Noted preacher of Islam, religious scholar Maulana Tariq Jameel's religious services.
[Hassan Ilyas] One point I want to ask in this regard is that, we see in our society
Sectarianism, adherence to factions, and groups, and then sense of superiority
And then these debates and conflicts.
In all of this we see, in a very separate way, the scholars of Tablighi Jamaat,
For example, we see Maulana Tariq Jameel, usually People also criticize him,
Why he went into the mosques of one group or why did he connect to another group.
Or, others groups, say, the people in the film industry, or people like that.
It is also criticized that he mixes with people like this
So I want to know, that the impact
Or role taken up by the Tablighi scholars as a bridge in the society,
How do you see it? And
Specially, the great men, who were from the industries, and from many
work fields, its impact, an ordinary Muslim takes inspiration from it
[Ghamidi] No, I value it very much, to me, the criticisms we have here are absurd
Who can ignore the good works of Maulana Tariq Jameel?
That too, he is sincerely engaged in what he has understood as the religion
Let me say it again, as far as opinions are concerned,
we may disagree with each other on ten points
But one must keep an eye on what a man's passion is
Which purpose does he keep in mind in leading his life
Overall, what is his relation with Allah, his religion and his messenger
He is an ideal person, I may disagree with any of his actions, so may you,
But we must be polite in our disagreement with any action
This should not be taken as an opportunity for sarcasm or ridicule.
He has a special opinion of mixing with people
And also for communicating with people, I may not share the opinion
But we should put ourselves in their place and see that the mission they are on,
is he fulfilling its requirements with honesty?
There is no doubt in it, very caring, very sincere, very loving
Someone who feels for the Ummah, someone who feels for Muslims
He is the most prominent person among the people and we should respect him
It is very unfortunate that we do not respect our scholars as much
The way we should have resect for them in our hearts
We always see people according to our own opinion
And because of this we have divided our stalwarts Imams, sages and scholars
No, this whole Ummah is Prophet Mohammed (Pbuh)'s Ummah
Who attributes himself to the Messenger
He is our brother, because Allah has said that 'innamal mominuna ikhwa'
So all of us are bound in the relationship of 'Akhuwat'
And among those if anyone has dedicated himself to getting knowledge
Or dedicated to serving people, you can serve people in many ways
Repairing their point of view, religious education, training, is also great service
So everyone who does this service should be respected
This does not mean that you should not disagree
You can disagree, do it with knowledge, do it in practice.
But do it with politeness and manners, do it in a way that makes sense
If you have to critique someone, first understand his viewpoint, his opinion
Then, see what you are talking about
Ascertaining people's motivations, attacking their intentions,
I don't know how people will answer for these deeds on judgment day,
Where man will have nothing to say,
Have they never read what the Quran says, 'Istanibukasiram minazann inabadazanneism'
People, refrain from speculating like this
Fault is in the point that a man might be stating.
That is you notice something in his way of speaking, his actions
Define it first, research it, find out about it
If you do not have time to research, then commit yourself to keeping quiet.
Our Prophet (Pbuh) said, 'Speak only if you have anything good to say or be quiet'
So if you have something good yo say, say it
I tell you, if there is anything about a scholar
That you do not like or it does not seem right
There are many things that come to you from many sources
But you see I never criticize, what is the reason?
A person should have enough time to interpret the point of view completely.
If that person is alive, exchange thoughts with him.
Properly understand what he is saying and then point them out.
So a big task would entail that you do just this everyday.
I say what is the need?
I should state what I think is right with regard to the religion, with arguments
The rest of the scholars state things in their own way, if there is any mistake,
so people will themselves compare and decide what is right and what is wrong.
You are not a messenger that you have to invite people to bring Iman on yourself.
Stay in your place.
And if we learn this, we will not be a reason of creating a divide among people.
We will not be dealers of hate, instead we shall spread love.
