The Aalami Tablighi Ijtema will be held in Bhopal from November 14 to 17, according to an announcement made late on Monday evening by the Delhi Markaz, the headquarters of Tablighi Jamaat.
Last year’s Ijtema saw over one million attendees, the highest ever. Organisers expect an even larger turnout this year, reflecting the growing global reach of the spiritual congregation.
Dr Mohammad Umar Khan, Media Coordinator of the Bhopal Ijtema Committee, said preparations for the 78th Ijtema will.brgin well in time with help from the administration and volunteers.
The Bhopal Ijtema, which began in 1947 with just 13 individuals, has grown into a symbol of spiritual unity, drawing lakhs to Eintkhedi on Bhopal’s outskirts each year.
The Ijtema’s journey from the Shakoor Khan Mosque to Taj-ul-Masajid and now to Eintkhedi reflects its evolution and its deepening spiritual and social significance.
Spanning four days, the event features sermons, prayers and delegations from across India and abroad. Each year, it brings new messages of devotion, harmony and faith.
