ijtima
Ijtima is an Arabic term that refers to a gathering or assembly, often for religious or community purposes. It is commonly associated with the Tablighi Jamaat, a global Islamic missionary organization that organizes large gatherings to promote faith and encourage Muslims to practice their religion more actively. These events typically include speeches, prayers, and discussions on Islamic teachings.
During an ijtima, participants come together to share knowledge, strengthen their faith, and foster a sense of community. The gatherings can attract thousands of attendees, providing an opportunity for individuals to connect with others who share similar beliefs and values, ultimately aiming to inspire collective spiritual growth.
