Quran verses about Dawah http://www.kaligayahan.org/index.php/articles3/english-articles/1767-quran-verses-about-dawah http://www.kaligayahan.org/index.php/articles3/english-articles/1767-quran-verses-about-dawah Balagh1

 

Quran verses about Dawah

مَا عَلَى الرَّسُولِ إِلَّا الْبَلَاغُ وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا تُبْدُونَ وَمَا تَكْتُمُونَ (99)

Not upon the Messenger is [responsibility] except [for] notification. And Allah knows whatever you reveal

and whatever you conceal. (Al Maidah 5:99)

Doc5

Since in the Qur’an the word “da`wah” appears numerous times, only those verses that speak of or imply the preaching and spreading of Islam are dealt here. The following lines of the Qur’an contain the word “da`wah” with this connotation.

وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ ۖأُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِۖفَلْيَسْتَجِيبُوا لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُوا بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ ﴿١٨٦﴾‏

 

 

 

If some servants of mine asked you about Me, I am indeed close and I respond to the call of a suppliant if he calls upon Me. So let them respond to My (invitation), so that they believe in Me and may be on the right side.  (Al-Baqarah 2:186)

Thirty reasons to enter Paradise http://www.kaligayahan.org/index.php/articles3/english-articles/1764-thirty-reasons-to-enter-paradise http://www.kaligayahan.org/index.php/articles3/english-articles/1764-thirty-reasons-to-enter-paradise More than Thirty reasons to enter Paradise from the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah

Introduction

All praise is due to Allah, we praise Him and seek His aid and forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from the evils of our own souls and the wickedness of our deeds. He whom Allah guides, none can misguide, and he whom He misguides, none can guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, alone, without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger. This is a message entitled (Thirty Reasons for Entering Paradise) in which I have collected a number of authentic verses and hadiths that mention deeds that are a reason by the grace of Allah for the one who does them to enter Paradise. However, this does not mean that these deeds guarantee that any person who does them will enter Paradise, regardless of his belief, because Paradise is only entered by a believer. If a disbeliever or polytheist does some or all of these deeds, they will not benefit him and will not enter Paradise, because Allah, the Most High, says:

وَلَقَدْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكَ لَئِنْ أَشْرَكْتَ لَيَحْبَطَنَّ عَمَلُكَ وَلَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ  ﴿٦٥﴾‏ 

And it was already revealed to you and to those before you that if you should associate [anything] with Allah, your work would surely become worthless, and you would surely be among the losers." [Az-Zumar: 65]

 

Doc6

And Allah, the Most High, says about the disbelievers:

 

وَقَدِمْنَا إِلَىٰ مَا عَمِلُوا مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ هَبَاءً مَّنثُورًا  ﴿٢٣﴾‏

 And We will regard what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed. [Al-Furqan: 23]

 

Doc6

 

Therefore, Islam is the first condition necessary for the acceptance of any deed.

As for the second condition  that must accompany any deed in order for it to be acceptable to Allah, the Most High, is sincerity in the deed for the sake of Allah, the Most High, meaning that the one who does the deed must intend it for the sake of Allah, the Most High, without associating any other creature with him in his intention. The evidence is the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “Allah does not accept any action except that which is sincere and done for His sake.” [Narrated by al-Nasa’i, Saheeh al-Jami’ 1856]

قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: إن الله تعالى لا يقبل من العمل إلا ما كان خالصا وابتغي به وجهه [ رواه النسائي ، صحيح الجامع 1856]

As for the third condition  for the acceptance of an action, it is following the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), so we have limited ourselves in this message to the authentic hadeeths that are proven from the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).

 

وَمَن يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَالرَّسُولَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِم مِّنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَالصِّدِّيقِينَ وَالشُّهَدَاءِ وَالصَّالِحِينَ  ۚ وَحَسُنَ أُولَٰئِكَ رَفِيقًا ﴿٦٩﴾‏

 

 

 

And whoever obeys Allah and the Messenger - those will be with the ones upon whom Allah has bestowed favor of the prophets, the steadfast affirmers of truth, the martyrs and the righteous. And excellent are those as companions. Surah An-Nisa :69
