CINTA DUNIA TAKUT MATI (www.anaktokimam.blogspot.com)

Cinta dunia takut mati (www.anaktokimam.blogspot.com)

عن ثوبان قال
قال رسول اللّه صلى اللّه عليه وسلم: "يوشك الأمم أن تداعى عليكم كما تداعى الأكلة إلى قصعتها" فقال قائل: ومن قِلّةٍ نحن يومئذٍ؟ قال: "بل أنتم يومئذٍ كثيرٌ، ولكنكم غثاءٌ كغثاء السيل، ولينزعنَّ اللّه من صدور عدوكم المهابة منكم، وليقذفنَّ اللّه في قلوبكم الوهن" فقال قائل: يارسول اللّه، وما الوهن؟ قال: حبُّ الدنيا وكراهية الموت


Daripada Thauban Rasulullah bersabda, “Hampir-hampir orang-orang kafir menyerbu dan membinasakan kalian, seperti halnya orang-orang yang menyerbu makanan di atas talam.” Seseorang berkata, “Apakah kerana sedikitnya kami waktu itu?” Baginda bersabda, “Bahkan kalian waktu itu banyak sekali, tetapi kamu seperti buih di atas air bah. Dan ALLAH mencabut rasa takut musuh-musuhmu terhadap kalian serta mencampakkan di dalam hatimu penyakit wahn.” Seseorang bertanya, “Apakah wahn itu?” Beliau menjawab, “Cinta dunia dan takut mati.”

Saya baca dalam satu laporan bahawa jumlah umat Islam di seluruh dunia sekarang ialah 1.57 bilion dengan nisbah satu orang Islam bagi setiap empat penduduk dunia. Satu jumlah yang amat banyak berbanding agama lain.Namun apa yang dikesali ialah walaupun kita boleh di anggap menang dari segi kuantiti tapi kita kalah dari segi kualiti. Umum menyedari bahawa uamat Islam di kebanyakan negara berada dalam situasi yang tidak boleh di banggakan.

Lihat sahaja di Asia Barat. Negara-negara Arab mengelilingi Israel di segenap penjuru tapi Israel yang bilangannya sedikit dapat berdiri dengan sombongnya. Kata seorang teman kalaulah setiap orang Islam di Negara Arab bersatu membaling batu ke arah Israel nescaya Israel akan tenggelam.Realitinya umat Islam tidak saling bantu membantu bahkan bertelingkah antara satu sama lain.

Semangat perkauman masih menebal. Penyakit tamak haloba menguasai umat. Hasad dengki dan dendam kesumat dan sebutlah semua penyakit hati yang melanda umat Islam sekarang.Maka kita tidak boleh bangga dengan ramainya bilangan kita. Kita mahu manusia seperti sahabat dalam Badar. Bilangan kecil dapat mengalahkan yang bnyak. Mereka adalah manusia yang cintakan akhirat dan mencari syahid di medan jihad.Apa sebab umat Islam sekarang diperkotak katikkan oleh musuh Islam? Mengapa umat Islam tidak menang? Hadis di atas menerangkannya. Kita diserang penyakit al-wahn – cinta dunia dan takut mati.

HIJAB ???

Why She Won't Wear Hijab! (www.zairaazzahra.blogspot.com)
Why She Won't Wear Hijab!A Discussion by A.Q. Alidost
A conversation for Muslim sisters:

