Fazail E Amaal

<p>Introduction</p><p></p><p>The Fazaail-e-Aamaal of Hadhrat Shaikhul Hadith Moulana Muhammad Zakariyya Kandhlawi (rahmatullahi alayh) is among the most famous and well known Islamic books in the world. Allah Ta'ala has blessed this book with great acceptance and popularity throughout the globe. Thousands of people read this book and benefit from it. To date it has been translated into more than a dozen languages.</p><p></p><p>In the year 1432 some members of the Ta'limi Board (KZN) visited Nizaamuddeen and met one of the elders Hadhrat Moulana Ya'qoob Saahib (daamat barakaatuhu). Hadhrat Moulana advised them to read out the Fazaail-e-Aamaal to the children in the makaatib thus encouraging the children to perform Salaah recite Qur-aan make Zikr etc.</p><p></p><p>He mentioned that in the makaatib we are teaching the children only the masaail (laws) of salaah etc. but these children will not be encouraged to perform salaah by just learning the masaail. We will have to read out to them the fazaail (virtues and benefits) in order to encourage them to perform their salaah.</p><p>Hadhrat Moulana Ya'qoob Saahib (daamat barakaatuhu) also advised that the Fazaail-e-Aamaal be simplified and brought down to the level of the children so that they are encouraged to engage in Aamaal-e-Saalihah (good deeds).</p><p></p><p>Therefore in the light of Hadhrat Moulana Ya'qoob Saahib's advice Hadhrat Mufti Ebrahim Salejee Saahib (daamat barakaatuhu) the principal of Madrasah Taleemuddeen initiated the simplifying of the Fazaail-e-Aamaal for the benefit of the children in the makaatib.</p><p></p><p>Ta'limi Board (KZN)</p>
