Take part in the 12 Madani works

Dear Islamic brothers! If we want to lead a life full of virtues, acquiring ‘Ilm-e-Deen, refraining from sins, contemplation of the Hereafter, having fear of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and obedience to the Noble Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, we should associate ourselves with the Madani environment of Dawat-e-Islami and enthusiastically take part in the 12 Madani works.

2.         Preventing [them] from evils.

3.         Speaking the truth when it requires patience to do so.

4.         Holding a grudge against transgressors. One enjoining people to do good deeds, strengthen the hands of Muslims, and one preventing them from evils brings dishonour to the transgressors.

(Hilyat-ul-Awliya, vol. 5, pp. 11, Hadees 6130)

 

It is stated in a blessed Hadees that the Holiest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was humbly asked: ‘Ya Rasoolallah صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم! Who is the best person among the people?’ He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘The best among people is the