"I'm so tired."
"Tired of what?"
"Of all these people judging me."
"Who judged you?"
"Like that woman, every time I sit with her, she tells me to wear hijab."
"Oh, hijab and music! The mother of all topics!"
"Yeah! I listen to music without hijab... haha!"
"Maybe she was just giving you advice."
"I don't need her advice. I know my religion. Can't she mind her own business?"
"Maybe you misunderstood. She was just being nice."
"Keeping out of my business, that would be nice..."
"But it's her duty to encourage you do to good."
"Trust me. That was no encouragement. And what do you mean 'good'?"
"Well, wearing hijab, that would be a good thing to do."
"Says who?"
"It's in the Quran, isn't it?"
"Yes. She did quote me something."
"She said Surah Nur, and other places of the Quran."
"Yes, but it's not a big sin anyway. Helping people and praying is more important."
"True. But big things start with small things."
"That's a good point, but what you wear is not important. What's important is to have a good healthy heart."
"What you wear is not important?"
"That's what I said."
"Then why do you spend an hour every morning fixing up?"
"What do you mean?"
"You spend money on cosmetics, not to mention all the time you spend on fixing your hair and low-carb dieting."
"So?"
"So, your appearance IS important."
"No. I said wearing hijab is not an important thing in religion."
"If it's not an important thing in religion, why is it mentioned in the Noble Quran?"
"You know I can't follow all that's in Quran."
"You mean God tells you something to do, you disobey and then it's OK?"
"Yes. God is forgiving."
"God is forgiving to those who repent and do not repeat their mistakes."
"Says who?"
"Says the same book that tells you to cover."
"But I don't like hijab, it limits my freedom."
"But the lotions, lipsticks, mascara and other cosmetics set you free?!What's your definition of freedom anyway?"
"Freedom is in doing whatever you like to do."
"No. Freedom is in doing the right thing, not in doing whatever we wish to do."
"Look! I've seen so many people who don't wear hijab and are nice people, and so many who wear hijab and are bad people."
"So what? There are people who are nice to you but are alcoholic. Should we all be alcoholics? You made a stupid point."
"I don't want to be an extremist or a fanatic. I'm OK the way I am without hijab."
"Then you are a secular fanatic. An extremist in disobeying God."
"You don't get it, if I wear hijab, who would marry me?!"
"So all these people with hijab never get married?!"
"Okay! What if I get married and my husband doesn't like it? And wants me to remove it?"
"What if your husband wants you to go out with him on a bank robbery?!"
"That's irrelevant, bank robbery is a crime."
"Disobeying your Creator is not a crime?"
"But then who would hire me?"
"A company that respects people for who they are."
"Not after 9-11"
Yes. After 9-11. Don't you know about Hanan who just got into med school?And the other one, what was her name, the girl who always wore a white hijab... ummm..."
"Yasmin?"
"Yes. Yasmin. She just finished her MBA and is now interning for GE."
"Why do you reduce religion to a piece of cloth anyway?"
"Why do you reduce womanhood to high heals and lipstick colors?"
"You didn't answer my question."
"In fact, I did. Hijab is not just a piece of cloth. It is obeying God in a difficult environment. It is courage, faith in action, and true womanhood.But your short sleeves, tight pants..."
"That's called 'fashion', you live in a cave or something? First of all, hijab was founded by men who wanted to control women."
"Really? I did not know men could control women by hijab."
"Yes. That's what it is."
"What about the women who fight their husbands to wear hijab? And women in France who are forced to remove their hijab by men? What do you say about that?"
"Well, that's different."
"What difference? The woman who asked you to wear hijab... she was a woman, right?"
"Right, but..."
"But fashions that are designed and promoted by male-dominated corporations, set you free? Men have no control on exposing women and using them as a commodity?! Give me a break!"
"Wait, let me finish, I was saying..."
"Saying what? You think that men control women by hijab?"
"Yes."
"Specifically how?"
"By telling women how and what to wear, dummy!"
"Doesn't TV, magazines and movies tell you what to wear, and how to be 'attractive'?"
"Of course, it's fashion."
"Isn't that control? Pressuring you to wear what they want you to wear?"
[Silence]
"Not just controlling you, but also controlling the market."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, you are told to look skinny and anorexic like that woman on the cover of the magazine, by men who design those magazines and sell those products."
"I don't get it. What does hijab have to do with products."
"It has everything to do with that. Don't you see? Hijab is a threat to consumerism, women who spend billions of dollars to look skinny and live by standards of fashion designed by men... and then here is Islam, saying trash all that nonsense and focus on your soul, not on your looks, and do not worry what men think of your looks."
"Like I don't have to buy hijab? Isn't hijab a product?"
"Yes, it is. It is a product that sets you free from male-dominated consumerism."
"Stop lecturing me! I WILL NOT WEAR HIJAB!
It is awkward, outdated, and totally not suitable for this society... Moreover, I am only 20 and too young to wear hijab!"
"Fine. Say that to your Lord, when you face Him on Judgment Day."
"Fine."
"Fine."
[Silence]
"Shut up and I don't want to hear more about hijab niqab schmijab Punjab!"
[Silence]
She stared at the mirror, tired of arguing with herself all this time.
Successful enough, she managed to shut the voices in her head, with her own opinions triumphant in victory on the matter, and a final modern decision accepted by the society - but rejected by the Faith:
"Yes!" - to curls on the hair - "No!" - to hijab!

