Tablighi Jamaat (Tablīghī Jamā‘at; lit. Society for spreading faith) is a non-political global missionary movement that focuses on urging Muslims to return to Practicing Islam,[5][6] and particularly in matters of ritual, dress, and personal behavior.[7] The organisation is estimated to have between 12 million[8] and 150 million adherents[3] (the majority living in South Asia[9]), and a presence in somewhere between 150[8] and 200 countries.[3] It has been called "one of the most influential religious movements in 20th century Islam".[10]

The movement was founded in 1927 by Muhammad Ilyas al-Kandhlawi in India in accordance to the teachings and practices that take place in The Prophet's Mosque and Ashabus Suffah Tabligh.[11][12] by sending students of the religion to learn the religion around the world. Its stated primary aim is spiritual reformation of Islam by reaching out to Muslims across social and economic spectra and working at the grassroots level, to bring them in line with the group's understanding of Islam.[3][13] The teachings of Tabligh Jamaat are expressed in "Six Principles" (Kalimah (Declaration of faith), Salah (Prayer), Ilm-o-zikr (Knowledge), Ikraam-e-Muslim (Respect of Muslim), Ikhlas-e-Niyyat (Sincerity of intention), Dawat-o-Tableegh (Proselytizaton)).[14] Tablighi Jamaat believes that Muslims are in a constant state of spiritual Jihad in the sense of fight against evil, the weapon of choice is Dawah (proselytization) and that battles are won or lost in the "hearts of men."

Tablighi Jamaat began as an offshoot of the Deobandi movement, and a response to perceived deteriorating moral values and a supposed negligence of aspects of Islam.[15] It expanded from a local to a national to an international movement.

Tablighi Jamaat denies any affiliation in politics and fiqh (jurisprudence),[16] focusing instead on the Quran and Hadith,[16][17] and states that it rejects violence as a means for evangelism,[18] (although some members have become involved in politics in Pakistan). Tablighi Jamaat has claimed to avoid electronic media and in favor of personal communication for proselytising, although prominent Tablighi personalities such as Tariq Jameel are featured on an extensive range of Internet videos and often appear on TV.

Tablighi Jamaat attracted significant public and media attention when it announced plans for the largest mosque in Europe to be built in London, United Kingdom.

Nobody needs all these stories on FACELESS social media Sir!

What we need is to see their activities in the neighborhood and how their conducts have turned out to be in the society.

That's enough to convince sincere and honesthearted observers that they've got something tangible, the rest is story for the gods! wink

(1) The TRUE Gospel is about God's Kingdom that will be established here on earth {Matthew 6:10 compared Psalms 37:9-11} you guys going to live in heaven or Hell fire


If there is no hell fire, why did Jesus mention everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels in the following verse;

Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels (Matthew 25:41)


Maximus69:



(2)The Holy Spirit is God's active force, but Arabian mentality will not allow you to think straight. When Peter declared that Jesus is the son of God, who did Jesus said spoke through Peter? Matthew 16:17
Sorry Mr Muhammadan it's God's Holy Spirit that spoke through Peter, that's why Satan also spoke immediately through the same Peter {Matthew 16:21-23} Satan was so stupid that he thought perfect Jesus {God's only begotten son} won't be able to distinguish between the utterances of God through the power of his Holy Spirit{Active force} and the utterances motivated by Satan's worldly thinking! cheesy

Matthew 16:17 says:

"Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven"

Where is the mention of Holy Spirit in this verse?Jesus said it was Father (not Holy Spirit) that revealed it to Peter.

Stylishly, you want to dodge my question .
My question is this; Can God's ACTIVE FORCE SPEAK and HEAR (John 16:12-13) ? If your answer is yes, then you have confirmed the 3rd person of Holy Trinity ( God the Holy Spirit) because an ACTIVE FORCE cannot hear and speak since it is NOT a person. Speaking and hearing is a quality of a person; NOT an active force

There are two dilemma in front you; It is either you accept the spirit of truth made mention in John 16:12-13 as God the Holy Spirit (3rd person of Holy Trinity) OR as a human being.

