IMAM’S PRESENCE IN JAMATKHANA By: Mumtaz Ali Tajddin S.Ali

“Nothing will make me happier than to know that you are regular in attendance in Jamatkhana, and nothing will hurt me more than to know that you are irregular in attendance. I want to make this very clear indeed. This is for all my spiritual children all over the world.”

Quote 456

Historically serving communities of different interpretations and spiritual affiliations, these spaces have retained their cultural nomenclatures and characteristics, from ribat and zawiyya to khanaqa and jamatkhana..Here, the Jamatkhana will be reserved for traditions and practices specific to the Shia Ismaili tariqah of Islam. The Centre on the other hand, will be a symbol of confluence between the spiritual and the secular in Islam

Quote 455

The congregational space incorporated within the Ismaili Centre belongs to the historic category of jamatkhana, an institutional category that also serves a number of sister Sunni and Shia communities, in their respective contexts, in many parts of the world. Here, the Jamatkhana will be reserved for traditions and practices specific to the Shia Ismaili tariqah of Islam

Jamatkhana by Alwaez Abdul Sultan hasham

Jamatkhana is a place of worship, inspiration, progress, peace, & protection.
Jamatkhana is an earthly abode paradise. Allah's revelation (Qu'ran) says:
Enter the gateway with humility, posture & words. Allah has manifested his light in
certain houses (Jamatkhanas).

Every one step that you take towards coming to the House of Hazar Imam,
He takes 100 steps towards you. As soon as you make a Conscious decision
to leave your house and come to the House of Hazar Imam, the blessings start
from there.

Coming to Jamatkhana is NOT your choice, it is an EXPECTATION
