Muslim communities in the west need to sort themselves out...this will be a dawa in itself. Imagine if Muslim areas have zero crime, zero conflict and if all Muslims simply live honest hard working lives, not ripping anyone off, not harming anyone etc. Caring for the elderly, the young, the sick as a community...even making the street look clean and tidy. This will be the best dawa.

That is an adjunct to the primary dawah. The prophet had immense Akhlaq even before the call. PEople joined Islam through preaching and advocacy. Aisha and Abubakr were particularly notable for their delivery of Islam and convincing abilities. I have seen many people with beautiful akhlaq but who are not good in their dawah. Malays are a good example. Their akhlaq is generally very good but they dont emphasize dawah to non-muslim chinese and indians. In that way they lose the ability to engage the chinese and indians. Most malays have incredible akhlaq but chinese and indians are still not impressed by the religion. Why because the Malays have not intellectually challenged budhism or atheism in their non-Muslim society.
