How
Can We Confront Intellectual Attack
Shaykh `Abdul `Aziz ibn Baz
Words of Advice Regarding Da`wah
© 1998 Al-Hidaayah
We must confront the intellectual onslaught represented in the
radio, books, newspapers, magazines and writings which the Muslim communities in
our present time have been afflicted with. The Muslim male and female spend most
of their time with such, despite the fact that they contain deadly poison and
misleading propagation most of the time. Therefore confronting this is a very
important issue if we want to protect Islaam and the Islamic culture from its
conspiracies and evil.
The da`ees and the defenders of Islaam must devote their time
in writing beneficial researches, articles, periodicals and give da`wah. They
should respond to different types of cultural attack and expose its defects and
clarify its falseness. The enemies have gathered now and are preparing all their
efforts and abilities to establish different organizations and various ways to
scheme and plot against the Muslims and deceive them.
Therefore we must counter attack these enemies. We must refute
and disapprove of their networks, expose them, and present Islaam as a faith,
belief, legal system and a social and moral system. This should be done in a way
that will make the people learn it, through good methods suitable for the age,
and with wisdom and good admonition, arguing in a way that is best. We should
use all the methods of the media, according to the resources available and our
ability.
The deen of Islaam is a complete deen, which contains all
good. It is the source of happiness for all mankind, and helps us in achieving
righteous prosperity, sound progression, security, tranquillity and a noble life
and victory in this life and in the Hereafter.