"And he (/she) is indeed a failure who corrupts it [the soul]!" [Noble Quran 91:10]
Subhana'Allah!!!

"Nay! You prefer the life of this world; While the hereafter is better and more lasting." [Noble Quran 87:16-17]

"You are the best community (Ummah) raised up for (the benefit of) humanity; enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong and believing in Allah." [Noble Quran 3:110]

QUESTION ABOUT TABLEEGH JAMA'AT

By : Mufti Ebrahim Desai (Fatwa Dept) http://www.askimam.org

Question


I am a brother from Sri Lanka. I, Alhamdulillah try my best to read, understand and live according to Quran and authentic after I read the Hadith. of Rasool (SAW) which says “as long as we hold on to Quran and authentic hadith we will not go astray”.
For a long time, a number of my relatives and friends involved in the Tabligh work have been calling me to join the group. But I am not convinced because:
1. I don’t find any Quarnic verse or hadith describing Tabligh jamaath as being the one correct path that leads to Jannah, 2. The followers of Tabligh jamaath regarding Fazail-e-Amaal as the main guide book, although it contains information directly contradicting Quran and hadith A few of the contradictions are explained in these web pages.
www.fatwa-online.com/deviantgroups/jamaaahattableegh/0011001.htm
www.ahya.org/amm/modules.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=105

When I ask my friends who have been with Tableegh Jamath for decades about the link and Fazail-e-Amal, they tell me they are not competent enough to answer and requested me to go to Colombo markaz. I went to the markaz and asked, they also refused to answer, saying that the scholars who are capable of answering such a question are away, and cant tell a definite time when they will be back.A learned friend of mine, who follows TJ, advised me not to bother too much about the fabricated hadit, and misguiding stories in the Fazail-e-Amal since it has been written by a scholar with extraordinary knowledge. But when I told him, in that case we have to follow all the groups such as Shias, Qadianis, etc., because their beliefs are also built on fabricated hadith and false stories, he had no comment.

Brothers, I am sure since Allah has given you a lot of knowledge you will not be taking a chance with your life in the Aakhirah, unless you are absolutely sure of Tableegh Jamaath being the one correct path. Since my only goal in life is being admitted to Jannah, please share this information with me.

If you can convince me that Tablegh Jamaath is the way to Jannah I will inshallah dedicate what remains of my life and wealth for Tableegh Jamaath.

Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

Tableegh Jama’at
A brief introduction
Tableegh literally means ‘to convey’. Contextually, it refers to conveying the message of Islam. This is the sunnah of all the prophets. The most important rule of tableegh is hikmah. Allah Ta’ala says in the Holy Quran:
ادع إلى سبيل ربك بالحكمة والموعظة الحسنة
Invite (people) to the way of your lord with wisdom and good counsel.
(Verse: 16:125)
Whosoever does tableegh must adopt hikmah. It is only then, that people will understand and accept.


The system conducted by the Tableegh Jama’at was initiated by Moulana Ilyas Saheb (Rahimahullah). He observed that people were too engrossed in their worldly activities and had forgotten the objective for which they had been sent to this world. He realised that they had to free some time from their worldly engagements, to sit and ponder about Allah Ta’ala and their purpose for being sent to this world. Therefore, he started calling people to the masjid, and reminded them about Allah Ta’ala and His greatness. Initially people rebuked him, they discouraged him and used to say that they had no time for all of this; but as time went by, they realised the truth behind it and the need for it, and started joining him in calling others towards Allah Ta’ala. Thereafter, when more people started joining this work, a few guidelines had to be set, to make sure that the work was done in a proper manner. Different time periods of 3 days, 40 days, etc. were set, so that people knew for how long they had to be away, and could make the necessary arrangements for that period.

Their beliefs and objectives
Those that are engaged in the work of tableegh are from the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah. They do not have any beliefs that are exclusive to them. Each one is allowed to follow his own mazhab, as long as he does not move away from the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah.


Their objective is that each and every Muslim adopts the Islamic way in all aspects of life. They do not advice anyone to leave all their daily activities and join this work, but they encourage people to take out some time from their daily engagements so that the rest of the time could be spent in accordance to the teachings of Islam. Spending time in the path of Allah is not the objective of the work, but rather the objective is to adopt the Islamic lifestyle whilst engaged in daily activities, whether one is at home with family or at his work place; spending time in the path of Allah Ta’ala only acts as a means to fulfil this objective.

