EDUCATION OF
MUSLIMS AND
DA’WAH

““INDEED, there has come unto you [O mankind] a Messenger
[Muhammad] from among yourselves: heavily weighs -upon
him [the thought] that you might suffer [in the life to come];
full of concern for you [is he, and] full of compassion and
mercy towards the believers.”.”
((Qur’an: Taubah: 9: 128Qur’an: Taubah: 9: 128))

ALL MANKIND SINCE HIS TIME UNTIL END TIMES

‘invited’ to Al-Islam
The community who has
‘accepted’ Al-Islam

“All of my people (UMMATI ) will enter paradise except those who
refuse.” They said : O Messenger of Allah, Who are those who refuse?.
He then said: “ Whoever obeys me will enter Paradise, and whoever
disobey me is one who refuses (to enter it).”
(Hadith reported by Bukhary)

“ Invite them to Islam, and inform them what is enjoined upon
them for, I swear on Allah, if Allah should guide one person
through you, it is better for you than possessing the ‘red camels’
(i.e. the most precious of things to have then).”
(Hadith reported by Abu Dawud)

“People are like minerals, the best of them in Jahiliyah
will still be the best amongst them in Islam,
so long as they have proper (profound) understanding.”
(Hadith reported by Bukhary, Muslim, Darimi and Ahmad)

Potentials, opportunities & Amanah:
1. All the people who are invited or have accepted Islam already possess
the inherent goodness, value and capabilities like that of raw minerals.
When they become Muslims, it is with their education in Islam that
would actualize, perfect and manifest their respective potentials.
2. Therefore make DA’WAH and ensure their education – literally their
“understanding of the religion Islam” (FAQIH FID-DEEN) is in
accordance with that which the Prophet had done whereby they were
all harnessed to serve Allah’ cause fulfilling the legacy – they became
the best and exemplary community as witnesses to all mankind.
3. If Muslims are developed not to primarily serve the Ummah but for
other cause, it may be deemed betrayal towards His Messenger .

Parents may already
provide nurturing in
accordance with Islamic
traditions. Yet although
much time spent confined
at home, we must also
become aware of strong
influences through
exposures of the mass
media and our family
lifestyle and parental
behavior.

Although some basic
knowledge of Islam may have
been provided, yet when they
sent the children to formal
school, stress towards
“academic excellence” only
and tend to neglect the
“Aqeedah-mic” element in
their education which must
continuously be complimented
in tandem with their
development while in and
throughout their schooling
age.
SCHOOLING PERIOD
EXPOSURE TO TODAY’S
“TEENS SUB-CULTURE”

With lesser contact-time at
home, and inadequate
mentoring & monitoring
Islamically by parents, their
education becomes
“secularized”; children may be
left to peers and media
influences. Islamic values may
began to be subsumed by
negative trends and sub-
cultures opposed to Islam.
Some may begin to have
doubts about Islam or even
lose their Muslim identity.
FURTHER
EXPOSURE TO
TODAY’S “TEENS
SUB-CULTURE”

At this level, our young may
become more independent (less
attached to family influence);
their idealism may lead them to
‘try out’, to adapt and adopt
values alien to Islam itself.
Serious crisis of identity usually
occur at this stage – usually when
they become ‘worldly-wise’ but
unfortunately their knowledge of
Islam stagnates at “kindergarten
or primary” level.
