Madni Qafila to Kolar

This Sunday i returned from 3 days Madni Qafila @ Kolar,a small district around 2.5hrs from Bangalore.We started with Shafi Attari,Rabbani Attari(both are Maktabatul Madina Zimmedar),Rizwan,MujeeburRehman,Shakir,Hussain,next day Mohsin Ashrafi and Mudassir Ashrafi joined and then Abdul Qadeer Razawi and Khalid Attari joined in too.
The Qafila started as per the Jadwal from Madni Markaz.Local islami bhai's helped us in food,and cared for each of our need,such a lovely environment Dawat-e-Islami has given.In night after eisha Islami Bhai give Chauk Dars(Speech on corners of road),that day current was out but still all islami bhai's formed 4 groups and using candle light they gave Chauk Dars,that was the moment that touched me a lot,what a zeal what an enthu for Madani work!
One thing i want to mention is Almost 80% of Islami bhai in kolar are NaBaaligh,though Ahkaam-e-Shariat is not obligatory on them but still they wake up at Fajar time and give Sada-e-Madina!(Waking people for early morning prayers is called Sada-e-Madina in Dawat-e-Islami).May ALLAH preserve thier Zajba for Madani work.
We went to Mazar of a Saint above the montains by walk(around 7 + 7 Km) in evening we were totally tired but Kolar have thier Weekly Ijtima on Saturdays at Masjid Qutub Gauri after Eisha,hence we prayed Magrib in Masjid-e-Bilal and then moved towards Masjid Qutub Gauri,giving Neki ki Dawat to all those whom we met.
Last day we left for bangalore after Zohar salat as we had Bangalore's Weekly Ijtima at Masjid-o-Dargah Tawakkal Mastan,Majestic after Magrib,and no body was in bangalore to handle that as Muballigh Aslam Raza went for 12 days Qafila at Gulbarga Shareef for the Urs of Hazrat Khwaja Banda Nawaz Gesu Daraz RehmatullahTa'ala Alaih.

Overall the Qafila was wonderfull as always,the environment of love which Dawat-e-Islami built is so beautifull was the most memorable,went we learnt many Sunnats and Masa'ils.

Dawat-e-Islami is the only Tehreek which truly represents the Islam and its people,non-terrorist,non-extremist,non-political movement,May ALLAH azzawajal give success to this tehreek so that image of islam tarnished by terrorist and extremist is removed and message of peace and brotherhood is spread every corner of World:ameen

May ALLAH keep us going in Madni Qafila as per Jadwal:Aameen

Dars-e-Nizami

Alhumdulillah yesterday I started studying Tafseer-e-Jalalain and Noorul Anwar with Mufti Muhammed Ali Sahab at Al-Jamia-tun-Nooria,Madiwala.With this i have started Alimiyat level of Dars-e-Nizami course(Maulana/Islamic Scholar/Cleric).

When i got into madni mahaul i planned to become a traditionally trained Scholar,I started with learning Arabic grammar while at Chennai.Initially i could not find any Scholar who can teach me,though i took some lessons from a well known Mufti of Bangalore,I felt he was not interested to teach me,hence i got enrolled into Jamia Nooria and started studying under Mufti Muhammed Ali Sahab.

Last year I studied Mukhtasarul Quduri,Usul-us-Shaashi,Mishkaat al-Masabih,Mantiq and Sarf with Mufti Sahab.This year I'll be studying Sharh Jaami,Tafseer-e-Jalalain,Sharah Waqaya,Noorul Anwar,JawahirulMantiq and some books on Sarf & Nahw,InshahALLAH azzawajal.

Since i have personally experienced the troubles a fellow encounters on the way of Ilm,especially if he cant get enroll into full time madrasa,but want to become a qualified scholar.I thought i should write something to aid the new learners.'ll be completing my Fazilat by Sep 2010,inshahALLAH azzawajal,