Another evidence that the spirit of truth made mention in John 16 is a PERSON and not an active force is revealed when Jesus was using "HE"

However, when that one* comes, the spirit of the truth,+ HE will guide you into all the truth, for HE will not speak of his own initiative, but what HE hears HE will speak, and HE will declare to you the things to come.+ (John 16:12-13 NWT).

If it was God's ACTIVE FORCE, the pronoun should be "IT" instead of "HE"

So we have two types of evidence to prove that the spirit of truth is a person;
1. The quality of hearing and speaking.
2. The pronoun "HE" which appears five times.

God's Holy Spirit speaks through people {2Peter :21} but you won't agree because your Muhammad told you it's Gabriel that spoke to him so it's not easy to resolve this!

THEORIES
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS and
BENEFITS

If you ask a lazy person to argue with a hard working man, the lazy will start bluffing like a twentieth century radio, no break next jam. An adage "empty bucket often makes the loudest noise", so you're going to keep arguing and arguing in support of what's not working out! grin



Tell your Jamaat or whatever to intensify their preaching and teaching skills so that people everywhere can SEE the benefits of your Allah in the adherents of your faith, then it will become obvious that Allah is God as he is able to organize his worshippers into a peaceful global family which everyone can SEE. Both Allah and Jehovah are invisible to the ordinary eye but with what each can make possible in the midst of his worshippers, everyone will know who is the active as in the living God! Otherwise it's all story for the gods! wink

The guy is suffering from misdirected zeal!

He wish his god is the Almighty, so instead of listening to reasonableness he is trying to fix a wrecked drowning ship.

Islam would have been the best option in the absence of Jehovah's Witnesses who have proved that RACISM and POLITICS can become like dead carcasses, and people from divers ethnicity tribes and tongues can worship together peacefully as one big family. Isaiah 2:1-4

It's just a pity that he's suffering this much, i empathize with him as he wishes to fetch worshippers for Allah but he never reason deeply to know that there is nothing like Allah if there's no particular group to present as the one and only Muslim organization that's practicing Islam in the right sense.

I know the group he is talking about but they're just like the revivalists who keeps staring former churchgoers to continue putting faith in the dead Trinity.
The group often gather in one place and after ranting for few hours they dispasses each to their homes. But one thing our friend failed to grasp is that the group in question have nothing to say to change the radical mentality of those claiming Muslims and they're not condemning the intolerance that's prevalence in the religion. So they're just exciting difficult sects of Islam to continue bowing down to Allah when adherents aren't benefiting at all from the so called worship!

Such a group if truthfully working out something tangible supposed to quench the rift between the so called Islamic nations, if truthfully Allah is at work in Islam! undecided

Good morning Sir,
The bolded is exactly what i've been trying to make him understand. It's either there's
¤ NO Peace in Islam

or

¤Allah is FAKE

or

¤Mohammad is FAKE

or

¤No Muslim nation

Those Arabians have brainwashed them to think that there are Christians nations and so they're also trying to establish Muslim nations. So Abdulgaffar keep arguing blindly that all those claiming Christians are Christians so it's appropriate to argue about the teachings!
I've told him several times that there is just one group that's practicing Christianity in the right sense and for any observer to fully grasp what Christ established and it's benefits, one should watch closely the activities of Jehovah's Witnesses, the bond between them, their ability to destroy RACISM, POLITIC, Materialism, pride, polygamy, fits of anger, juvenile delinquencies and so many other destructive elements that's devastating the human family today.

All what Abdulgaffar will say is "you must bow down to Allah inside a mosque" he didn't realize that the real sense of submission is NOT the hypocritical outward display but submission from the heart which will benefit both adherents and their none believing neighbours! undecided

2nd Peter 1:21 says;

"For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit."