Proof from Quran and Hadith
There are numerous verses of the Quran and the Ahadith of Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) that support the practice of tableegh. Hereunder are a few of them:
From the Holy Quran:
1.
ادع إلى سبيل ربك بالحكمة والموعظة الحسنة
Invite (people) to the way of your lord with wisdom and good counsel.
(Verse: 16:125)


2.
ولتكن منكم أمة يدعون إلى الخير ويأمرون بالمعروف وينهون عن المنكر
And there has to be a group of people from among you who call towards good and prevent from evil.
(Verse: 3:104)


3.
ومن أحسن قولا ممن دعا إلى الله وعمل صالحا وقال إنني من المسلمين
And who is better in utterance than the one who called people towards Allah, and acts righteously and says, “I am one of those who submit themselves (to Allah Ta’ala).
(Verse: 41:33)


From the Ahadith of Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam):
4.
فقال أبو سعيد أما هذا فقد قضى ما عليه سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول من رأى منكم منكرا فليغيره بيده فإن لم يستطع فبلسانه فإن لم يستطع فبقلبه وذلك أضعف الإيمان
Hazrat Abu Sa’eed (Radhiyallahu Anhu) narrates that he heard Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) saying, “Whosoever witnesses a forbidden act being committed, he should prevent it by the use of his hands; if he is unable to do so, then he should prevent it with his tongue; if he is unable to do so, he should at least consider it a vice in his heart; and this is a very low level of Iman”.
Sahih Muslim Vol.2 Pg.211/2 (Darul Ma’rifah)

5.
عن النعمان بن بشير رضي الله عنهما عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال مثل القائم على حدود الله والواقع فيها كمثل قوم استهموا على سفينة فأصاب بعضهم أعلاها وبعضهم أسفلها فكان الذين في أسفلها إذا استقوا من الماء مروا على من فوقهم فقالوا لو أنا خرقنا في نصيبنا خرقا ولم نؤذ من فوقنا فإن يتركوهم وما أرادوا هلكوا جميعا وإن أخذوا على أيديهم نجوا ونجوا جميعا
It has been reported by Nu’man bin Bashir (Radhiyallahu Anhu) that Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: “There are people who do not transgress the limits (laws) of Allah Ta’ala, and there are others who do so. They are like two groups who boarded a ship; one of them settled on the upper deck, and the other on the lower deck of the ship. When the people of the lower deck needed water, they said, “Why should we cause trouble to the people of the upper deck when we can have plenty of water by making a hole in our deck”. Now, if the people of the upper deck do not prevent this group from such foolishness, all of them will perish; but if they stop them, they will be saved”.
Sahih Al Bukhari Vol.3 Pg.152 (Darul fikr)


One may question that the above mentioned Aayaat and Ahadith only prove the practice of Tableegh. They do not prove the manner in which it is coordinated by the Tabligh Jama’at (e.g. specifying the time period of 40 days, stipulating time for ta’lim and gusht, etc.).

The answer to this is simple. There are some commandments in Shari’ah in which the method is not stipulated. For example, it is a commandment of Shariah to acquire knowledge, but the manner in which the Madrasas are established today, is not proven through Quran and Hadith. Up until the recent past, the scholars used to teach in the masjids of their respective towns and villages. The students had to go to different scholars to learn the different sciences. No arrangements of food or boarding were made. However, the zeal for knowledge had decreased as time went by, and the scholars felt it necessary to establish the system of Darul Ulooms as is established today. Nobody regards such a system to be bid’ah.

Similarly, Shariah has commanded us to do the work of tableegh. This work used to be done on an individual basis. The learned people used to preach the others and prevent them from all vices. As time went on, vice started prevailing, and people had stopped doing the work on an individual basis; therefore, a collective effort had to take place, and rules had to be set up for the work to carry on in order.

