Tablighi Jamaat and Knowledge: Challenges Problems Solution


My Personal observation

I started going in Jamaat from student days at Aligarh Muslim University. When we used to go in jamaat at least 3-4 person whose tajweed are correct used to be there.People with knowledge easy to get.......So correction of Tajweed ,other things was very easy. After Aligarhat other places when I went in jamaat ,Situation was not very smooth,In many jamaat getting even 2 brothers whose tajweed is correct at times become difficult.

So obviously if anybody goes in jamaat in this situation his correctness effort will be jeopardized, and he will not return with the level that brothers are expecting from them.

Maulana Ilyas was of the view that in every jamaath there should be an Hafiz and Alim. But how to get it is a big question.Number of jamaat /brothers willing to go far exceed than the knoelagable person willing to go in jamaat.If you go markaz nizamuddin there they always remain busy in searching the proper ameer and at times even if they understand that you are not fully suitable but they have no other option to make you.

So it is not the fault of Tableeghi jamaat system lather fault on the part of muslim ummah.We all are equally responsible, even if we are not ready to accept it.

POSSIBLE SOLUTION

1.Dont send jamaat if an Alim/Hafiz/scholar is not available.
 Tableegh objective is broad and multifaceted and knowledge is only one of the aspect of deen so stopping someone is not an option anyway.

2.Knowlegable people and Ulemas should go in the path of Allah and to teach the people who are less knowlagable.
This solution is viable one and all muslim should co operate and adopt it. So my first request is for brothers who are part of the discussion and at the same time for all muslims specially those who are scholars/Alims /knowlegable Persons.

May Allah give us taufeeq to understand this blessed effort of dawah and to take active part in it and protect dawah from my malfunction and misconduct that possibly gives the effort of dawah a a bad name.
