(Tafseer-e-Na’eemi, vol. 10, pp. 201)

He رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه further added, ‘The eagerness & passion of building a Masjid, enlivening it or visiting it in order to perform congregational Salah is a sign of a true believer.’ (Tafseer-e-Na’eemi, vol. 10, pp. 204)

Majlis Aimmah-e-Masajid

اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! Dawat-e-Islami is actively working in more than 92 departments for the propagation of calling towards righteousness. Majlis Aimmah-e-Masajid is also one of them which is responsible for appointing Imaams and Mu`azzineen for the enlivenment & establishment of Masajid so that these Islamic brothers call towards righteousness with great fervour and enthusiasm because Imaams & Mu`azzineen play a pivotal role in enlivening & establishing Masajid.

اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! Imaams associated with the Madani environment, keep the Masajid enlivened & brighten it with Sadaa-e-Madina (awakening people for Fajr Salah), conducting Madani Halqas after Fajar Salah, delivering Dars from Fiazan-e-Sunnat, persuading people for performing Salah with congregation (Jamaa`ah) by making  individual efforts and with the blessings of Madani Qafilahs.

1.      The Blessed and Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated, ‘The one who shows affection towards a Masjid, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ loves him.’ (Al-Mu’jam-ul-Awsat, vol. 4, pp. 400, Hadis 6383)

Commenting on the abovementioned blessed Hadis, ‘Allamah ‘Abdur Rauf Manaawi عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـقَـوِی has stated in Fayz-ul-Qadeer: Affection towards a Masjid implies observing I’tikaaf for the pleasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, performing Salah, making the Zikr of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and developing a habit of staying in the Masjid for learning & teaching Shar’ee rulings. Love of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ for His bondsman is that Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ blesses him with His mercy and bestows protection upon him. (Fayz-ul-Qadeer, vol. 6, pp. 112)

Dear Islamic brothers! Keep yourselves within the Madani environment of Dawat-e-Islami for developing the love for our Beloved Rasul صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, seeking his pleasure by enlivening the Masjid, and frequenting Masajid for the five daily Salahs in the remembrance of your Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Travel with Madani Qafilahs as much as you can; fill in and act in accordance with your Madani In’aamāt booklet/card daily whilst practicing Fikr-e-Madinah (Madani contemplation) and submit it to the Zimmahdaar (relevant representative of Dawat-e-Islami) within the first ten days of the new Madani (Islamic) month. May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ bless us with the privilege to act upon it.

ہو جائیں مولا مسجدیں آباد سب کی سب             سب کو نمازی دے بنا یا رَبِّ مُصطفٰے

اَحکامِ شَرع کا مجھے دے دے عمل کا شوق         پیکر خُلُوص کا بنا یا رَبِّ مُصطفٰے

(Wasail-e-Bakhshish, pp. 131)

اٰمِيۡن بِجَاهِ النَّبِيِّ الۡاَمِيۡن صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيۡهِ وَاٰلِه وَسَلَّم

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب      صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
