This
hadith
makes it clear that the prophetic
role of
dawah
(calling people toGod) remains
to be performed—that of spreading the
message of God (in its pure and unadulterated
form) to all mankind in the language of today,
i.e.of the post-scientific era.
The
dawah
team of the present time are the
potential candidates for this honoured
position of
ikhwan ar-rasul
. Now it is up to
each and every one of you to convert this
potential into actuality by performing this
role, first discovering Islam for yourselves—

da‘is
(those who call
people to God)
in the true sense of the word.
This entails imbibing the spirit of well-
wishing for all mankind, so that the
following
hadith
comes true in your case:
