placed before us, like a starving lion forgetting all love and grief and devour it so voraciously that we even miss the Jamā’at of alāĥ.

Alas! The above misdeed is often committed in dinner feasts. Even on the occasions of the Niyāz of Auliyā, which is a Nafl act, many people miss their Jamā’at just because of greed for food. It is my Madanī appeal that whenever you organize any gathering, please ensure that the time of any alāĥ does not fall during the ceremony. If the time of alāĥ happens to fall, the host and guests should all immediately proceed to the Masjid forgoing all activity. If you do not have a valid exemption justified by the Sharī’aĥ, it is Wājib (compulsory) to join the first Jamā’at in the Masjid. Even if you offer alāĥ with Jamā’at at home, you will still be considered a sinner for missing the Wājib Jamā’at. According to some Islamic jurists, the person who does not come to the Masjid before the Iqāmaĥ, is a sinner.

Those not offering Far alāĥ with the primary Jamā’at held in Masjid without a valid exemption, despite having capability, should fear.

Sayyidunā ‘Abdullāĥ Bin Mas’ūd رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has said, ‘The one liking to meet Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ as a Muslim tomorrow (the Judgement Day) should regularly offer these five alāĥ with Jamā’at at the place where
