HARAAM SHENANIGANS IN THE GUISE OF ‘TABLIGH’
A Sister from Pakistan, lamenting the evil of the Tablighi Jamaat, writes:
“My very close friend’s daughter was divorced just because her husband would leave her with 3 small children and go off for tabligh with no one to look after her. She would then be forced to go to her father’s house who was retired. When they asked the son-in-law to look after the wife and children, which was only his Fardh responsibility, the tabligi son-in-law would get angry . Finally there was a divorce, on the ground that the wife and her parents were stopping him from doing the work of deen.
Some tablighis when they come back from the forty days chilla or even three months tablighi safar, and the realities of family responsibility hit them like payment of utility bills, daily house hold chores, illnesses, old age parents who need looking after, they get angry and again go off to tabligh.
I really wonder how can any one get the thousand unit thawab which the tablighis claim, leaving parents, wives and children stranded like this. In many many cases they just go away leaving wives to be looked after by their old parents and brothers. What kind of a thawab this will earn them? They become deaf to any logical reasoning. To them only those who go out for tabligh according to their methodology are the best in the Ummah while others are real sinners.” (End of letter)
Allah Ta’ala commands in the Qur’aan Majeed: ‘Whoever transgresses the limits of Allah. Has verily committed zulm (oppression) on himself.” Among the worst acts of zulm is violation of the Ahkaam of the Shariah.
Allah Ta’ala has imposed on the husband the care and welfare of his wife and children. It is the Waajib obligation of the man of the house to attend to the needs of his family. The Tabligh Jamaat characters are notorious for deserting their families to go on merrymaking jaunts under guise of ‘tabligh’.
Abandonment of the family is zulm which is regarded necessary by the tablighis. For them their zulm is ibaadat. They lack in even the basic Islamic rudiments of responsibility and hayaa (shame). Tablighis come fully within the ‘dayyooth’ stricture stated by Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Many tablighis abandon their wives to go on their ‘tabligh’ excursions. They leave even their wives to manage their shops during their absence. Thus, qualifying for the dayyooth epithet. They have no qualms about their wives interacting with fussaaq, fujjaar and kuffaar males. In such situations it is haraam for a man to go on a tablighi excursion.
They are absolutely cruel with their families who have to struggle to make ends meet during the absence of their tablighi dayyooth husbands. They display blithe disregard for the Shariah and the huqooq of their families. Shaitaan has possessed their brains and has duped them into believing that their merrymaking ‘tablighi’ excursions are rewardable and ‘in the path of Allah’.
The tablighi elders are none the better. In fact, the elders are the root cause for the evils which have emaciated and destroyed the Tabligh Jamaat which has finally split into two evil, hostile factions, each one holding daggers for the other. Their ‘tabligh’ is a farce and they act to appease their nafsaani lusts.
A movement which is in brazen violation of the Shariah is doomed to perish and be deposited in the dirt bins of history. Whatever Shar’i act appears to them to be in conflict with their peculiar innovated methodology, is shunned and discarded. Thus, it is clear that their objective is not the Deen of Allah Ta’ala. On the contrary, their objective is fulfilment of their nafsaaniyat which they are proffering in Deeni guise. As such, they have become signs of Qiyaamah. Among the Signs of Qiyah it is mentioned in the Hadith:
“The dunya will be pursued with the amal of the Aakhirat.
They are totally bereft of Ikhlaas. They sit in the Musaajid reading the kitaabs whilst their hearts are rotten with hatred for the ‘tablighis’ who do not belong to their faction. This has become the occupation of the Tablighis.
