Third: In Da`awah and Missionary Activities

We should:

19. The Ummah should re-assume its long-since-abandoned role in facing and unveiling the falsified creeds, and calling to the truth of Islam, in a convincing direct clear-cut way, without any blandishment or equivocation, to all people on earth; be they People of the Scripture (Jews or Christians), Buddhists, Hindus or atheists.

20. The responsibility of da`wah (calling others to Islam) lies on every Muslim, each according to his own knowledge and abilities (which he should continuously develop). He is responsible for conveying the message of Islam to all non-Muslims he meets or deals; whether he resides in their lands or they come to Muslim countries for tourism, business or work.

21. Give great attention to translating da`wah materials (articles, books and other media) to all languages. Train editors and translators for this task, and pay for preparing, publishing and distributing such materials, in the form of publications, audios, video-tapes, CDs or on the Internet.

22. Focus our da`wah, by peaceful means, towards having all systems and laws in all Muslim countries derived from Islamic Shari`ah and to cancel all what contradicts it.

23. Seek to have the leadership positions and legislative councils – in all Muslim countries – nominated through free elections.

24. Help, advise and follow Muslim rulers as long as we do not disobey Allah (SWT). Support them if they support Islam and practice its Shari`ah, and aim for the honor and the unity of the Ummah. To advise them peacefully and rationally if they neglect that.

25. Avoid and abstain from all sorts of gatherings and festivals held in hypocrisy to rulers, wealthy and influential people. It is through such actions and assemblies that both injustice and corruption flourish.

26. Hold on to the freedom of all means of expression for individuals and groups. Strive to purify the laws from any restrictions on the freedom or breach of dignity of all citizens. Respect the nation’s free will, such that all affairs are decided according to consultation and public consent,within the framework of Islamic law.

27. Cooperate through all possible legal means and the media to liberate scholars, intellects, scholars, religious citizens and their families from what they suffer, in many countries; such as unjustified detention, persecution, torture and humiliation.


Fourth: In Money and Business

We should:

28. Verify the correct calculation of the due Zakat as a minimum to pay; and to take the lead to pay it without delay. To pay in addition further charity (as much as affordable) in the form of: money, food, medicine, furniture and equipment … etc.

29. Check where Zakat is being given and its fair distribution, whether to trustworthy individuals, charity organizations, or governments, and working on reviving the Islamic Zakat House (Bayt ul-Mal) for the nation.

30. Rationalize our consumption of the necessities and needs to the minimum; with only a bit more of the welfare items for those who can afford it. We should act more restrictively on those luxury and entertainment products, whose components come from hostile non-Muslim countries.

31. Deal with Islamic banks, and work to establish more new Islamic banks and new branches to counter the usury economy (Riba, Interest)

32. Educate our family, relatives and nation about the sin, danger and the grave consequences of dealing with foreign banks that deal in Riba.

33. Be keen on depositing and investing money in Islamic banks of Muslim countries, instead of keeping them in countries hostile to Islam.


34. In trade and business: concentrate on opening new markets, dealings and projects with Muslim countries and with Muslim businessmen everywhere.



35. Encourage and facilitate the mobility and residence of employees, experts, projects and capitals (according to agreements of free trade) within Muslim countries. To work for economic integration between them, as a first step towards economic unification.

36. Encourage Muslim tourism between our countries, while respecting the Islamic laws and ethics in the tourist places. We should also make the materials of da`wah available to introduce Islam to the tourists coming to our countries.

37. Avoid spending huge sums of money on traveling to non-Muslim countries except for education, training, business or other necessities useful for your nation.

38. Cooperate medically, by encouraging treatment in Muslim countries, and consolidate our efforts to cure the poor and make medicine available for all residents of Muslim countries.

39. Boycott products of countries hostile to Islam and Muslims, except for dire necessity. Encourage the products of Muslim countries as long as they comply with the needed specifications. Call on individuals and enterprises to favor our products, through personal contacts and through the media and advertisement.



Fifth: For the Muslim Unity

We should:

40. Call for and consolidate the belief in the importance and vitality of reunifying the Ummah. This can be through: educational systems since childhood, media, and da`wah channels. Pray daily for the nation: to be united once more, to return to the righteous path, and to get support from Allah.

41. Follow up, on a daily basis, the conditions of the Muslim world as well as the Muslim minorities, from all available Islamic media sources (newspapers, space channels and Internet sites). Discuss our nation’s affairs among family members, neighbors and colleagues.

42. Be keen on communicating with Muslims from all over the world in their various range of languages. We should get involved in group activities such as Internet discussion groups, visits, conferences and sports’ contests.

43. Challenge firmly and unveil the lies and deceptions initiated by hostile political and media circles opposing Islam, that seek to implant hatred and animosity among Muslims or use their poverty and ignorance to Christianize them or turn them away from Islam.

44. Support poor and oppressed Muslim countries and Muslim minorities, that have been exhausted by war and oppressions. Seek methods to reach them with all kinds of aid, and work on fund raising for that purpose, through governmental and voluntary organizations and enterprises.

45. Provide good, fair and kind treatment to the non-Muslim minorities in Islamic countries, based on equal rights and duties for all citizens, “They have what we have and they have to do what we have to do”. Protect their money, property, honor and blood; and maintain their full religious freedom.

46. Respond promptly to disasters inflicting Muslims by giving financial and physical aid. Draw the attention of other Muslims to assist in disaster relief.

47. Strive and cooperate in giving money, effort and thought for the Ummah, in order to possess all means of science, technology and military power, essential to liberate Muslim territories, defend them and fight back any aggression or invasion.

48. Cooperate to liberate Muslims and their countries from the oppression, aggression or hostilities exercised by the enemies of Islam - ever since its rise and is now at its peak. This only comes by sacrificing money, self, weapons, exchanging information, providing political and media support and making dua`a' after all prayers.

49. Boycott nations and governments hostile to Islam who fight Muslims in their faith and da`wah, who resist their unity by conspiracies and imposing puppy regimes, and who try to oust them from their own lands. To boycott as well those nations and governments who support our enemies: financially, militarily, politically or internationally.

50. Stop all kinds of military co-operation with such countries, be they enemies or enemy-supporters, whether by offering military bases, war facilities or exchanging information, etc.
