And sufficient is Allah as Accountant.”

2300 missionaries were sent by Jamia az-Zahra in the past year

The president of Jamia az-Zahra added, “We managed to prepare the grounds for working of the female missionaries, and this seminar is a step in this regard.

We are not to solely treat missionaries, but we should also enter the field of sending missionaries

In the policy-making council and board of trustees we announced that we should send missionaries to teach people across the country.

Missionaries should talk to their audience with an understandable and simple tongue

Hujjat al-Islam Madani said, the missionaries should talk to their audience through an understandable language so that the young generation and the target of the mission understands their message simply and clearly.

The missionaries should acquire skills continuously

Hujjat al-Islam Madani said, “in order to impact the society, the missionaries should always continue acquiring new skills. The skills meant here is the speaking skill, or talking simply and effectively to the audience.”

Missionaries should propagate the Heavenly books and word

Hujjt al-Islam Madani stressed, “We should propagate Quran, tradition and the words of Ahl al-Bayt (AS), and the words and works of the scholars.”

Missionaries set Hazrat Zahra as their example

The president of Jamia az-Zahara reiterated, “A missionary or a speaker can change the direction of a man and even a word has this influence.”

He then said, “The international propagation should be conducted peacefully and kindly, the missionary should act as the messengers of the kindness, avoid the disputes and focus on the common grounds.”

Attention to the Hijab and coverage of the missionary/people regard the conduct of the missionaries as the criteria

He finally stressed, “Your Chador is a propagation and people regard you as a lady, member of Jamia az-Zahra, they know us as the criteria, and in case of acting wrongly, we should be responsible before God.”
