6. As-sabiqun al-awwalun. Not more than 40 people
Selective dakwah
people who likely to respond
Mostly chosen for their character and noble manner
Mixture men and women, the elites and the poor
Secretive dakwah
Important to protect the few muslim untill their iman
strong enough to face the onslaught later on
7. Shalat and taharah were ordained from the very beginning
2 times in the morning and evening, 2 raka’ah each
Early Quran was received with understanding and deep
contemplation
Focus on tauhid and creed
Establishment of tauhid, remembrence of Allah
Believe in the here after: life after death, reckoning,
vivid description of paradise and hell fire
Stories of Prophets and their follower
8. The first headquarter of da’wah
The house of Al-Arqam ibn Abil-Arqam
Why the house of Abil Arqam?
Not known to be the close companions Prophet
To young to attract Quraysh attention
From bani Makzum, unlikely to embrace Islam
His house is isolated from the rest of houses in Mecca
(beyond the Safa)
9. Quraysh knew about this movement but do not pay much
attention initially
Some people making claim against their idols in the past
Akin to Qass ibn Sa’edah, Zaid ibn Amr ibn Nufail etc.
No prosecution at this period
Quraysh was alarmed with the message
It treaten their way of life and social order
Followers across family and social status in Quraysh
They adhere to the teaching and leadership of Prophet

public declaration of Islam and Quraysh prosecution, insyaAllah
