Alhamdulillah, Interactive Dakwah and Tarbiyah (IDT) successfully held the Contemporary Dawah Course, a two-day program aimed at helping 20 participants understand Islam better and gain the confidence to share its message in a wise and meaningful way. The course gathered enthusiastic individuals who wanted to learn how to present Islamic values clearly and effectively in today’s world, especially when facing modern challenges and different audiences.

The Learning Journey

From the very first session, the atmosphere was filled with energy, curiosity, and thoughtful discussion. Participants delved into how Islam addresses contemporary issues while maintaining its timeless principles of justice, mercy, and balance.

Bro Lim Jooi Soon, an experienced daie and IDT trainer, guided participants through several impactful sessions on strengthening da’wah skills — including how to communicate Islam with confidence, address common questions from the public, and share the message of Islam with wisdom and compassion.

Ustaz Amin Yaacob, another IDT trainer, shared valuable insights on understanding diverse faith perspectives and promoting respectful dialogue. His sessions helped participants develop the ability to explain Islamic teachings with clarity and kindness.

By the end of the program, participants were not only equipped with knowledge but also the confidence to engage in meaningful conversations, respond to difficult questions, and convey Islam’s message with compassion and wisdom.

IDT’s Hope for the Future

For IDT, the Contemporary Dawah Course was not just another training program. It was a journey of reflection, growth, and empowerment. IDT hopes that every participant will continue to build upon what they have learned, becoming voices of truth and compassion in their own communities. IDT believes that true da’wah begins with understanding, sincerity, and the courage to engage with people where they are. Through programs like this, participants not only gain knowledge but also learn the art of presenting Islam with empathy, clarity, and relevance to the realities of modern life.

WANGSA MAJU, 29 September 2025 – Interactive Dakwah and Tarbiyah (IDT) was honoured to receive an official visit from Professor Dr. Asyraf Isyraqi bin Jamil, Deputy Rector of Research and Global Networks from Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin (UniSIRAJ). The meeting, held at IDT Centre, aimed to explore potential collaboration in Islamic education, research, and international student development.

The meeting focused on exploring future collaboration between IDT and UNISIRAJ in strengthening Islamic education — making it more accessible, practical, and internationally recognized. Representing IDT were Bro Lim Jooi Soon (President), Bro Naim Ahmad (General Manager), and Ustaz Mohd Abdullah (Education Manager).

Discussion on Educational and Da’wah Collaboration

A constructive discussion was held between Interactive Dakwah & Tarbiyah (IDT) and Professor Dr. Asyraf to explore potential collaboration in diploma programmes and da’wah initiatives. Both sides exchanged views on strengthening Islamic education through structured academic pathways and community-based engagement. The meeting also highlighted the shared aspiration to develop programmes that combine academic excellence, practical da’wah experience, and international outreach, particularly in empowering Muslim communities worldwide. Both sides also discussed the potential for a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to formalize the partnership and the possibility of official endorsement from UNISIRAJ for IDT programmes.

Shared Vision and Hopes

During the meeting, Prof. Dr. Asyraf Isyraqi emphasized that Islamic education should not remain only at the level of theory. He explained that true learning happens when knowledge is practiced and lived. Students should be able to apply what they learn with sincerity, wisdom, and purpose, becoming individuals who think critically, act with integrity, and contribute positively to the ummah.

From IDT, Bro Lim Jooi Soon shared his vision for a collaboration that brings together ‘ilm (knowledge) and ‘amal (action). He expressed his hope that this partnership will nurture both local and international students to become confident and sincere da’wah leaders who serve their communities wholeheartedly.

Both IDT and UNISIRAJ share the same aspiration to develop a new generation of Muslim scholars and leaders who uphold Islamic values, respond wisely to modern challenges, and bring lasting benefit to the ummah and society.

4–5 October 2025 | Dawah Academy International Hall, Wangsa Maju

Alhamdulillah, the Klinik Solat organized by Interactive Dakwah & Tarbiyah (IDT) was successfully held over two meaningful days at Dawah Academy International Hall, Wangsa Maju. The response was beyond expectation, with 78 participants joining actively. The hall was filled with enthusiasm, reflection, and a strong desire to improve in both knowledge and practice. Participants came from diverse backgrounds, united by a common goal, which is to rediscover salah as a true connection with Allah that brings peace, focus, and strength in daily life.

