The divisions of the call to Islam (Da'wah).
0:23
The call to Islam during the life of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is divided into two phases:
0:28
The Meccan phase and the Medinan phase.
0:31
The Meccan phase is further divided into two parts:
0:34
The secret phase.
0:36
This lasted for three years.
0:38
And the public phase.
0:39
This was by speech only, without combat.
0:43
It began from the start of the fourth year of the Prophetic mission.
0:46
And continued until the migration to Medina.
0:49
The secret call to Islam.
0:52
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, began to call those he trusted to Islam in secret.
0:58
He informed his wife Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, may Allah be pleased with her, and his daughters.
1:04
And Ali Ibn Abi Talib, may Allah be pleased with him.
1:07
He was under the care of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.
1:11
And his freedman, Zayd Ibn Harithah.
1:14
The first to believe in him from outside his household was:
1:17
Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him.
1:21
He entered the religion of Allah during this early period of the call.
1:26
“Is he whose bosom Allah hath expanded for Al-Islam, so that he followeth a light from his Lord, (as he who disbelieveth)? Then woe unto those whose hearts are hardened against remembrance of Allah. Such are in plain error.” (39:22)
1:29
A small number of the early noble Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, embraced Islam.
1:35
These individuals accepted Islam in secret.
1:38
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, would meet with them and guide them in the religion while remaining hidden.
1:45
This was because the call was still individual and secret.
1:50
The revelation had continued and intensified following the descent of the beginning of Surah al-Muddaththir.
1:56
People began to hear whispers of the call to Islam.
2:00
During this secret period, the poor and the enslaved entered the faith.

If the longing of all worlds for one another is great,
2:30
The longing for you, O Prophet, knows no bounds.
2:37
May Allah send blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised,
2:44
And as long as lips move in remembrance.
