US Teleconference

US Teleconference

To spread the Al-Quran Mission worldwide, Maulana Sahab has started addressing Dayees in the USA through teleconferencing that is being organized by Khwaja Kaleemuddin Sahab. On 6th June, 2010 the talk was on ‘How to do effective dawah work in Western society’. In his talk Maulana Sahab has said, ‘Muslims in the west are playing eastern games in western court’. By this he meant that the Muslims in the West are not trying to read the western mind and undertake dawah work, but are just acting on their eastern mindset. Due to this they have not realized that people in the West are dissatisfied spiritually, ‘They are looking for another version of Truth’. He advised Muslims in the West to utilize this opportunity and present Islam to them in the scientific idiom and they will surely welcome it. As a result of this advice, Khwaja Kaleemuddin has written: Following your advice on “How to do an effective Dawah work in Western Society” during our teleconference monthly meeting of CPS-USA, I decided to go to a Church to meet with the Pastor to have an exchange of Ideas. I called up one of my Christian friends who goes to a Greek Orthodox Church and told him that I would like to go to his Church with him today and meet with the Pastor at the end of the Church services. So I went to the Church along with him and met with the Pastor today and at the end of the services. At the end of our talk I presented him with “The Quran Translation” and “The Prophet of Peace”. Amazingly, he was not only happy to receive these books; he even offered me two things. One, he asked me to bring more books to keep them in the Church library so that his members have an access to read those books and second, he would invite me to give a lecture on Islam to his Church audience in fall season. Allahu Akbar, this experience of mine confirms what you said during your short talk yesterday that we must shed our hesitation and meet with the various “Intelligentsia” of the society. You are right that they are truly very receptive. In view of this experience, I urge all CPS members here in USA to experiment what I did today and continue doing for the rest of the life.
