0:08 Brail TV. 0:16 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious 0:17 , the Most Merciful. I greet you all 0:21 with the Islamic greeting. A blessed 0:25 greeting from Allah. Peace be upon you, 0:28 and Allah's mercy and blessings. 0:30 And peace be upon you, and Allah's 0:32 mercy and blessings. 0:37 All praise is due to Allah, we praise 0:39 Him, seek His help, and ask for His 0:40 forgiveness. And we seek refuge in 0:45 Allah from the evils of our own selves 0:47 and from our bad deeds. Whoever Allah 0:52 guides, none can misguide. And whoever 0:57 He misguides, none can guide. And 1:02 whoever Allah does not grant light, for 1:03 him there is no light. I bear witness 1:07 that there is no god but Allah, alone, 1:09 without partner. And I bear witness 1:12 that Muhammad is His servant and 1:14 messenger. May Allah's blessings and 1:17 peace be upon him. And upon his family, 1:22 his companions, and those who follow 1:24 him. To proceed. Allah the Almighty 1:32 said. In His firm revelation, and He is 1:37 the truest of speakers. I seek refuge 1:42 in Allah from the accursed Satan. And 1:48 We have not sent you. Except to all of 1:53 mankind. As a bringer of good news and 1:56 a warner. But most of the people do not 2:00 know. Truthful is Allah the Great. I 2:08 respect all the management of 2:10 Darussalam Mosque, Kota Wisata. And all 2:16 the management and committee of the 2:19 Mualaf Fes. Darussalam Mosque. Kota 2:26 Wisata, which many of the. Committee 2:33 members are actually from Sunda Kelapa, 2:35 yes. Sharing with Darussalam. My 2:43 friends, the. Muhtadin, those who have 2:48 received guidance from Allah Subhanahu 2:51 wa ta'ala. Especially today, we are 2:56 visited by Christology experts from 2:59 East Java. There is Ustadz Mashud, SM, 3:03 who is no stranger to us. There is the 3:07 son of the late Abdullah Wasian, Ustadz 3:10 Eib. And many other figures, the. 3:18 Drivers of Christology da'wah. Dr. Gigi 3:22 Karisah has just delivered something 3:25 extraordinary about the approach of 3:29 prayer movements viewed from a medical 3:33 science perspective. Extraordinary. He 3:37 is also a respected convert figure in 3:40 the country today. My brothers and 3:43 sisters whom I love for the sake of 3:45 Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala. Kaifa 3:47 asbahtum jami '? How are you all this 3:51 morning? 3:53 Is everyone healthy? 3:55 Alhamdulillah. Why are there more women 3:58 than men here? Huh? Why? Is it. Because 4:07 the number of women is higher now than 4:09 men? Very well. I hear there are also 4:13 converts from out of town, is that 4:15 right? Some from Manado, some from 4:18 Kalimantan, from Bali, and various 4:20 others. Yes. Alhamdulillah, I really 4:25 appreciate this Mualaf Fes program, 4:29 especially Darussalam Mosque and also 4:34 Sunda Kelapa, who we have always 4:38 collaborated with in organizing events 4:42 like this. It has become a routine, 4:47 especially Sunda Kelapa, which was the 4:49 first to organize this kind of Mualaf 4:52 Fes event. Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah 4:55 . Right, I don't want to prolong the 4:59 introduction because the time is short, 5:01 only 50 minutes for me. By the way, do 5:05 you know me yet? 5:08 Huh? 5:09 Not yet? Why not? We just met. Just met 5:15 . 5:16 Alhamdulillah. But you already know the 5:19 name, right? What was the name earlier? 5:23 Huh? Nababan. Nababan is not the name. 5:28 Nababan is a clan name. Can you guess 5:31 where I'm from? I'm from East Java, 5:33 Central Java originally. 5:35 Huh? 5:36 West Java. 5:38 Ah, where from? 5:42 Well, some say from TB. What is Toba? 5:49 Toba has an abbreviation, a full form. 5:51 Place of the original Batak people. 5:54 Well, that's what Toba is called. 5:57 Alright, I was given the material on 6:03 da'wah methods to non-Muslims. Like 6:08 that. Before I get into this material, 6:13 for those who don't know, for those who 6:15 aren't familiar, I would like to inform 6:18 you, alhamdulillah, I have established 6:25 six boarding schools for converts 6:27 across Indonesia, two are in Bintaro, 6:30 boarding schools for male and female 6:33 converts. So for people who come from 6:37 other religions to convert to Islam. I 6:39 educate them, I send them to high 6:41 school, and to university. Then there 6:46 are those in Bogor, and three in NTT. 6:50 So if there are any new converts who 6:53 want to study in a boarding school 6:55 setting, it’s not just for a day or 6:57 two, not a month or two, but for a long 7:00 time, for the long haul. Are you up for 7:03 it? No. But we have a target for a 7:07 certain duration. For those of 7:10 productive age, I put them through 7:13 university up to a bachelor's degree 7:15 for free, with the agreement that once 7:18 they graduate, they must return to 7:20 their respective regions to preach. 7:23 That's how it is. I even send our 7:26 students to the Middle East; four have 7:28 already graduated, three from Iraq and 7:30 one from Sudan. Alhamdulillah. So, 7:36 joining Annabai is completely free, you 7:38 don't need to worry about anything. 7:40 Everything is free, God willing, 7:42 because we have a target to make these 7:45 converts the spearhead. And usually, my 7:48 students who start as converts from 7:50 zero are educated so that in one month 7:53 they must be able to read the Quran, 7:55 yes. Within 1 month, at the very least, 7:58 they must be able to read the Quran. 