Dawat and Tabligh

Usools of the tablighi jamaat

Q: In the mastooraat programmes of the tabligh jamaat, some usools are, that ladies are:

1) Not allowed to give bayaan. Only speak a straightforward 6 points following the tarteeb without making it flowery and giving their own input.

2) Not allowed to sit on a chair and read the kitaab or speak the 6 points. To the extent that if a lady is elderly and normally sits on a chair then too she must sit on the floor otherwise she mustn't read.

I would like to know the basis of these usools if mufti can explain, the reasons ladies can't give bayaans, nor sit on the chair?

Dawat and tabligh

Q: I have a question about importance of dawat and tabligh. I want to know if tabligh is fard or wajib or anything else? Tell me anything about dawah in Islam in Shariah. I want to ask that if I don't do dawah do I go to paradise or am I a real muslim that Allah accepts?

Imaan and Salaah

Q: We hear in jamaat bayaans that Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and sahabah made effort on imaan for 9 to 13 years, sometimes we hear 11 to 13 years, before salaah and other commandments came down. What should one say, 9, 11, 13, years effort of imaan was made before the commandments came down from Allah?
