Women in the Jamaat System

 

[Note: This is the third and final installment of the 3-Part Friday Sermon of 06 August 2021~26 Dhul-Hijjah 1442 AH delivered by Imam-Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam Hazrat Khalifatullah Munir A. Azim (aba) of Mauritius on the institutional rules and general regulations applicable to office-bearers in the Jamaat System. 

In this section of the Sermon, Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) unveils his vision and expectations concerning Siraj Makin Djawharat-ul-Kamal- the women's wing of the Jamaat; recognizing the extraordinary space women occupy, and the vital, complementary role they can play in the reformation of fellow women as well as in the construction,  nurturing and fostering of larger society through their critical role on the proper upbringing of children in family and community. Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) exhorts women to organize priorities in every day lives so as to reflect the commitment to equip themselves with the knowledge and skills necessary for effective participation in, and performance of varied responsibilities, including in the training of children, and within the fellowship of women like them in the Jamaat. Hazrat Saheb (aba) exhorts us to grow in spirit and become role models and change-makers in personal, family and Jamaat settings so as to bring about much-needed spiritual transformation in society, Insha Allah, Aameen].

The Jamaat System- I

 

In his Friday Sermon of 06 August 2021~26 Dhul-Hijjah 1442 AH Imam- Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam International Hazrat Khalifatullah Al Mahdi Munir A. Azim (aba) of Mauritius unveiled the administrative structure and electoral processes of the expanding Divine mission- for the benefit and guidance of all its members living in different countries, Alhamdulillah, Summa Alhamdulillah. Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) spoke comprehensively about the rules and regulations applicable to various office bearers of the Jamaat: from branches in village communities down to the officers in the Central Committee (Majlis-e- Amila): everyone is responsible for own duties, and accountable to Allah (swt) and His Khalifatullah (aba) of the era.

Keeping in mind the needs of functional efficiency and systemic flow, the instructions and guidance of Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) and related works in the Jamaat are to be coordinated, implemented and reported by the officials concerned at various levels- for both men and women. In this discourse, Hazrat Saheb (aba) underscores the significance of foundational Islamic values in the working of the Jamaat system: personal responsibility and commitment; transparency in decision-making; fostering of diversity or the spirit of inclusion and solidarity across classes and families; cultivating mutual respect, empathy and understanding among members, etc. In prescribing procedural safeguards to encourage wider participation in Jamaat system and insisting on Taqwah among officials, Hazrat Khalifatullah (aba) lays a solid foundation for an alternative universality- keeping in view the Divine-mandate to strive for a just order in all our circles.
