2. NAME OF THE PROGRAMME: “MAN WITH A MISSION”
SPEAKER: SHAIKH AHMED DEEDAT
Have you seen a Muslim observing a method of preaching that ironically had been conventionally the very tool of Western Christian missionaries? If not, watch Shaikh Ahmed Deedat … the “Man with a Mission”
Shaikh Ahmed Deedat, popularly known as the Muslim Scholar of the Christian Bible, is considered to be a pioneer in the field of public talks and debates on Islam and comparative religion. He took comparative religion to a new effective dimension, which involved a comparative and critical analysis of the Bible, rather than the traditional method of Da’wah (propagation) that involved expounding on the Qur'an and Hadith to a non-Muslim audience. He received the King Faisal International Award in 1986 for Service to Islam in appreciation to his continuous and serious efforts exerted in propagating Islam internationally. Though Shaikh Deedat has passed away in August 2005, his ardent passion for Da’wah still motivates minds of young Muslims and his legacy continues to inspire people of all ages.
