A Review on the Concepts of Da’wah Methodology to the Special Needs

This paper aims to discuss the methodology of da’wah to the disabilities people with blind in Malaysia. A discussion on the methodology of da’wah is an important aspect in order to achieve the mission of da’wah itself. As far as a subject matter is concerned, based on previous studies, the discussion about teaching the religion in the context of Da`wah to blind people is not taken seriously by some researchers. However, on the side, they are more likely interested in focusing on the methodology of da`wah to new converted (muallaf). Therefore, this current study is important to explore the strategy used by Muslim preachers (da`ies) in communicating with blind people and their methods in delivering the messages of da’wah. This study is a qualitative approach using content analysis as a research design. The expectation of this study is to establish a theory of da’wah’s approach that can be applied by Muslim preachers in order to communicate with blind people by transmitting knowledge and values to them. Hopefully that this study will contribute a new discovery in the field of da’wah to those who have special needs.
