1..Fazail
e Amaal is collection of Nine books in two volume on virtues/Fazail of
different acts like Salat, Quran, Rememberance of Allah, Dawah o
Tabligh, Fasting and Ramzan, Haj and Umrah, Charity and Huququl Ibad
(Personal Social relation and Obligations).Two other books are Stories
of Sahaba and Present Degeneration of Muslims and its Remeady.
7. Therefore, it is totally incorrect to regard this book as the guide book of Tableegh Jama’at.
2.The
purpose of Fazail e Amaal to encourage muslim to be connected with
Quranic Life.Fazail/virtues of acts/worship strengthen belief on the
Rewards of Allah e.g. If I pray Salat with Jamaat/congregation Allah
will give reward 27 times more, strong belief on the promises of Allah
is the key for moving towards Quranic commands and Islamic way of life.
3.In
Fazail e Amaal On each Topic Quranic Ayats Ahadith has been put
together with great efforts by Sheikhul Hadith(Person who teaches
Bukhari Shareef) Maulana Muhammad Zakariyya (Rah), one of the most distinguished scholar of Islamic World of Last century.
4.In
covering different topics Hadhrat sheikh has mentioned Hadith touching
the collateral topics also. For example if Hadith is about Salat in
which some mention about Child Family Tarbiat (Care) has been done. Then
sheikh in commentary will give the related Ahadith about Family Care
also. This has made the book very useful and effective for encouraging
towards Quranic Life.The millions of people benefiting from, is a
reflection of Allah acceptance for the book and writer.
3.Without any doubt Fazail e Amaal has benefited
hundreds of millions all over the world not only giving Ilm but
connecting them with Quranic Life. Islam is a way of Life and not a philosophy and Practical Islamic life is very important for spreading Islam.
5.Sheikhul hadith Maulana Zakaria has written Fazail e Amaal in accordance with the principles laid down by Great
Imams/Scholars on issues like use of weak Ahadith for encouragement,
etc.........Even Imam Bukhari R.A.has used weak Ahadith in his book Al
Adabul mufrad as it was a book of Fazail, Same case with Ibne Taimmiya
R.A. also..................
Sheikh Zakaria himself was an scholar of Bukhari, taught Bukhari
Shareef for nearly 20 years in India and Madeena, he even has done
scholary work on it ....................
6. Similarly Ahle sunnat ulema is of view that Karamat e Aulia are Haq and stories of Aulia Allah can be quoted.But no ruling Aqeedah Masail can be derived from stories and dreams.This has been practice of all great Salfussalehin including Imam Ibne Taimmiya and Ibne Qayyim Rahimullah.Sheikh zakaria has followed the Salafussalehin Ahle Sunnat Ulema view position while quoting the stories of Aulia Allah.
Ahle
sunnat wal jamaat has believe that Aulia Allah by will and power of
Allah can perform something that is normally considered impossible.
A muslim believe that Karamat is totally under control of Allah.
It is not related to the will or status of a person (Aulia Allah) .
It is by Allah will and not the Desire/status of person have much Role.
Sometimes a person other than Prophet may get Kramat from Allah.
Eg: Quran says that Hazrat Mariyam used to get fruits without season and Prophet Zakaria was not getting,But it does not mean that she became bigger than Prophet.
Karamat/Maujazah may differ for same person at different time.
Yaqub Alaihissalam could not trace from the well of Kunan But By will of Allah he could smell the cloths of Yusuf Alaihissalam from far away Egypt.
So if you will see the Karamat e Aulia with Muslim vision you will find the greatness of Allah.
Otherwise you may find something else if you consider that it has been done by the Aulia Allah, then it will become shirk,as Some of the groups are smelling Shirk in Aulia Allah Stories.
May Allah show all of us Right path.

......................some
muslim groups has some reservation on certain aspect like weak Ahadith
etc. These issues are broad in ummat and not only related with book
Fazail e Amaal and almost all Muhaddith/Imam among Salafus Salehin has
agreed that weak Ahadith are permissible in
Virtues/targeeb/Encouragement. Still...........if someone
is not Comfortable with Fazail e Amaal.He may go in Jamaat/take part in
the Dawah effort of Tablighi Jamaat without using Fazaile Amaal.They
may use other books as below mentioned...........
................
1.Some Groups/Brothers make a Propaganda and claim that Fazail E Amaal is only book read in Tablighi Jamaat and Ijtema.
2.First
of all in Weekly Ijtema Fazail e Amaal is not read at all. In weekly
Ijtema Ahadith and life of prophet and Sahaba (collected in book Hayatus
Sahaba) is Read Only.
3.For Individual Taleem You can chose Tafseer/Hadith/any Islamic Book of Your choice.
4.When
you are in Jamaat in collective Taleem Tableeghi Jamaat Uses these Four
Books.1.Muntakahab Ahadith 2.Fazail e Amaal 3. Hayatus Sahaba 4.
Riyadhus Salehin.
4.Out
of this Muntakhab Ahadith (Collection of Quranic Ayats and Authentic
Ahadith and no Commentry/Stories) is very Popular.So they may use
Muntakhab Ahadith.
1.It is a total misconception/allegation that Fazail-e-A’mal is the guide book of Tableegh Jama’at.
2.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.
3.They
thought it necessary to stipulate such a book that would encourage
people towards good deeds/Virtues of Emaan and Amaal e Saliha,thats why
Fazail e Amaal book.
4However, it is not compulsory upon each an every person who joins this effort to read Fazail e Amaal.
5.Many Places in India and allover the world are using Muntakhib Ahadith(collection of Quranic Ayah and Ahadith on Iman, Salat, Ilm O Zikr, Ikram E Muslim, Ikhlas E niyah,Dawat E Ilallah,and Tark e Layani. ) and Hayatus Sahaba.

6.Many
of the Arabs who are doing this effort chose to read Riyadu-s-Saliheen
instead, and they are carrying on with the work of Dawat-o-Tabligh.
7. Therefore, it is totally incorrect to regard this book as the guide book of Tableegh Jama’at.
Tabligh door is open 24X7.
Come and understand it before making Allegation and confusing Muslims.
The guide book for all Muslims are only Quran and Ahadith.
May Allah save all muslims to be on truth and to prepare for Akhirah.
