توجيهات ونصائح للداعية المسلم
http://www.gulflobby.com/upload/get-5-2007-gulflobby_com_e8n71p4l.gif
أولاً: إن مهمة الداعية ليست تبكيت الناس ولا تقريعهم، ولا يبدأ بعيبهم وذمهم؛ لأن هذا قد يثير حمية الانتصار لأنفسهم أو لعدالتهم أو لمذاهبهم أو لأقوالهم ويعين الشيطان عليهم.
ثانياً: طريق الدعوة مليء بالأشواك.
قال تعالى: { لتبلون في أموالكم وأنفسكم ولتسمعن من الذين أوتوا الكتاب من قبلكم ومن الذين أشركوا أذى كثيراً، وإن تصبروا وتتقوا فإن ذلك من عزم الأمور} .[آل عمران: 186].
ثالثاً: ينبغي أن يكون الداعية دائم القلق لحال الناس من غير يأس ولا قنوط، فيحمل هم الإسلام ولا يتجاهله كمن عنده صداع في رأسه لا يمكن أن يتناساه أو يغفل عنه.
رابعاً: طريق الدعوة والإيمان يحفل بالمتراجعين والمترددين والناكصين، وما أجمل أن يصبر الداعية على هذا الضعف والتردد، فيطيل النفس معهم ولا يحملهم ما لا تطيق نفوسهم وطباعهم وإمكاناتهم.
قال تعالى: { خذ العفو وأمر بالمعروف وأعرض عن الجاهلين } [الأعراف: 199].
قال الإمام الطبري رحمه الله: "خذ العفو من أخلاق الناس واترك الغلظة عليهم".
فلا ينبغي أن يغلب جهل المدعو حلم الداعية بحال من الأحوال.
خامساً: أن نكون دعاة إلى الإسلام بأخلاقنا الحسنة , فكما نعلم في الماضي انتشر الإسلام في البلدان البعيدة عن طريق حسن أخلاق التجار المسلمين , فجدير بنا التحلي بمحاسن الأخلاق لدعوتهم .
سادساً: التمسك القوي بتعاليم الشريعة الإسلامية , مثل الحجاب والصلاة وغض البصر والابتعاد عن المحرمات كالخمر , فلو رأى الكفار منا تفريطاً لوقع في نفوسهم شكٌ في صحة الديـــــــن.
سابعاً: ليس الهدف من الدعوة هو تحطيم أشخاص معينين أو إسقاطهم، فلم يكن هم موسى عليه السلام القضاء على فرعون بل كان يرجو أن يخرج الناس من عبودية العباد إلى إخلاص العبادة لرب العباد.
فلا بد من البعد عن السب والشتم، فهو ليس من طرق الدعوة ولا من وسائلها، فهي جاءت لإسقاط الباطل وبسقوطه يسقط من حمله.
ثامناً: الدعوة إلى الله، هي دعوة على بصيرة، بصيرة بكل شيء، من طريق الدعوة و السبيل الأقوم وأخذ حظ من العلم المؤصل السليم، وبصيرة بحال المدعوين وظروفهم، وبأعداء الدعوة وأساليبهم، وبصير كذلك بنفسه ليعرف إرادته ونيته فلا يلتبس عليه الأمر ولا تتداخل المقاصد , و أن يكون قوي العقيدة حيث لا يتأثر بتشكيكهم في صحة الإسلام .

Important Message to Non Muslims
رسالـــــــة هـــامة إلى غير المسلمين
If anyone has a real desire to be a Muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-beings, then, one should pronounce the "Shahada", the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur'an is explicit on this regard as Allah states:
"The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam." (Qur'an 3:19)
In another verse of the Holy Qur'an, Allah states:
"If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost."(Qur'an 3:85)
If a person does not pronounce the Shahada and enter Islaam, we cannot say that he is a Muslim, even if he admired Islaam and recognized that it the best religion, a great religion, and so on. Abu Taalib, the uncle of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) died a kaafir (non-Muslim), and Allaah forbade His Prophet to pray for forgiveness for him, even though he used to defend the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said in his poems: "I do know that the religion of Muhammad is better than all other religions of mankind; were it not for fear of blame or slander, you would find me accepting it completely

