Report on Tablighi Jamaat: Intent to Islamize the Environment Britain is at war. Britain, Western Europe, the United States, and many other non-Muslim countries are under relentless Islamic attack. Introduction Tablighi Jamaat ("Society for Spreading Faith") is a global Islamic missionary movement founded in India in the 1920s. With millions of followers in over 150 countries, the movement seeks to spread Islam, as defined by the Quran and the Sunnah of Muhammad, with the aim of Islamizing the environment, transforming the demographic and cultural fabric of communities at the expense of social integration and interfaith harmony. History and Establishment The movement was founded in 1926 by Muhammad Ilyas Kandhlawi in British India and spread to Pakistan, Bangladesh, Europe, Africa, and America. Beliefs and Principles Tablighi Jamaat is based on Islam as defined by the Quran and the Sunnah of Muhammad. It considers dawah (invitation to Islam) a central obligation, aiming to spread the faith in every community. Its six principles, Kalima (declaration of faith), Salah (prayer), Ilm-wa-Dhikr (knowledge and remembrance of Allah), Ikram-e-Muslim (respect for Muslims), Ikhlas-e-Niyyat (sincerity of intention), and Dawah-wa-Tabligh (propagation), are designed to return Muslims to the path of the Quran and Sunnah and expand religious influence over the environment. Activities and Practices The movement organizes preaching missions (khuruj), lasting from two days to four months, where men travel, stay in mosques, and invite Muslims to prayers and sermons on the six principles, aiming to increase religious commitment and spread Islam as defined by the Quran and Sunnah. Activities like gasht (neighborhood visits) and traditional attire (robes above the ankle, long beards) are used to instill an Islamic lifestyle. Annual gatherings (ijtema) attract millions, such as in Bangladesh (over 2 million) and Pakistan (around 1.5 million), serving as a tool for mass dissemination of the ideology. The movement uses books like Fazail-e-Amaal to promote its message, emphasizing deep religious assimilation. Organizational Structure The movement’s structure is loose, with no formal membership lists, but it includes centers (Markaz) in over 200 countries coordinating activities of volunteer groups (jamaat) of 10-12 people. The leadership, headed by an amir (currently Muhammad Saad Kandhlawi in India), is elected for life by a consultative council (shura). Since 2016, the movement has split into two factions due to internal disputes, one in India and one in Pakistan and Bangladesh, leading to violent clashes and indicating an ambition to dominate religious influence. Global Presence and Influence The movement has between 12 and 80 million followers, with a strong presence in South Asia, Europe (600 mosques in the UK), America (approximately 50,000 in the US), Africa, and Central Asia. Its activities in Europe, particularly among immigrant communities, aim to instill an Islamic lifestyle based on the Quran and Sunnah, focusing on South Asian communities and rejecting local identities. The movement uses platforms like YouTube to spread its message, aiming to reach wider audiences and expand its religious influence. In Savile Town, Dewsbury, UK, it contributes to an almost entirely insular Muslim community. Jihad Activities (Terrorism) and Banning The movement has been linked to jihad activities (terrorism) due to members like shoe bomber Richard Reid and John Walker Lindh, who operated in a Deobandi background similar to the Taliban. It has been banned in countries like Uzbekistan and Tajikistan due to its religious puritanism, perceived as a threat to national identities. Recent Developments In recent years, the movement continues to spread its ideology while facing stricter regulations. The internal split since 2016 continues to weaken it, but it persists in seeking to expand its religious influence on communities worldwide, promoting the Islamization of the environment based on the Quran and Sunnah.
