The following has been excerpted from speech by moulana Tariq jamil.
“This time when I went for Hajj, a young man had come there from Italy.
He was from the lineage of Sayyiduna Hasan (rz) and was a local of Maraqash (Morakko).
Out of necessity he had been living in Italy. At the age of twenty two he got all the Muslims in Italy moving.
Three hundred mosques have been built, when there had been none. And he had brought with him seventy young men to Hajj.
So immense is the power given by Allah to Muslims. He wasn’t an ‘Aalim [Scholar]. … But the way he brought there [in Italy] this effort to life, he became the means for the construction of three hundred mosques, and a means for thousands of young Muslims to make tawba [repentance].
So this is your work, your responsibility. I neither say, become a member of the Tablighi Jamat, nor am I inviting you to any other group.
[What I say is]: Me and you, all of us become the servants of Allah and His Messenger(s.a.s), and become those who spread to others this servitude. And in spreading it whatever hardships we may face, we bear for the Pleasure of Allah.
From al-Kawthar, the Beloved of Allah (swt), with his own hands, will give to drink. All sorrows and pain will leave. There will be a call there inshallah : “Where are my last Ummatis? When the Deen was being erased, they were the ones who embraced it and conveyed my message and spread it.””
