thank you for reading
bar’ka Allah fikum

This is a delayed response– but I was delighted to hear you are already reading this book.

How do you find it?

Dont be sad

When i was in binghamton, I gave a presentation to muslims on “what to tell others about islam”.
I will send you the presentation to your email accout zaid.
This presentation might help us in our research phase.

I remember I used the story when ja3far bin abi taleb presented islam to aannajashi.
I also remembered how i put 6 major points to be memorized when people ask about islam (and it’s not the pillars of islam or the articles of faith as many people tend to think)

One of them is:

- Every deed we do is an act of worship (to touch upon the comprehensibility of islam)

remind me to send the presentation in case i became late. the thing it’s on my laptop at home. not here with me in work.

bas…. as i said i liked the idea. keep working on that.

I would like to start by suggestions if you allow me:

I do respect you all, but still to reach to this result we need to invite a well-appointed team consists initially of the following to participate to come up with something effective:

- Psychologist
- Psychiatrist
- Sociologist
- Respected Religious Man

And to start by a curricular method like the following:

- Who are our targets?
- What exactly we need to put in their mind to start with and leave the curiosity for them to look for information
- What are the targeted ages?
- Who are our targeted nations?
- What language we are going to paraphrase with
…
..

I just realized that alone i couldn’t complete my comment above so how could I come up with the TI3m (The Ingenious 3 minutes).

It is a research, no it is a great doctorate paper that really need hard efforts but the result is most great thing a human could come up with (except prophets).

I would like to be part of this if after you select a committee decides that i am eligible.

Note: Still I believe the TI3m could be found in the Holy Quran if we search intending to find it.

Thanks on behalf of all Muslims at least for the idea.

Best Regards.

Salim,

Let’s do this inshaa ALllah

DontBeSad,

Actually, I am reading this book at the moment

I stumbled upon your blog from the tag surfer.

Masha’allah your thoughts are very beneficial to read. Jazak’allah for sharing, really.

I think you will find “How to tell others about Islam” by Y. Emerick useful, its is a fantastic book.

I will certainly come back and follow this story.

May Allah give you success.

Wa alikum salaam

Don’t be sad

I very much agree with this. If we made this like our individual thesis and spent time on it to have it prepared for presentation, i believe it will take as a long way in calling people to Islam. I like this idea and would want to do this. I will suggest also a version for Muslims. What 3,5,10 minute presentation will we have to remind fellow Muslims we meet and how to at least wake them up. I will like to work on this with you…but I will need a lot of encouragement. Jazakullah Khairan.
