‘Yaum-e-Tateel I’tikaf’, one of the 12 Madani activities

Dear Islamic brothers! In order to abandon sins and develop a mind-set to perform the acts of worship, associate yourselves with the Madani environment of Dawat-e-Islami. Practically take part in the Madani activities of the Zayli Halqah. Out of the 12 Madani activities of Zayli Halqah, one weekly Madani activity is the ‘Yaum-e-Tateel I’tikaf’ (Holiday I’tikaf).

In this, Islamic brothers go to the areas of the city and surrounding city areas on the day they are off from work and enliven Masajid in those areas. Moreover, they convey the call to righteousness to the local devotees of Rasool and learn and teach the Islamic knowledge.

اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلّ ٭,Yaum-e-Tateel I’tikaf is a great means of teaching Islamic brothers Sunnahs and manners and the method of Madani Dars.

 ٭Masajid enliven due to the blessings of Yaum-e-Tateel I’tikaf.

 ٭Due to the blessings of Yaum-e-Tateel I’tikaf, every moment spent in Masjid will be considered to be spent in worship.

 ٭Due to the blessings of Yaum-e-Tateel I’tikaf, one gets the blessings of having love for the Masjid and spending most of his time in the Masjid. اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ Spending most of the time in Masjid carries an immense reward. Sayyiduna Abu Sa’eed Khudri رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ narrates that the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated: When you see a person that he often visits the Masjid, then testify for his Iman [faith] because Allah Almighty says (in Part 10, Surah At-Taubah, Ayah No. 18):

اِنَّمَا یَعْمُرُ مَسٰجِدَ اللّٰهِ مَنْ اٰمَنَ بِاللّٰهِ وَ الْیَوْمِ الْاٰخِرِ وَ اَقَامَ الصَّلٰوةَ وَ اٰتَى الزَّكٰوةَ

Translation from Quran: Only those uphold the Mosques of Allah, who believe in Allah and the Last Day and keep Salah established and pay Zakaat.
