Bishwa Ijtema (or Bishsho Istema, Bengali: বিশ্ব ইজতেমা, the World or Global Congregation or Meeting) is an annual Tablighi Jamaat Islamic movement congregation held at Tongi, Bangladesh by the river Turag. The event focuses on prayers and supplication and does not allow political discussion.The local police estimated the number of attendees of 2007 ijtema to be 3 million[3] while in 2010 the number of attendees was 5 million.

Ijtema is a urdu word that in english is congregation.Any congregation can be called Ijtema But by common meaning it is called for Islamic congregation or meating. And literally also it has difference from conference word.
There is famous Bishwa Ijtema, (Bangla: বিশ্ব এজতেমা) Alami Ijtema or (World Congregation) and small Ijtema are held all over the the world.Although the elders of Nizamuddin donot use the words like Aalami Ijtema/ Tablighi Ijtema but it becomes popular with these names.I would like to have a brief accout on Ijtema and its role in the whole effort of Tablighi Jamaat.
The work of Tabligh is based on the basic effort meeting Muslim Personally at their doorstep may be at houses Markets fields etc.
The basic pattern of Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam work was to go to the people.People not desirous of deen But Prophets used to convince them.
It is most difficult Job.
It is most difficult Job.
If someone is having Desire (Talab) for deen for him/her road is very easy. He can go to Madarsa/Can learn from Ulemas directly or by books.
The main Problem is for those Who dont have Desire about deen. They are immersed in the wordly life no concern of life after death..........
These Could be of two category..
These Could be of two category..
1.Druncard and bad element of Society
2. Otherwise good with respect to Wordly life. But no concern of LIFE AFTER DEATH.........Not attending Prayers......Means of earning is not Halal........Allah command and the way of Prophet is not in life and he is not aware also/Desirous.
They may include highest to lowest person of Society Doctors.engineers, Big or small buisenessman...........to the ricshawpullaer and Hawkers
To bring them to Islamic way is most difficult.
Personal contact with love and mercy and passion is the most effective tool for this section. Tableeghi Jamaat effort is most suitable for these sections................Maulana Mahmudul Hasan The Grand Mufti has compared the work of Tabligh as Rain that benefit everyone.........
HAVING NO TALAB......INABAT.
HAVING NO TALAB......INABAT.
Thats why they go in the Path of Allah and do these activities and while being at home daily meeting for giving Dawah is part of their shedule. and popularly known as Five Amaal that include Mashwara,Daily Islamic learning,Mulaqat(meeting Muslims),Weekly Programme in mosque and 3 days in a month in adjoining locallity within 5-10 Km.
Then what is Role of Ijtema in this Programmae.
1. .It is actually a training camp for Islamic way of Life.Actually the Ijtema also revole around the same Objective. It is not like other conferences having formalities of President /chief guest/Posters/Banners/Decorative Stage...........
2. The focus remain in Ijtema for sending Jamaats from Ijtema, To reach the general Muslim with the Amaal e Dawat and to encourage them to do after returning home. Ijtema is a place of motivation.
3. It also serves the Purpose of Ummathood as in big Ijtema People from all parts of the world Participate for a commpn issue of Allah way of life for themselves and for whole mankind till the day of Qiyamah.
Maulana Abul Hasan Ali Nadvi R.A. Describe it in these words.And he also narrate about the first Ijtema of this kind held in 1941 in Nooh district of Haryana near Delhi.
