This don't care attitude seem to have affected even some of the practising brothers in the West.
One reason may be that the danger of interest ( Riba ) is not highlighted during the Jummah khutba

One of my relatives were married to a Muslim doctor who belongs to Tablig Jamat. After marriage , we discovered that he took interest based student loans to finance his medical study.

I am very shocked. He has been active in TJ even when he was in the medical school in the UK. Then , why nobody told him to stop taklng interest based loans ? May be , he did not discuss it with anyone and thought that its OK to take interest based loan , since no explicit discussion on riba can be heard in the mosques !!!

Now I am told that he had,somehow, negotiated with the bank to keep the interest frozen !! Is that really possible ?

Anyway, now this doctor goes to Makkah every year for Umrah while his loan from the bank is still not paid back !!

Welcome to the age of reformed Islam !!!
bro firstly please dont publicise your brothers sins or talk about them online, your community should be ashamed of themselves for making this guys sins public and discussing them.

Secondly, i dont agree with your signature. The ottoman empire was not in short supply of socalled spirituality, it was in short supply of adherrence to the shariah. Hence the importance of this discussion
