Tablighi Jamaat and COVID 19 | Beyond Religion

Is religion above all? The stories spread about tablighi Jamaat depict the same. You must have heard it, seen it on WhatsApp.

The world is fighting a virus, millions are in hospitals, thousands are on streets, but how does it matter? Religion comes first,no?


"If you hear of a plague in a land,then don't go into it. If it happens in a land where you are, then don't go out of it". This is an actual excerpt from Hadith. But people are misinterpreting it.

This blog is not against a religion, it's against stupidity. Tablighi Jamaat is almost a 100 years old missionary movement that started in India. Between 1st to 15th March,they organized several gatherings in Nizamuddin area of New Delhi. These gatherings were attended by 1000's of people(around 9000) from India and abroad including UK, Indonesia, Malaysia, US and China.
17 states have COVID cases linked to this event, 1/3 rd of all cases is linked to this event. Delhi Markaz has become the biggest hotspot in the country.


This brings a lot of questions. There were links to 20% cases in Malaysia and people knew it before the gathering was organized. Who gave the permission?
When they came to know about the crisis, why didn't they seek any help?
Mr. Ajit Doval, National Security Advisor of India had to go to Markaz at 2 AM to convince the Maulana to convince the people of markaz to be tested. Why?
Why are they hiding their travel information and why are the local people encouraging these people to hide at mosques?
And a lot more questions...

We will talk on what solutions can be brought in action to tackle the situation in upcoming blog.

I feel bad because stones are pelted upon doctors in Indore.The biggest problem is "in all this drama-Religion, faith and the whole concept of Islam is suffering". This blog is for the very few sensible people who will tell the Muslims around that nobody is targeting you, we are treating you. The general public needs to act more responsibly like a giant family.


See beyond Religion. See what is necessary.

Do let me know what do you think of all this situation in comment box. See you soon. Till then stay home, stay safe.

    1. This is true in this very situation.But there are multiple other incidents also where people have shown stupidity by gathering at various locations, making the situation worse. What's important is we should handle this pandemic together.

  2. Jammat has been just a second half of the Virus .
    Shouldn't the Preachers be called synonym of Corona at this time .
    It was really insane for them to preach their Islamic Purification lessons at this time of crisis .None of the Religion tells us to be involved in any activity that would harm mankind .
    I mean , why the hell are they doing it now ?

  4. Due to this Jamat issue the Hindu Muslim propaganda has reached even new heights. Now those 2 poor sadhus were killed and it is not seeming to slow down anytime soon.

  5. Nearly 30% coronavirus cases across India linked to Nizamuddin Markaz. This is really bad and because of this only (Tablikhi Jamat) india is suffering from that many cases .

  6. All that was written was absolutely justified by you ... No one is against Islam or muslims or neither anyone is against Jamatis...everyone just want people to br responsible so that we can help n control the situation...if anyone has seen a debate by Rubika Ilyakat on ABP on this....she also said the same thing even after being a Muslim herself.

Anubhav Dubey | Chai Sutta Bar

Started with a minimal capital of 3 lakhs, Chai Sutta Bar  (CSB as we say) has a turnover of more than 100 crores. It has 400 franchise outlets spread across India and abroad including Dubai, Muscat and Nepal. Welcome to ShekharArena! Today we will let you know about Chai Sutta Bar and elements of business that have helped them achieve this feat. Till today, Chai Sutta Bar is a bootstrapped business. Bootstrapped means they haven't taken any loans or external investments to fund their business. Product Range: Initially they kept adding new products to the inventory and made it to 200 products. This is a common mistake that most early age investors do. Menu design should focus on how we can maximize no of products with less raw materials, less resources and same SOP with little modifications. They learnt it the hard way and now they serve only 21 products. Initial Team: The initial team structure should align with your vision. Not only the team should give 200% efforts plus can prov...

Bihar and the Education System | Bihar mein bahar h

He was completely demoralized, analysing where did he go wrong. Was his preparation not apt enough to crack the interview? Didn't he had the technical knowledge, the profile required- all this was whirling in his head, while he sat in disguise with a cup of tea. Welcome back to Shekhar Arena!  Hope you are doing fine. Today, I will tell you a story- a story of our friends, students and the teachers! There is this friend of mine who was attending an Off-Campus placement drive of a reputed MNC. He did his graduation in computer applications from a renowned institute of Bihar. 6 out of 49 students cleared the aptitude test. There he met another guy about whom he said later that guy was technically sound than him. This guy did his graduation from same renowned institute, located in another city of our state. The technical round was a WhatsApp video interview and the interviewer asked scenario based questions. He was dumbstruck, didn't understand the questions well-answers of...

Adheen-The Dependent | Not a Movie Review

"Ice, that is brittle can be shattered, while water flows and adapts" . This means 'टूटता कठोर है ,कोमल नहीं'. Have you ever thought why most of our parents want us to guide throughout our childhood and teenage till the time we stand on our feet? Think about this and let  me know in comments. Vacations and Parents I think dependency is a relative term, you may be dependent on someone in one context, independent in other. To all the people living away from their homes, please respond on these two questions? 1. When was the last time you visited your home? Here, home means the place where your parents live. 2. If you visited in last 6 months, did you sit still with them and talked about how life is going, what problems are they facing, are there any health issues or anything else without peeping in your phone? You think they are fine, but wait they are not. Adheen, a short film directed by Yash Verma talks about these intricacies. Rajendra(Sanjay Mishra) fre...
