TJ is a combination of Dawah to masses and a mobile Khanqah.
Offering dawah to common Muslims is an art and few TJ sathees posses that art. People like me do khurooj to spend time in deeni environment. As an alternative for this, can we have masajid, marakiz, islamic centres etc., where an environment is created similar to khurooj of TJ. Under the guidance of ulema, these ulema can be sponsored by the participants. The stay can range from 1 day to a month or more. The center must be open for 365 days in an year.
As I said, the daily schedule can have tahajjud and other nawafil, simple azkaar, tajweed halqas, taleem and muzakirah. A cook and few supporting staff can also be hired.
This reduces travel time, cooking, mujahidah of staying in tough environment etc.
It's a nice idea and perhaps would be very agreeable to the modern Muslims, but mujahidah is the crux of the effort of dawah. That's where its success lies, for the individual as well as for the collective Ummah.
Plus, the idea of cooking for yourself in turns in a jamaat is to instill a sense of khidmat of each other in the Muslims.
You must not forget that the movement of tabligh is ilhami. Maulana Ilyas رحمة الله عليه did not come up with the tarteeb on his own. If there would have been a better way it would have been shown to him. This was the best way, at least for those times and perhaps for half a century afterwards. And though I believe it's time for some new movement to engage the Ummah in the best way, it will have to be ilhami as well.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
