Dear Islamic brothers! There will be some fortunate people amongst us who are having the privilege of serving religion by having different organizational responsibilities. We all should ponder whether or not we are giving time according to the responsibility we have. Am I fulfilling the requirements of my responsibility or not? Are 12 Madani activities being carried out with great enthusiasm or not in my city/area/village? Do I have the passion or not for making new Islamic brothers the ones who perform the Madani activities of Dawat-e-Islami, the Madani movement of devotees of Rasool, by associating them with the Madani environment after making efforts upon them? If the answer is in negative, we should also be driven by the greed for: ‘During the time period of my responsibility, may Sunnah spread everywhere, Masajid be filled with Salah-offering Muslims, Madani activities be performed with great zeal and enthusiasm everywhere! May I succeed in achieving the targets which I have been given! May we be blessed with the greed for increasing 12 Madani activities more and more!

‘Weekly Sunnah-inspiring Ijtima’ — one of 12 Madani activities

O devotees of Rasool! One weekly Madani activity out of 12 Madani activities of Zayli Halqah is also ‘to attend weekly Sunnah-inspiring Ijtima’. اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, during the Sunnah-inspiring Ijtima, one gets the opportunities to listen to the recitation of the Holy Quran, Na’ats and reformatory speeches full of Islamic knowledge, do the Zikr of Allah Almighty collectively and repent of one’s sins during heart-rending Du’a along with the opportunities to avoid bad company and to have good company.

Surely having good company and doing Zikr of Allah Almighty collectively are acts of excellence. The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said, ‘When people do the Zikr of Allah Almighty after gathering in a Majlis, so when they get free, they are said: Stand up, undoubtedly, your sins have been forgiven and your evils have been replaced with virtues.’

(Shu’ab-ul-Iman, vol. 1, pp. 454, Hadees 695)

During the ‘Weekly Sunnah-inspiring Ijtima’, the Holy Quran and Na’at are recited, Sunnah-inspiring speeches are delivered, heart-rending Du’as are made, Madani pearls on Zikr and Durood and Islamic knowledge are given.