8:01 Many are even fluent in Arabic. That is 8:04 why people are often jealous of me. 8:06 They ask, "There are non-Muslims and 8:08 regular Muslims who say,' Ustaz, I am 8:12 sometimes jealous of these converts. '" 8:14 "Why, Sir? Why, Ma'am?""Because you 8:17 converts have a better understanding of 8:19 Islam than us generational Muslims." 8:21 Why, Ustaz? I said, "You are 8:24 generational Muslims. While we are' 8:26 uphill 'Muslims." I said, yes. So there 8:31 are generational Muslims, and there are 8:32 uphill Muslims. What is the difference? 8:36 What is the difference between a 8:38 generational Muslim and an uphill 8:39 Muslim? If you think of a generational 8:42 Muslim as driving a car. When we are in 8:44 a car, if the road is going downhill, 8:46 do you step on the brake or the gas? 8:49 Brake or gas? 8:50 It can't be the gas. Definitely the 8:51 brake. Right? That’s why they are 8:54 often late to the mosque, late to the 8:55 study circles. Why? Always braking. 8:58 They never seem to arrive. Try thinking 9:00 , if it's an uphill road, do you step 9:01 on the brake or the gas? 9:02 Brake or gas? 9:04 Gas. That’s why you keep hitting the 9:06 gas. Right? 9:07 Ah. When I first converted to Islam, I 9:10 personally was able to read the Quran 9:12 in a week. In 3 months, I was already 9:14 fluent in Arabic. Why? I was given a 9:17 target. I was given a target. Right? So 9:20 that is what an uphill Muslim is. They 9:22 keep stepping on the gas. True. Now. 9:25 Alhamdulillah, some time after that, I 9:28 became a preacher. And this is not 9:32 arrogance, not showing off. This is 9:34 motivation for the converts. 9:35 Alhamdulillah, I have traveled to 9:37 preach in four continents. I used to go 9:41 preach in America, Europe, Australia, 9:42 and various other countries every year. 9:45 For what purpose? We were expanding our 9:47 outreach. Because what was the verse I 9:50 just recited? This, this is my subject 9:52 matter. aralakain akamun. Please open 10:05 your Qurans. Those using an app, please 10:08 open it. Sorry, I'm going a bit fast. 10:10 Let's speed up the pace even more. We 10:13 only have 50 minutes. Surah Saba, 10:16 chapter 34, verse 28. aralnaka illa 10:24 kaatanas. "We have not sent you, 10:30 Muhammad, except to all of mankind." 10:37 Prophet Muhammad was sent by Allah to 10:40 all of mankind. Not just to the Arabs, 10:46 but in reality, the Prophet was only 10:51 able to preach in two places. Just in 10:56 Mecca and Medina. 13 years in Mecca, 10 11:00 years in Medina. How old was he? How 11:05 old was he? 11:07 Huh? 63. At what age was he appointed 11:12 as a prophet? 11:14 At the age of 40. Meaning from 0 to 40, 11:16 he wasn't a prophet yet; he was still 11:19 an ordinary human like us. There was no 11:21 command to preach yet, no command to 11:24 convert people to Islam. The command 11:28 came after he turned 40, when the 11:30 Prophet received the revelation at Hira 11:34 Cave, "Iqra bismi rabbikalladzi khalaq. 11:37 " Yes, he only preached for 23 years. 11:44 13 years in Mecca, 10 years in Medina. 11:48 The Prophet never went to America, 11:51 Europe, or countries around here. 11:55 Meanwhile, the verse said, "Wama 11:57 arsalnaka illa kaffatan linas." His 12:00 duty was to all of mankind. Let me ask 12:05 you this, was the prophetic mission 12:10 finished or not? 12:14 When the Prophet passed away, was the 12:16 mission complete? 12:18 No. Was Islam complete yet? 12:21 Huh? Was Islam finished? 12:24 Yes. When the Prophet passed away, a 12:31 few days before he died, he received 12:34 the final revelation. Where was he? 12:39 During the Farewell Hajj at Arafah, the 12:42 Prophet received the final verse, what 12:44 was it? Surah Al-Ma'idah verse 3. 12:49 Alummalakumakumikumakum is this is the 13:02 closing verse. What does it mean? This 13:17 day I have perfected your religion, 13:24 completed My favor upon you, and I am 13:27 satisfied with Islam as your religion. 13:33 So this verse is the final revelation. 13:39 What does the final revelation mean? It 13:42 means the Quran has been sealed. The 13:47 Quran is perfect, the Quran has no more 13:50 flaws. So Muslims don't need to look 13:55 for other religions or other references 13:59 . Because Islam is already perfect. Do 14:04 not introduce new innovations into 14:06 Islam. This is enough. What wasn't 14:10 perfect yet? Huh? Who knows? What 14:14 wasn't perfect at that time? Huh? What 14:20 wasn't perfect was the Prophet's 14:22 mission of da'wah. The Prophet was 14:27 tasked to preach to all of mankind. But 14:30 in reality, the Prophet only preached 14:32 in two places: Mecca and Medina. He 14:36 hadn't gone anywhere else, yeah. Why? 14:41 Because the Prophet's life was short. 14:45 His task was so great and global, yet 14:49 his life was short. Only Mecca and 14:53 Medina. Forget America, they hadn't 14:56 even reached the closest countries yet. 14:59 To Egypt, Yemen, Sudan, Jordan, 15:01 Palestine, they hadn't preached there 15:05 yet. Especially not the places further 15:07 away. Then the Prophet passed away 15:11 while his prophetic mission was still 15:13 incomplete, meaning the preaching was 15:15 not finished. So, who was to continue 15:19 this prophetic mission? Who would carry 15:23 on this prophetic task? Who was it 15:27 entrusted to, Ma'am? To whom? To the 15:32 early companions. So there is a verse 15:36 that was revealed to the companions at 15:39 that time. What does Allah say in Surah 15:41 Ali Imran verse 110? What does Allah 15:44 say? Kuntum khair ummatin ukhrijat 15:48 linnas. Kuntum. Who is being addressed? 