The outcome of Tableegh
Anyone with a sound mind and fair thinking will have no option but to accept that the work of Tableegh has been responsible, to a great extent, in the reformation that has taken place in the Muslim Ummah, in the last few decades. Tableegh Jama’at has played a big role in the establishment of madrasas in the last few years. Similarly, it has influenced many Muslim men and women in adapting their attire and appearance in accordance to sunnah. It acts as a deterrent for the Muslim youth from going to cinemas, night clubs, discothèques, raves and all other places of sin. Cricket players like Sa’eed Anver and pop singers like Junaid Jamshed, who were drowned in sin, have now become the means for spreading Islam. Tabligh Jama’at plays an important role in preaching Islam to those who have even forgotten the kalimah, like those staying in the Kazakhistan, , etc. and the descendants of Arabs staying in South America. Many non Muslims have also accepted Islam through this effort.


Fazail-e-A’mal
A brief introduction:
This kithab was compiled by Hazrath Shaikh Zakariya (Rahimahullah). It consists of Aayaats of the Quran, Ahadith, stories of the Sahabah and stories of the pious predecessors that explain the virtues of good deeds. The object of the book is to encourage the Muslims on doing good deeds, and not to explain any ruling of Shari’ah. Shaikh Zakariya (Rahimahullah) was not the first to write a kithab of this manner, but the likes of this kithab have been written by the authors of the past, like Kithab-u-Zuhd by Abdullah bin Mubarak (Rahimahullah), Fadhaiulul Quran by Imam Shafi’ (Rahimahullah), Al Adabul Mufrad by Imam Bukhari (Rahimahullah), Al Targheeb Wal Tarheeb by Ibnul Qayyim Munziri (Rahimahullah), etc.


The role of Fazail-e-A’mal in Tableegh Jama’at
It is a total misconception that Fazail-e-A’mal is the guide book of Tableegh Jama’at. This book only consists of the virtues of good deeds. The concept of Tableegh Jama’at was not derived from this book, nor is the jama’at dependant on this book to do the work of tableegh. They thought it necessary to stipulate such a book that would encourage people towards good deeds, and this book served the purpose; therefore, the people who join this work are advised to stipulate a specific time for the reading of this book. However, it is not compulsory upon each an every person who joins this effort to read this book. Many of the Arabs who are doing this effort chose to read Riyadu-s-Saliheen instead, and they are allowed to carry on with this work. Similarly, Riyadu-s-Saliheen is also read in many of the masjids in Colombo on certain days of the week. Therefore, it is totally incorrect to regard this book as the guide book of Tableegh Jama’at.


Some objections made against Fazail-e-A’mal:
1. A common comment made against Fazail-e-A’mal is that some of the narrations mentioned in it are weak and fabricated. This comment is not totally correct, as there are no fabricated narrations in this book. There are dha’eef (weak) narrations in Fazail-e-A’mal. However, it is important to point out that the word dha’eef, literally translated as ‘weak’, is a terminology and should not be understood in its general sense. Its application is based on the rules explained in the sciences of hadith. Moreover, weak narrations are not acceptable only in regards to aqeedah and the rulings of Islamic jurisprudence. Majority of the scholars have accepted weak narrations as far as virtues of good deeds are concerned. Even Imam Bukhari (Rahimahullah) has brought weak narrations in his book, Al Adabul Mufrad, which shows that he also accepts weak narrations in regards to virtues of good deeds.


2. Some scholars claim that there are such narrations in Fazail-e-A’mal, especially in Fazail-e-Durood, that prove that the author had beliefs of shirk and believed in the Omnipresence of Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). These are false allegations made against the author, who was one of the most prominent scholars of the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama’ah.

Firstly, such allegations are made mostly by Arab scholars, who are unaware of the difference between the Deobandis and the Barelwis. They regard both these groups to be one, as both of them are from , and attribute the beliefs of Barelwis to the Deobandis. It is some of the Barelwis who believe in grave-worshipping and the Omnipresence of Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam), and these beliefs have been attributed to the Deobandis. Some of these Arab scholars, like Shaikh Ibn Uthaymeen (Rahimahullah), retracted from what they said after the actual situation was explained to them.

Secondly, the author has mentioned references for each and every narration or incident he has mentioned. Therefore, any comments regarding these narrations or incidents should be attributed to the author of the reference provided, as Shaikh Zakariya (Rahimahullah) has absolved himself by giving the reference.

Thirdly, most of the incidents mentioned in Fazail-e-Durood are of pious predecessors. It is incorrect to say that these are fabricated Ahadith, as the word Hadith is used for the sayings of Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). It is also incorrect to confirm the beliefs of the author through these incidents, as the object of the author was only to emphasise on the virtues of durood mentioned in them.

