In the Name
of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Dawah - An
Obligation

Allah is
One <---> Quraan is One <--->
Siraat_ul_Mustaqeem is One
One Ummah
<---> One Islaam
<---> One Voice <---> One Worshipping Method
Invite (all) to the Way
of thy Lord
with wisdom and beautiful preaching; and argue with them in ways that
are best and most gracious: for thy Lord knoweth best, who have strayed
from His Path, and who receive guidance. (Al_Quraan_016.125)
You Hear it that is it,
Now it is
Between You and Allah and Those Who Listen BUT Do Not Obey are the
Worst Animal, since they do not try to understand (Ref:
Al_Quraan_008.020-022)
Be aware of Negative
Dawah and MIND your Language. (Ref: Al_Quraan_007.199)
On Internet, which is
another kind of
pen and book, use your energies to promote Islamic Thoughts only on
email or Islaamic Groups like available on Yahoo Groups Google Groups.
You MUST avoid on Instant Message unless there is online debate, since
that is like forcing someone. If you get any UNISLAAMIC Things on
email, just DELETE it.
Anxiety (Stress or
Tension) hurts
you, specially from the loved ones. There is NO Compulsion in
Religion..... (Ref: Al_Quraan_002:256, 109:006)
Also Remember that both
Musaa
(Peace-Be-Upon-Him) and Khizr (Peace-Be-Upon-Him) were
prophets/messengers and obeyed Allah BUT disagreed on some of their
mission. So we might differ in our missions to help the world, BUT our
goal to obey Allah is same. You might be obeying Allah, according to
what you understand and I am also obeying Allah according to what I
understand. It is time to UNITE not DIVIDE and be Positive.
The World is shrinking
and becoming a
Global Family. I found this as a KEY point in cooling down the mind of
others, so always remember and keep reminding, that we are the children
of Adam and Eve and we are Cousin Brothers and Cousin Sisters and we
are a Global Family. (Ref: Al_Quraan_017.070)
None argue concerning
the revelations (Ayaat) of Allah but those who disbelieve...
(Al_Quraan_040.004)
Every Single Muslims
MUST do
Preaching. Scholars have to do Fulltime Dawah while rest of the Ummah
MUST do Part Time Dawah. Be with those who do Dawah. (Ref:
Al_Quraan_018.028, 003.110, 016.125)
Be
Patience after doing Dawah. Ref: Al_Quraan Surat Al_Asr_103)
Get
out from your barrack / hujra / cave and start doing Effective Dawah
from the Quraan with wisdom by all means including modern technologies,
(Al_Quraan_016.125, 074.001-007).
