I think it is very imporatnt to know the spiritual needs of the person one is talking to, being a good salesman here can definitely help inshaAllah.

You are 100% correct sister.

There is a saying in sales, "The prospect doesn't care how much you know; until you show them how much you care".

I have seen very knowledgable brothers and sisters think they were giving Dawa.

And talking to the non muslim all about heavy subjects like fiqh and aqeedah; and go on and on.

While the poor non muslim hasn't got a clue what they are talking about.

I know that they are very serious and mean well; but that approach is highly ineffective.


Again, ask the prospective person thoughtful questions and then let them talk.

Listen, Listen, Listen
