This presentation attempts to clarify the nature of 'Islamic Work' and inspire individuals to get involved in making this world a better place - since it is a divine obligation.
The document discusses the moral basis of Islamic leadership. It outlines four key principles: iman (faith), Islam (submission to Allah), ihsan (doing everything for the sake of Allah), and taqwa (God-consciousness). It also discusses sources of Islamic leadership principles from the Quran and examples from the Prophet Muhammad. Some characteristics of Islamic leaders are discussed, including integrity, justice, humility and knowledge. The relationship between leaders and followers in Islam is described as one of consultation and service.
This document provides an introduction to the book "Leadership: An Islamic Perspective" which aims to define leadership from an Islamic lens. The book is dedicated to the authors' parents and Khurram Murad, who inspired many as a leader. It explores Islamic concepts of leadership, roles, moral bases, styles, and frameworks. It also examines developing and empowering followers, coaching, delegation, and achieving effectiveness through challenging processes and inspiring a shared vision. The overall objective is to understand leadership according to Islamic principles by focusing on doing good and serving as a guardian over one's followers.
The document discusses leadership in the church and proposes a new paradigm is needed. It argues that the professional minister model is no longer effective and a missionary leader model is more appropriate for today's mission field context. A missionary leader focuses on discovery, fulfillment, and mission. Their philosophy is one of pilgrimage and their theology and culture are dynamic and emerging to meet the needs of people.
Psalm 23 is a psalm that describes God as a shepherd who provides for and protects his flock. The psalm is divided into two sections sung responsively by two choirs. The first choir sings of God's provision, making the psalmist lie down in green pastures and leading them to safe waters. The second choir sings of God guiding the psalmist on the right path and protecting them, even in the darkest of valleys. Both choirs sing of God preparing a table before them in the presence of enemies and God's goodness following them all the days of their lives. The psalm ends with both choirs praising God's glory.

Muhammad founded Islam after claiming to receive visions from the angel Gabriel. He taught that there is only one God, Allah, and wrote down his teachings in the Quran. Muhammad was forced to flee Mecca due to his beliefs, establishing Islam in Medina. After winning an important battle against Mecca, Muhammad took control of the city and forced its residents to convert. Upon Muhammad's death, leadership of Islam passed to Abu Bakr and later Ali, splitting Islam into Sunni and Shia sects. The five pillars of Islam are the core duties of Muslims and include professing faith, praying daily, giving alms, fasting, and making a pilgrimage to Mecca.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

guidance.

observe your work, and His Messenger,
