Dear Islamic brothers!  What great blessings the shrines of pious saints have! The person, who visits them, gets his wishes fulfilled! Therefore, we should also visit the shrines of pious saints and attend their ‘Urs, from time to time, as per Shari’ah in order to develop love and devotion to them. On the occasion of ‘Urs, various booklets should be distributed with the intention of propagating the call towards righteousness. Visitors should also be advised to offer Salah regularly. An individual effort should be made to persuade the visitors to act upon the Madani In’amaat and to travel with Madani Qafilahs. A proper arrangement should be made to watch or show Madani Muzakarah via Madani Channel inside the Masjid or in the vicinity of the Masjid, wherever it is possible. On the day of weekly Ijtima’, Islamic brothers should be presented the invitation of attending nearby weekly Ijtima’. After establishing a Madani Tarbiyyat-Gah, efforts should be made to provide the devotees of Rasool with mandatory knowledge, and to teach them Sunnahs and manners.
