    An Insight into Al-Qaraḍāwī’s Approach to Methodology of Daʿwah
    (Al-Itqān Journal of Islamic Sciences and Comparative Studies, 2023) Bello Khalid Ishola
    One of the highest forms of service to Allah is to invite people to Islam. This includes to invite non-Muslims to Islam and to correct misappropriations among the Muslims through application of dacwah. Daʿwah as the primary responsibility of the Messenger of Allah and Ulama’ of every generation in Islamic history take it to high esteem. Each scholar explores means available and methods considered appropriate and convenient for him in carrying out daʿwah activities. Al-Qaraḍāwī is a controversial personality and a dacī of international repute who has made remarkable impact in Islamic history in the 21st century. This paper critically assesses Al-Qaraḍāwī’s methods of daʿwah. The study, given its nature, is library based with extensive literature review of his works as well as his lectures from audio-visual channels. The concept of moderation, reality and combination between traditionalism and reform are found to dominate his fatawā and publications.

It has had influence on the readers, who, in turn, use the book and others to guide Muslims of their communities on all affairs. This paper examines commercial practice in the South-Western Nigerian with a view to comparing the findings with the Islamic ethics on such practices using the Minhaj as the yardstick for the assessment.

The data collected via administration of questionnaire were analyzed using simple percentage and frequency count method. Many practices were in conformity to the Islamic teachings while some others were not.
