SHUDDI TAHREEK

Approximately, 80 /90 years ago there was a movement in India known as the Shuddi Tahreek. Their objective was to convert Muslims into Hindus. This was similar to the work carried out by the Ngo’s where people are converted to Christianity. Many Mewaati people accepted Hinduism as their faith. The Ulema became concerned of this movement, and this is indeed a great quality of our Ulema. Their sleep is lost due to such occurrences.

What was the reaction of Hadrat Maulana Ilyaas r? They weren’t concerned about their familie’s comfort but they were worried of the Imaan of the Ummat. Many Ulema met but no success. A person by the name of Master Saheb said, “Leave this job to me.” He went to all those that became Murtaddien and asked, “Have you people become Hindus?” They had all responded in the positive. He said, “When you were born your parents had taken you for circumcision. Now you cannot become a Hindu until the piece of skin that was removed is once again joined.” This made sense to them, so speak to the people according to their level. In the annals of history, ordinary people had also done great work. Allah chooses whomsoever He wishes for the protection of His Deen.

Our gathering here is to strengthen us and make us realise our Aqaaid. Many Ulema are seated here. We do not meet with the people that you meet with at the shops and factories. Perhaps some of them have a wrong belief. Very rarely, these people with the wrong belief are brought to some Alim. Therefore you people should take this message, fortify yourselves, and at the same time take this message to such people and the masses
