About Jamiah

وَلْتَكُن مِّنكُمْ أُمَّةٌۭ يَدْعُونَ إِلَى ٱلْخَيْرِ وَيَأْمُرُونَ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ ٱلْمُنكَرِ ۚ وَأُو۟لَـٰئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُفْلِحُونَ
“Let there be a group among you who call others to goodness, encourage what is good, and forbid what is evil — it is they who will be successful.”
Surah Al-Imran · 3:104
