Madinah of Sardarabad (which is located on Susan Road, Purani Tanki, Madina Town).

On my very first visit, the Muballigh (preacher) addressed the congregation on the blessings and benefits of wearing an ‘Imamah. I was so motivated by the speech that I bought an ‘Imamah right away and adorned my head with it. I also bought a copy of Faizan-e-Sunnat and soon afterwards, started giving Dars from it at our local Masjid. As time passed, I adopted the complete Madani attire as well. I used to take other students along with me to the weekly congregation. In the first week there were only three other students with me. The following week our group grew to twelve. I also travelled with the Madani Qafilah and also started doing various righteous Madani activities. In 1994, I was appointed as an administrator of Madrasa-tul-Madinah Faizan-e-Madinah in Sardarabad. اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, up until the time of writing this letter, I am a member of the administrative body of Madrasa-tul-Madinah for Punjab province. May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ grant me steadfastness in the righteous Madani environment of Dawat-e-Islami.

Let’s listen to Madani parable and refresh your faith:

How I gave up taking drugs

An Islamic brother who lives in Hyderabad (Bab-ul-Islam, Sindh) has stated: I was a drug addict and did not use to offer Salah. My family was very worried and concerned about me. Luckily, I was blessed with the privilege of attending the three day Sunnah-Inspiring global Ijtima’ of Dawat-e-Islami held in the plains of Sahra-e-Madinah, Madina-tul-Awliya, Multan in 1426 A.H. 2005. During the Ijtima’, I made the intention to perform I’tikaf in Faizan-e-Madinah. So I came to Bab-ul-Madinah and gained the privilege of doing I’tikaf for the last 10 days of Ramadan (1426 A.H. 2005). No doubt, the three day Ijtima’ of Multan had its affect on me but the blessings of collective I’tikaf cannot be expressed in words!

Truly speaking, it completely changed my heart. I repented sincerely of my sins, grew my beard and instantly started to wear a green turban. When I returned to Hyderabad after the I’tikaf my family and neighbours were surprised to see me with a beard and a green turban.
