In this book we study The Tabligh Jama'at, an Islamic revivalist
movement which, through participation in its preaching tours,
provides satisfaction to individuals experiencing the crisis of
modernity. Preaching tours enable Muslims to become workers for
Allah and involved in the renewal of Allah's world. We explore the
ideological underpinning of preaching and working for Allah through
the application of Frame Theory. Through an analytic framework
comprising framing tasks and framing processes we unpack how the
ideas of Islamic revivalism found in key Tabligh Jama'at written
and oral texts - the Faza'il-e-A'maal and bayans - are packaged and
communicated in such a way as to attract individuals to participate
in preaching tours. The book concludes that working for Allah
provides Muslims with meaning, social solidarity, and satisfaction
which modernity has failed to provide them. This book will appeal
to academics, researchers, journalists, policy-makers, and research
students interested in or working on Islamic revivalist movements.
