7 传教工作的两个阶段
7 The Two Stages of the Da’wah
先知穆罕默德ﷺ在麦加的宣教分为两个阶段。第一个阶段是教导、培育以及理智与精神建设的阶段。第二个阶段是传播使命并为之奋斗的阶段。第一阶段的目的是确保人们正确理解这些新的概念,将它们融入人的品格之中,并围绕这些概念塑造人的品格。第二阶段的目的是将这些概念转化为社会中的一股动员力量,推动人们在生活的各个领域去落实它们。概念若不在社会中付诸实施,便只是一堆没有生命的信息。要使这些概念获得活力并得以实施,它们首先必须经历一个转变过程,从单纯的思想转变为社会中的推动力量,使人们接纳它们、领悟它们、承载它们,并为实现它们而奋斗。最终,这些概念的实现将成为必然。
The Da’wah of the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) in Makkah was divided into two stages. The first stage was the stage of teaching, culturing and intellectual and spiritual building. The second stage was the spreading of the Message and the struggle. The first stage was to ensure the correct understanding of new concepts and to incorporate them into personalities and to structure them around these concepts. The second stage was to transfer these concepts into a mobilizing force in the society that drives it to implement them in the different walks of life. Concepts are nothing but a mass of lifeless information unless they are implemented in a society. In order for these concepts to be energized and implemented, they first have to go through the process of being transformed from mere thoughts to becoming a driving force within the society, with people adopting them, realizing, carrying them and struggling to implement them. Eventually, the implementation of these concepts would become inevitable.
这就是安拉的使者ﷺ在麦加开展宣教的方式。第一阶段,他召唤人们归信伊斯兰,用伊斯兰的理念培养他们,教导他们伊斯兰的律法。他凡能聚集到的人,都以伊斯兰信仰为基础将其聚拢。这一阶段是秘密地将个人组织起来,并为宣教做准备。安拉的使者ﷺ坚持不懈地推行这一召唤,急切地希望培养所有归信伊斯兰的人。他把他们聚集在阿尔-阿尔卡姆的家中,或者派人到他们自己的家中或山谷里,以小组的形式对他们进行培养。他们秘密地进行,并聚集成一个群体。他们的信仰日益坚定,彼此之间的关系日益紧密,他们对每天所面临的使命也日益清醒,直到他们准备好为宣教献出一切。这一信息在他们的心中和思想中深深扎根,伊斯兰如同血液流淌在他们的血管里,他们成为了行走的伊斯兰典范。因此,尽管他们竭力将自己和宣教隐藏在古莱氏人的视线之外,这一信息却永远无法局限于他们自身之内。
