AMAAL(actions)
OF MASJID E NABWI
The prophet S.A.W
made every follower to be part of the mosque. He gave specific a’mal (actions)
of the mosque. These actions or activities distinguished Muslim lives.
There was the
discussion in the mosque about Islam, about the greatness of Allah and about
Imaan. There was the discussion that only actions can change or make lives
successful.
There was training
to improve actions. Tashkeel (encouragement) for going out to make Imaan and
good actions, to cities and countries, were also made in the mosque.
Circles of
remembrance of Allah, zikr took place in mosques. Deeds of helping others, love
and benevolence also took place in mosques.
Everyone, ruler or
citizen, rich or poor, businessman, farmer, servant they all came to the mosque
to learn true life, and went back to their different jobs, living according to
the way they learnt in the mosques.
Today we are fooled
that our money runs the mosques. Mosques have become empty of actions and
filled by materials.
In the mosque of
the prophet S.A.W There was no light, no water and no washrooms.There was no
show of any expenditure. By coming to Mosques people became
inviters, teachers,
scholar, remembers, prayers, followers, pious and strivers.
They went out and
led the proper life. Mosques trained and managed the people for the market. By
going out for four months, we should try and practice to bring every Muslim to
the mosques in every town.
While learning
these mosque actions we encourage others for four months so that they can also
learn these actions. When we return to our locality, we have to start these
actions in our local mosque.
