Post 9/11 incident signifies that a new thread should be taken to clothe the garb of Islamic dacwah. Interestingly, an Islamophilic outreach program is nothing new in the history of dacwah, but to make it today as a mainstream is vital to ensure a rise at the understanding level of Islam and possession of a correct comprehension of its teachings amidst the non-Muslims. The prospects are great but the promotions of it are very little and slow due to the perception to segregate between the Dacwah to the Muslims or also called Islah, from the dacwah to the non-Muslims in toto. Due to that, this paper tries to promote the prospects of outreach program in Islam through the three main mediums, which first is through the use Al-Hikmah, next is Al-Mawcizah Al-Hasanah from the outreach activities e.g.: Cordova Initiative, Kalimatin Sawa' and many more. Thirdly is through the use of Al-Mujadalah Al-Hasanah, like the exemplary harmonious debates of the late Ahmed Hussein Deedat (1918-2005), Dr. Zakir Abdul Karim Naik (born 1965) and many Muslim reverts. Reaching out is one thing and reverting others to Islam is another different thing, because only Allah can revert one from a religion to Islam. The duty of mankind is just to convey the message.en-USIslamophobia, Islamophilia, Islamic outreachReaching Out to the Non-Muslims: The Challenges and the Prospects of IslamophiliaArticle29576
