Outcomes of Da'wa Approaches During the Prophet's Makki Era and the Current Era (Comparative Analysis)

Abstract

According to the nature of man, Allah Almighty sent Prophets in every era, so that man would not have the excuse that there was no one to guide him to the straight path. Until enough resources leading to the right path are created in the world, Allah sent Messengers to different nations so that the whole world should gather on the call of the truth. Allah Almighty by His mercy sent Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as a messenger and through him gave all mankind a complete system of life that can fulfill the needs of all people in every age. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the last messenger of Allah, therefore his prophet-hood is the most unique prophethood. This prophethood is not for a particular region or nation but for the entire human race and it covers all aspects of life. All these distinctions are allocated to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH). Therefore the Prophethood of Muhammad (PBUH) was the most unique, his style of invitation to Islam and manners were also the most unique, which left their effects on the generations to come and brought about a comprehensive change in society. Also, from this Prophethood, all human beings are given the most complete manner and style of living until the resurrection day. And now the responsibility of preaching is imposed on every person to whom the message of Allah has reached to remove every obstacle in the way of righteous change in society. In this article the outcomes of da'wa approaches during the Prophet's Makki era and the current era have been analyzed comparatively.
