Muslims Are Obligated To Convey Allâh's Message

Muslims Are Obligated To Convey Allâh's Message


Question :

Are we Muslims not responsible for the future of the non-Muslims around the world, responsible to call them to the truth? What will be our status on the Day of Judgement if they claim, "neither a warner nor an invitation came to us?"


Answer:

For sure, Muslims are obligated to convey Allah's religion to all of mankind, but who is the individual that can do that? For something to be obligatory, it has to be possible and within the realm of ability, for Allâh Almighty has made ability a requisite for obligatory acts. Allâh Almighty says:
"So keep your duty to Allah and fear Him as much as you"

And the Prophet ﷺ said:
"If I order you to do something, then do from it what you are able."

We Muslims must convey Allah's religion and Shari'ah to all of creation, but according to our ability. Who can convey Allah's religion to all of mankind? Whoever can do that must do it.

Whoever cannot do that, then Allâh Almighty does not give a soul greater responsibility than it can bear.
