DAWAH THROUGH THE VARIOUS TYPES OF MEDIA
Let there arise out of you a group of people inviting to all that is good (Islam), enjoining Al-Ma`ruf (all that Islam orders) and forbidding Al-Munkar (all that Islam has forbidden). And it is they who are the successful. [ Al-Imran: 3:104] And strive hard in Allah's cause as you ought to strive. He has chosen you, and has not laid upon you in religion any hardship: it is the religion of your father Ibrahim. He has named you Muslims both before and in this (Qur'an), that the Messenger may be a witness over you and you be witnesses over mankind! So, perform the Salah, give the Zakah and hold fast to Allah. He is your Mawla, what an Excellent Mawla and what an Excellent Helper!. [Hajj: 78]

The believers, men and women, are Awliyaa (helpers, supporters, friends, protectors) of one another; they enjoin (on the people) Al-Maroof (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders one to do), and forbid (people) from Al-Munkar (i.e. polytheism and disbelief of all kinds, and all that Islam has forbidden) [al-Tawbah 9:71]
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Convey from me even if it is (only) one aayah (verse). (Narrated by al-Bukhaari) [Bukhari] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever among you sees an evil action, let him change it with his hand [by taking action]; if he cannot, then with his tongue [by speaking out]; and if he cannot, then with his heart [by at least hating it and believing that it is wrong], and that is the weakest of faith. Narrated by Muslim
Dawah Print media Audio Video Electronic Media
Print media can be classified into non-periodical and periodical Non-periodical consists of literature: pamphlets, booklets, books, etc. Periodical consists of newspaper, magazines, newsletters, etc. PRINT MEDIA
Digital Audio tapes Audio compact discs Audio cassettes Popular audio media Audio
The audio media can be used at different levels: Individual A person can listen when travelling in cars, at home, office, whi le walking, or moving. Group Audio media can be used to convey the message to a group of family members, social and cultural gatherings. Public Audio media can be utilized to reach a multitude of people through radio broadcast.
Popular video media Video cassettes Video compact Discs- VCD Digital video Discs- DVD Video media too, like audio media, can be used to convey the message to an individual or to a group of people
Electronic media or computer media is another media that can be used to convey the message to an individual or group of people. It can be used at a public level through the internet by way of web sites, homepages, bulletin boards, e-mail messages, etc. Electronic media can be stored on hard discs, diskettes or floppies, compact discs- CD ROMs, digital video discs- DVD
Retention levels of different media Research has shown that different media have different percentage of retention of the message conveyed. Retention Print media Audio Visual Video
Impact and retention of media Print media- an average person when he reads any material he remembers approximately 10% of what he has read Audio- an average person when he hears any message he remembers approximately 20% of what he has heard Visual- an average person when he sees anything he retains or remembers approximately 30% of what he has seen Video- if an average person sees and hears a particular message he remembers about 50% of what he has seen and heard. The maximum retention is in the audio-video since both the senses of sight and hearing are involved in grasping the message conveyed.
Print media, audio, video, and electronic media, are mainly modes of one-way communication (i.e. conveying the message in one direction only without interaction and clarification from the person who receives the message. It is more of a monologue than a dialogue. A very minute portion of these media can be converted into an interaction or a dialogue. For instance, a question and answer column in the periodical of the print media or a live question and answer session via the telephone, radio, television, or live chatting on the internet.
Choosing the correct mediums for each culture Average American spends many hours staring at the television. So, for the west it would be great to provide lots of Islamic channels on the satellite dish. In Arab countries, people read the newspapers or newsletters on weekly basis. It will be a good idea to have a separate page in the newsletters or the newspapers about Islamic events, teaching of the prophet (PBUH), etc. For reminding the Muslims of their duty to Islam.
RADIO PROGRAMS Muslims producing radio programs are very rare. If Islamically-oriented programming could be accomplished in areas of high Muslims concentration, then a great service will have been rendered to the Ummah and to Dawah. For instance, podcasting the Quran with translation on the airwaves, Muslim talk shows, and news from the Muslim perspective.
Good ways to make dawah! Give a subscription to an Islamic magazine to someone as a gift or donate the amount of the subscription to a dawah office. Magazine subscriptions Include brief Islamic announcements and reminders on common utility bills like telephone, water, etc. Bill advertisements Catchy Islamic saying or slogans can be printed on calendars, agendas, car windows, plastic shopping bags, etc. Islamic slogans
Good ways to make dawah! Arrange for the posting of stickers containing beneficial Islamic reminders in appropriate locations like the mosque, riding vehicles in buses, airplanes. Stickers Design post cards with attractive local scenes or land marks with brief Islamic message on the back . For example, a post card with a picture of a date farm could have on the back a Quranic reference to the water cycle. Post cards Select dawah articles from books or lectures from the tapes and reprint them as leaflets and flyers for various occasions like people going to hajj, for workers, Eid Ramadan, weddings. Leaflets and flyers
Success of the media The use of the media has become one of the most successful and beneficial means of communication in this age. This is due to its popularity and it being a weapon with two edges. If the media, such as radio, newspapers, and television, are used for giving dawah, and for guiding people to Allah and what the prophet (PBUH) has brought, then this is a great thing which can benefit the Ummah wherever they are, by the permission of Allah (SWT). It can also benefit the non-Muslims in helping them understand Islam and comprehend it, learn about its merits and know that it is the path to success in this world and in the hereafter.
Important point! It is obligatory for the daey (caller) to contribute in giving dawah in every way he can, through the use of radio, newspaper, television and in speeches giving in gatherings on Jumah as well as on other days. This can be done in all languages used by people, so that dawah and advice can reach them wherever they are in the world.