Moreover, most of the incidents mentioned are dreams, and no rulings of Shari’ah can be derived from dreams. It is farfetched to confirm someone’s faith from a dream, of another person, mentioned in his kithab.

Lastly, most of the copies of Fazail-e-A’mal do not have Fazail-e-Durood attached to them, and it is not considered as part of the kithab-reading stipulated by the Tableegh Jama’at.

3. It is incorrect to compare the Shias, Qadiani, etc. with Tableegh Jama’at as we have clarified above that Tableegh Jama’at is not based on the narrations of Fazail-e-A’mal; and none of the narrations of Fazail-e-A’mal are fabricated.

To end thereof, one should not be misguided with all the false accusations on this jama’at, but rather look at how the Ummah has benefited through this jama’at. We should always supplicate to Allah Ta’ala to show us the right path and save us from the misguidance of Shaitan. Moreover, we should always bear in mind that the pious and the learned amongst the Ummah cannot be unanimous upon something that is false or not part of Islam, as Nabi (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has mentioned:

إن الله لا يجمع أمتي أو قال أمة محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم على ضلالة ويد الله مع الجماعة ومن شذ شذ إلى النار

Allah Ta’ala will not unite the Ummah of Muhammed (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) upon misguidance. Allah’s help is with majority. Whoever deviates from them will be thrown into the fire of Jahannum.
Sunan Al Tirmizi Vol.2 Pg.39 (H.M. Sa’eed Company)


A thought provoking act
How will one account for the many thousands of people all around the world, Arabs and non-Arabs, and of all works of life, be they great Ulama, Muftis, intellectuals or professionals, to be associated with this noble work. They all cannot be wrong. They must have encountered something positive in this work for them to be part of it. The solution is, come within and see for yourself.

TABLIGH ( MUFTI EBRAHIM DESAI, FATWA DEPT :www.askimam.org

Tabligh (by Mufti Ebrahim Desai)

Allah Taãla states that one reason for this Ummah being titled as the best of Ummahs, is the practice of 'commanding good and preventing evil'

Nabi (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) states, "Whosoever from among you witnesses evil, he should change it with his hands. And if he is unable to do so then he should change it with his tongue. And if he is unable to do so with his tongue, then he should at least consider it to be wrong. And this is the weakest stage of Imaan." (Mishkãt)

Hadhrat Nuúmaan bin Basheer (Radhiallaahu Ánhu) says that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) gave an example of people sailing on a boat having an upper deck and a lower deck. The people from the lower deck require water and request water from the people of the upper deck. The people from the upper deck refuse water so the people from the lower deck decide to make a hole on the floor of the ship and get water from the sea. Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "If the people from the upper deck don't stop the people at the bottom from making a hole, the ship will sink and all the people travelling will drown." (Mishkãt vol. 2 p. 436)

Similarly, if people do not prohibit evil and sin in the society, the entire society - innocent and evil - will equally suffer.

Hadhrat Abu Hurayra (Radhiallaahu Ánhu) states that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Command good and prohibit evil or else Allah will send such a punishment that will destroy everyone." (Ibid)

The above quotations of the Qurãn and Ahaadith of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) are clear that commanding good and prohibiting evil is an emphasised injunction of Allah and His Rasul. Every person must carry out this injunction. All the Prophets (Álayhimus salaam) followed the footsteps of their respective Prophets and after the demise of their Prophet, they carried out the same mission. The Sahaaba of Rasulullah (Radhiallaahu Ánhum) spent their entire lives in commanding good and prohibiting evil. Since there is no Prophet to come, every Ummati of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) is the deputy of the Prophet and has to carry on the mission of the Prophet. The people of Tabligh Jamaat sacrifice their time, wealth and comforts to undergo difficulty and hardships to go in the path of Allah - to carry out this Sunnah of the Prophets - commanding good and prohibiting evil.

As far as the Tabligh Jamaat is concerned, it is our humble view that they are acting upon this injunction of Allah Taãla and are fulfilling this obligation of Shariáh. the Jamaat advocates strict adherence to the Sunnah and confines itself within the ambit of the Shariáh. The purpose of any individual taking part in the noble work of Tabligh is firstly to reform oneself and dutifully save mankind from the fire of hell. The overwhelming success of the Jamaat is mainly because of the manifestation of the six points which involves the purification of the Naffs and the entity of Tawheed.

