15. How can we understand and convey the true essence of Islam?

The essence of Islam is tawhid. That is, to believe in One all-powerful God who in the future shall hold us accountable for our actions here on earth. This belief makes one self-conscious about one’s actions. It instils in a person the virtues of honesty, modesty, just and fair dealing.

The best way to convey the true essence of Islam is to become an embodiment of these traits and let your character speak louder than your words.
