At the outset I would like to extend ny sincere gratitude and appreciation to the Members of the Imam Ahmed Raza Academy of Durban - South Africa, with particular reference to its dynamic President, Hazrat Moulana Abd Al-Hadi Al-Qaderi Razvi and to a young and vibrant star in the Islamic literary field Moulana Mohammed Nassir Khan AlQaderi for presenting me the honour and privilege of writing the Introduction to this english translation of Hazrat Allarna Arshadul Qaderi’s blockbuster work “Tableeghi Jamaat”. The Urdu original 9f this ingenious work has already taken the Islamic world by storm which subsequently precipitated a hue and cry from the english-knowing Muslims of the world to have this great work of the Islamic World’s greatest pen, Mujahid-e-Ahle Sunnat Hazrat Allama Arshadul Qaderi of “ZALZALA” fame, rendered into the english language. Alhumdulillah? The long-cherished desire of the Muslims of South Africa and the entire Muslim World has been fulfilled by the Imam Ahmed Raza Academy in conjunction with the World Islamic Mission of South Africa for this commendable achievement. The book has been rendered into english by Professor Naim Jamali of Pakistan with tremendous amount of work put in by Moulana Abd ar-Rauf Soofie in its preparatory stages. The concerted efforts of a large number of enthusiastic individuals whose services have been recorded in our “Acknowledgements” has enabled this work to see the light of day 3 sufimanzil.org Tableeghi Jamath BRIEF BACKGROUND TO THE SUBJECT MATTER IN THIS BOOK Ever since the advent of Islam some 1400 years ago the adversaries of Islam have continued to increase and will go on increasing till the Day of Judgement as predicted in numerous Ahadith. The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) had to undergo inumerable hurdles and hardships in Mecca and the birth of Islam was only achieved after excruciating pain and labour. In the face of such determined and resolute opposition from the Kufaar-e- Quraish, the undeniable Message of Islam was proclaimed which culminated in the splitting of the Meccan Community into three distinct Jamaats. The first group who wholeheartedly accepted the message was known as Jamaat-e-Muslimeen. The second group, v1ich vehemently rejected the message was Jamaat-eKafireen. The third group wh4’jnwrd1y rejected and insulted the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) and his Divine Messe but outwardly pretended to accept Islam was known as Jamaat-e-Munfiqeen. Incidently, specific chapters on all these three Jamaats can be found in the Holy Quran. Needless to say that after the pssae of over 100 years, these three Jamaats are still existing today. However, torthe-purpose of this disclosure we will focus our attention on the third Jamaat, the Munafiqeen, because of its relevane-y—to the subject matter in this book. DEFINITION OF A HYPOCRITE Before proceeding further in expounding in some detail regarding this third Jamaat, it is necessary that the reader first sufficently acquints himself with the definition of a Munafiq (Hypocrite) in the light of the Quran and the Ahadith. The simplest manner in which to describe a Munafiq to the lay- Muslim is thus; the present-day Kufaar are divided into two groups. The one whose Kufr is open is called a Kaafir and the other whose Kufr is hidden is called a Munafiq. In brief, the Munafiq is a hidden Kaafir. You must be wondering how and where can a person hide his Kufr where a Muslim cannot see it. BELIEFS OF THE MUNAFIQEEN 4 sufimanzil.org Tableeghi Jamath The beliefs of the Munafiqeen who lived during the time of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) makes interestitig reading and something to really ponder about. After scanning the pages of the books of Ahadith we discover that the Munafiqeen in the era of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) had the following beliefs and characteristics. Space does not permit to deal with each incident in detail as found in the books of Ahadith, the gist should siffice. I. They were in the habit of insulting and degrading the dignity of Allah’s Beloved Messenger (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam). 2. They considered the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) as an ordinary man like themselves and that he was completely powerless. 3. They were strongly opposed to the intercession (Shafa’at) of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam). 4. They outrightly rejected the Wasila (medium) of the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam). 5. They laughed and jeered at the Prophet’s (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) knowledge of the Unseen. 6. They were in the habit of sitting amongst themselves in groups in the Prophet’s (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) Mosque, perpetually creating mischief and disunity amongst the Believers. The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) and his Companions finally threw them out of the mosque and the Munafiqeen were compelled to build their own mosque nearby called Masjid-e-Dirar, subsequently Allah ordered the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) to burn and raze their mosque to the ground. After 1400 years the Munafiqeen of this 15th Century built their mosque in the same vicinity where Masjid-eDirar once stood. This mosque is now called Masjid-e-Noor. Wha an appropriate coincidence. THE PERFECT POST-MORTEM This invaluable book was specifically written for the Muslim masses who are unfortunately and generally simple-minded, unwary and tragically gullible. It 5 sufimanzil.org Tableeghi Jamath is strongly recommended that the Muslims saturate themselves with this book in order to safeguard themselves from these thieves of Faith masquerading as Muslims and your friends, deceiving and hood-winking the simple and unwary Muslims behind their artificial garb of piety. This great work deals entirely with the Munafiqeen of this 15th Century of Islam who were in incubation for 1400 years and have now emerged in our midst under a new label.
