[Dhaka Tribune] Bangladesh Jamaatul Ulama Chairman and imam of Bangladesh’s largest Eid congregation in Sholakia, Kishoreganj Sheikhul Hadis Farid Uddin Masuud has expressed deep concern about the ongoing internal crisis in Tabligh Jamaat.If the situation is not resolved soon, it will cause irrevocable damage to the Ummah, he said in a statement issued on Sunday.
"Everyone needs to come forward to solve the crisis and maintain unity among Tabligh Jamaat. It is necessary for the Ulama-e-Kiram to sustain a good relationship between themselves," Farid Uddin said.
"Everyone will need to maintain peace and order to keep the works of Tabligh active."
Urging all to solve the crises sensibly, the imam further said: "General people and the Ulama-e-Kiram have always helped each other. They cannot be competitors to each other. It is to be noted that the fatwa declared by Darul Uloom Deoband does not permit anyone to create chaos.
"In this case, we should limit our activities according to the statements made by Darul Uloom Deoband. Maintaining a strict position will not bring good results for anyone; rather, it will impede the works of Tabligh and Islam."