15:51 Who was the Prophet's audience? 15:55 Allah’s audience in that verse is " 15:57 kuntum.""Kuntum" refers to the 16:00 companions at that time; you, the 16:02 companions of the Prophet, are the best 16:04 of nations. The best of nations, " 16:09 ukhrijat linnas," brought forth for all 16:12 mankind. So the companions at that time 16:16 were the best of nations. Why? Because 16:21 the companions at that time were given 16:23 the prophetic task. What is the 16:25 prophetic task? Preaching. So, 16:30 preaching is the noblest profession. As 16:35 stated in the Quran: "Waman ahsanu 16:37 mimman da'a ilallahi wa' amila salihan 16:40 waqala innani minal-muslimin." Who has 16:44 a better word than one who invites 16:47 others to Islam? So, this preaching is 16:52 an activity, the noblest profession. 16:55 Indeed. So, back when I was reading 16:59 this verse, brothers, while reading 17:01 this verse, I thought, what do I do for 17:04 a living? Now, after I entered Islam, 17:06 what is my job? I was motivated to read 17:11 this verse. I looked at it in Surah 17:15 Fussilat; it turns out the noblest job 17:18 in this world is what? The job of 17:22 preaching. What is preaching? Inviting 17:27 people. Inviting people, especially 17:32 non-Muslims, to Islam. So the language 17:36 used is "inviting." Do not let it come 17:39 across as "mocking." Yes. So what form 17:43 does preaching take? Inviting. Do not 17:47 let it come across as mocking. 17:50 Preaching is essentially about guiding. 17:53 Do not let it come across as insulting. 17:56 Indeed. Preaching is teaching. Teaching 17:59 . Preaching is teaching. Do not let it 18:02 come across as attacking. Indeed. 18:05 Preaching is essentially embracing. Do 18:08 not let it come across as striking. 18:10 Indeed. So, if you are preaching, you 18:14 need to know there are three means of 18:17 struggle. Write it down, please write 18:20 it down. There are three means of 18:24 struggle, yes. How many? 18:28 There are three. The first is called 18:31 Da'wah (preaching). The second is 18:36 called Hisbah (accountability/enjoining 18:37 good). The third is called Jihad. So, 18:43 there are three means of struggle. 18:46 There is Da'wah, there is Hisbah, and 18:50 there is Jihad. These are the means of 18:54 struggle. The methods are different. In 18:59 Da'wah, you must not be harsh. Da'wah 19:03 must be gentle, like me. See, I am 19:08 being the most gentle here. Da'wah 19:12 should not be harsh; it must be gentle. 19:16 Because Allah Himself reminded the 19:18 Prophet, "Fabima rahmatin minallahi 19:21 linta lahum walau kunta..." fazzan 19:25 ghalizal-qalbi lanfaddu min hawlik. It 19:28 is because of the mercy of Allah that 19:30 you, Muhammad, are able to be gentle. 19:34 If you were to speak harshly and have a 19:36 hard heart, what would happen? Lanfaddu 19:39 min haulik. The people you are 19:42 preaching to would surely run away and 19:43 abandon your message. God says so. 19:48 Ustaz, why are there Habib speakers who 19:50 are harsh and stern in their sermons? 19:54 Oh, you must understand. That Habib is 19:57 not preaching. What that Habib is doing 20:01 is called hisbah. What is hisbah? 20:05 Hisbah is commanding the good and 20:08 forbidding the evil. Preventing evil is 20:11 what we call hisbah. Now, you can't be 20:15 soft or gentle when doing hisbah to 20:17 prevent evil. If you go to a nightclub, 20:20 can you just say, "Ma'am, Sir, please, 20:24 could you close this down?" Could you? 20:28 You must be firm. "Hey, this place of 20:30 vice is a hub of evil, shut it down."" 20:34 If you don't close it, I will destroy 20:36 it." That is how firm it is. Because 20:38 what did the Prophet say? Man roa 20:40 minkum munkaran falyugirhu biyadi. 20:44 Whoever among you sees evil, change 20:46 that evil with what? First, with your 20:49 hands. Not by attacking the person. But 20:51 by changing the means of that vice. The 20:54 means should be destroyed, not the 20:56 person. So it is different. So if an 21:00 ustaz in a mosque is angry and raging, 21:03 well, that is the wrong place. That is 21:08 the wrong place; it is not the right 21:09 setting. A mosque is for preaching, not 21:13 for hisbah. Uh-huh. These ustaz should 21:18 really know this. Especially new 21:22 converts who haven't studied Islam and 21:24 suddenly jump into being preachers. Oh, 21:28 they are already an ustaz, already 21:29 called an ustaz by the community. This 21:32 should not happen. It could damage the 21:34 image of Islam itself. Study first. 21:37 When I converted to Islam, I didn't 21:39 immediately become a preacher. I 21:41 studied at a boarding school first. I 21:43 studied for a long time in Libya. Study 21:45 first. After we gain knowledge and feel 21:49 we have the basics of Islam, only then 21:52 do we convey it, right? Only then do we 21:55 convey it, like Dr. Karisa earlier, 21:57 what did she convey in her field? She 22:00 is a doctor. She is a doctor. So her 22:05 base is as a doctor, presenting medical 22:08 topics from an Islamic perspective. 22:11 Right. Good. But if you are talking 22:15 about Sharia issues, you must study 22:17 first, study first. Especially this 22:20 methodology of preaching. Study first. 