اٰمِیْن بِجَاہِ النَّبِیِّ الْاَمِیْن صلَّی اللہ عَلَیْہِ واٰلہٖ وسلَّم
Dear Islamic brothers! Affiliate yourselves with the Islamic environment of Dawat-e-Islami in order to develop passion for performing good deeds, avoiding sin, being thankful to Allah, working hard in permissible actions, carrying out acts of worship, being steadfast in good deeds and obeying your parents.
Dawat-e-Islami has 12 Islamic activities for you to actively involve yourself in, one of them being to travel around a certain locality and invite its people to righteousness. There are huge benefits to this: masjids remain full, Islamic activities begin taking place in a community and many new brothers affiliate themselves with Dawat-e-Islami. The blessings of this also leads to people beginning to offer salah.
Those who participate in this activity also have their share in the Amir of Ahl al-Sunnah’s duʿās, and they have the honour of positively affecting others’ lives by inviting them to righteousness. To encourage us further, let’s listen to an amazing incident about this.
A Madani qafilah once left from Karachi and travelled to a masjid in Punjab. Much to their surprise, they found the door locked. Once they opened it, they saw everything inside covered in dust. It seemed as if the masjid had been closed for a long time. After cleaning the inside and offering ʿaṣr salah, they went to a nearby park to invite Islamic brothers to the masjid. اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـهِ Many people responded to their call and accompanied them, after which they offered salah together and listened to a sunnah-inspired speech. An old man started to cry in happiness when he saw this, and he exclaimed, “اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـهِ The blessings of being around those who love Allah’s Messenger, and travelling to invite others to righteousness, have led to this masjid becoming full.”
