📖 Commentary of Verse 8 (71:8 Surah Nuh)

"Then I called them openly."

✅ Public and Private Propagation (16)

This verse shows that Hazrat Nuh (Alaihissalam) tried every possible method to guide his people — including open, public preaching.

From this, we learn:

  • Dawah (inviting to the truth) can be done both privately and publicly.

  • ✅ Using tools like loudspeakers for lectures is permissible, as it's a modern means of public preaching.

  • ✅ Organizing Juloos (processions) in honor of Prophets or Saints is also allowed, as it spreads awareness of their virtues and serves as a form of public propagation.

💡 Lesson: The message of Allah (اللَّهُ ) must be spread in every possible respectful way, both individually and collectively, using wisdom, sincerity, and appropriate platforms.
