The topic of my talk is misconceptions about Islam. It is

00:00:09 --> 00:00:14

the duty of every Muslim to do Dawa. Dawa is compulsory upon

00:00:14 --> 00:00:15

every Muslim.

00:00:18 --> 00:00:22

What is the meaning of the word Dolla dolla It is derived from the

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

root word that hola

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

which means a call, which means to invite.

00:00:28 --> 00:00:32

So when we invite the non Muslims towards Islam and Islamic

00:00:32 --> 00:00:37

terminology is called as Dawa. It's the duty of every Muslim to

00:00:37 --> 00:00:41

convey the message of Islam to the non Muslims to those who are

00:00:41 --> 00:00:42

unaware of it.

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

I started my talk with the creation from the Glorious Quran

00:00:45 --> 00:00:50

from sutra *, chapter 16 was Psalm 125, who severely Rob

00:00:50 --> 00:00:54

pickable Hikmah, while Maori yoga till hashanah was a military acid

00:00:55 --> 00:00:59

in why to the way of dialogue with wisdom and beautiful teachings and

00:00:59 --> 00:01:04

argue with them and reason with them in the ways that our best and

00:01:04 --> 00:01:09

most gracious their way this methodologies of doing Dawa some

00:01:09 --> 00:01:13

are less effective, or those are more effective, one of the most

00:01:13 --> 00:01:17

common methodologies used by many Muslims, when they are doing Dawa

00:01:17 --> 00:01:22

to the non Muslims is that they speak 100 good points about Islam.

00:01:23 --> 00:01:28

Even if the non Muslim, he agrees with all the 100 good points that

00:01:28 --> 00:01:31

have been spoken, yet, at the back off his mind, he will have a few

00:01:31 --> 00:01:36

negative points. He will say, I do agree with what you have said. But

00:01:36 --> 00:01:40

you are the same Muslim, who's a fundamentalist Ah, you are the

00:01:40 --> 00:01:45

same Muslim who's a terrorist. You are the people who subjugate the

00:01:45 --> 00:01:48

woman by keeping them behind the wheel. You are the people who

00:01:48 --> 00:01:52

spread your religion at the point of the sod. These few negative

00:01:52 --> 00:01:56

points at the back of his mind will prevent him from accepting

00:01:56 --> 00:02:00

the beauty of Islam. That's the reason when I meet a non Muslim

00:02:00 --> 00:02:05

what I prefer, I asked him upfront, what do you feel is wrong

00:02:05 --> 00:02:09

with Islam? With the limited knowledge whether right or wrong?

00:02:09 --> 00:02:13

What do you feel is wrong with Islam, and I make him comfortable?

00:02:13 --> 00:02:17

And after he's made comfortable, he poses three or four questions.

00:02:17 --> 00:02:20

I make him comfortable that he can attack Islam. You can criticize

00:02:20 --> 00:02:24

Islam, he can pose any question regarding Islam. And after he's

00:02:24 --> 00:02:29

made comfortable, he poses three or four questions. There are a set

00:02:29 --> 00:02:33

of 20 most common questions asked by non Muslims regarding Islam.

00:02:34 --> 00:02:37

Now these three or four questions that non Muslim poses invariably

00:02:37 --> 00:02:41

falls in the 20 most common questions asked by non Muslims

00:02:41 --> 00:02:46

regarding Islam. Every Muslim should be aware to the replies of

00:02:46 --> 00:02:50

00:02:57 --> 00:03:02

scriptures as well. It is better to know the replies of 20 most

00:03:02 --> 00:03:07
