NGO Focus with Islamic Outreach ABIM

  • 9 years ago
Islamic Outreach-ABIM was first established in 1987 with a mission to spread the blessing of Allah SWT to all mankind. IOAs approach to dawah, is by propagating Islam as a complete way of life based on the teachings as written in the Quran.


Throughout almost twenty years of its existence, IOA has facilitated the conversion of over 1,000 new reverts. (Revert is the Islamic reference to converts to Islam as it is believed that everyone was born Muslim and that family or environment turned them to other religions).

85% of the reverts are 25 years old and above, and 64% are foreigners. IOA also receives converts from the Religious Department, PERKIM and other similar organizations for attendance in religious classes, pre-marital courses and other relevant programs conducted daily, weekly, and monthly by the organisation.

An estimated 5,000 converts have attended classes and programs organized by IOA.

Since its formation, IOA has developed its own niche in da'wah products as reflected in the programmes it conducts such as Converts Development Programme, Orang Asli Socio-economic Development Project, Inter-faith And Inter-civilization Programmes and Mosque Tour Guide Programme.

Malaysiakini speaks to IOA President Azril Mohd Amin on the organization's da'wah mission.
