At the Musjid I attend there is a Hifz class.

Answer

The Jalsah for the three Hifz boys is indeed a wasteful event. There is no goodness in this extravagant affair to feed 900 people. There is so much suffering in the Ummah, and there are so many needy people right on our doorstep to whom the money which will be flushed down toilet drains could be given. Indeed this whole jalsah affair depicted by you is obscene. It is immoral to squander so much money on a function of riya, takabbur and israaf. The organizers of this haraam function are 'brothers of the shayaateen.'. This is the epithet with which the Qur'aan portrays the wasters.

It is not permissible to honour the fussaaq, viz., the qaari, the ustaadh and the students. They trim and shave their beards thereby inviting Allah's la'nat on themselves. It is not permissible to attend this evil haraam jalsah which has been organized to manipulate the Deen for nafsaani motives. Among the signs of Qiyaamah mentioned in a Hadith is that 'the world will be pursued with the amal of the Aakhirah.' Relevant to this haraam jalsah, the amal of the Aakhirah is the recitation and the learning of the Qur'aan Majeed which are pure acts of ibaadat whereas the world in this context consists of the vile nafsaani desires of riya (show), ujub (vanity/self-esteem) and takabbur (pride). In the pursuit of these despicable nafsaani motives such a big, haraam. and wasteful 'wedding' party is being organized. It is not permissible to participate in this immoral function in any way whatsoever.
