It shows that this success results from the positive image that it cultivates, and the systematic preaching activities of Tablighi Jamaat followers, and that the organisation?s apolitical image, the public profile of the ijtema, the humbleness of Tablighi followers, and the attraction of belonging to the global Tablighi community all help to create a positive image of the Tablighi Jamaat among ordinary Muslims. The book also argues that the Tablighi Jamaat remains successful because of its ability to hold its followers within a Tablighi-guided life, which is perceived as protection against the Western lifestyle. Many elements of contemporary Western lifestyle are considered non-Islamic, and so by clearly defining what is Islamic and non-Islamic in modern society, the Tablighi Jamaat provides a way in which Muslims can live in the contemporary world, but remain good Muslims. 606 $aEthnology 606 $aEthnology 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aSocial Anthropology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12030 606 $aEthnography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12060 606 $aSociology of Religion$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22210 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 14$aSocial Anthropology. 615 24$aEthnography. 615 24$aSociology of Religion. 676 $a306 700 $aSiddiqi$b Bulbul$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0902455 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300608603321 996 $aBecoming ?Good Muslim?$92017417 997 $aUNINA
