Allah Taãla states that one reason for this Ummah being titled as the best
of Ummah, is the practice of commanding good and preventing evil'.
Nabi (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) states, 'Whosoever from among you
witnesses evil, he should change it with his hands. And if he is unable to
do so then he should change it with his tongue. And if he is unable to do so
with his tongue, then he should at least consider it to be wrong. And this
is the weakest stage of Imaan. (Mishkãt)
Hadhrat Nuúmaan bin Basheer (Radhiallaahu Ánhu) says that Rasulullah
(Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) gave an example of people sailing on a boat
having an upper deck and a lower deck. The people from the lower deck
require water and request water from the people of the upper deck. The
people from the upper deck refuse water so the people from the lower deck
decide to make a hole on the floor of the ship and get water from the sea.
Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, 'If the people from the upper
deck don't stop the people at the bottom from making a hole, the ship will
sink and all the people travelling will drown. (Mishkãt vol. 2 p. 436)
Similarly, if people do not prohibit evil and sin in the society, the entire
society - innocent and evil - will equally suffer.
Hadhrat Abu Hurayra (Radhiallaahu Ánhu) states that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu
Álayhi Wasallam) said, 'Command good and prohibit evil or else Allah will
send such a punishment that will destroy everyone'. (Ibid).
The above quotations of the Qurãn and Ahaadith of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu
Álayhi Wasallam) are clear that commanding good and prohibiting evil is an
emphasised injunction of Allah and His Rasul. Every person must carry out
this injunction. All the Prophets (Álayhimus salaam) followed the footsteps
of their respective Prophets and after the demise of their Prophet, they
carried out the same mission. The Sahaaba of Rasulullah (Radhiallaahu Ánhum)
spent their entire lives in commanding good and prohibiting evil. Since
there is no Prophet to come, every Ummati of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi
Wasallam) is the deputy of the Prophet and he has to carry on the mission of
the Prophet. The people of Tabligh Jamaat sacrifice their time, wealth and
comforts to undergo difficulty and hardships to go in the path of Allah - to
carry out this Sunnah of the Prophets - commanding good and prohibiting
evil.
As far as the Tabligh Jamaat is concerned, it is our humble view that they
are acting upon this injunction of Allah Taãla and are fulfilling this
obligation of Shariáh. the Jamaat advocates strict adherence to the Sunnah
and confirnes itself within the ambit of the Shariáh. The purpose of any
individual taking part in the Noble work of Tabligh is firstly to reform
oneself and dutifully save mankind from the fire of hell. The overwhelming
success of the Jamaat is mainly because of the manifestation of the six
points which involves the purification of the Naffs and the entity of
Tawheed.

One of my husbands friends went to jamaat, so one of the rules of jamaat is that u have to do gasht-it means you go out and remind muslims about basics of the deen, about the greatness of Allah, about Hereafter and prophethood.... so they went to one of the local shops to gasht, he said when we entered we saw a man with full of tatoos in his body, when we asked his religion he said i am a muslim, he was a chief of local gangster group, thereafter they started to give dawah to him. after some time he agreed to go to masjid with them, he stayed with them that night. night time he waked up and cried before Allah, he asked forgiveness.... in the morning he asked one of learned man what he should do with his tatoos, will Allah forgives him, they said to him to make taubah.....so he went out after one day had passed he brought 5 of his friends to masjid, the next day 5 more.... after 3 or 5 days there was 25-30 friends of this man was in masjid praying with congregation....
what i want to say is that
FIRSTLY: when tabliki people go out to give dawah they do not invite them to tabligh or anything else, they just remind them about basics of the deen which is becoming forgotten.
SECONDLY: that this small reminder can open the veiled eyes and hearts of people with the help of Allah ofcourse. we need just do one step and Allah will help us, When Maryam alayhissalam delivered Isa alayhissalam Allah ordered her toshake the palm tree to get food for herself, she just delivered a child, she has no power to do it, but Allah ordered her to do so, Allah could give her that fruits without her help but he wanted maryam alayhissalam to do a step towards it, she obeyed her Lord. even she does not needed to shake it sh needed to obey command of Allah, similarly with Musa alayhissalam, when he was running away from the people of Firawn and came close to the sea Allah ordered to Musa to touch the sea with his steak(to the nearest effect). Allah could open this sea for Musa without his help, but again Allah wanted Musa to do one step.
So we have to remember that small steps can make big changes.
So lets do small steps towards Allah every day.
Because of this movement there are a lot of non muslims who is converting to islam, there are alot of muslims who is becoming closer to Allah.
If you have a lot of faith in Allah and then you do not have strategy, plan you will be lost one day. The sahaba radiyallahu anhum was worked by the design, strategy of Rsulullah s.a.w
for example when Rasulullah s.a.w sent one of his sahaba to get news from enemys army but he said do not do nothing just get news for me. (dont remember sahaba name) he went there and he could eneter to the circle of enemy where they was making a plan about batTlle. so he sat close to the chief of enemy Abu Sufyan. This sahabA was saying that he could kill Abu Sufyan with his sword but he remembered the words of Rasulullah and obeyed him, he followed the plan of Rasulullah.
Tabligh is a plan. If you have a lot of knowledge you will get confused which one to do, but tablik showed me the way for example the responsibility as a follower of tablik is:
in the morning and evening u have to do zikr 100 third kalima, 100 salawat, 100 times istig'faar constantly, we have to do talim every day-reading hadith, we have to read qur'an every day, men have to pray 5 prayer in masjid, they have to go to gasht, in the morning after fajr they have to sit in circle and do mashvara( after fajr Rasulullah s.a.w used to talk with his sahaba, did they saw any dream, or any suggestions about deen of Allah...)
Tabligh is based on 6 common points which all sahaba used to do:
1. Kalima- to believe that Allah can do each and everything without help of creation and creation can not do anything without help of Allah...
2. Salaat-to learn how Rasulullah s.a.w had prayed and taught his sahaba...
3.Ilm- in each and every condition and situation to know the commands of Allah, zikr- to bring awareness of Allah into our lifes.
4.Ikraame muslimeen- To get the ahlaaq of Nabi s.a.w
5. Iklaas in niyyat- every good action we do, we do it only to pleasure of Allah.
6.Dawah and tabligh- to learn how to use our health, wealth and time in proper manner.
I DO NOT WANT TO INVITE SOMEBODY TO TABLIGH, JUST WANTED TO GIVE GENERAL INFO CUZ I READ SOME INFORMATION ON THIS SITE WHICH IS NOT TRUE.
