Abstract

This research investigates the ten foundations on which the preaching to Islam is based. This is conducted by deducing it from the fifteenth verse of Surat Al-Shura, the most important of which is the necessity of communicating the preaching, the integrity of the preacher which should be on God’s method, not following the passions, and the need to adhere to God’s approach and faith in the Holy Books. The research also dealt with practical objectives of preaching for the necessity of establishing justice, religious society, promoting individual responsibility to work, establishing religious milieu based on argument and evidence, and linking them all to the Day of Judgement.