22:23 If you cannot yet read the Quran, don't 22:24 immediately jump into being a preacher. 22:28 Learn the Quran first, learn the 22:29 hadiths first, learn fiqh first. 22:32 Understand? So don't be a convert for 22:36 too long. I have been a Muslim for 30 22:38 years and people still say, "Ustaz, the 22:40 convert." I feel embarrassed. I say, " 22:41 When will I stop being a convert?" A 22:44 convert forever, a convert forever. I 22:45 am called that. Yes, being a convert 22:48 shouldn't last too long. Two years at 22:52 the most. After that, what should you 22:54 become? A preacher. On your shoulders 22:57 rests the responsibility of dakwah. Why 23:00 ? Because when someone with a convert 23:04 background becomes a preacher, the 23:07 weight of their preaching is greater 23:09 than those born Muslim, the hereditary 23:12 Muslims. Why? Because you have a 23:17 background; you know the weaknesses of 23:18 other religions. Forgive me, when I 23:22 preach to Christians, it doesn't take 23:23 long; after one or two meetings, they 23:25 usually give in and ask to convert to 23:27 Islam. In fact, in my experience, who 23:31 is it hard to convert? Muslims. 23:34 Converting Muslims is more difficult 23:36 than converting others. Why? We know 23:40 the methods. That's right. You know the 23:43 methods? That’s why let’s continue. 23:47 How many means of struggle were there? 23:50 Three. What is the first one? 23:51 Dakwah (preaching). Is it okay to be 23:53 harsh in preaching? 23:55 Is it okay to be rude? No. 23:57 No. Which one allows being rude? 24:00 Hisbah. Because what is that? Nahi 24:01 mungkar (forbidding evil). So if an 24:04 ustaz in a mosque is shouting and 24:06 getting angry, well, rebuke him; that 24:08 is not allowed. Why? You are preaching, 24:11 you are teaching; don’t get angry. 24:14 It’s not the place for it. Where 24:16 should you be angry? Discos, bars, 24:18 places of vice—that's where you get 24:20 angry. Then the third, the means of 24:24 struggle called jihad. Jihad. The jihad 24:29 I mean is not just effort, but qital. 24:32 Physical jihad. Waqtilu fisabilillahi 24:37 alladhina yuqatilunakum wala ta’tadu 24:40 innallaha la yuhibbul mu'tadin. Note it 24:44 down: Surah Al-Baqarah, the second 24:47 surah, verse 190. So in a physical war, 24:54 you can’t just use words anymore. 24:57 Physical must be met with physical. 25:01 Don’t act like when someone is doing 25:02 this. Hey, friend, stop, stop. Friend, 25:04 stop. That won’t work. If it’s like 25:06 this, then it’s like that too. But 25:09 our form of it in Islam is defensive, 25:11 self-defense. We are not allowed to 25:15 seek enemies first. It is haram. It is 25:18 haram for a Muslim to go looking for a 25:20 fight. Oh, showing off weapons. It is 25:22 haram; it deviates from the Quran. But 25:26 if someone attacks us physically, it is 25:28 also haram not to fight back. We must 25:32 stand our ground. That is the verse 25:35 waqtilu fisabilillahi. Fight in the way 25:38 of Allah. Who? Alladhina yuqatilunakum. 25:41 Who are you fighting? Those who fight 25:44 you. If your enemy is already dead, 25:48 wala ta’tadu. Oh, don't go chopping 25:50 them up again. Don’t go dismembering 25:52 their body. Bury them. Innallaha la 25:55 yuhibbul mu'tadin. Allah does not like 25:57 those who transgress the limits. Don't 25:59 be like the Serbs were toward the 26:00 Bosnians. Once the Muslims were dead, 26:03 they chopped up their bodies and fed 26:05 them to dogs. That is barbaric. 26:07 That’s right. Just because we have 26:09 killed them, we shouldn’t chop them 26:10 up; that is not allowed. It is haram. 26:13 Because physical war in Islam is only 26:16 defensive. Self-defense. Correct. Once 26:18 they are dead, bury them. So those are 26:22 the three means of struggle. What is 26:24 the first? 26:25 Dakwah. What is the second? 26:27 Hisbah. 26:28 Hisbah. What is Hisbah? 26:30 Nahi mungkar. What is the third? 26:33 Jihad. What is jihad? 26:37 Linguistically, jihad means to strive 26:40 earnestly. There are two types of jihad 26:43 . There is jihad bil-anfus wal-amwal. 26:47 There is jihad bil-anfus, meaning with 26:49 one's soul and physical sacrifice; 26:52 there is another, bil-amwal, with 26:54 material. Material here doesn't just 26:58 mean wealth, but energy, thoughts— 26:59 everything is included as amwal, assets 27:01 . Personal assets. So, personal assets, 27:04 or wealth, aren't just about cash. 27:07 Amwal is not just money. Amwal here 27:10 refers to personal assets. It could be 27:13 intellectual, labor-based, material 27:16 assets, and various other forms. That 27:19 is what amwal is. So, through souls and 27:23 wealth, both life and property. Wealth 27:27 here refers to those personal assets. 27:30 Do you understand? Good. So, what we 27:35 are discussing today is the methodology 27:38 of da'wah to non-Muslims. How Ustaz, 27:43 what is your key to being successful in 27:46 da'wah to them? I don't have my own 27:50 method; I refer to the Quran. The 27:54 method of da'wah is already in the 27:56 Quran. Try opening the 16th surah. 28:04 Surah An-Nahl verse 125. Which surah? 28:10 An-Nahl. 28:13 I am speaking too fast, aren't I? 28:17 Huh? 28:18 Yes, I am rushing because there are 28:20 only 10 minutes left. Okay, I will 28:23 speed it up. The methodology of da'wah 28:28 is in the Quran. Which surah was it? 28:31 An-Nahl. An-Nahl, what verse? 