Islam in 21st Century
~ 201 ~
These are but a few from among the numerous
aspects which I have attempted to present before
you to show the opportunities for the call and
invitation to Islam. The revolutionary changes in
the thought and outlook of contemporary society
have brought man very close to Islam. Like the
instinctive pursuit of some upright persons called
Hunafa of the era of ignorance before Islam, the
whole of humanity has become a compulsive seeker
of Islam today.
This situation has opened up the doors of
tremendous new opportunities for da’wah – call
and invitation to Islam. If these opportunities are
availed properly, there is no doubt that the 21st
century would be the century of Islam.
PASSION FOR DA’WAH
I wish to conclude by mentioning an interesting
incident which serves as a booster for da’wah
activities. It concerns physicist Murray Cell-Mann
of the US who won the Physics Nobel Prize in 1969.
He was acknowledged for his contribution in
bringing order to man’s knowledge of the
seemingly chaotic profusion of subatomic particles.
