Aims of our
newly formed Da’wah Organization
- To avoid unnecessary
duplication.
- To concentrate on providing
‘AFTER SALES’ service. Making someone Muslim is easy – but follow ups and integrating and assimilating them
is difficult.
- To foster UNITY through Da’wah
networking and co-operation for the greater good of Islam and Society.
- To set acceptable STANDARDS for
Da’wah.
- Producing new Research and Training & Teaching material to meet the changing
challenges confronting us in the field of Da’wah.
- To Motivate & Train Muslims
to make Da’wah their priority - as in the SADC region we are ONLY 2 % Muslims!!