28:34 125. What does the verse say? 28:39 Invite to the way of your Lord. What is 28:44 the first one? With wisdom. The second 28:48 is with good instruction. The third is, 28:52 and argue with them in a way that is 28:55 best. Oh, these are the three 28:57 methodologies of da'wah. Whoever 29:00 practices these three methods in the 29:02 world of da'wah will succeed. They will 29:07 definitely succeed if they practice 29:08 these three ways. And this is what I do 29:12 . Yes, invite people to the path of 29:19 your Lord, to Islam, to this truth in 29:23 three ways. What is the first way? With 29:30 wisdom. What is wisdom? Putting things 29:39 in their proper place. Wisdom is 29:43 placing something where it belongs. 29:50 That is wisdom. But in tafsir, the 29:52 explanation is even broader. Wisdom can 29:55 be interpreted as knowledge, with 29:57 concepts and science. With evidence, 30:02 with arguments, with the Quran, with 30:07 the Sunnah. That is called wisdom. 30:15 There is a segmentation of three ways. 30:20 When do we preach with wisdom? When do 30:24 we preach with good instruction and 30:26 when do we preach with debate? These 30:29 three, what I do, when I preach to 30:34 Christians who are smart and 30:36 intellectual—for example, two days 30:39 ago, someone who apostatized came to 30:41 our boarding school in Bogor. They had 30:45 left Islam, and their parents were 30:47 crying. The parents were crying because 30:50 their child had apostatized. Where do 30:51 they go to college? At a top-tier 30:54 university. A 20-year-old male who left 30:59 the faith. Alhamdulillah, after a 31:02 dialogue with me, he returned and 31:05 recited the two testimonies of faith 31:07 again. Alhamdulillah. Why did I view 31:10 this person as a Muslim who apostatized 31:12 but is intellectual? I approached him 31:14 in an intellectual way, with wisdom, 31:16 with knowledge, with concepts. Tell him 31:19 the advantages of Islam scientifically 31:22 and the weaknesses of other religions 31:25 scientifically. That is called wisdom. 31:31 I said, "Sir, when speaking to 31:33 Christians, we discuss concepts." Let 31:38 alone the vast concepts of Islam, even 31:41 the basics of Islam are already 31:44 superior. I ask, an example of what? In 31:49 terms of its name alone, just the name. 31:53 Islam is already superior to the names 31:54 of other religions. Why? Allah chose a 31:59 name that is the most neutral. The name 32:04 is Islam. Islam is an Arabic word which 32:08 means peace/safety. A name that is 32:13 never tied to the name of its founder, 32:17 a figure, a tribe, a region, or a place 32:21 ; it is not tied to anyone's name. 32:26 Islam means safety. The name itself is 32:31 superior, a neutral name. Look at 32:34 Judaism, the Jewish religion is not 32:37 neutral. It is tied to the name of a 32:41 tribe. Is that right? Is it neutral? 32:44 That means only those of the Jewish 32:46 tribe are allowed to be Jewish. It is 32:49 not neutral. So Judaism is not a 32:52 missionary religion. Judaism is not a 32:55 missionary religion. Even when Jewish 32:58 people fight against the Palestinian 33:00 people, it is not to carry out a 33:01 religious mission. There is not the 33:04 slightest ambition for them to convert 33:05 the Palestinian people to Judaism. No. 33:09 Because Judaism is not a missionary 33:10 religion. Judaism is a religion 33:12 specific to their own people. Not 33:17 neutral. Especially Christianity, from 33:21 the word Nazareth, the birthplace of 33:22 Jesus in Jerusalem. I have been there 33:26 twice to visit. It's not neutral, it's 33:29 a place name. But in Islam, no matter 33:33 the tribe, no matter the nation, no 33:36 matter the skin color, no matter the 33:38 language, one can be a Muslim. Why? It 33:42 is a neutral name. True. The name Islam 33:46 alone is already superior. Second, the 33:50 greeting. The Islamic greeting alone is 33:53 superior. Take the greeting of 33:54 Christians for example. Good morning, 33:56 good afternoon, good evening, good 33:58 night. But in Islam, the greeting 34:01 transcends time. Assalamualaikum 34:04 warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. May peace, 34:07 the mercy of Allah, and the blessings 34:11 of Allah be upon you. Whether it's 34:13 morning, afternoon, evening, or night, 34:16 it transcends time. True. Compare that 34:20 to "good morning." There is a story, 34:23 Ma'am. There was a person from my 34:26 village, a Batak person from Medan, 34:28 whose child happened to be studying in 34:30 America. In the morning he called, " 34:33 Good morning, son." The child said, " 34:34 What do you mean?""My apologies, Mom. 34:36 It is night here, it's not neutral. 