The 10th of Rabiul Akhar was a day long awaited by the children of Madrasa Mohammediyah as they lined up at Noor Hall, Sharjah for a display of talent, creativity and a sense of sanity. The enactments on Salaat, Lisan al-Dawat and Deeni She’ar were to be presented on a beautifully decorated and well lit stage made of glass. The lightening was carefully planned and designed to give the Glass made stage a unique look. The backdrop depicted the three themes of the dramatic performance that was to be presented by the little talents, and also highlighted the central theme of this year’s Ayyam al-Taabudaat, “Muhakaat al-Aaabaa wal Ummohaat”.
Mumineen and Muminaat attended the program in two shifts and each of them returned with an applaud of finding understanding and thought on the above topics.
Days of planning and preparation had been reduced to ink under the supervision of Janab Amil Saheb Qusai Bs Jamaluddin and Behen Saheba, both of whom had keenly gone through minute details.
The stage program elaborated and highlighted the real life events that Mumineen face and the so thought or self imposed obstacles that come in the way of the letting us obtain the khushi of Aqa Maula (TUS).
The first enactment on Salaat shed light on the day to day life events of business persons, housewives and children, who are keen on performing namaaz which is a part of their daily life. It also showed how a Mumin help his fellow brother by guiding him and helping him in performing namaaz regularly. Salat is the way to a happy and peaceful life, the showering of blessings and barakaat, and those who are not particular about it face hard situations in their daily life. The enactment displayed a fine example of the Dawoodi Bohras being very particular about Shariat of Islam, especially Salat.
For Lisan al-Dawat, the children staged a talk show that was set-up for the publicity on a book that promoted the importance our cultural language. The author of the book appeared as a special guest along with some other members of the community who took part in the conversation. The program highlighted members of the Dawoodi Bohras from different professions and fields of life who had keenly participated in the event for Lisan al-Dawat.
The third enactment shed light on the cultural importance of our clothes and appearance. The call of Aqa Maula Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin (TUS) to Mumineen for keeping a beard (Dari), wearing a Rida and Topi in accordance to the Shariat of Islam and Sunnat of Rasulallah (SA) was particularly highlighted. The enactment showed how Mumineen gained respect and due credits in real life due to their deeni she’ar (Deeni Appearance). The topi, dari and rida are a religious symbol for Mumineen, a matter of pride, prestige and respect for the Dawoodi Bohras on the whole.
Janab Amil Saheb Qusai Bs Jamaluddin concluded the program with a message of applaud for the children, the participants, khidmat guzaars, the madrasa committee and prayed for everyone who had helped make this program a success. Janab Amil Saheb also stressed that the identity of the Dawoodi Bohras is in upholding the values that the little ones had put forwarded and displayed in their enactment. The message on Salaat, Lisan al-Dawat and the Deeni Shi’ar given by the children is the khushi of our beloved Maula (TUS) and the factual applaud to their talent would be our amal.
May Allah Subhanahu bless our beloved Maula (TUS) with a long life in service of Islam and humanity on the whole. Ameen Labels: 1429, Bainal Miladain, News |
