Tabligh
Trinidad and Tobago
The President had received a Report that the people of the above Islands were celebrating Muharram in a carnival style. He sent Maulana Syed Ali Baqri to investigate. Accompanied by Mr. Ashik Kermali and other Momineens of New York, Maulana Baqri visited Trinidad and Tobago. Following this, Bilal Muslim Mission of America was formed with a view to spreading Shia Mazhab in the Americas. This Organization works very closely with Imam-e-Zamana Mission of Port of Spain to carry out Tablighy work according to the teachings of Ahlul Bayt (A.S.) This year when the President visited Port of Spain, he was informed that much progress had been made, due to the efforts of Bilal Muslim Mission of America. For the first time, no alcohol was served or consumed during the procession. It is hoped that in time, as the Muslim community in these Islands understand the significance of the occasion, the procession will portray the correct message.
