Since the time of the prophet Muhammad(S.A.W) , dawah has been practiced. We encourage Muslims and non-Muslims to learn how Allah’s worship is expressed in the Quran and practiced in Islam via da’wah.
The essence of Islam is mercy, compassion, and care for one another.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“The merciful are shown mercy by Ar-Rahman. Be merciful on the earth, and you will be shown mercy from Who is in the heavens. The womb is named after Ar-Rahman, so whoever connects it, Allah connects him, and whoever severs it, Allah severs him.”
(Narrated by Abdullah bin ‘Amr; Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1924)
This beautiful hadith reminds us that every act of kindness draws us closer to Allah’s mercy. Inspired by this teaching, Maison Dawah continues its food pack programme in May 2026, ensuring that less fortunate families and new Muslims embracing faith feel supported, loved, and uplifted.
Each food pack contains wholesome essentials such as flour, rice, milk, sugar, tea, cereal, canned food, oil, and other nutritious items to support a balanced diet.
Alhamdulillah, 50 families are benefiting from a food pack each, with the value of each pack being around Rs 1,279. We trust that the families, including children, will find relief and happiness, tasting the sweetness of solidarity and togetherness that Islam inspires, Insha Allah.
The distribution started on 15 May 2026 and is proceeding smoothly, Alhamdulillah.
For two consecutive Wednesdays — 06 & 13 May 2026 — Maison Dawah returned to Dr A. Gaffoor Jeetoo Hospital, continuing the mission of sharing the beautiful message of Islam with sincerity, wisdom, and compassion.
From 10:00 to 12:00, our dedicated team engaged with passers-by through meaningful conversations, warm smiles, and shared the beautiful message of Islam, Alhamdulillah.

On Friday, 13 March 2026, Maison Dawah welcomed reverts for an Iftar Gathering. It was an evening of learning, reflection, and togetherness, beginning at 17:45 and carried out in the essence of Ramadan.
Programme Highlights
Quran Exposition
Br. Sameed guided participants through the meaning and purpose of the Quran.
14 copies of Quran in different languages were displayed. (Arabic, English, French, Creole, Mandarin, Italian, Hindi, Spanish, Somali, Russian, Portuguese, German, Quran Braille for visually impaired individuals, Pen Quran)
He explained that the Quran is Allah’s guidance for all humanity, revealed in 114 chapters, and descended during Lailatul Qadr.
Reverts were invited to approach, explore, and touch the Qurans, making the experience deeply personal.
Talk on Ramadan & Islamic Values
Br. Ahamad spoke about Ramadan as a month of change and spiritual training.
He encouraged honesty, patience, and self-control.
He reminded us to avoid sins such as lying and anger, and to embrace Dawah.
He also highlighted the status of women in Islam, stressing that men—fathers, husbands, sons, and brothers—carry the responsibility of protecting and honouring women.
The event continued with Iftar, followed by Maghrib prayer in Jamaat, and concluded with dinner shared in fellowship. Gifts as sign of goodwill were also given to the guests present. The programme ended smoothly around 19:45.
Alhamdulillah, everything unfolded successfully by Allah’s Will. The gathering reminded us of the Prophet Muhammad’s (pbuh) words:
“Whoever observes fasts during the month of Ramadan out of sincere faith, and hoping to attain Allah’s rewards, then all his past sins will be forgiven.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 38)
Reflections and Feedback from Reverts and a Non-Muslim Guest:
The reverts expressed heartfelt joy, saying “Alhamdulillah, nous in bien content, nous bien satisfait in passe ene bon moment ensemble”. They were thankful for the opportunity to experience how Muslim families observe fasting and organise iftar/namaz/dinner, and described the evening as both uplifting and memorable.
There was also a non‑Muslim guest present, who warmly appreciated being invited. She shared how thankful she was for the opportunity, noting that the programme was very enriching and that she was “content qui invite bann non-muslim, mone gagne l’opportunité pour observer et vivre couma ban musulmans garde carême et casse carême.” For them, it was a rare and meaningful experience to witness the essence of Ramadan firsthand.
This evening was not just about breaking fast—it was about building bonds, strengthening faith, and being grateful to Allah swt for the blessings of Ramadan, Alhamdulillah.
On Saturday, 18 October 2025, Maison Dawah had the privilege of conducting a Family Dawah programme at the residence of one of our beneficiaries, Pailles. The initiative formed part of our efforts to promote Islamic education within families in a warm and supportive environment. The event brought together parent, grand parent, brothers, sisters, and children in a setting of learning, reflection, and togetherness.
The team arrived at 10: 05 a. m., and they were warmly received by the family. Shortly thereafter, the programme commenced under the leadership of Br. Ahamad, who expressed gratitude to the hosts and highlighted the importance of family-based Islamic learning, where values and knowledge are shared within the home.
The event continued with a beautiful recitation of Surah Al-Layl Hydayah of grade 5, which created a spiritual atmosphere and reminded everyone of the value of Qur’an learning among children and youths. This was followed by a presentation from Sister Nusayhah on cleanliness in Islam. She explained that cleanliness has both a physical and spiritual aspects, quoting hadith and Qur’anic verses. To finish she made a live demonstration how to do wudhu for the participants.
The programme then moved on for discussions on Islamic fundamentals presented by Br. Ahamad and Br. Sameed. The meaning of Islam, submission to Allah, and the message of peace in
“As-salaamu ‘alaykum” were explained clearly. The five pillars of Islam were addressed, highlighting their relevance to daily life: faith, prayer, charity, fasting, and pilgrimage.
A major focus of the event was explanation on the Oneness of Allah (Tawheed). Participants were reminded that Allah is Unique, without partner, parent, child or equal, and that associating partners with Him (shirk) is the gravest sin. Reflections on creation, human life, and nature encouraged everyone to contemplate the signs of Allah around them. The talks also touched on Islamic manners of eating and drinking and the importance of gratitude and avoiding harmful practices.
A special moment was experienced during the Adhaan and congregational Zuhr prayer. After performing wudhu, all participants prayed together in Jama’at, thus strengthening the sense of community and family worship. Lunch was then served, and the meal was enjoyed in a friendly atmosphere with heartfelt conversations and mutual appreciation.
After lunch, gifts were presented to members of the host family, including the children, and the gesture was received with gratitude and emotion. In his closing address, Br. Ahamad emphasised the responsibility of parents to nurture their children’s Islamic education and to continue seeking knowledge throughout life.
Alhamdulillah, the Family Dawah Programme at Pailles concluded successfully. It strengthened bonds, deepened understanding of core Islamic principles, and created cherished memories for both hosts and participants. We pray that Allah rewards all who contributed, blesses the host family, and enables us to continue promoting knowledge, unity, and faith within our communities.

*Le terme arabe “Khamr” (خمر) désigne le vin, et par extension, toute boisson enivrante ou substance intoxicante. Dans l’islam, sa consommation est haram (interdite) en raison de ses effets sur la raison et le comportement.
