The power behind Islam teaching is its dialog method which is implemented in everyday life starting from family to a national level.
 
"Islam`s strength is in the dialog method in spreading goodness in a face to face conversation," Al Markaz Al Islamy Mosque coordinator, H Rahman Getteng, said here Thursday.<>

He said that the example of teaching children by a dialog was explained in one of the holy Koran`s rulings, Al-Imran.

The approach by a father,Imran, to his child, was done by giving advice or dialog, and not by force.

"That is a small example on the dialog method in a family," he said. Meanwhile at a national level, prophet Mohammad was always applying such method in dealing with his followers.

Rahman said to approach a nation leader or other groups, Mohammad always applied this method in the teaching the truth.

Even, to a religious prisoner, Islam taught to make a dialog approach or giving advice for improvement.

"The method developed in Islam was developed by the west known as negotiations or discussions in dealing with international conflicts," he said. (dar)
