Title: How do we Convince non-Muslims about Islam? Question: How can you persuade non-Muslims that the salvation of the world lies in Islam? What main points would you use? Yasmean Akhtur Answer: In my opinion, it is not any specific set of beliefs and practices, which can be singled out as most convincing in Islam. On the contrary, I consider the coherence of the whole structure of Islam as extremely convincing, for a person, who approaches it with an open and receptive mind. When a person considers the overall targets of the Islamic teachings; analyzes the methods (beliefs and practices) propounded by Islam, to achieve these targets; considers the bases of all the beliefs propounded by Islam and the relevance between the values promoted by Islam and the practices that it prescribes. Islam is not a combination various directives that look attractive when seen independent of each other. Islam, on the contrary, is a complete set of directives which form a coherent whole. This, in my opinion, is the most attractive part of Islam. I hope this helps. Regards, Moiz Amjad October 19, 2001
