A House Divided
 [DAWN] In a world where belief and militancy are becoming fused, there are peaceful yet puritanical forms of religion that still capture peoples’ imagination. One such form is advanced by the Tablighi JamaatA group of itinerant Deobandi preachers who form one of al-Qaeda's recruiting arms... (TJ), a worldwide Islamic missionary movement popularising the concept of inner reform among believers. What makes TJ fascinating and relevant is its complete divorce from the politics of militancy. Instead, TJ focuses on being unassuming and austere. Instead of training guns at others, da’wah [invitation to the righteous path] encourages Moslems to train their thoughts on inner reform and spiritual cleansing. Posted by: Fred 2018-02-28 |
