The document summarizes the secret first phase of da'wah (mission to invite people to Islam) that lasted three years. During this time, the Prophet Muhammad privately invited close family and friends to become Muslims, including Khadijah, Ali, Zaid, and his daughters. Small groups of early converts included Uthman ibn Affan, Abdurrahman ibn Auf, and Sa'ad ibn Abi Waqqash. The da'wah was conducted secretly to protect the small community of Muslims. Prayer, cleanliness, and study of the Quran were important practices. The document also notes the house of Al-Arqam ibn Abil

 Abdullah ibn Jahsh
 Ammar ibn Yasir and his family
 Abdullah ibn Mas’ud
 Bilal ibn Rabbah
 Mush’ab ibn Umair

6.  As-sabiqun al-awwalun. Not more than 40 people
 Selective dakwah
 people who likely to respond
 Mostly chosen for their character and noble manner
 Mixture men and women, the elites and the poor
 Secretive dakwah
 Important to protect the few muslim untill their iman
strong enough to face the onslaught later on

7.  Shalat and taharah were ordained from the very beginning
 2 times in the morning and evening, 2 raka’ah each
 Early Quran was received with understanding and deep
contemplation
 Focus on tauhid and creed
 Establishment of tauhid, remembrence of Allah
 Believe in the here after: life after death, reckoning,
vivid description of paradise and hell fire
 Stories of Prophets and their follower

8.  The first headquarter of da’wah
 The house of Al-Arqam ibn Abil-Arqam
 Why the house of Abil Arqam?
 Not known to be the close companions Prophet
 To young to attract Quraysh attention
 From bani Makzum, unlikely to embrace Islam
 His house is isolated from the rest of houses in Mecca
(beyond the Safa)

9.  Quraysh knew about this movement but do not pay much
attention initially
 Some people making claim against their idols in the past
 Akin to Qass ibn Sa’edah, Zaid ibn Amr ibn Nufail etc.
 No prosecution at this period
 Quraysh was alarmed with the message
 It treaten their way of life and social order
 Followers across family and social status in Quraysh
 They adhere to the teaching and leadership of Prophet

public declaration of Islam and Quraysh prosecution, insyaAllah
