Re: Jamaat
That’s not what they say at all, they simply form jamaats to do dawaa in different places, it doesn’t mean it’s their birthright. Even people of different sects are welcome to join a jamaat. I have met some tableeghis from South Africa, Sweden, Bangladesh etc. at the local mosque and they all seemed like pretty nice people. Sure their version of Islam is quite strict but in my experience they have never imposed their views on me. I’ve noticed in Pakistan that there is a lot of hate towards these tableeghis and I can’t understand why, they are not spreading terrorism or intolerance, just doing Dawaa which should be appreciated.
I’m by no means a member of these tableeghis simply because I wouldn’t fit in with their hardline views but I think credit should be given where it’s due, these guys expend a lot of effort into spreading Islam, more than we ever have.
