guys just dont go to the masjids that will be hosting the Imaam, I decided long ago that if it so happens that Im' there then so be it but Im not going to run around for a man, he is but a man, his salah will not raise yours one bit. then ontop of that you travel past 2 or 3 masajid just to get to the masjid that his at, leaving the sunnah of the closest masjid.

but you know what this will go on for ever because people are gugu gaga over these famous imaams. & its more because we atracted to the dhahir & not to the baatin.

That is a good point.

Monday after 'Ishaa salaah one of the Imam of the masjid announced that there would be a small talk on the great sahaba Muaz bin Jabal by a great scholar. I am sure all the listeners wondered who was this great scholar, maybe expecting someone out of town. The Imam then continued and mentioned the name of the main Imam of our masjid, Moulana Ahmad Chohan, who indeed is a very great person

. I admit I laughed but felt ashamed, and immediately the thought came to my mind

"Ghar ki murghi daal barabar" ie "The chicken curry of the house is like lentils".

We should appreciate the imam of our own localities who do so much work for the Masjid and the community in general.
