Assalaam alaikum wa Rahmatu Allah wa Barakatuhu
We welcome you back to a new year and hope all of you are in the best health and Iman. One of the many committees available this year as part of ISRU is the Dawah committee. Focusing on the spread of the knowledge contained within the religion of Islam, the Dawah Committee’s main goal is to relay this sacred knowledge to those who do not know, and furthermore to strengthen the Iman among us Muslims, who may already know. As Muslims we are blessed with a beautiful religion that teaches us how to live our lives in a meaningful way, worshiping Allah (SWT). Giving Dawah, an invitation to the guided path of Allah (SWT), is an obligation on every Muslim. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was a beautiful example in the way he (SAW) gave Dawah, peacefully, sincerely and logically. We must follow our beloved Prophet’s (SAW) sunnah in order to receive his Shifa’a on That Day. We have a graceful religion about which we are obligated to inform our community. And if we do not, who will?
Glorious Qur’an, 7.181
And of those whom We have created are people who guide (others) with truth and thereby do justice.
Glorious Qur’an 16.125
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.
