The Electronic Da`wah Committee (EDC) is earnestly working on structuring an authentic framework for the Da`wah package production. The package aims at inviting non-Muslims (Christians, atheists, Buddhists, and Hindus) to Islam; simply and eloquently explaining the message of Islam, and refuting misconception about Islam and Muslims that come up now and then.
Besides, the package aims at educating new Muslims about the foundations of Islam needed for this stage of the journey of embracing Islam; after-the-Shahadah stage, in order that their worship of the One God and the practice of His religion is truthful, deeply rooted and based on profound understanding.
The first edition of the package will be issued in English, then in other languages.
The E-Da`wah package will contain information about Islam and Muslims in different formats. Materials will be presented in books in PDF format, videos and audios.
There will be a separate package for each religious denomination.
