I have never seen tableeghis preach anything wrong or controversial, their emphasis is on making urself a better muslim and human. I dont see anything wrong in it.
1. The security threat by the TJ : Russia and the Muslim-majority Central Asian countries have rightly banned the TJ because the members have indulged in or planned extreme criminal acts like bombings and gun attacks. The TJ leaders claim that the movement is apolitical but the movement serves as a networking arrangement for the members to later either form criminal groups or join existing such groups. I quote from the Wikipedia page for "Tablighi Jamaat" :
The U.S. Government has closely monitored Tablighi Jamaat since September 2001. According to US officials, though the Tablighis do not have a direct link with terrorism, the teachings and beliefs of Tablighi Jamat have been a cornerstone for joining in radical Muslim groups. Rizwan Farook, one of the perpetrators of the 2015 San Bernardino attack, was a student of the teachings of Tablighi Jamaat
According to Pakistani security analysts and Indian investigators, the founders of terrorist group Harkat-ul-Mujahideen were members of the Tablighi Jamaat.
In February 2020, a counter-terrorism operation in Russia led to the arrest of seven Tablighis and dismantled the terrorist cell affiliated to the Tablighi Jamaat. According to Russian intelligence, the terrorist cell was involved in dissemination of materials and radicalization. The Tablighi Jamaat has been banned in Russia since 2009. The Supreme Court of Russia also recommended the Tablighi Jamaat to be included into the list of terrorist groups monitored by the Kremlin.
Tablighi members who have been charged with terrorism include: Zacarias Moussaoui (charged in the United States in the 11 September attacks), Hervé Djamel Loiseau (French citizen found in Afghanistan), and Djamel Beghal (Algerian-born French citizen and Al Qaeda member who was convicted of plotting to blow up the U.S. Embassy in Paris), Syed Rizwan Farook. In a foiled January 2008 bombing plot in Barcelona, Spain, "some media reports" stated that a Muslim leader in the city stated that the fourteen suspects arrested by police in a series of raids (where bomb-making materials were seized) were members of the Tablighi Jamaat.Other terrorist plots and attacks on civilians that members of Tablighi Jamaat have been connected with include the Portland Seven, the Lackawanna Six, the 2006 transatlantic aircraft plot, the 7/7 London bombings, the 2007 London car bombs, and 2007 Glasgow International Airport attack.
Ignore the word "Islamist" in the above text and concentrate on who the TJ breeds. And I am sure many or most of the "Syrian rebels" who really are not Syria at all and come from all over the world have come up through the TJ. Same for the international criminals who invaded Libya in 2011.According to Alex Alexiev, "perhaps 80% percent of the Islamist extremists have come from Tablighi ranks, prompting French intelligence officers to call Tablighi Jamaat the 'antechamber of fundamentalism."
2. The social threat by the TJ : In India the social culture among Muslims in the last 20 years has changed for the worse. Brainwashing by the TJ has resulted in many Muslim women ( so-called college educated ) adopting the full burqa, adopting an arrogant attitude and basically isolating themselves from the larger society. Not associating with the oppressed groups in the country including women. Lot of self-isolation. They might as well be living on an island. So many Afghan women don't want to wear the burqa and some make it a point not to wear it but sadly so many Indian Muslim women wear it voluntarily without understanding that the burqa has no Islamic basis. It is a pre-Islamic Jewish garment ( Read this article, a finding by a Muslims woman scholar and parliamentarian ). Some of the voluntary burqa-wearer women are the "My hijab [ burqa ] is not my compulsion, it is my pride" types. These particular women and the TJ have created a suffocating and oppressive atmosphere for those Indian Muslim women who don't want to wear the burqa, who want to be free. Again, about those voluntary burqa weares what then is the point of their education when they chose to isolate themselves from society and not contribute to it ? And those Indian Muslim women About many Indian Muslim men, especially in the cities, the TJ has brainwashed them to don a "pious" look - kurta-pyjama, beard ( sometimes long ) and white cap. They all have a uniform look. And they all eat biryani regularly and have become dullards. All in all these TJ-affected men and women have become parasites and should be brought back to normality.
3. The political threat by the TJ : In India the TJ has just created suffocating and oppressive ghetto life for Muslims and not worked with progressive groups and individuals in the country and has just given ground to the Hindutvadis who have grown in influence especially in the last few years. All that the TJ was interested is going around to Muslim peoples' houses and getting them for prayers by irritating the people to the extreme, pushing women into burqas and the men into the get up I described earlier. And while the TJ was busy doing this the Hindutvadis grew in power so the TJ has to take a large part of the blame for this.
4. The intellectual effect of the TJ : The TJ has made its followers to become intellectually inferior. I don't expect an Elon Musk to arise from among the Tablighis at their international headquarters in Delhi. There was that incident in Pakistan in 2019 where some Tablighis were on a running train and these idiots began cooking breakfast in the bogies and that sparked a fire in large sections of the train and 74 people were burnt or suffocated to death.
@Imran Khan
Good luck to her
It's HER choice, no one else needs to get their panties in a twist
Islam is all about forgiveness,, people can point out someone's failures or actions but at the end of the day if they have made a sincere attempt at redemption and change and asked for forgiveness from God, then who are we to judge or point fingers
That's the whole point of faith in islam
There is always a way back
Very philosophical............... Not.
I m not a fan of tableeghi jamaat either nobody forced her to make this decision. its her choice and u all should respect her choice.
Outwardly it may seem her choice but in reality some TJ members would have brainwashed her, shamed her and forced her into making this "choice".
But What they are preaching is not enough in this modern era.they should also preach discipline and unity which is need of hour for our society.
What do you mean by unity ? Will the TJ stop fighting Syrian government forces and instead join the Syrians, the Russians, the Palestinians and Iran-sent forces in defeating the NATO plot against Syria and present a symbol of unity for Muslims ?
Its her choice but like Hamza Ali Abbasi , she is needed most in this Haram industry. So that she can teach and help who are most vulnerable in the industry.
Goenitz bhai, I am disappointed by some of your recent posts. Have you changed ?
Are you annoyed, Mr Terrorist Commie?
Not hurt but concerned for her and other Pakistani women especially in film and serials industry. She may be used as a tool to create an atmosphere of shame and wrong-doing and brainwash other former colleagues of hers to also leave that "haraam" industry ( as @Zarvan called it ). A self-Talibanization.
