Tabligh Guide — Page v
FOREWORD The Author Naseem A ḥ mad Bajwa, has used his wisdom and experience, both as missionary and as a former Tablīgh Secretary UK, to collate the required data for the compilation of this book, and in so doing he has produced, by the Grace of Allāh and Mercy of God, a concise, comprehensive and potent exposition on the subject relating to Tablīgh (preaching) Guide. He has provided every potential Da‘ī Ilallāh (caller to Allāh) with some of the basic tools required to ply their trade. This compendium has been designed to assist every Da‘ī Ilallāh no matter where they are in the world and no matter t o whom they are preaching. If these guidelines are adopted as the foundations to preaching, then with prayer, patience and steadfastness, success will surely be accomplished. As A ḥmadī Muslim s, we believe in the truth of the Promised Messiah, and, as a consequence, believe that A ḥmadiyyat, In Sha’ Allāh, will soon prevail throughout the world, in this new millennium. We are witnessing millions of men, women and children entering the Ark of the Promised Messiah. There are billions of people who have yet to be awakened. They lie spiritually dormant awaiting their own personal Da‘ī Ilallāh. I was called to Aḥ madiyyat over 14 years ago but I wish I could have been ‘awakened’ much sooner. Every A ḥmadī Muslim is a missionary and every Aḥmadī should avail themselves of this book as it will prove to be a tremendous tool for the propagation of A ḥmadiyyat, the true Islām. We all have the potential to be successful Caller unto Allāh as we should not waste the golden opportunities that lie ahead of those who strive to achieve success and so win the uncountable blessings of Allāh, the Almighty. There are so many people awaiting your call, dear reader, don’t make them wait too long. Bilal Atkinson Regional Amīr, North east England October 2004