Ramzan ul Mubarak 2008

This year i'm seeing 23rd Ramazan of my life.I dont how many more ramzans i would see.
In past 23 ramzans i have not done any thing great that would be sufficient for my magfirat,though its totally depends upon ALLAH azzawajal but his beloved prophet said : "Pity on those who got month of ramzan and didnt got magfirat from ALLAH"
When I was very small around 5-6 years,i would ask ammi to wake me up for Sehri(pre-dawn food) so that i would also keep fast,in sehri she would do all preperations very silently so that we wont wake up.But few days she'll wake us for sehri,we used to be very happy and after sehri we would sleep and once we are up we again wanted breakfast!when i reached 10 yrs of age, parents stricktly ordered to fast and pray and since then i'm fasting,its 13 years of fast now,around 1 year 1 month of fasting!
When we were in school after coming on cycle we would be very hungry and thirsty and would eagerly wait for Iftar.After Iftar we rest for a while then run to mosque for taraveeh prayers for more than an hour. After Taraveeh we would complete our school work and bind up.Enjoyed ramzan most during this period.
Then i moved to NIT hamirpur for engineering,i got 4 Ramzans but no sehri for all these 4 years.Iftar used to be good with samosa's from tilak and dinner at Ekta Cafe!
Then came year 2006,i graduated and entered corporate world.Its 2nd year in Job now.I dont feel any thing now.Days are passing same as regular days,no change.same office to home infinite loop.I dont feel ramzan anymore.
This year i thought i'll do some thing but again 7 days have passed but nothing!May ALLAH make me fully utilize the Mubarak Month of ramzan.

Aameen!

Shab-e-Meraj-1429H/2008E

Hazrat Abdul Hamid Sahab Qibla,Khalifa-e-Mufti Azam Hind from South Africa,came to Bangalore on 29th July,a day before Shab-e-Meraj.Hazrat was given the tital of Bilal-e-Mufti Azam Hind,he was present during the Gusl of Mufti Azam Hind AlaihRehmat!

I had the honour to be with him full night of Shab-e-Meraj.He came to Dargah-o-Masjid Hazrat Tawakkal Mastan shah AlaihRehmat,Majestic around 1:30am,there he first went to darbar and then gave a short but powerful speech in mosque,later people did ba'it on his hand.Then we went to Kausar Nagar to a brother's house,there he asked me to recite a Na'at,I recited AlaHazrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan AlaihRehmat 's kalam

Pul se Utaro Raah Guzar Ko Khabar Na Ho
Jibreel Par Bichayien To Par ko Khabar Na Ho ..

he too joined me in reciting the kalam,after i finished he gave dua's to me saying ALLAHummaZidFazid 3 times.Then we came back to place where he was boarding,full night he stayed back to give Taweez and Aurad to people,in fajar he asked me to lead the prayers (as he is Shafa'i Maslak)but i told him my u'zr ,so he lead the prayers.After praying we had silent zikr,dua and then Salam.He was very calm and humble whenever somebody would kiss his hands he would kiss theirs.A brother asked his Turban ,he gave it to him,another asked for his Handkerchief he gave straight away.
Now we started preparing to leave,as i had office and Mufti sahab needed some rest.we all went to him to say bye.when i went to him, i kissed his hands and feet's,he hugged me, i started weeping he said don't worry we'll meet soon,he gave his Shawl to me!
On Saturday 2nd Aug,he was back to Bangalore from Mysore.I reached around 3:30pm to meet him.He saw me and smiled.after lunch he started preparing for his flight for Mumbai.last time when i met him he hugged me,i kissed his hands and feet's,he said next time you get the call from Consultant for South Africa directly come I'll receive you! inshahALLAH azzawajal.

Just a year back on same day i.e Shab-e-Meraj i met another Khalifa of Mufti Azam hind,Sarparast Dawat-e-Islami Mufti Abdul Haleem Sahab Qibla in Chennai's Jamia Majid WalaJaahi.There also i had the honour to meet him exclusively,we had dinner together then we went to Masjid where Mufti Sahab delivered speech and after that went back to his place.It was around 12am,he asked him for dua's he gave so many dua's to me,I told him that i want to meet Ameer-e-AhleSunnat he humbly replied you have met Gareeb-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat now you'll soon Ameer-e-Ahl-e-Sunnat! so humble! I kissed his hands he kissed me saying 'I hope every engineer wears Imama Shareef! I had trouble in transfer to Bangalore,i told him about this he did dua' and on Monday when i reached office i was told that I'm moving to Bangalore within 2 weeks.
I still remember a funny instance.Next day when Mufti Sahab was leaving for Hyderabad his Train from Chennai railway station was at 11pm,i was 5 late to station,i prayed to ALLAH that his train should be late by 10-15 minutes.Luckily when i reached station i found him,but the train was 6 hours late!!!!

ShabanulMu'azzam 1429 - Aug 2008

Alhumdulillah,once again mubarak month of shaban has arrived,starting today.
Yesterday i gave my first full length Bayan (speech) at Dawat-e-Islami's Weekly Ijtima at Masjid-o-Dargah Tawakkal Mastan AlaihRehmat,Majestic. Bayan included Fazail-o-Manaqib of Shaban,Imam-e-Azam and Haji Mustaq Attari AlaihRehmat.
In shaban ALLAH azzawajal writes all the deeds which will be done by people in coming one year.Name of people who would die in next one year is also written.
Huzoor Gaus-e-Azam writes in his book that : There are people who wander on streets and thier shorouds would have come to market,there are people who are busy in thier worldly works but thier grave is ready.(Gunniya-tut-Talibeen)
Though these words make us shiver but with in seconds we are again back to this world.
Today while coming to office i was sleeping,suddenly i woke and in front of me i had a dead body lying on road side.Though Police covered the body in a polythene but still there were some parts of the body which were visible.I saw his legs,his legs flesh was crushed to pieces.Pieces were lying on the road. people gathered around the dead body.I just thought,while leaving his home he would have had so many plans for today,for tomorrow for future,but what happened,an accident and every thing is over

Sunni Dawat-e-Islami Ijtima in Bangalore 3-4 May'08

3rd May'08
Last two days we had Sunni Dawate Islami(SDI) Ijtima at HajiAbdulQuddusEidGaah,Millers Road.
First day i reached at the ijtima gaah after zohar,that time SDI muballighs were teaching Wuzu & Gusl to people.The crowd was'nt much, around 100 people or so.After that SDI muballighs recited Na'ats and gave speeches.After Magrib Qari Rizwan Sahab,recited Na'ats,till Eisha.After Eisha Saani-e-Shakir Maulana Syed Ameen,gave speech.I left at the speech.
When i reached ijtima gaah,i could see only one DawateIslami(DI) muballigh,Aslam Attari.I was not in dress hence not counting myself.After magrib AbdulRauf Attari & Habeeb Attari also came.

4th May'08
I reached Ijtima Gaah around 10am,after picking Noor and his friends from Majestic,who came all the way from Gangavati.Na'ats and Speeched were delivered y SDI muballighs.After Asar Qari Rizwan ,again came on stage and recited Na'at till Magrib.
After Magrib,Muhaqqiq Masail-e-Jadeedah Hazrat Allama Maulana Mufti Nizamuddin Sahab Qibla cam on stage and gave answers to the questions poised by Audience.After eisha ,Ameer-SDI Shakir Noori Sahab came on stage and gave speech on Self change and social change.He said the people should leave Hubb-e-Jaah(Self centered) and Hubb-e-Duniya (love for world). Few months back Mufti Mushtaq Ahmad Nizami,came to my home he said,he knows Dawat-e-Islami from the days when Shakir Noori Sahab used to give dars wearing Green Amama!

Ameer-e-AhleSunnat when visited India years back for Ijtima at a Ground in Mumbai he named that Ground as 'Wadi-e-Noor' its the very same ground where Annual (so called International)Ijtima of SDI is organized.
After Bayan,Tasawwur-e-Madina was done,same as in Dawat-e-Islami's Tasawwur-e-Madina.After Tasawwur the dua was done,.then Salat-o-Salam and end of it.

Then i came across the book written by Shakir Noori Sahab,.The book is of the same size and thickness as Faizan-e-Sunnat.Most of the Chapters are same as FaizaneSunnat.Then There are chapters of Gusl,Wuzu,Namaaz,Hajj,Zakaat etc.

I end this blog with the dua of Shakir Noori Sahab' Ya ALLAH hamien hasad se bacha,hubbe duniya,hubbe jaah se bacha aur mukhlis deen ka daayi bana' Aameen.

Gyarween Shareef Bayan by Haji Abdul Azeez Attari in Bangalore

After the listening to the bayaan of Haji AbdulAzeez Attari on 'Death' i made sincere tauba.But now as the time passes i think the sincerity has diluted.The shiver i felt after the bayaan, is no more.I can still hear the voice of weeping and crying people while bayaan was delivered,i too cried that day,but now no effect has remained.I'm once again into this world,the bad world.
i know I'll be dead one day,i fear from the punishment of Grave,day of judgment and the hell but i don't know what still propels me toward the world.
I'm an orthodox sunni i have read so many books on death,big one like Sharh Al-Sudoor,Tambeeh Ul-Gaafileen and other small booklets by my Guide Ameer-e-AhleSunnat.When i read the book i can feel the cold in my body but once the book is over i'm back to my senses.
when there is no use of reading while i'm reading them?,when i cant learn some thing why I'm wasting my time?Imam Gazali wrote in his book 'Ayyo Hal Walad' 'There is no use of collecting books and reading them,unless you gain knowledge and follow them' and 'On the day of judgment the fellow who had the knowledge but didnt follow it will be the one the most punished fellow'.
Same Imam Gazali wrote in his book 'Arbaeen Lil-Gazali' that 'if a fellow have knowledge and he donot act upon that and passes it to other,then it is good because though he is not able to gain benefit from his knowledge at least someone else has'
the contardiction has let me confused.Any how i should try to rectify my self at any cost.Hope ALLAH will bless me to be Good person soon.

Nigran-e-Kabina Vakeel-e-Attar Haji AbdulAzeez Attari

More than a month before it was planned that there will be JashneGuasulWara on Sunday,20 April'08 which will be presided by Haji AbdulAzeez Attari.All the arrangements were made,all the orders placed,all posters published and pasted on walls,but just 24 hrs before we get a call that younger brother of Haji AbdulAzeez died in Mumbai,hence it will be not possible for him to come to Bangalore.we all were shattered first by news and then his absence in function.If he will not come this would have been the second time we made all announcements and posters but chief guest didn't turn-up.Previously it was during the Urs of Hazrat Tawakkal Mastan Shah, Majestic when we called Sarparast-e-Dawat-e-Islami,Khalifa-e-MuftiAazamHind Hazrat Allama Maulana Mufti AbdulHaleem DamatBarakatahumQudsiya,but he could not come due to his ill health.I still remember how Shafai Ulema blasted me for this!!!!!
Since Haji AbdulAzeez bhai was not coming,Nadir Bhai called Sarfaraz Attari,who moved Shivajinagar by his voice during recent Meelad Celebrations.But Later Haji AbdulAzeez Sahab said that he is also coming.
When we heard this we were totally moved how come a person whose brother died just 24 hrs back would leave his home and come to us.But it is zeal to serve the religion that keeps every muballigh to do work irrespective of the external conditions.
Sarfaraz Attari reached the venue by 10pm and he started NaatKhwani,Later around 12 MN Haji Abdul Azeez Bhai reached the venue.He initially recited some slow Naat the he gave excellent speech on Death,he was already coming after funeral of his own brother and was sad this added more emoting to his speech.
He said the when death comes it do not see weather you're beautiful,weather you're just married,weather you just entered 20's.He said this world is so unexpected, there is marriage celebration in one house,everyone is happy,groom is dancing with his mother and sisters,party is in full swing.Some people are asked to get the tent done ,some are going to get the new suit,some people are buying flowers,water is warmed with scents for giving bath to Groom.And in another house there is person who died recently,people are rushing to get the Kafan cloth,some have warmed the water with berry leaves and called Gassal to give bath to dead body.In first house, suddenly the current go out.Everybody is worrying about the current,groom walks towards the electric meter he tries to join some wires here to there and suddenly current is back.Groom is stuck to wire and within seconds he is on floor,dead.Now joyful laughs have turned to painful crying.Marriage suit is replaced by white Kafan,warm water is used to wash his dead body,flowers are used to put on his funeral.And now Funeral from both the houses march towards the graveyard.Death do not see anyone,death do not see the situation,do not empathise,nothing it just comes.So before we are also inside Grave,under tons of soil do good deeds,make sincere tauba from past sins we have done,and make sincere intentions that from now onward we wont do any sin.
The bayan was excellently delivered,audience was totally moved there were sound of Islami brothers crying in pain,we all made sincere tauba that inshahALLAH from future we'll do good deeds and be away from sins.Dua was extremely painfull,as'aars of AmeereAhleSunnat 'Gunahon ki nahin jaati hai Aadat Ya RasoolALLAH' was recited.
The function ended around 2:30 am.Later Haji AbdulAzeez called all the muballigh of Bangalore and asked them to do madni work more strongly and to spread the peacefull message of DawateIslami.

ALLAH karam aisa kare tujhpe jahaan mien

Ae Dawat-e-Islami teri dhoom machi ho!!!!!
