| Answer: There is no general formula for converting 
non-Muslims into Muslims. It varies with each case since each non-Muslim has 
different concepts or objections in his or her understanding of Islam. So the 
best thing is to begin by asking them about what they think about Islam and then 
try to clear their doubts. Moreover, it is of paramount importance that instead 
of showing an antagonistic behaviour towards them, Muslims should try to present 
the teachings of Islam in a lucid and articulate manner. They should think of 
ways and means to communicate the true message of Islam and refrain from 
policing and threatening non-Muslims. Like true preachers, they should invest 
their time in thinking of ways and means to earnestly call people to the truth. 
Their preaching should have a humble tone, and they should deal very 
affectionately and amicably with non-Muslims.  What you can also do is to ignite the flame for the quest 
of truth found in every human being by urging people to be sincere and earnest 
seekers of the truth. You can also draw their attention to the basic issues 
which stare man in his face – perhaps the greatest of which is: ‘What will 
happen when we die’. |
