recently, i hear on a talk..
from a cd to be exact...
dunt know why.. but is seems rather good to hear talk from people who one dont even know how is the talker looks like..
the talker(the one who gives the talk) talk about how to give da'wah to people..
it might at first seem unrelevant to me..
not that i say dakwah is not for me.. but the group of people that the
dakwah is for is different..
well, slightly different aim, but with the same intention,
to Him, for Him..
the talker talks on how should we approach the society out there..
especially to those who are in a different faith as we are..
the talker said we believe in Allah SwTaála..
in His book of guidance, Al-Quranul Kareem..
So use everything that you can exploit from the quran..
Some of his examples in the talk are as below..
1. Create an atmosphere of pain to whatever actions that doesn't bring benefits
-to show that our life should have a purpose.. and from that, what is our true purpose of life..?
2. Anology
-in the quran mentioned a lot of analogies.. which makes me more and more reason to read it.. it somehow stimulate the mind to think about it..well, thats my personal opinion..
3. Stories
-majority people love to hear stories.. so, come up with any story that will make the listener think about it.. and realise about anything that we are aiming to present to the listeneres.. hm..which mean, i need to learn how to tell story in a way that will catch listeners interest to hear..
4. using stimulating questions
- if we look as the story of Ibrahim a.s. for example, he begins dakwah by asking - what are these idols that u r worshipping..
- to always try asking the first question that begins with 'why'.
5. Reminding people of Allah SwT blessings..
- Which one of the favour of Allah that you deny [55: ar-Rahman]
- Being grateful to the favors of Allah Azza wa Jaala-
- but i think, this way will only work to people who already has faith in islam, but need reminders to it..wallahu'alam..
6. Social assistances - one of the most successful dakwah technique
-[al-ma'un(107)]
- look at our world today, how the needy was been given help by a group of religuous view, and becoz of that, the needy follow the teaching of faith that the group who help brought..
ok, that was it..
till then..
