قرآن کا اسلوب دعوت اور معاشرے پر اس کے اثرات

Human is a combination of a body and soul, in which body is nurtured by means of energy that is present around the world, but regarding soul, he has not provide nourishment in this world. For his soul’s nourishment, Allah has revealed prophets from Adam Alehi Salaam to Muhammad Sallallaho Alaehi Wasallam with books, these books are with different methodologies, as creator knows that there is no definite way which can appeal human mind and soul. God manifested the color of love in psalm through songs, instructions have been given through stories in Touraat and Bible has proven it be the best model of proverbs. Quran which is the last revelation of God, combined all above ways to open the door to soul. It has reflection of David’s songs, Glory of Moses and divine glance of Maseeh (P.B.U.T) it has restrictions of Sharia laws and spirituality. Aim of Holy Quran is just not to conquer the opponent by logical argument but it open his heart for right path - for this reason the book itself explained way to call the people towards Islam. It says call people to the way with wisdom and fair of exhortation and reason with them in the best possible way. These rules are only effective when followed with love and well-wishing which is shown through soft and lenient tone. In this article, I have discussed concept and need of Dawat, basic pillars and etiquettes in the light of Holy Quran and Hadith.
