“During my university days, I would often hear from my friends about the brilliance of Maulana Tariq Jameel. His oratory was said to be very powerful. But it was only when I heard his sermon in person that I discovered the glory in Maulana sahab’s masterful eloquence, and realized the true meaning of preaching,” he posted.
The Udaari actor further shared how interacting with the Maulana gave him an opportunity to better explore the depths of Islam. “Personal interactions with Maulana sahab have made me realise that the essence of Islam is rooted in simplicity. His engaging and interacting way of preaching is a gift to us all.” he wrote.
Farhan concluded his post by thanking Maulana for his spiritual contributions to the nation. “No amount of gratitude is enough to thank Maulana Tariq Jameel for his ongoing service the country. May the Almighty always bless him with all His bounties – Aameen.”
