Abstract
This article discusses the current proportion of converts to Islam and what methods should be adopted to invite non-Muslims to Islam. The real purpose of human creation is to attain the knowledge of God, but man forgets this purpose due to the abduction of Satan, for the remembrance of which Allah has entrusted the golden chain of the Prophets to guide them. Islam, being a universal religion, urges its followers to carry out their duty of preaching the message of God. The study concludes that Islam is spreading around the world three times faster than Christianity. According to the World Christian Encyclopaedia, the number of Muslims in the world was 307 billion in 1970, but now it has reached 508.9 billion, which is 9.6% of the world's population. Moreover, it is very important to keep in view the Qur'anic style of da'wah, i.e; wisdom, good exhortation, and controversy with the best. It is worth mentioning that the real face of Islami and Islamic teaching should be presented during da’wah. The da’wah should start with commonalities and the rational arguments should be made a part of the writing and speech.
