The Spirit Behind Dawah
Dawah’s work has been termed in the Quran as ‘the call to God.’ In other words, dawah work aims at bringing people closer to their Creator and Sustainer. Calling people to God tells them that the only right way of life for them on this earth is to become true believers in God. Calling people to God aims at directing their attention neither to politics nor national issues. It is unequivocally the task of making people focus on God and must, therefore, be performed in the correct spirit. It is said in the Quran that God created man in ‘the best mould’ and then ‘cast him down to the lowest of the low.’ (95:4-5) The process of dawah is to bring the individual back to his original state, help him gain entry into Paradise once again, and bring him under the protection of the Lord’s blessings.
