Take part in the 12 Madani activities

Dear Islamic brothers! Shaykh-e-Tareeqat, Ameer-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـه has given us a Madani objective, ‘I must strive to reform myself and people of the whole world.’ Therefore, associate yourself with the Madani environment of Dawat-e-Islami and take part with enthusiasm in the 12 Zayli Madani works. One of the Zayli Madani works is to attend the weekly Ijtima.’ اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ Blessings of attending the Ijtima’ are in abundance; one earns rewards by attending the gathering of ‘Ilm-e-Deen.

A blessed Hadees regarding the excellence of ‘Ilm-e-Deen says: The one who walks in order to seek ‘Ilm-e-Deen, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ takes him towards Jannah and the angels lay down their wings for the pleasure of the seeker of knowledge.

(Sunan-ut-Tirmizi, vol. 4, pp. 312, Hadees 2691)

Here is a Madani parable for your persuasion:

Repentance of the owner of a cinema

An Islamic brother from the famous city of Hyderabad (Bab-ul-Islam) has stated that it was probably in the year 1991 on one of the weekly Ijtima’ nights, when I met a cinema owner, who was in the habit of gambling and drinking alcohol. I, with the intention to call him towards righteousness, persuaded him to attend the weekly Ijtima’.

After a discussion, he finally agreed to come with me. During the last Du’a, the condition of the cinema owner became very emotional. He could not stop himself from crying, even after the Du’a was finished. He told me after some time that when he raised his hands for the Du’a, and closed his eyes; he felt that the filth of his heart was being washed away. He started recalling his sins, and the consequences of those sins, and the fear of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ made him weep. When his eyes were closed, he found himself in front of the blessed tomb of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم in the city of Madinah Shareef. The area was all illuminated, and the environment was surrounded by fragrance. He continued to cry and he enlightened his heart for a long time with the blessed sight of the Green Dome. اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, he repented from all of his sins.