34:41 It's morning here, but night over there 34:43 ." Huh? Is it neutral? Not neutral. But 34:48 if you say Assalamualaikum, whether 34:49 it's morning or night, there's no 34:50 problem. True. The greeting of Islam 34:53 itself is already superior. Third, look 34:57 at the rituals of Islam. Islamic 35:02 rituals are superior. Wherever you go, 35:06 the way Muslims worship is the same. 35:11 You go to America at midday like this 35:13 to perform Dhuhr prayer, looking for a 35:15 mosque. Once you find the mosque, you 35:19 find people already praying Dhuhr in 35:21 congregation. You don't need to ask 35:23 people there, "Hey, what prayer is this 35:25 ? How many rak'ahs?" No need. You join 35:27 the congregation and immediately takbir 35:30 , Allahu Akbar. You just have to 35:32 calculate this. If he says the salam, 35:34 how many rak'ahs do I get? If he says 35:36 the salam and I've only done two, I 35:38 just add two more. You know how to 35:40 adapt immediately without asking. Isn't 35:42 that right? The method is the same, the 35:45 recitation is the same, the qibla is 35:47 the same, everything is the same. Think 35:51 about us back then, I used to be HKBP. 35:55 Imagine if I went from an HKBP in Medan 35:58 to an HKBP here. Let alone different 36:00 branches or sects, even within one sect 36:02 , the way of singing is already 36:04 different. Other ways are different too 36:07 . Especially if you go to America, you 36:11 have to register, sign up, make a 36:14 statement, learn the language, and 36:17 learn the songs. When would you even 36:19 get to worship? All your time is spent 36:21 just adapting. Look at the Hajj 36:25 recently. Right. Muhammad Ibrahim, call 36:37 , invite all of humanity to perform the 36:40 Hajj. There isn't a single country that 36:43 doesn't send a delegation to perform 36:46 the Hajj. Isn't that right? Where in 36:48 this world can you find a place without 36:50 Muslims? Where do you want to go? 36:53 Africa has many Muslims. Even in 36:56 countries with a Christian majority, 36:58 there are many Muslims. If you go to 37:01 America, you won't just find one round 37:04 of Friday prayers. Rarely. On average, 37:07 Friday prayers are held in two shifts, 37:09 sometimes even three. True. You won't 37:13 find that there. Why? That is how Islam 37:17 is currently rising. This era, this 37:21 century, is the century of the great 37:24 Islamic awakening. Islam is rising 37:28 everywhere, while other religions are 37:31 closing down, going bankrupt. Islam is 37:35 the fastest-growing religion. Because 37:38 Islam is the true religion. Islam is 37:40 the superior religion. True. Its 37:43 rituals are, mashallah, extraordinary. 37:46 Especially if you analyze the Quran and 37:49 compare it to the Bible, it's like 37:51 heaven and a well. Huh? Between heaven 37:56 and a well. It's just between the sky 37:59 and a well. Yes, the comparison is so 38:02 far apart. Why? The Quran is the 38:05 authentic, preserved revelation of 38:08 Allah. While the previous scriptures 38:11 are no longer preserved. Indeed, it is 38:13 We who sent down the Quran and indeed, 38:16 We are its guardians. We are the ones 38:18 who revealed the Quran. We are also the 38:21 ones who preserve the originality, 38:23 purity, and authenticity of the Quran. 38:26 Guaranteed by Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala 38:28 . Why? That is Allah's guarantee. 38:32 Because there will be no more new 38:34 scriptures, the Quran is the final 38:36 revelation, it is impossible for there 38:38 to be another. True. Therefore, the 38:41 Quran is protected by Allah from being 38:44 falsified. No one can forge the Quran. 38:48 Who wants to try? Zaitun wants to 38:50 create a fake one. Oh, it doesn't work. 38:52 Everything gets exposed. All its 38:54 rottenness gets exposed. Is there 38:56 Zaitun here? Not yet. 38:58 Huh? It's here. Is X there? Yes. 39:04 No one can change the Quran. Why? 39:09 Because Allah has made the Quran easy 39:11 to memorize by heart by its followers. 39:15 And We have certainly made the Quran 39:17 easy for remembrance, so is there any 39:19 who will remember? Indeed, Allah has 39:23 made the Qur'an easy to memorize, easy 39:26 to study, easy to understand, and easy 39:29 to put into practice. Easy. So much so 39:35 that Allah repeated that verse four 39:37 times in one chapter, called Surah 39:39 al-Qamar. Note Surah al-Qamar verses 17 39:45 , 22, 32, and 40. That verse was 39:50 repeated four times by Allah. "Walaqad 39:53 yassaral qurana lidzikri fahal mim 39:55 mudzakir." It is guaranteed by Allah 39:58 that studying the Qur'an is easy. So, 40:03 if a convert cannot read the Qur'an, it 40:05 is not the Qur'an that is difficult; it 40:07 is they who are finding it difficult to 40:09 learn Islam. That is why I tell 40:13 converts, do not look for spare time to 40:17 learn Islam, but you must make time. 40:21 Not look for spare time, but you must 40:24 make time. Understood? My, this feels 40:28 like teaching students, my brothers and 40:33 sisters. Delivering da'wah using the 40:38 first method, *bil-hikmah*(with wisdom) 40:40 , with knowledge, with this concept, 40:42 will provide opportunities for others 40:44 to enter Islam. True. Therefore, * 40:47 bil-hikmah*. Because not all 40:51 non-Muslims are intellectuals. Not all 40:54 non-Muslims are great, smart, or highly 40:57 educated. Some live in remote areas, 41:03 some live in the hinterlands and are 41:06 economically poor. So the way to do 41:08 da'wah to them is not with concepts. 41:11 Use what?*Wal-mau'idzatil hasanah*(good 41:14 counsel). Those people in the villages 41:17 there do not need lectures; they do not 41:20 need concepts; what do they need? 41:22 Application. You say Islam is 41:25 compassionate, where is the proof? We 41:30 are poor, we have nothing. So my way of 41:34 doing da'wah to them is not by talking. 41:36 Here is Zuhdi, a man from NTT. Please 41:37 stand up. This is Zuhdi. Zuhdi is from 41:40 NTT. I built three branches in NTT, in 41:42 his village. He is a convert too. My 41:47 way of doing da'wah is not by talking, 41:48 I don't give lectures. Because back 41:51 then, Ustaz Zudi, I once gave a lecture 41:53 at the BTN complex in Kupang. Only 200 41:56 congregants attended, but there were 41:58 400 police officers. Most of them were 42:01 police, all Christian police. Oh boy, 42:02 they were whispering earlier. "What is 42:04 this Nababan going to do? He will 42:05 surely convert the people of NTT." They 42:07 knew my mission. Because of that, I 42:10 dared not preach by talking anymore; my 42:12 da'wah is*bil-hal*(through action) and* 42:14 mau'idzatil hasanah*. That is my da'wah 42:18 there, sir. When I go there, I imitate 42:20 the styles we used back when we were 42:22 Christian. Missionary pastors, when 42:26 they go to proselytize, they don't just 42:28 bring a Bible. What do they bring? 42:32 Basic necessities. It's different with 42:34 an Ustaz. When an Ustaz goes to give a 42:36 lecture, he doesn't bring anything. He 42:38 doesn't bring a package. When I go 42:40 anywhere to lecture, I never bring a 42:42 package. I only come home with a 42:44 package. See, that's how it is. 42:48 Everywhere you lecture, you never bring 42:50 a package. You come home with a package 42:51 . What was my capital for lecturing 42:55 back then? Only two things. Lead and 42:58 loot. *Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi 43:01 rojiun. *Yes, someone passed away, they 43:04 will be prayed over, God willing. Only 43:07 two assets, lead and load. What is that 43:09 ? Tongue and spit. What assets do 43:14 ustadzs bring when they preach? Tongue 43:15 and spit. What do priests bring when 43:17 they go to evangelize? They bring their 43:19 bags. Well, that is their mission. When 43:22 I go to NTT, I copy the Christian style 43:24 . I copy it. I think I copy it. I ask 43:27 about gambling. If I go, I bring a lot 43:29 of money. I bring a lot of money. Oh, 43:33 acting like a businessman. What do I 43:37 offer to build? Um, a borehole well. 43:41 Offer a borehole well, yes. Um, try. My 43:49 hand is injured. There is one person 43:55 here. My hand is injured, friend. Come 43:56 here, try inserting it first. My hand 43:59 is injured. We can do it together. Try 44:03 pressing Fn F7 at the same time, evenly 44:06 , FN F7, FN FN F7. It didn't appear, 44:13 did it? 44:14 Already no. 44:16 Right? The one I have, the one I have, 44:18 has it been entered yet? 44:23 Yes, one moment. Okay. Okay. It's in. 44:26 Okay, Ustadz Fadlan. Masyaallah, his 44:32 trademark is wearing red. This is 44:34 extraordinary. Alright, proceed. What 44:40 is the preaching technique? Oh, these 44:43 are our male convert boarding schools, 44:44 right. Yes, this one is for the girls. 44:50 I want to find, I want to give the 44:52 preaching method from earlier. I came 44:58 to NTT. My style is the same as Ustadz 45:00 Fadlan's. Coming to NTT. If he brings 45:04 soap, I bring money, Ustadz. Haha. I go 45:08 to NTT offering to build a borehole 45:11 well, right. Yes, a borehole well. Wait 45:14 , wait, okay. Wait, can I have a little 45:17 tolerance. Yes, a borehole well. Ah, 45:20 what is the result? I tell the people 45:25 there, "Do you want it if I give you a 45:29 borehole well? Later I will flow it to 45:33 the houses of non-Muslim residents. I 45:37 don't look at religion, whatever your 45:39 religion is. I am looking at it from a 45:41 humanitarian side." Oh, they are happy. 45:44 Why is it hard to get water in NTT? It 45:47 is ultimately very difficult. They are 45:50 happy. Yes, for example. When I go to 45:54 NTT to preach, I am treated like a 45:56 president. I am honored there. Haha. 45:58 Look at this. Extraordinary welcome. H. 46:01 Let me speed this up. Let me speed it 46:07 up first. Later this. Uhm. Wait, wait, 46:12 this one later. Wait a minute. Well, 46:17 like this, the timing for example. Well 46:20 , this much, I brought a new well with 46:23 great cost, others dug everywhere and 46:27 failed. But I have a mission to preach 46:31 to them, when water doesn't come out, 46:34 well, I give this. We replace it with 46:40 water like this using, um, what is it 46:43 called? Uhm, a tank. Because I always 46:49 care about them. Finally, one day, a 46:52 man named Mr. Mateus came. Mr. Mateus 46:56 said to me, "Ustadz, I see that you are 46:59 very, very kind." People there say that 47:03 Mati is very good. The Ustaz doesn't 47:07 differentiate between religions. The 47:10 Ustaz is a Muslim, but he helps 47:13 Christians. I see that the Ustaz is 47:16 truly very kind. Mati is good. And uh, 47:20 Ustaz, may I ask for your help? What 47:25 kind of help, Sir? I have two daughters 47:29 . One finished elementary school, one 47:33 finished junior high. But both of them 47:35 are unemployed. I see that you are a 47:37 good Ustaz. Would you be willing to put 47:41 my two daughters through school, and it 47:43 wouldn't matter if you converted them 47:46 to Islam? Oh, I was shocked. A Catholic 47:50 father handed his Christian children to 47:53 me, asking me to convert them as long 47:55 as they get an education. Are you 47:58 serious, sir? Yes. Does the child want 48:00 to? He wanted to hand over these 48:02 children, these children of his. This 48:04 father, Mr. Matius, was still a 48:06 Catholic at that time. I told him to 48:10 make a written statement for handing 48:12 over his children to me, then I guided 48:14 them in their shahada at this Treknamo 48:17 Mosque here in Kupang. The word got out 48:19 in his village, it really did. Then I 48:24 took them to Jakarta, flew them to 48:26 Jakarta, you know. Took them to Jakarta 48:29 to our boarding school there in Bintaro 48:32 . I put them there and gave them an 48:36 air-conditioned room. The room had AC 48:40 and they were given good food, you know 48:43 . An AC room and they were given good 48:45 food. I looked for a good school for 48:47 them. Then I gave them a motorcycle. 48:50 Then I gave them pocket money. Wow, 48:53 these kids felt honored in Islam. Then 48:56 what happened after that? A week later, 48:59 these kids called their mom and dad. 49:01 Mom, Dad, thank you, Mom and Dad. Mom 49:04 and Dad, thank you for handing me over. 49:07 Yes. Wait, I'll continue just a little 49:09 bit, just a little bit, okay? Can I 49:11 have just a little time? Okay. Mom, Dad 49:15 , thank you for handing me over to 49:18 Ustaz Nababan. So you know, my sibling 49:22 and I are fed well, given a good place 49:24 to live, given a good school, and given 49:27 pocket money. If possible, Mom and Dad 49:30 should just convert to Islam too. Wow, 49:33 I cried so much hearing this. The child 49:37 started preaching after just one week. 49:40 In the end, the father and mother, they 49:42 cried. Do you know what they said? 49:45 Thank you. Tell Ustaz Nababan. If that 49:47 is really what you want, when the Ustaz 49:50 comes here, Dad will give you the third 49:52 sibling too so they can be converted. 49:55 Subhanallah. Sorry, I will just show 49:57 you the photo. This is their third 49:59 sibling who was handed over to me. As 50:02 soon as I guided them in their shahada, 50:05 the news spread everywhere. People were 50:08 racing to hand their children over to 50:10 me so I could guide them in the shahada 50:12 and take them to Jakarta. Yes, they 50:14 were racing to hand their children over 50:16 to me. Because in Jakarta they were 50:19 treated well, given honor, and given a 50:21 high status. Masyaallah. And in the end 50:25 , the parents converted to Islam as 50:28 well. Yes, I converted them to Islam. 50:30 Sorry, I'm only showing you the photos 50:32 of their conversions. I was once with 50:35 the ambassadors of Arab countries, but 50:37 my time is up. Ah, the elderly people 50:42 there finally handed their children 50:44 over to us. to be converted to Islam. 50:47 And what happened? The priests were 50:50 furious. Oh, they attacked me. Ustaz 50:54 Naban and Ustaz Fadlan have been 50:56 carrying out Islamization. Oh, we were 51:00 threatened. So, what is this method? A 51:06 method of Da'wah. So, when do we preach 51:10 using knowledge? When do we preach 51:13 using good counsel? And when do we 51:16 preach by debating? Unfortunately, time 51:21 is up. The committee seems a bit angry 51:25 because I've gone over time by 5 51:26 minutes. God willing. Hopefully, this 51:31 will ignite your spirit. Sorry, 51:34 committee. I am forgiven because I see 51:38 your faces have changed. I can see it. 51:41 Huh. Ah, this Da'wah of ours is 51:44 important. I am conveying that this is 51:46 very important. Running a bit late is 51:49 fine. This is not America. This is not 51:52 America. This is Indonesia, so running 51:53 a bit late is okay. This is very urgent 51:56 . Okay. Next time, don't give such a 52:00 short time limit. These materials are 52:03 not short materials. These are 52:04 materials that need to be long. 52:06 Understood. 52:06 Alright, sir. 52:07 Explaining like this is necessary 52:09 because we need examples. 52:10 Understood. Need evidence, yes. 52:13 So this is very important so that these 52:15 converts are truly enlightened. 52:17 Understood. 52:18 This is not a one or two-hour program. 52:20 Understood. 52:21 These converts need to be enlightened 52:23 so they become the spearhead of our 52:25 Da'wah in society. That's right. 52:28 Are these converts ready to be the 52:29 spearhead? 52:30 Are you ready? 52:31 Ready? 52:31 Takbir. 52:32 Allahu Akbar. 52:33 Takbir. 52:34 Allahu Akbar. 52:35 It’s like we’re about to go to war. 52:38 Yes. To keep the spirit up. Well, thank 52:41 you. God willing, please make this 52:44 convert program routine. 52:46 Alright. 52:47 Yes. Make this convert program routine. 52:49 Understood. 52:49 This is a very good program. Don't just 52:53 hold it once a year. If necessary, hold 52:56 it several times a year; the exposure 52:58 here is extraordinary. 53:00 Alright, thank you. I apologize, 53:03 hopefully this is all beneficial. But 53:05 please note, the material earlier must 53:08 be practiced in society. Are you all 53:10 ready to preach? 53:11 Are you all ready to preach? 53:13 Allahu Akbar. 53:15 Subhanakallahumma wabihamdik ashadu 53:18 alla ilahailla anta astagfiruka wa 53:20 atubu ilaik. Now, before I close, I’d 53:23 like to share some information. I have 53:28 established a modern Islamic boarding 53:30 school modeled after Gontor in Gadog, 53:33 Bogor. If there are any young male 53:37 converts who want to learn at my place, 53:39 it's free. But for now, it's for boys 53:43 only, formal education. Formal, primary 53:46 school graduates. Formal, primary 53:48 school graduates. Yes, that's in the 53:50 Gadog area. Please, if there are young 53:54 converts, send them to me; we will 53:57 educate them all for free. 54:00 Wassalamualaikum warahmatullahi 54:02 wabarakatuh.
