Dawah

In Arabic , Dawah means "invite" or "invitation." Islamically speaking, Dawah is the Muslim responsibility to "invite" non-Muslims to Islam. Muslims often disagree about the way of Dawah. However, as a general principle, most Muslims agree that successful Dawah includes knowledge of Islam, manners, and sincerity and intention in action.

Da‘wah means literally "issuing a summons" or "making an invitation", being the active participle of a verb meaning variously "to summon, to invite" (whose triconsonantal root is د ع و ). A Muslim who practices da‘wah , either as a religious worker or in a volunteer community effort, is called a dā‘ī , plural du‘āt .

Da‘wah (also transliterated daawa(h) ; "invitation") means the proselytizing or preaching of Islam . Da‘wah literally means "issuing a summons" or "making an invitation", being a gerund of a verb meaning variously "to summon" or "to invite" (whose triconsonantal root is d-ʕ-w دعو ). A Muslim who practices da‘wah , either as a religious worker or in a volunteer community effort, is called a dā‘ī ( داعي , plural du‘āh / du‘āt دعاة ). A dā‘ī is thus a person who invites people to understand Islam through dialogue , not unlike the Islamic equivalent of a missionary inviting people to the faith, prayer and manner of Islamic life.