The first day, led by Ustazah Nurshahirah, featured two impactful sessions:

  • Jamak & Qasar Prayers: Understanding their differences, types, and conditions, as well as rulings related to travelling and Friday prayers. Many shared that this session cleared long-standing confusion, helping them perform these prayers correctly.

  • Praying for the Sick: A touching discussion on the concessions Islam provides for those unwell, showing how Islam is a religion of mercy and ease.

The second day, conducted by Ustaz Mustafar Suki, continued with hands-on learning:

  • The Proper Way of Performing Wudu’: Step-by-step guidance based on the Sunnah, allowing participants to identify and correct common mistakes.
  • Basic Fiqh of Salah: Covering the 13 pillars, conditions of obligation and validity, and rulings of sutrah through clear explanations and live demonstrations.

The program closed on a thoughtful note as participants shared what they had gained. Many realised that Klinik Solat was not merely about learning the steps of prayer, but about rediscovering its purpose. Each person left with a quiet determination to make their salah more mindful and sincere. IDT hopes that the lessons learned will nurture more khushu‘, understanding, and peace in every salah. The participants also shared encouraging feedback, expressing how the sessions helped them improve their understanding and confidence in performing prayer.

WANGSA MAJU, 24–25 September 2025 – Interactive Dakwah and Tarbiyah (IDT) warmly welcomed 33 teenagers aged 13 to 18 from various schools across Wangsa Maju and Kuala Lumpur for Kursus Aspirasi Remaja 2025. From the very start, the atmosphere was bright and lively, as participants arrived full of curiosity, hope, and a desire to learn, connect, and grow.

Over the two days, the program focused on building a strong Muslim identity, strengthening faith, and helping youths gain clarity in navigating today’s challenges. The sessions explored a wide range of thought-provoking topics, including Islam and Muslim identity, the beauty of fitrah, Creator vs Creation (CvC), the authenticity of the Qur’an, the history of Christianity, as well as Chinese beliefs, festivals, and cultures. Important discussions on shirk and heresy were also included, giving participants deeper understanding and awareness.

The course was guided by a team of inspiring mentors: Brother Lim Jooi Soon, Ustaz Amin Yaacob, Ustaz Mohd Abdullah, Brother Ashraf Azhar, Brother Adam, and Ustazah Siti Hajar, each bringing their own style to the sessions. Their engaging delivery made learning interactive, memorable, and easy to relate to for the teenagers.

Beyond talks, the program was filled with quizzes, group activities, and lucky draws that brought laughter and excitement. Shared meals including breakfast, morning tea, lunch, and evening tea helped create a warm, comfortable atmosphere, fostering friendships and teamwork among the participants.

As the course drew to a close, many participants expressed feeling more connected to their faith, to their peers and to themselves. They left with e-certificates, lasting memories, and a renewed spirit to face life ahead. The lucky draw awarding 10 exciting prizes added a joyful highlight, ending the program on a cheerful note. Group photos captured these special moments, preserving memories that will be cherished for years to come.

Alhamdulillah, Kursus Aspirasi Remaja 2025 was more than a program, it was a meaningful journey that gave young Muslims confidence, hope, and a vaccine for ill influence out there. IDT hopes that the knowledge, experiences, and friendships gained will continue to guide these youths in staying strong in faith, growing in wisdom, and preparing them to become future leaders and a source of strength for the ummah.

Wangsa Maju, Malaysia | September 2025

Alhamdulillah, the Deen Reloading sessions continued throughout September with consistent attendance of around 15 to 30 participants every Tuesday night. More than just classes, these weekly gatherings became a place for reflection, learning, and spiritual renewal. Participants explored key aspects of Islamic faith and practice, gaining both knowledge and personal insight.

The first session, Islam, Muslim and Fitrah by Bro Lim Jooi Soon, reminded everyone that Islam is the natural way of life that fits the human nature. He explained how every person is born with an inclination toward the Creator and how recognizing this fitrah helps one distinguish between the Creator and creation.

The second session, The Pillars of Faith and Islam by Ustaz Mohd Abdullah, covered the foundations of belief and worship, highlighting how the six pillars of faith and five pillars of Islam bring structure, meaning, and mercy to a Muslim’s life. He focused on the significance of Hajj and Umrah, explaining their spiritual depth and connection to the history of Islam.

In the third and fourth sessions, Living the Pillars of Islam and The Spirit Behind the Pillars, Bro Lim reminded participants that the pillars of Islam are not just rituals but spiritual training that builds character, sincerity, and compassion. True worship, he emphasized, should touch the heart and strengthen one’s relationship with Allah and the community.

The final session, A Journey to Islam, was personal and touching. Bro Lim shared his own story of discovering Islam — the struggles, questions, and peace that came with his shahadah. His story reminded everyone that Allah guides hearts in different ways and that each person’s journey to faith is a sign of His mercy.

Overall, the September sessions of Deen Reloading offered both knowledge and heartfelt reflection. From learning about faith and worship to hearing a story of personal transformation, participants left with a stronger sense of iman, a renewed purpose, and a clearer understanding of Islam as a way of life. At IDT, we hope that every participant leaves these sessions with a stronger sense of iman, a renewed purpose, and the confidence to practice Islam with sincerity. Our vision is to nurture Muslims who live their faith fully in worship, in daily actions, and in their role as part of the wider community.

WANGSA MAJU, 6 September 2025 – Interactive Dakwah and Tarbiyah (IDT) organized a special lecture under the Celebrate Knowledge Series entitled Srikandi Islam: Teladan Wanita dalam Sirah. The program, held at Dawah Academy International Hall, brought together 51 participants eager to rediscover the timeless legacy of Muslim women whose stories continue to inspire faith and courage.

The lecture was delivered by Dr. Jefri Irwan Harris, Deputy Chairman of IDT, on Saturday evening from 8:30 to 10:30 PM. Through captivating storytelling, he highlighted the exemplary lives of three remarkable women in Islamic history: Umm Waraqah, Asma’ bint Abu Bakr, and Umm Ayman.

Umm Waraqah – The Martyr at Home

Known as a woman of wealth, knowledge, and devotion, Umm Waraqah approached the Prophet ﷺ before the Battle of Badr with the wish to attain martyrdom. The Prophet ﷺ prophesied that she would indeed achieve it, though not on the battlefield.

She dedicated her life to the Qur’an, worship, and night prayers until she was eventually remembered as Ash-Shahida (the Martyr).

Asma’ bint Abu Bakr – The Woman of Two Belts

In the tense moments of the Prophet’s ﷺ migration to Madinah, Asma’ demonstrated extraordinary courage. She carried provisions to the Cave of Thur, tearing her waistband in two to tie the supplies.

This act of bravery earned her the title Zat al-Nitaqayn (the Woman of Two Belts). Beyond her courage, she was also known for her eloquence and narration of hadith.

Umm Ayman – A Mother After My Mother

Once a servant, Barakah al-Habashiyyah, or Umm Ayman, was embraced by the Prophet ﷺ as family. After the passing of his parents, he regarded her as a mother figure, saying:

“She is my mother after my own mother.”

Her faith and sacrifice earned her a lasting place among the honoured women of Islam.

Their lives teach us:

  • Courage is found not only in war but in knowledge and worship.
  • Sacrifice can take many forms — from provisions for a journey to lifelong service.
  • Faith and sincerity are the true measures of honour, beyond status or lineage.

Through this program, participants were reminded that the role of women in Islam is far from passive. They have always been pioneers, teachers, and protectors of the faith.

With these lessons, IDT hopes that Muslims today, both men and women, will draw renewed strength from the legacy of these heroines. Their stories are a source of inspiration for us to live with deeper faith, greater resilience, and sincere devotion to Allah. May future generations continue to carry this light forward, walking the path of knowledge, courage, and sacrifice.

Alhamdulillah, Interactive Dakwah and Tarbiyah (IDT), in collaboration with Majlis Ugama Islam dan Adat Resam Melayu Pahang (MUIP), successfully organized the 2nd Batch of DawahPro Fundamental Orang Asli from 13–17 September 2025 at Dawah Academy International, Wisma IDT, Kuala Lumpur. The five-day training gathered 28 participants for an intensive program aimed at strengthening Islamic understanding and da’wah skills. Guided by Bro Lim Jooi Soon and Ustaz Amin Yaacob, participants engaged in interactive lessons, quizzes, and presentations — culminating in a closing ceremony attended by Tuan Haji Mohd Ali bin Mat Dasir and Chris Lim from MUIP. The program celebrated top performers including Susila binti Abdullah, who won both 1st Place and Best Presenter. This meaningful collaboration continues to empower the Orang Asli community with knowledge, confidence, and a stronger commitment to da’wah.

The Learning Journey

The five days were filled with energy, interaction, and discovery. Each session ended with a short quiz to encourage focus and participation. Marks were collected based on quizzes, attendance, attitude, and presentations — not just for memorizing facts, but to nurture discipline, teamwork, and commitment.

The training covered a wide range of essential da’wah topics, guided by experienced IDT trainers, Bro Lim Jooi Soon and Ustaz Amin Yaacob. Throughout the sessions, participants deepened their understanding of the core principles of Islam and faith, explored interfaith dynamics, and learned practical methods for conveying Islam in a way that is clear, respectful, and relevant to different audiences. The trainers also shared insights on contemporary issues often discussed in dialogues with non-Muslims, providing participants with both the knowledge and the skills to respond wisely and confidently. By the end of the program, the participants not only strengthened their foundation in Islamic knowledge but also gained the ability to communicate the message of Islam with wisdom, empathy, and professionalism. To make the experience even more engaging, the third day featured a group presentation session where participants were divided into four teams. Each group showcased creativity, teamwork, and spirit, making the learning atmosphere lively and enjoyable. Small prizes were given to appreciate their effort and enthusiasm.

The Final Day

The final day marked the highlight of the week. In the morning, every participant presented individually on the theme Creator vs Creation (CvC) — for many, it was their first time speaking before an audience. Despite their nervousness, their sincerity and courage stood out, reflecting the personal growth they achieved in just five days. The Closing Ceremony followed in the afternoon, attended by Tuan Haji Mohd Ali bin Mat Dasir, Director of the Islamic Management and Development Division of MUIP, and Chris Lim, MUIP’s Da’wah Officer. Their presence showed MUIP’s continued support for da’wah development among the Orang Asli.

Celebrating Excellence

The ceremony was filled with joy and gratitude as participants’ dedication was acknowledged. Every participant received a certificate of participation, while outstanding performers were honored with special awards:

1st Place: Susila binti Abdullah

2nd Place: Nur Syaidatul Izzati bt Bah Him

3rd Place: Nur Ayra Haniyah binti Bah Jat

Susila also received the Best Presenter Award for her clarity and confidence, making it a double celebration of her dedication and growth.

In his closing remarks, Bro Lim Jooi Soon reminded the participants that the training was not the end, but the beginning of their real da’wah journey that continues within their villages, families, and communities. Tuan Haji Mohd Ali also praised their commitment and encouraged them to apply what they had learned with patience, humility, and compassion.

IDT’s Hope for the Future

For IDT, DawahPro Fundamental Orang Asli Batch 13 was more than just a training program. It was a meaningful journey of learning, reflection, and personal growth. Over the five days, participants strengthened their faith, gained practical knowledge, and developed the courage to stand as ambassadors of Islam. IDT hopes that each participant will bring this spirit back to their communities—spreading knowledge, building confidence, and sharing Islam with sincerity and compassion. With every new batch, the seeds of da’wah continue to take root and grow stronger among the Orang Asli, bringing guidance and light to future generations.

WANGSA MAJU, 2 September 2025 — On Tuesday morning, a team from Islamic Outreach ABIM (IOA), led by Dr Abdul Halim El-Muhammady, visited Interactive Dakwah & Tarbiyah (IDT). They were welcomed by Brother Lim Jooi Soon, President of IDT, together with Ustaz Mohd, the Education Manager, and Brother Ashraf, the Dakwah and PR Officer.

The visit was held from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM to discuss how both organisations can work together to spread Islam’s message more widely.

Sharing Experiences

The IOA team shared their past activities such as hospital visits, mosque programmes, and community work. These efforts have built their reputation in da’wah.

However, one area is still new to them — street da’wah. The idea of reaching people on the streets, in public spaces, and even among tourists in Kuala Lumpur created excitement among both teams.

Training for Future Da’ies

Both sides agreed that training new da’ies is important. IOA suggested creating a proper training path, and IDT offered to guide using their experience.

The plan would include:

  • Comparative Religion – building knowledge.
  • Da’wah Techniques – learning how to engage.
  • Advanced Techniques – handling deeper questions.
  • Field Practice – real-life street da’wah.

They also talked about a Muallaf Handling Course. This would support new Muslims after embracing Islam by teaching them prayer, basic faith, and connecting them with a caring community.

Moving Forward

Before leaving, both groups took a photo together as a sign of friendship and teamwork.

The meeting ended with the hope that by working together, IOA and IDT can reach more people, guide future dai’es, and share Islam’s message with wisdom and care. IDT also expressed its hope that this partnership will not only strengthen da’wah efforts but also build a supportive network for new Muslims, ensuring they grow with knowledge, confidence, and a strong connection to the ummah.

Dalam agama Islam, bagi setiap pengharaman perlu ada nas yang jelas, sama ada nas tersebut dipetik daripada ayat al-Quran atau sunnah Nabi s.a.w untuk membuktikan larangan sesuatu perkara.

Begitu juga dalam soal menjawab persoalan yang berkaitan dengan sama ada orang bukan Islam boleh menyentuh dan membaca al-Quran. Terdapat dua pandangan yang dikemukakan di kalangan para ulama dalam menguraikan sama ada mushaf al-Quran dalam bahasa Arab boleh disentuh oleh orang bukan Islam.

Pendapat pertama ialah, ada diantara para ulama yang melarang(mengharamkan) orang bukan Islam untuk menyentuh mushaf al-Quran. Mereka berpandangan demikian berdasarkan dalil-dalil yang terdapat di dalam al-Quran.

Surah At-Taubah: 28; “Hai orang-orang yang beriman, sesungguhnya orang-orang musyrik adalah najis…” Dengan ini, sebahagian ulama berpendapat bahawa orang musyrik itu tidak boleh menyentuh al-Quran kerana mereka dianggap najis.

Bagaimanapun, dalam Tafsir Fi Zhilalil Quran (Sayyid Qutb) jilid 5 m/s 314-315 dinyatakan hakikatnya pernyataan ayat itu tidak menggambarkan maksud ‘najis’ itu secara zahir atau fizikal mereka, melainkan merujuk kepada jiwa mereka yang tidak berpegang kepada ajaran Islam.

Al-Waqiah: 77-79; “Sesungguhnya al-Quran adalah bacaan yang sangat mulia, dalam kitab yang terpelihara (Lauhul Mahfuzh), tidak yang menyentuhnya kecuali orang-orang yang disucikan.” Sekali lagi, sesetengah ulama berpegang kepada hujan ini dan menegaskan bahawa orang-orang bukan Islam yang tidak suci itu tidak boleh menyentuh al Quran.

Sungguhpun begitu di dalam Tafsir Fi Zhilalil Quran (Sayyid Qutb) jilid 11 m/s 147, dinyatakan ayat berkenaan sebenarnya untuk menerangkan kepada kaum Musyrikin yang mendakwa pada masa itu, bahawa al-Quran itu diturunkan oleh syaitan. Allah menjelaskan bahawa sesungguhnya al-Quran (Lauhul Mahfuzh) itu tidak mungkin disentuh oleh syaitan kerana ianya disimpan dalam ilmu dan pemeliharaan Allah, dan hanya diturunkan kepada malaikat yang bersifat suci.

Kisah mengenai Sayidina Umar yang dipaksa oleh adiknya untuk membasuh tangan sebelum beliau menyentuh al-Quran. Kisah ini dijadikan dalil bagi sesetengah pihak untuk melarang orang bukan Islam daripada menyentuh al-Quran atas alasan mereka tidak suci. Perkara ini sebenarnya tidak boleh digunakan sebagai hujjah, dengan mencuci tangan tidak akan menyucikan jiwa mahupun fizikal orang bukan Islam itu. Apatah lagi ini hanya kata-kata adik Saidina Umar, dan bukan daripada Nabi Muhammad s.a.w.

Pendapat kedua pula, ada diantara para ulama yang mengharuskan orang bukan Islam untuk menyentuh mushaf al-Quran. Golongan ulama yang mengharuskan orang bukan Islam memegang dan membaca al-Quran membuat keputusan itu berdasarkan hujjah dan dalil-dalil yang terdapat di dalam al-Quran.

Surah AN-NISA’: 82: “Patutkah mereka (bersikap demikian), tidak mahu memikirkan isi al-Quran? Kalaulah al-Quran itu (datangnya) bukan dari sisi Allah, nescaya mereka akan dapati perselisihan yang banyak di dalamnya.”

Persoalan di sini al-Quran sebenarnya diturunkan kepada seluruh umat Manusia atau hanya kepada umat Islam. Di dalam surah al-Kahfi: 54, Allah s.w.t berfirman; “Dan demi sesungguhnya Kami telah huraikan dengan berbagai-bagai cara di dalam al-Quran ini untuk umat manusia, daripada segala jenis contoh bandingan; dan sememangnya manusia itu, sejenis makhluk yang banyak sekali bantahannya.”

Begitu juga dalam surah Ibrahim: 1; “Alif, Laam, Raa. Ini adalah kitab (al-Quran) Kami turunkan dia kepadamu (wahai Muhammad), supaya engkau mengeluarkan umat manusia seluruhnya daripada gelap gelita kufur kepada cahaya iman – dengan izin Tuhan mereka – ke jalan Allah Yang Maha Kuasa, lagi Maha Terpuji.”

Dalam al-Quran, ada banyak ayat di mana Allah s.w.t mencabar bukan Islam supaya menulis kitab lain yang setanding dengan al-Quran sekiranya mereka mampu. Contohnya, di dalam surah al-Baqarah: 23; “Dan kalau kamu ada menaruh syak tentang apa yang Kami turunkan (al-Quran) kepada hamba kami (Muhammad), maka cubalah buat dan datangkanlah satu surah yang sebanding dengan al-Quran itu, dan panggillah orang-orang yang kamu percaya boleh menolong kamu selain daripada Allah, jika betul kamu orang-orang yang benar.”

Dalam surah Huud: 13; “Bukan itu sahaja kata-kata mereka bahkan mereka menuduh dengan mengatakan: ‘la (Muhammad) yang mereka-reka al-Quran itu!’ Katakanlah (wahai Muhammad): (Jika demikian tuduhan kamu), maka cubalah buat serta datangkan sepuluh surah rekaan yang sebanding dengan al-Quran itu, dan panggillah siapa sahaja yang kamu sanggup memanggilnya, yang lain daripada Allah, jika betul kamu orang-orang yang benar.”

Surah Yunus: 38; “(Orang-orang kafir tidak mengakui hakikat yang demikian itu) bahkan mereka mengatakan: ‘Dialah (Muhammad) yang mengada-adakan al-Quran menurut rekaannya.’ Katakanlah (wahai Muhammad): ‘Kalau demikian, datangkanlah satu surah yang sebanding dengan al-Quran itu, dan panggilah siapa sahaja yang kamu dapat memanggilnya, yang lain daripada Allah (untuk membantu kamu), jika betul kamu orang-orang yang benar!”.”

An-Nisaa: 82: “Patutkah mereka (bersikap demikian), tidak mahu memikirkan isi al-Quran? Kalaulah al-Quran itu (datangnya) bukan dari sisi Allah, nescaya mereka akan dapati perselisihan yang banyak di dalamnya.” Bagaimana orang bukan Islam akan menyahut cabaran-cabaran ini jika mereka tidak boleh mengakses kandungan al-Quran?

Persoalan seterusnya ialah mengenai orang Arab yang bukan Islam, yang hanya mengetahui bahasa Arab saja. Sekiranya mereka ingin membaca al-Quran, apakah jenis al-Quran yang kita harus beri? Bahasa Melayu, Cina, Inggeris atau Arab? Tentunya al-Quran dalam bahasa Arab!

Mari kita renung-renungkan. Rasulullah s.a.w dan para sahabat bertungkus-lumus untuk menyebarkan mesej al-Quran supaya semua umat manusia diberi peluang untuk mengenali ajaran Islam. Namun sebaliknya pada hari ini, ada sesetengah pihak yang mengambil sikap kononnya ‘memelihara kesucian’ al-Quran dengan mengharamkan orang bukan Islam menyentuh dan membaca mushaf al-Quran.

Sebenarnya kita tidak perlu risau tentang kesucian al-Quran itu kerana Allah telah berjanji bahawa “Sesungguhnya Kamilah yang menurunkan al-Quran, dan Kamilah yang memelihara dan menjaganya.” (Al-Hijr: 9)

Ada juga ulama yang berpendapat dengan menyatakan bahawa orang bukan Islam hanya boleh menyentuh kitab terjemahan al-Quran dan bukan mushaf yang berbahasa Arab.

Saya ingin mengutarakan persoalan: Semasa hidupnya Rasulullah s.a.w sering kali menulis surat kepada ketua-ketua pemerintah bukan Islam. Surat-surat tersebut mengandungi ayat-ayat suci al-Quran yang sudah tentunya di dalam bahasa Arab. Tujuan Baginda ialah untuk menjemput mereka memeluk agama Islam. Antara raja yang pernah Baginda utuskan surat adalah Heraclius.

Sekiranya pemimpin-pemimpin bukan Islam dahulu boleh memegang dan membaca surat yang mengandungi al-Quran, mengapa mereka tidak boleh memegang keseluruhan mushaf al-Quran?

WANGSA MAJU, 24 July 2025 — The Interactive Dakwah and Tarbiyah (IDT) welcomed four representatives from the India Dawah Centre Association (AIDCA) for a few memorable hours together. The delegation was led by Muhammad Ali Shoaib, AIMIM District President, together with Ilyas Khan, Founder Member of AIDCA and State Manager of KIDCA, as well as his students, Abrar Anjum Khan and Mohammed Ayan.

During the exchange, AIDCA shared their observation that many da’wah discussions tend to drift away from the core message, often getting sidetracked into cultural debates or minor differences. Both sides agreed that when reaching out to those new to Islam, the focus should remain on the heart of the message — the Oneness of God and the role of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as the last messenger. They also stressed the need for better training for da’ies, combining sincerity with effective tools, relatable language, and practical methods.

Bro. Lim Jooi Soon introduced some of IDT’s approaches, including the CvC (Creator vs Creation) method, a world religions comparison banner, and a Prophets’ genealogy chart.

Bro. Lim Jooi Soon introduced some of IDT’s approaches, including the CvC (Creator vs Creation) method, a world religions comparison banner, and a Prophets’ genealogy chart.

The AIDCA team, in turn, shared their experiences from India’s diverse religious landscape, highlighting that da’wah resonates most when it addresses real social issues like poverty, injustice, and dowry, showing how Islam offers compassionate and practical solutions.

The afternoon also included a taste of Malaysian hospitality, with nasi lemak, pulut panggang, roti jala, and fresh mangosteen served alongside the sharing of ideas.

By the end of the session, both parties agreed on concrete follow-ups, from developing training modules and sharing tools, to adapting outreach for local cultures and languages.

As Bro. Lim reminded everyone in his final remarks:

⁠“Our duty is to convey the message — not to convert. Da’wah isn’t about debates or winning arguments, it’s about reaching hearts with wisdom and compassion.”

The visit concluded with a tour of IDT’s facilities, ending on a warm note and a shared commitment to da’wah that is authentic, respectful, and impactful across borders.
