Take part in 12 Madani activities
For refraining from sins, carrying out virtues and arousing the yearning for Makkah and Madinah, associate yourselves with the Madani environment of Dawat-e-Islami and travel in Madani Qafilahs with the lovers of the Beloved Rasool; furthermore, commit yourself to take part in the 12 Madani activities of Zayli Halqahs. Sada-e-Madinah is also one of the 12 Madani activities. In the Madani environment of Dawat-e-Islami, the term Sada-e-Madinah refers to ‘awaking Muslims for Salat-ul-Fajr’. Awaking Muslims for Salat-ul-Fajr is (undoubtedly) an act of great reward and something that every Muslim should definitely do. It is a Sunnah of Sayyiduna ‘Umar Farooq-e-A’zam رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ as he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ used to wake up people on the way when he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ would exit his house for Salat-ul-Fajr even after the ‘call to prayer’ (Azan), if he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ finds anybody sleeping in the Masjid, he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ would wake him up.

Dear Islamic brothers! اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ Ameer-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat دَامَـتْ بَـرَكَـاتُـهُـمُ الْـعَـالِـيَـه has also bestowed his disciples and followers with this Madani activity of ‘Sada-e-Madinah’ out of the Madani In’amaat. Undoubtedly, daily hundreds of Muslims wake up Muslims for Salat-ul-Fajr acting upon the Sunnah of Sayyiduna ‘Umar Farooq-e-A’zam رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ and they collect loads of virtues as well. Let’s listen to a Madani parable:
Drinker became Muazzin
Here is a summary of a delightful parable related by an Islamic brother from Maharashtra, India. He has stated: Before I associated myself with Dawat-e-Islami, I was a great sinner. I would work the whole day but would waste my hard-earned money in drinking. I would enjoy different evils, call people names, and even upset my parents and neighbours. I was also a compulsive gambler and would not offer any Salah. I was heedlessly wasting the precious moments of my life.
Luckily, I once happened to meet a responsible Islamic brother of Dawat-e-Islami. Making individual efforts, he invited me to travel with a Sunnah-Inspiring Madani Qafilah. His sweet and sincere words touched my heart, and
