Why do the Shi'a not engage in Da'wa? | Sayyid Ali Abu al-Hasan
In this video, Sayyid ʿAlī Abu al-Ḥasan delves into the fascinating question of whether Shīʿa speakers predominantly focus on inter-Islamic dialogue over Daʿwa to non-Muslims. This discussion explores the potential reasons behind such a distinctive approach within Shīʿa Islam. With his depth of knowledge and expertise, he examines the validity of this trend and the motivations that may drive Shīʿa scholars and speakers towards discussions within the Muslim community, as opposed to outreach towards non-Muslims. The video also highlights significant scholarly works within the Shīʿa tradition that contribute to this conversation. For those interested in the dynamics of religious outreach and the rationale behind the manner Shīʿa Islam has been spread, this video offers a coherent set of causes for the ongoing phenomenon.
