DAWA
The first pillar of Islam is Shahadah. Shahadah
means bearing witness to the Truth. Not only do we enter Islam
by declaring our Shahadah, but we intend to be successful
in the Hereafter by bearing witness to the Truth with our
deeds and words in this life. Shahadah was the job assignment
of Prophet Muhammad, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon
him. After the Prophet, now it is the personal and collective
duty of Muslims to invite humanity to follow the guidance
from our Creator.
Dawa, invitation to Islam, is the major part
of Shahadah. This page is dedicated to provide helpful resources
for Dawa.

[Al-Anfal 8 : 44]
