Motivation comes from fulfilling one's purpose to witness to other nations, pleasing Allah, and following righteous peers. True da'wah requires knowledge, training, and striving, and the title of "da'i" (Islamic preacher) should only be given to those with proven Islamic scholarship and commitment to spreading the faith.

This document discusses da'wah (Islamic proselytizing) in Singapore. It notes that while conversion rates to Islam have been substantial, this is not due to organized da'wah programs, but rather personal encounters.

Direct da'wah to non-Muslims also requires wisdom and knowledge to navigate Singapore's multi-religious context. The way Islam is taught to Muslims has also lost its "da'wah-spirit", focusing more on academic study than subjecting oneself to Islam.

(10 April 2011)
Theme - "Reflection on the message of the Qur'an"
Surah Aali 'Imran: 3 : 164
The document provides information about an introductory course on Islam conducted in English for adults by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail. The course consists of 18 weekly classes held on Fridays from January 2017 covering topics on the basic teachings and articles of faith in Islam. It discusses concepts like Tawheed (the oneness of God), the prophethood of Muhammad, belief in God and the afterlife. The document aims to educate Muslims and newcomers to Islam on the fundamental principles and practices of the Islamic faith.
This document provides an overview of Tawheed (the Islamic concept of monotheism) and discusses how some people ascribe partners to God through shirk (polytheism) due to ignorance, imagination, and traditions. It explains how polytheists view multiple gods as controlling different aspects of life and creation. The document aims to teach readers about proper Islamic beliefs regarding God being the one and only creator, sustainer, and object of worship through verses from the Quran and explanations of theological concepts like Tawheed al-Rububiyyah.
This document appears to be notes from an Islamic studies course being conducted in Singapore. It provides lessons on the basic tenets of Islam including a discussion of Iman (faith), Islam (submission to Allah), and Ihsan (righteous conduct). The lessons define key Islamic concepts and include excerpts from the Quran to substantiate the beliefs being discussed.
Primary problem faced by new generation Muslims today is the confusion in Knowledge and misdirected philosophy of education. Among the neglect of our society in our not knowing and not teaching about our true history – HISTORICAL ROOTS - as a people. Apparently, because of this many may have low self-esteem leading to their crisis of identity.

Allah assures that He is near to those who call upon Him in prayer and supplication. He responds to the calls of those who pray to Him and believe in Him, so that they may follow the right path. The verse emphasizes that true satisfaction comes from developing a close connection to Allah through prayer and obedience to His commands, rather than focusing on His unknowable essence. While Allah is always near to respond to supplication, He reminds believers that they too must respond to His call through faith and righteous actions.

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
