If you translate the Arabic word ‘Dawah’ it means “to invite” or “an offer to share”. When you use this word in conjunction with the Holy Quran or the Islamic religion, it signifies the responsibility of every Muslim to propose Islam to another human being. It is the noble call that all Muslims must answer; they should strive to bring every human being under the One True God, that is, Allah. You will find there are proper and strict methodologies laid down in the Holy Quran for Dawah, the process of extending an invitation to another human to join Islam. You may find lots of discourses in Dawah Books Online on this matter.

You can relate this activity to your understanding, purifying and clarifying your thoughts regarding Allah and Islam. There are many Islamic Dawah books which you may refer to understand Quran and its teachings regarding Dawah. Muslims who are willing to undertake this pious and dignified task must follow these priorities broadly divided into two categories as appended.

Tawheed

This is the principle of the “One True God” in Islam. This belief is the foundation upon which the Muslims base their Islamic way of life. Tawheed means the realization and maintenance of the One God status of Allah in any and all actions that relate to him directly and indirectly. You need to believe firmly that Allah is alone and without subordinates and associates; there is no rival of Allah and no partner to share his Divinity. Only if you believe in the oneness of Allah yourself then you can strive to bring the non-believers to the righteous path of Islam. You will find lots of Dawah literature and Dawah books online to help in your understanding.

Strengthening of Belief

You need to reinforce and strengthen his belief by having profound faith in Allah. This will lead you towards righteous action; you can impart Dawah once you as a person follow the teachings of Quran whole-heartedly. Rather than organizing lectures, distributing Islamic Dawah Pamphlets or spending money, you should concentrate on faith alone. You should study and propagate the true Islamic faith, its benefits, signs and realities. Then you should understand about ‘Shirk’ and disbelief. ‘Shirk’ is the practice of polytheism or associating partners while worshipping to Allah. You should follow Quran and its teachings, not just use it as recital book and a talisman. Reading Islamic Dawah books will help you in clearing up doubts; you may also consult Islamic scholars for any doubts and its resolution.
