Tarke Jamat Ki Waeeden

Book Name:Tarke Jamat Ki Waeeden

Mashroo’ for your Nabi صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and these Salahs [with Jama’at] are also from Sunan-e-Huda.

If you offer Salah at your homes as the one who misses Jama’at offers at home so you will give up the Sunnah of your Nabi صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and if you give up the Sunnah of your Nabi صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, you will go astray.’

(Sahih Muslim, pp. 328, Hadees 654)

 

The above mentioned blessed Hadees indicates that the one who offers Salah with Jama’at-e-Aula [first Jama’at] regularly will have a good end whereas  the one who misses Jama’at-e-Aula of the Masjid without any Shar’i reason is مَـعَـاذَ الـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ in danger of dying in the state of Kufr (disbelief).

The people who do not offer Salah with complete Jama’at out of laziness without any reason should pay attention as A’la Hadrat Imam-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat Maulana Ash-Shah Imam Ahmad Raza Khan رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has said: If someone keeps waiting for Iqamat to enter the Masjid after hearing the Azan, he will be a sinner. (Fatawa Razawiyyah, vol. 7, pp. 102 – Al-Bahr-ur-Raaiq, vol. 1, pp. 604)

On the same page of Fatawa Razawiyyah, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه has stated, ‘The person who waits for Iqamat at his home after hearing the Azan, his testimony will not be accepted.’ (Al-Bahr-ur-Raaiq, vol. 1, pp. 451)

Dear Islamic brothers! Majority of our people are such who have their shops in the busiest markets and who spend time in their offices etc., in the name of being busy. Azan starts and ends, Jama’ats end, but they do not even realize it. Moreover, those who offer Salah, they offer without Jama’at. Sometimes, while working or gossiping they even miss Salah let alone the Jama’at, but unfortunately, they do not feel sorry for it. In the blessed sight of pious bondmen of Allah Pak the importance of Jama’at used to be more than even getting any greatest kingdom.

Salah is better than kingdom

Sayyiduna Maymoon Bin Mihraan رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه came to the Masjid, he was informed, ‘The Jama’at is over and people have gone.’ Having heard this, he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه spontaneously recited: ‘اِنَّا لِلّٰهِ وَ اِنَّاۤ اِلَیْهِ رٰجِعُوْنَؕ’ and then said: ‘In my
