Assalaam'aaleykum! I don't know how many of you have encountered those pushy and heavy Tashkeel by our Tableeghi brothers wherein you are left red faced for not being able to pack your bags and leave with them on a short notice, but I just experienced one such Tashkeel and I am sorry to say that I didn't quite like it. I reckon that it might not be the Brothers intention to cause that situation but it just happened. I would like to ask veterans TJ Saathis about what do Usool-at-Tableegh and Akabireen have to say about it. Up to what extent should Saathis try to convince others to go out in the path of Allah? And how does one respectfully refuse if he/she is not prepared to go for whatever personal reason? P.S - I am in no way criticizing the work and dare I ever say anything against it. I love and respect this work. I must also mention that I do have a desire [not just intention] to go for 4 months, but I would only go according to my own Tarteeb. May Allah Ta'ala accept me for this work. Ameen!
