نہ کیوں کر سَلطَنَت دونوں جہاں کی اُن کوحاصل ہو

سَروں پر اپنے لیتے ہیں جو تَلوَا غَوثِ اعظم کا

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Dear Islamic brothers! In order to fill your heart with the glory and devotion of Sayyiduna Khuwajah Mu’eenuddin Ajmayri رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه, to receive the blessings of Islamic saints and to develop the passion for gaining and acting upon Islamic knowledge, associate yourselves with the Madani environment of Dawat-e-Islami. Furthermore, take part in the 12 Madani activities of Zayli Halqah with great enthusiasm. One of these 12 Madani activities of the Zayli Halqah is ‘Chowk Dars’ (Outside Dars). Those who enjoin people to do good and forbid them from committing evils through Dars and Bayan are great and glorious.

Hujjat-ul-Islam Sayyiduna Imam Muhammad Ghazali رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has stated: Enjoining to do good and preventing from evil is the Qutb-e-A’zam of religion (Islam) (i.e. it is the important pillar with which all aspects of Islam are associated). Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ sent all the Prophets عَـلَـيْهِمُ السَّلَام to accomplish this important task. (Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, vol. 2, pp. 377)

Let’s listen to a Madani parable of Chowk Dars for our persuasion:
