Surat at-Tawba, 112 (Everyone has a duty to preach Islam on the path of Allah)

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's interview on A9 TV dated 3 April 2012

ADNAN OKTAR: “Those who repent, those who worship, those who praise,” Allah likes those who repent. “those who worship” acts of worship such as prayer and fasting and everything. “those who praise,” alhamdulillah. “those who fast,” for Allah. “those who bow, those who prostrate, those who command the right, those who forbid the wrong, those who preserve the limits of Allah: give good news to the believers.”

 “those who command the right, those who forbid the wrong,” Commanding the right and forbidding the wrong. Muslims have a duty to observe these acts of worship day and night. “The Religious Affairs Department does that,” people say. But then the Religious Affairs Department will earn the merit from it. But what about you? Can the Religious Affairs Department pray on your behalf? No. Neither can the Religious Affairs Department preach on your behalf. You must do it yourself. Everyone has a duty to preach Islam on the path of Allah.
