@firenze

did you see a single person with different color of clothes or without having daarhi .. - jammat is like making dumb people who think darhi and having shalwar up (gangsta style) is starting of becoming a Muslim. These bunch of loony have no taste for life.. culture, music, art … well i don’t much of their beliefs.. but here is the questions:

1. what jammat think of music?

2. What jammat think of art (drawing, picture, statues..etc..etc.)

3. What is Jammat think of sex education for kids?

4. What is jammat think of camera and taking pictures?

5. What is jammat think of using internet or other means of social networking tools?

6. What is jammat think of watching tv?

Those are some views that I have an issue with too, tableeghis appear to be quite strict when it comes to these things. At the same time you don’t see people like Junaid Jamshed, Saqlain Mushtaq or MoYo refusing to be on tv. Strict, hardline Islam does not necessarily equate to preaching religious/sectarian intolerance. My boss is in fact a tableeghi guy who’s very involved, he even took a sabbatical and went on a 40 day tour with them recently but he’s a pretty cool guy who still enjoys life, watches sports on tv and is in our cricket team too. Internet is a big part of our jobs and I don’t see him having any objection to it. He encourages everyone in the office to pray in jamaat which is the closest he’s come to ‘imposing his views’ on others and even in that he’s not actually forcing anything on us.
