Asslamo Allaikum Brother,

Tableeghi Jamaat (organisation in English) is not a registered party, group or organisation as such; therefore there is no membership.

Even the name 'Tableeghi Jamaat' was not given by any of the scholars who are involved it; it is affectionately called that in India/Pakistan becauase the group is involved in Tableegh (Dawah: propagation of Islam).

Tableegh (Dawah: propagation of Islam) is a DUTY on all Muslims & it is born out of many verses of the Qu'raan and Ahadeeth, such as:

And whose words can be better than his, who calls (people) towards Allah, and performs good deeds, and says: " I am one of those who submit to Allah

"(O Prophet! Sallallaho alaihe wasallam) preach to them (the Truth), for preaching proves very beneficial for the Believers

O Muslims! there must be a group among you who would invite people to Good; and would command them to do good deeds, and would prevent them from forbidden things; and these are the people who will attain salvation. " (Surah Aal-i - Imran: 104)


Tableegh (Dawah: propagation of Islam) is something that the Muslims have been pretty lax in the last 800 years so it was restarted and organised by a scholar of India called Maulana Ilyas (RA)

Please see his biorgraphy here: http://www.central-mosque.com/biographies/milyas.htm

After his death, the 2nd Ameer was his Son Maulana Yusuf Kandhlawi (RA)

Please see his biorgraphy here: http://www.central-mosque.com/biographies/myusuf.htm

Please note that Maulana Yusuf Kandhalwai authored a book called 'Hayatus-Sahaba' (Life of the companions of Rasul-ullah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) which is a great book for all to read mentioned here: http://www.ikitab.com/index.php3?men...ge=&associate=

After Maulana Yusuf Kandhlawi (RA)'s the 3rd & the last Ameer was Maualan Inaamul Hasan (RA) and you can read about him here: http://www.central-mosque.com/biographies/minaam.htm

After his death there has been no official one Ameer (leader) and instead there is a Shura (conultative body) consisting of 3 Scholars who decide the affairs....

As to your last question; Tableeghi Jamaat don't provide any jobs or financial support as such; on the contrary they recommend a person to spend his own time and money when going in the path of Allah (SWT) for Tableegh (Dawah: propagation of Islam) as Allah (SWT) has commanded in the Qur'aan....

Tableeghi Jamaat do have a program which is as follows:

1) Everyone should at least go out of their locality for 4 MONTHS in their life-time for Tableegh (Dawah: propagation of Islam). This is usually in India/Pakistan/Bangladesh as most of the shcolars of Tableeghi Jamaat are there

2) As a top-up Everyone should at least go out of their locality for 40 days every-year...This can be within the country (US, UK, Europe, where-ever)


3) As a top-up Everyone should at least go out of their locality for 3 days every month; this would be another Masjid in an adjacent city or town close to you.

4) Everyone should visit & invite Muslims to Allah (SWT) twice a week for an hour or so:

a) 1 day Muslims around your local Mosque
b) The other day in the week Muslims around another Mosque of your city

5) Everyone should attend 5-10 minutes of Ta'leem (reading of Ahadeeth) in your Mosque

6) Everyone should attend 5-10 minutes of Ta'leem (reading of Ahadeeth) in your Home

7) Everyone should spend some time EVERYDAY in your local Mosque to think and work as to how every single Muslim in your area starts to practise Islam fully.

Please see any local Brother in your Mosque for more details and to actually go out (for 3 days) to actually experience this.

sorry, I should be more specific.
I'm just asking out of curiosity about that. I think they're great masha'Allah and their work is great may Allah reward them.
Im just wondering how they work-mashaAllah, they come to the masjid 5 times a day,jummah,lectures, etc alhamdulillah,how do they earn a living? Do they as TJ members have a system set up for jobs?

Wasalaam.