The word 'Tashkeel' literally means 'to form'. In the terminology of Tabligh, it means to urge the people to give time, to come out in the path of Allah for self reformation and propagating good for a number of days 3, 7, 40, 4 months, 1 year, etc. The number of days is also not compulsory, it is only recommended just as it is recommended that a person studying first aid, for example, serves one month as practicals. While he will not be an expert in medicine, he will know the basic things to do during an emergency. Similarly, a person going out for 3 days, 40 days, 4 months, etc. does not become an expert on Shariáh, but he will learn the basic requirements of Shariáh. The more time he gives, the more he will learn and perfect himself. The time frame is not a criteria according to Shariáh.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Mungkin atas sebab peraturan sekolah gurunya telah menasihatinya berkali-kali supaya menanggalkan Tudungnya, Namun setelah beberapa kali dinasihatinya, guru tersebut gagal membuatkan kanak-kanak tadi mengikuti perintahnya. Maka guru tersebut pun dengan nada merayu “ Apa lagi cara supaya saya dapat menanggalkan tudungmu?”, dan anak muridnya mengatakan “ Wahai cikgu, ambilah sebilah pedang dan sembelih leher saya, barulah cikgu dapat menanggalkan tudung saya ini.”. Darimana datangnya jazbah(semangat) yg tinggi ini?, tentulah menerusi perantaraan dakwah dari rumah.

Begitu juga dengan kisah seorang kanak-kanak islam di London, Seorang guru bertanya kepada anak muridnya apabila besar nanti nak jadi apa (cita-cita) ?. Maka ramai anak muridnya mengatakan ingin menjadi Doktor, Lawyer, Engineer, Guru dan sebagainya. Namun seorang anak muridnya mengatakan “ Saya ingin menjadi seperti Sahabat-sahabat nabi.” Gurunya hairan kerana tidak ada dalam Kamus Dewan ke, Oxford ke, pekerjaan tersebut. Setelah ditanya oleh gurunya, muridnya mengatakan supaya kalau gurunya nak tahu sangat bolehlah Tanya dengan ibunya. Dipendekkan cerita guru tadi pun pergi berjumpa dengan ibu anak muridnya tadi. Setelah ditanya, ibu murid tadi pun menerangkan tentang SIAPA SAHABAT dan menerangkan tentang ISLAM pada guru tadi. Setelah mendengar penjelasan ibu tadi, guru tersebut pergi dan datang kembali keesokan harinya dengan membawa ahli keluarganya yang lain untuk menyatakan hasrat mereka untuk MENERIMA ISLAM.

Ini merupakan cerita benar dan bukannya cerita Penglipur lara seperti Sang Kancil dan Buaya. Inilah pentingnya dalam rumah ada suasana dakwah dan taklim taklum (ajar mengajar) dalam rumah. Sang Suami buat dakwah di luar, sang ibu buat dakwah dalam rumah dengan anak-anak dan tetamu yang datang. Sebab itu jemaah masturat (suami isteri) keluar di jalan Allah untuk bentuk fikir agama bagi kaum wanita. Golongan ibu lah yg meluangkan lebih banyak masa dengan anak-anak di rumah. Apabila golongan ibu mempunyai fikir atas agama maka anak-anak akan ditarbiah mengikut Sunnah seperti mana para sahabiah telah asuh anak-anak mereka di rumah. Oleh itu, dari rumah-rumah sahabat keluar hafiz-hafiz quran, alim dan daie’2 pembantu agama Allah. Di Perancis sendiri, asbab usaha Masturat disana maju, lebih kurang 200 ribu golongan wanita telah kembali pada Islam dan lengkap dengan Hijab pada tahun 2008 sahaja (karkuzari/laporan jemaah 4bulan Negara Jauh).

Dengan penglibatan golongan wanita dalam usaha agama/dakwah, hidayat akan cepat tersebar dengan izin Allah. Begitu juga sebaliknya. Ulama bagitahu seperti mana, Nabi Nuh as telah buat dakwah selama 950tahun, namun segelintir yg beriman asbab tentangan daripada Isteri dan anaknya. Sebaliknya, Hidayat cepat tersebar apabila wanita turut sama dalam dakwah seperti mana kefahaman agama dan dorongan drpd Siti Hajar ke atas Nabi Ibrahim dan Daripada Khadijah r.ha pada Nabi SAW. Wallahu a’lam
