Question
I would like to know the reason for the apathy of some Muslim youth when it comes to Da‘wah. They care for political issues more than Da‘wah as we usually find that they have memorized the names of ministers, and follow all the current political issues and news bulletins, but they do not memorize any Chapter of the Quran. Could you please tell us about useful websites for Da‘wah, and point out how we can deal with such religious apathy.
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His slave and messenger.
It is the duty of every pubescent Muslim to learn what he needs to know in order to perform his acts worship properly and to learn how to deal with others in transactions; this is an individual obligation that should not be ignored.
After learning this, Muslims are required to do their best to gain knowledge, and this is a communal obligation, meaning, if it was attained by some people, others would not be sinful not to attain it. However, if no one does it, they would all be considered sinful. Such knowledge includes learning Quran interpretation, judging the narrators and Da‘wah to Allaah. All this means that the person should be aware of people’s lives, cultures, habits and circumstances. This should be done with moderation so that no one side would dominate over another that is more important. Undoubtedly, being busy with political issues while neglecting the memorization of the Quran and gaining knowledge is a clear mistake.
There are many useful websites for Da‘wah and our site is one of the most comprehensive sites which you can refer people to , and they will find al that need to know, Allaah willing.
Allaah Knows best.
