Is this hadith authentic "70000 people will enter jannah without reckoning"In maulana ashraf ali thanvis book hayatul muslimeen it says only people like ulama and people with knowlede should to tabligh jammaat.

Answer

1. Aalim and Moulana means the same thing. This course takes approximately 6 years. The Hifz course depends on the memory and competence of the individual. It usually takes about 3 years. There is no age limit for any of these courses. The fee is R5400 per year (app. U$D800) for students who can afford it. This fee includes tuition, boarding and meals. You are most welcome to make further enquiries.

2. Yes, this is an authentic Hadith.

3. Moulana Thanwi (RA) meant that people who have knowledge of what they speak should engage in propagation. In other words, if you don?t know something, how could you propagate it. This does not mean that ignorant people should refrain from joining the Tableeghi Jamaat.