WHAT IS ISLAM?
ما هـو الإسلام ..؟
Can we find an explanation of the great universe? Is there any convincing interpretation of the secret of existence? We realize that no family can function properly without a responsible head, that no city can prosperously exist without sound administration, and that no state can survive without a leader of some kind. We also realize that nothing comes into being on its own. Moreover, we observe that the universe exists and functions in the most orderly manner, and that it has survived for hundreds of thousand of years. Can we then say that all this is accidental and haphazard? Can we attribute the existence of man and the whole world to mere chance.
Man represents only a very small portion of the great universe. And if he can make plans and appreciate the merits of planning, then his own existence and the survival of the universe must also be a planned policy. This means that there is an extraordinary power to bring things into being and keep them moving in order.
In the world then must be a great force in action to keep everything in order. In the beautiful nature there must be a Great creator who creates the most charming pieces of art produces every thing for a special purpose in life. The deeply enlightened people recognize this creator and call him Allah "God". He is not a man because no man can create or make another man. He is not an animal, nor he is a plant. He is neither an Idol nor is He a statue of any kind because non of these things can make itself or create anything else. He is different from all these things because he is the maker and keeper of them all. The maker of anything must be different from and greater than things which he makes.
There are various ways to know God "ALLAH'' and there are many things to tell about him. The great wonders and impressive marvels of the world are like open books in which we can read about God. Besides, God Himself comes to our aid through the many Messengers and revelations He has sent down to man. These Messengers and revelations tell us everything we need to know about God.
http://www.gulflobby.com/upload/get-5-2007-gulflobby_com_y1lk6xwp.gif
The complete acceptance of the teachings and guidance of God 'Allah' as revealed to His Messengers Muhammad is the religion of Islam. Islam enjoins faith in the oneness and sovereignty of Allah, which makes man aware of meaningfulness of the Universe and of his place in it. This belief frees him from all fears and superstitions by making him conscious of the presence of the Almighty Allah and of man's obligations towards Him. This faith must be expressed and tested in actions, faith alone is not enough. Belief in one God requires that we look upon all humanity as one family under the universal Omnipotence of God the Creator and Nourisher of all. Islam rejects the idea of chosen people, making belief in God and good actions the only way to heaven. Thus, a direct relationship in established with God, without any intercessor.
Islam is not a new religion. It is, in essence, the same message and guidance which Allah revealed to all Prophets. Adam, Noah, Abraham, Ismael, David, Moses and Jesus (PBUT). But the message which was revealed to Prophet Mohammed (PBUT) is Islam in its comprehensive, complete and final form.
http://www.gulflobby.com/upload/get-5-2007-gulflobby_com_599lc2ma.jpg
The Quran is the last revealed word of Allah and the basic
source of Islamic teachings and laws. The Quran deals with the basis of creeds, morality, history of humanity, worship, knowledge, wisdom, God-man relationship, and human relationship in all aspects. Comprehensive teaching on which, can be built sound systems of social justice, economics, politics, legislation, jurisprudence, law and international relations, are important *******s of the Quran. Hadith, the teachings, sayings and actions of Prophet Mohammed (PBUT), meticulously reported and collected by his devoted companions. Explained and elaborated the Quranic verses.
There are five pillars of Islam:
The declaration of faith: To bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Mohammad (PBUH) is His Messenger to all human beings till the Day of Judgment. The Prophethood of Mohammad obliges the Muslims to follow, His exemplary life as a model.
Prayers: Daily, prayers are offered five times a day as a duty towards Allah. They strengthen and enliven the belief in Allah and inspire man to a higher morality. They purify the heart and prevent temptation towards wrong - doings and evil.
Fasting the month of Ramadan. The Muslims during the month of Ramadan not only abstain from food, drink and ***************ual intercourse from dawn to sunset but also sincerity and devotion. It develops a sound social conscience, patience, unselfishness and will - Power.
Zakkah: The literal and simple meaning of Zakkah is purity. The technical meaning of this word designates the annual amount in kind or coin which a Muslim with means must distribute among the rightful beneficiaries. But the religious and spiritual significance of Zakkah is much deeper and more lively. So it has humanitarian and sociopolitical values.
Hajj (Pilgrimage to Makkah): It is to be performed once in a lifetime, if one can afford it financially and physically

Some Basic Islamic Beliefs
1) Belief in God:
Muslims believe in one, unique, incomparable God, Who has no son nor partner, and that none has the right to be worshipped but Him alone. He is the true God, and every other deity is false. He has the most magnificent names and sublime perfect attributes. No one shares His divinity, nor His attributes. In the Quran, God describes Himself:
Say, “He is God, the One. God, to Whom the creatures turn for their needs. He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none like Him.” (Quran, 112:1-4)
2) Belief in the Angels:
Muslims believe in the existence of the angels and that they are honored creatures. The angels worship God alone, obey Him, and act only by His command. Among the angels is Gabriel, who brought down the Quran to Muhammad .
3) Belief in God’s Revealed Books:
Muslims believe that God revealed books to His messengers as proof for mankind and as guidance for them. Among these books is the Quran, which God revealed to the Prophet Muhammad . God has guaranteed the Quran’s protection from any corruption or distortion. God has said:
Indeed, We have sent down the Quran, and surely We will guard it (from corruption). (Quran, 15:9)
http://www.gulflobby.com/upload/get-5-2007-gulflobby_com_y1lk6xwp.gif
4) Belief in the Prophets and Messengers of God:
Muslims believe in the prophets and messengers of God, starting with Adam, including Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, and Jesus (peace be upon them). But God’s final message to man, a reconfirmation of the eternal message, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad . Muslims believe that Muhammad is the last prophet sent by God, as God has said:
Muhammad is not the father of any one of your men, but he is the Messenger of God and the last of the prophets... (Quran, 33:40)
Muslims believe that all the prophets and messengers were created human beings who had none of the divine qualities of God.
5) Belief in the Day of Judgment:
Muslims believe in the Day of Judgment (the Day of Resurrection) when all people will be resurrected for God’s judgment according to their beliefs and deeds.
6) Belief in Al-Qadar:
Muslims believe in Al-Qadar, which is Divine Predestination, but this belief in Divine Predestination does not mean that human beings do not have freewill. Rather, Muslims believe that God has given human beings freewill. This means that they can choose right or wrong and that they are responsible for their choices.
The belief in Divine Predestination includes belief in four things: 1) God knows everything. He knows what has happened and what will happen. 2) God has recorded all that has happened and all that will happen. 3) Whatever God wills to happen happens, and whatever He wills not to happen does not happen. 4) God is the Creator of everything.