As you can see, the Holy Spirit did NOT speak through the people. People were moved by the
Spirit to speak what God inspired in them.

If the Holy Spirit speak through the people, then Holy Spirit also HEAR through the people ? Oh yes ?

Honestly, you are not going straight. My argument is this; if the spirit of truth in John 16 can SPEAK and can HEAR, do you still believe that the passage was referring to your God'sACTIVE FORCE ? If yes then you have to accept that your God's ACTIVE FORCE is a PERSON because it is only a person that can speak and can hear. Then who is this very PERSON ?

There are only two options for you. It is either you believe that this person is the 3rd person of Holy Trinity (God the Holy Spirit) or you believe this person to be Angel Gabriel that spoke to Muhammad(pbuh).
But if you have a third option, bring it to light. Stop digging around the bush; let us know the identity of this very person.

See how you are now having problems with your THEORY;

1. You are unable to defend that Jesus was a master worker of creation; it was Jehovah that gave series of commands (Genesis 1:1-31) and it was the same Jehovah that performed the work of Creation (Exodus 31:17, Genesis 2:2-3, Isaiah 44:24 NWT, Isaiah 48:13)

2. You are unable to deny the existence of hell fire that Jesus made mention in Matthew 25:41

3. You are in state of dilemma regarding the Spirit of truth made mentioned by Jesus in John 16:12-13: you don't want to accept the spirit as the 3rd person of Holy Trinity and you don't want to accept the spirit as Angel Gabriel. Yet it is certain that this spirit of truth is not an active force that can neither hear nor speak.

Even, if you think your PRACTICAL APPLICATION and BENEFIT are okay, your THEORY would make you to fall because according to your logic, the THREE must be complete. Beside, the theory is the foundation. If the foundation of a building is very WEAK, then the building would soon collapse no matter how beautiful the building may look in the eyes of its beholders.



Do you ever know that there is no any religious scripture that SPECIFICALLY condemned the doctrine of Trinity except Qur'an. Now, if you believed that Muhammad was motivated by Satan to come up with Qur'an, do you think Qur'an would condemn the doctrine of Trinity and affirm the oneness of God ? This is impossible because Satan cannot oppose himself ; "And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand; his end has come(Mark 3:26)

It's you that's having problems with your Allah, Muhammad and Islam!

All you need to do now is analyse the Practical Application of your theories then you're free because it's left to those who are SEEING the Benefits of what you're presenting but refuse to act!

Theories
Practical Applications
Benefits

Any other things is just story for the gods! wink

Of course since you have your own theories just as i've got mine and the two totally differs, there's no way to reconcile both!
We will remain there arguing on the theories if we don't progress to the next step which is the Practical Applications so that everyone can see the Benefits of all the stories we're saying since! wink

It's just a pity seeing people having misdirected zeal!

The guy really feel like helping people to worship the one and only true God, but he's not completely equipped for the task!
He thought simply arguing with people over what he was taught is enough, not knowing that it will take much more than written documents to change people's minds now that there are countless contradicting documents all thought to have been inspired by God!
And to worsen the matter, there are thousands of religious title holders compilating the issue with conflicting teachings that's not applicable anywhere, and if forcefully applied, there will be nothing like heartfelt dedication since adherents aren't enjoying any benefits! . embarassed

From your statement it's evident that Holy Spirit is God since you can agree that it was Holy Spirit who spoke when Jesus talked about the Father...

The evidence from the scripture atimes The Father Himself will speak without Holy Spirit in action...which shows that the two are separate.

The last part also shows how dubious you people can be just to defend your demonic doctrines.

You said, Holy Spirit that is an active force spoke through Peter as well as SATAN who is a PERSON also spoke through Peter.

Whereas, one of the reasons your organization rejected the personhood of the Holy Spirit is the claim that a person can't speak through another person.

But here out of curiosity to continue to defend lies, you agree that a person (Satan) can actually speak through another person.

Just see how Satan is using your salvation to play ludo...

Jesus spoke in parables as in illustrations, so if you're not one of us you can't understand what our Master, Lord and King was teaching through the use of illustrations! Matthew 13:3-13

But we his true followers know that Jesus as the one who Created all things can't contradict what was written, Creatures aren't immortal so they can't live forever.
Everlasting life is the gift of God NOT for all creatures except those who proved to be God's children! Romans 6:23

So it's funny seeing all of you confused due to Jesus' illustrations instead of trying to correlate what you're reading with all the promises of God in the Hebrew/Aramaic scriptures {Old Testament}! wink

Mumuscious people concluded that since Jesus mentioned fire, then God must create another place for evildoers to exist forever! cheesy

Jesus spoke in parables as in illustrations, so if you're not one of us you can't understand what our Master, Lord and King was teaching through the use of illustrations! Matthew 13:3-13

But we his true followers know that Jesus as the one who Created all things can't contradict what was written, Creatures aren't immortal so they can't live forever.
Everlasting life is the gift of God NOT for all creatures except those who proved to be God's children! Romans 6:23

So it's funny seeing all of you confused due to Jesus' illustrations instead of trying to correlate what you're reading with all the promises of God in the Hebrew/Aramaic scriptures {Old Testament}! wink

Mumuscious people concluded that since Jesus mentioned fire, then God must create another place for evildoers to exist forever! cheesy



I have taken my time to read the whole Matthew 25:1-46. See below;


25:1 "At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
25:2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise.
25:3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them.
25:4 The wise, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps.
25:5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
25:6 "At midnight the cry rang out: 'Here's the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!'
25:7 "Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.
25:8 The foolish ones said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.'
25:9 "'No,' they replied, 'there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.'
25:10 "But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.
25:11 "Later the others also came. 'Sir! Sir!' they said. 'Open the door for us!'
25:12 "But he replied, 'I tell you the truth, I don't know you.'
25:13 "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
25:14 "Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them.
25:15 To one he gave five talents of money, to another two talents, and to another one talent, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey.
25:16 The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more.
25:17 So also, the one with the two talents gained two more.
25:18 But the man who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master's money.
25:19 "After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them.
25:20 The man who had received the five talents brought the other five. 'Master,' he said, 'you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.'
25:21 "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'
25:22 "The man with the two talents also came. 'Master,' he said, 'you entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more.'
25:23 "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'
25:24 "Then the man who had received the one talent came. 'Master,' he said, 'I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed.
25:25 So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.'
25:26 "His master replied, 'You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed?
25:27 Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest.
25:28 "'Take the talent from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents.
25:29 For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.
25:30 And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
25:31 "When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory.
25:32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
25:33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
25:34 "Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world.
25:35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,
25:36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'
25:37 "Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?
25:38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you?
25:39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'
25:40 "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
25:41 "Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
25:42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink,
25:43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.'
25:44 "They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?'
25:45 "He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'
25:46 "Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."


You can see that the first parable is Matthew 25:1-12 while the second parable is Matthew 25:14-30.

So Matthew 25:41 which mention ETERNAL FIRE is not included in the parable.

Again look at the last verse Matthew 25:46 . You will notice that there is CORRESPONDENCE between this verse and Matthew 25:41 quoted above. So that passage really mention an ETERNAL FIRE. It is not a parable. Read it again by yourself

You're wrong!

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that all what we're preaching and teaching people today is as a result of God's Holy Spirit speaking through adherents.
Though most people like you may like to argue this because JWs aren't spirits rather we're human with flesh and blood so there's no fleshly desires that can't be found if you're observing our members.

But Only Jehovah's Witnesses have successfully eradicate Politics and Racism in our midst!

Well Jesus said that's the sign that God's Holy Spirit is at work in our midst! John 13:34-35, 17:20-23, James 2:18-26

If you argue from today till tomorrow, Isaiah said only God's Holy Spirit can make that possible! Isaiah 2:1-4 smiley

So if you don't believe that the Holy Spirit is the one speaking through us, well sincere and honesthearted observers will testify to the WORKS of the Spirit that's commanding us so that we are able to do what no other group can do!

I made it clear that one of the reasons your organization denied the PERSONHOOD of the Holy Spirit is that, they claimed since Holy Spirit said to be SPEAKING THROUGH another person then He can't be a personal. One PERSON can't speak through another Person.

See how you're just disgracing yourself on a very simple plain statement.

So now that you said Devil (a person) spoke through Peter, isn't it evident that Holy Spirit is also a person speaking through people from ages?

Or you can retract your stand about Devil speaking through someone?

Please calm down Mr Emusan.

We're not fighting here, neither are we trying to argue here for a winner to emerge. What we're trying to do is setting matters straight so that everyone can learn something of benefit! 2Timothy 3:16-17

God is a Spirit {Matthew 4:24} but he has a place where he is sitting on a throne {1Kings 8:43} whatever he wants to accomplish with any of his visible creatures he sends out his active force to make such creatures do things that's beyond their natural gift. 1kings 18:46

Angels are spirits themselves, they can't do what God does with other creatures but they can overthrown the creatures personality, hypnotising such creatures and acting in their stead. Genesis 3:1-5 compared to Luke 4:34

That's what we're saying Sir!

So while God's holy spirit {active force} energizes creatures to do things totally different from their nature {Numbers 22:28} angels as spirits can enter into a person and start dragging such a person to say or do things that ordinarily he/she won't have done under normal circumstances! Act 18:16-18

Thanks Sir, may God bless you!

You argument would have been meaningful, if Jesus have said ; I pray also for THOSE WHO WILL BELIEVE IN ME AND WORK FOR ME through their message (John 17:20) that ALL OF THEM MAY BE ONE (John 17:21).

But Jesus did NOT include "AND WORK FOR ME".

He simply and only said "WHO WILL BELIEVE IN ME through their message"

Since all Christian world believe in Jesus through the message of the Gospel delivered by the apostles, then according to this passage, ALL CHRISTIAN WORLD MUST BE ONE without any division whatsoever.

Therefore, the FAILURE of this very Jesus' prayer to be answered is a very strong evidence that Jesus NEVER utter such words because the fervent prayer of a righteous man AVAILS MUCH (James 5:16) let alone the prayer made by Jesus, one of the most dearest to God.

This is exactly what we expect because Jesus himself has already declared ; I WAS SENT ONLY TO THE LOST SHEEP OF ISRAEL(Matthew 15:24). So he could not have been the same person that would be again sent to the entire Christian world talk less of praying for their complete unity.

Do i truthfully BELIEVE in Muhammad? cheesy



Of course, there are also many weak Muslims who do not use to observe their prayer on regular basis and very negligent in following the teachings of the prophet. But yet we cannot say they do not believe in Muhammad (pbuh). We can only say they do not truthfully believe in him.

But Jesus did not say; THOSE WHO WILL TRUTHFULLY BELIEVE IN ME through their message.

He simply said THOSE WHO WILL BELIEVE IN ME.

Furthermore, that Jesus'prayer in John 17:20-23 has been in existence BEFORE the existence of the Christian world. Therefore, if Jesus truly utter this prayer, then God must have accepted it. Hence, we will not even see any Christian that would not truthfully believe in Jesus. In fact, God Almighty would have prevented the doctrine of Trinity from being established in the first instance. But this is not so.
This simply show that Jesus never prayed for the complete unity of the Christian world. This is because he was never sent to the world. By his own admission; I was sent ONLY to the lost sheep of Israel (Matthew 15:24). If Jesus already knew that he would later be sent to the entire world, he would not have said this statement in Matthew 15:24. He would have simply told that Canaanite woman; "it is not yet time for the Gentiles" instead of saying he was sent only to the Israelites (Matthew 15:22-24)
