Having had a humble beginning with the efforts in a small region known as Mewat in India, Tableeghi Jamaat had now make the presence felt in almost all the continents.In the absence of any publicity material this is indeed a remarkable achievement.The present paper attempts to describe the efforts of Jamaat in the most populous state of India namely Uttar Pradesh.It is unfortunate that not enough material has been produced related to Tableeghi Jamaat. Furthermore, whatever has been written, most of it, is not free from malice and prejudice.As a matter of fact, this kind of study needs participation on the part of any author to present a balance picture.The present author has spent a considerable amount of time to get familiarity with the ideology of Jamaat. Besides outings, the author also participates in the local activities concerning the daily and weekly programmes. The present paper is thus an outcome of this indoor and outdoor participation.It states that how the Jamaat played significant role in the knowledge sharing and transfer and to what extent the Muslim community had been benefitted in India.
