Islam in South America
Tuesday, April 01, 2008
As-salaamu'alaykum wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu


Very few of us will surprised to learn that as Muslims we have a responsibility to convey the message of Islam to non-Muslims and invite them to Allah. Are we really fulfilling that duty?

With this great responsibility comes a great reward, insha'Allah.

"Whoever guides someone towards good, will receive the reward of the one who acts upon it." [Muslim]

This means, if a person is converted through the dawah you give him/her, you get rewards for all the prayers he/she does or all the fasts that he/she does, etc.

  • Preferably ANY books in Spanish

    Assalaamu Alaikum wrwb,

    Mash'Allah what an excellent project. www.whyislam.org offers free Islamic pamphlets and matierial in Spanish. A sister who I know says that it's the best translation of Islamic matierials into Spanish that she has seen.

    Jazaki'Allahu khair for letting me know about whyislam. I've contacted them before for dawaah material, but wasn't aware the translation is one of the best. Insha'Allah I'll get in touch with them again.

    Assalaamu Alaikom,

    JazakAllahu Khairon for your efforts.

    I was also told that one can contact Muslim embassies/councils such as of Saudia and they might be able to provide free books, qurans and Islamic info.
