By the grace of Almighty Allah and the blessings of Holy Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him) the Minhaj-ul-Qura’n Women League organized its five day training camp for Tanzimaat to train them on both spiritual and moral bases to enhance their output in the field.

On the first day of this camp 107 sisters from all over Pakistan joined this camp. The proceedings started with recitation of verses from the Holy Qura’n followed by a beautiful Nasheed and Durood-o-Salam.

Sister Sajida Sadiq (Naib Nazima Minhaj-ul-Qura’n Women League) gave introductory briefing. She extended to the sisters warm welcome and explained to them in detail the aims and purposes of the camp.

Sister Sabah Fatima Mash’hadi, President Minhaj-ul-Qura’n Women League, delivered a magnificent talk on the topic “Reasons of decline of Muslim Ummah”. She in detail pointed out the social evils that have plagued the Muslim Umma these days. She said that for last 2 centuries Muslim Umma has been facing decline in every field of life. The only reason behind all this is that Muslims have forgotten the teachings of Islam. They are not following the Golden principals of the Qura’n. She said that Islam is the most modern religion of this world. If we want to lead the world once again we have to adopt the way of Qura’n & Sunnah. Minhaj-ul-Qura’n Women League is working to rebuild the broken relation of Ummah with the Qura’n under the most enlightened leadership of Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri..

Sister Sumaira Rafaqat, Central Nazima Women League, delivered a beautiful lecture on responsibilities of workers that was highly appreciated by the audience. Highlighting Women Leagues performance and efforts made by Tanzimaat she said that only by spreading a vast network of Halqa-e-Durood and Halqa-e-Irfan-ul-Qura’n we can achieve our coveted goal. Our purpose is not merely holding Mahafil-e-Milaad or conducting workshops and seminars for their own sake; rather, we need to build a strong relation with Mujadad-e-Asar. We need to join the “Jama'at” and then to follow the “Ameer”. Minhaj-ul-Qura’n is the most dynamic movement of this century and Shaykh-ul-Islam’s personality is unmatchable.

Dr Tahir Hameed Tanoli said that relation of a worker with his leader is a categorical imperative for a dynamic movement like MQI. He gave the example of a train and said that only those compartments meet there destiny that are joined to the engine. If a compartment is untied, it will stay there on the track. The engine will reach the destiny anyway. He said that we need to make an unbreakable relation with the Quaid-e-Tehreek and we should have a strong faith in his teachings. Moreover, our today should be better than our yesterday. We need to keep our way towards betterment. An individual’s change is the first step towards the change in the society.

Sahibzada Hussain Mohi-ud-Din Qadri, the beloved son of Shaykh-ul-Islam Prof. Dr. Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, delivered his most valuable talk on “Muhammad-ur-Rasool-ul-Allah (blessings and peace be upon him)” and his speech had a magical effect on the audience. He beautifully explained the reason why Almighty Allah bestowed “Nabuwwat” (prophethood) at the age of 40 upon our Holy Prophet. He said that there is a huge difference in Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him) and Rasool-Allah (blessings and peace be upon him). Muhammad (S.A.W) is a “Zaat” (personality) and Rasool-Allah (S.A.W.) is a “Mansab” (post). He said the personality is to be loved and post is to be obeyed. Almighty Allah gave 40 years to Sahaba (R.A.) to love Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace be upon him). The reason behind it was that when one loves someone it becomes easy to obey him. He said that love of Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) is the pillar of Imaan. If one loves Muhammad (S.A.W.) he will automatically obey Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.) He said that in the same way, the love of Ameer is also very much important. When you select someone as your leader you should follow him and have faith in him.

2nd Day

Date: 28th July 2009
Venue: Conference Hall
Attendants: 112
Lecturers: Qamar Javaid, Shaykh Abdul Aziz Dabbagh, Sajid Mahmood Bhatti

The second day of Tanzimaat camp was a great motivation as well. It started formally with the recitation of the Holy Quran and a Nasheed.

Mr Qamar Javaid Malik delivered his talk on “Qualities of a leader”. He said that along with all the other leadership qualities a religious leader should have complete command over the knowledge of Deen as well as modern sciences and should be able to satisfy all the questions an audience can ask. He said that we are very lucky we are blessed with the most dynamic leadership of Shaykh-ul-Islam who is indeed the most outstanding personality of our age. All what we have to do is simply to follow his teachings and by so doing we will be successful here and in the Hereafter as well.

Shaykh Abdul Aziz Dabbagh, Naib Nazim-e-Aala (Research) MQI delivered a motivating talk on how to project our Mission and generate funds. He laid great emphasis on becoming the mission incarnate. Until and unless our hearts and souls are not filled with the love for Allah, His Beloved Messenger and the Holy Quran and attract the people surrounding us through our character and conduct we cannot truly project the mission MQI has embarked on. Nor can we generate funds for the mission by mere asking for funds from the people. We have to make up our personalities and project our mission through behaviour so effective as to earn most productive social relations with the affluent people in the society we live in. Once we attain to this station of piety and social liking we can make most successful ventures in inspiring the affluent to make handsome monetary contributions to the MQI. This will also help attract ever greater number of people to join us in the sacred struggle we are making for peace, harmony and prosperity in the society. With the growth in membership we can muster more and more financial assistance for the mission.

Sajid Mahmood Bhatti gave delivered his talk on Importance of working with teams. He mentioned that there are blessings of Almighty Allah being showered on our Jama’at. He said that when people work as teams they work in a disciplined way and the efforts they put in are multiplied manifolds. Moreover team work provides an atmosphere of competition. Minhaj-ul-Qura’n has the world’s largest network of Tanzimaat and over 103 Tanzimaat are working in different countries to spread the true knowledge of Quran and Islam. And we need to develop all the qualities of a good worker to be a responsible member of Minhaj-ul-Quran.

She said that Nazima Tarbiyat had to train all the team members on both spiritual and moral bases. She said that monthly Zaad-e-Safar report was the best self assessment form.

She emphasized that listening to Huzoor Shaykh-ul-Islam's lectures is a categorical imperative to lead a life righteousness and piety. Concluding her talk she said our hearts were like soil where both good and evil can be planted by our will. It is up to us what we grow.

Shaykh Abdul Aziz Dabbagh Naib Nazim-e-Ala (Research) explained Dawat and its targets and purposes. He said one should start the process of Dawat from one's own “Nafs” He Said that Nafs-e-Amara is the ill-commanding self and urges to commit evil and wrong things. We therefore need to train ourselves in such a way that the worldly desires are overcome and spiritual pursuits dominate. He said that according to the Quranic teachings neither our wealth nor our children will come to our help on the Day of Rising; it is only the purified and sound that will bring us benefit. Explaining Dawat he then elaborated its seven targets ioncluding affiliation with Allah Almighty, linking up with the Holy Prophet, turning towards the holy Quran, call for seeking knowledge, call for brotherhood and fraternity, call for collective struggle and call for consolidation.

She focused on the two mega events of MQI: I’tikaaf and Milaad. She said that we had a huge number of people in these two events. All what is required is to keep in touch with them and keep inviting them to various programs and events to build a relationship with them. Doing so will bring us numerical strength and help us making a breakthrough for a change in the society.

Sister Fatima Mash’hadi said in her lecture that this world is like a market where we have to buy goods and we will be rewarded against these purchases in the Hereafter. She said that it was stated in the Holy Quran that when you make a promise, keep it. And we have made a number of promises with our Quaid in workers convention, in I’tikaaf, Shab Badari and number of other events. We have to keep our promises because this is the only way toward success.

Shaykh Abdul Aziz Dabbagh spoke on the “Role of students in movements” He said students have always been playing a vital role in making movements successful.

Sister Sumaira Rafaqat Advocate, Central Nazima Women League gave a motivating talk on the significance of joining the Minhaj-ul-Qura’n Women League & how to invite people to join us? She said that it is a matter of honor to be a member of an organization that is struggling hard to achieve the goal set by Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri. On talking about the benefits of membership she said that membership form is not merely a piece of paper; rather, it is a commitment. Membership gives a sense of commitment and responsibility. It is our world wide identity. She said that MWL need to bring more people in channel. While talking about extending the network she said that we should focus on influential people as it will help us delivering our message to more people in a short time.
