another DONT of dawah is that u SHOULDNT come across as a religious snob :evil:

Submitted by MuslimSisLilSis on 5 October, 2005 - 17:05

the WORST type of dawah IMO is when people put other religions down in order to big their own religion up

this is WRONG

u get people explaining why muslim women wear hijaab by saying how "ugly, cheap and common" non muslim women look when they dont wear one :roll:

NO WONDER people dont want to know

well on the topic of Dawah.....

today at Uni of Manchester, Shaykh Zia Ullah Khan from Canada did a terrific speech, one that was really relevant, and as always with him - really funny.

i think more attempt needs to be made into coming across as knowledgable, approachable and funny.

second time ive heard him in a month, and this guy i rate.

The Lover is ever drunk with love;
He is free, he is mad,
He dances with ecstasy and delight.

Caught by our own thoughts,
We worry about every little thing,
But once we get drunk on that love,
Whatever will be, will be.

I think 90% of Dawah depends on the presentation/approach.

Yet, too many people undermine it's importance. One is more likley to reject someone's message if they have an issue with the presentation-even if the speaker is speaking Haq (truth).

Thats right.

If the advertising companies can sell us all sort crap simply by nice packging techniques, then surely Truth which is far more attractive, would only needs a small amount of good presentation.

God should be put in the most beautiful of packages.

If you can't do that, then don't sell God.

Sell something else !!

the first part of ur post was very valid

then u had to ruin it with ur last two lines :roll:

People do not "sell God"

they promote his religion

promotion and sales are the same thing.

We are always selling. Sometimes its ourselves, at other times its our beliefs.

Its different from selling out, where you just buy wholesale someone elses position.
