knowledge, the first branch of Jamia-tul-Madinah was established by Dawat-e-Islami in 1995, in the Godhra Colony area of New Karachi. اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه Now, branches of Jamia-tul-Madinah (Boys) and (Girls) exist in many countries of the world, such as, Pakistan, India, South Africa, England, Nepal and Bangladesh. In these institutes, thousands of Islamic brothers and sisters are not only quenching their own thirst for seeking religious knowledge, but they are also busy spreading knowledge to others.

The speciality of these jamias is that students, alongside receiving Islamic knowledge, are also given moral and spiritual training. Expressing his love for these students, Maulana Ilyas Attar al-Qadiri  دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـهْ said, “I have great love for the students of Dawat-e-Islami’s Jamia-tu-Madinah, and I supplicate for my forgiveness through them.”

اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه The students of Jamia-tul-Madinah, alongside offering their five daily salah, also offer nafl salah. Many students come together and perform the salah of repentance, tahajjud, ishrāq and ḍuḥā. We should also enrol our children into Jamia-tul-Madinah so that they and us gain benefit in this world and the hereafter.

Dear Islamic brothers, enrolment for Jamia-tul-Madinah begins in Shawwal. We have a great opportunity before us. You should also take advantage of this opportunity and enrol your children into Jamia-tul-Madinah.

Imam Aḥmad Razā Khān’s advice to his murids

Dear Islamic brothers, Imam Aḥmad Razā Khān رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه was an accomplished murshid. He would protect his murids from falling into misguidance and negligence. The great imam exerted much effort to rectify both their inner and outer state.

Let us listen to some of the advice that the honourable imam would give his murids from time to time. Make the intention to act upon this yourself as well. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه
