About Muslim Professionals in Da’wah
Redefining and expanding the scope of Islamic Da’wah in contemporary Nigeria since 2008 by uniting professionals from medicine, engineering, law, education, and commerce.
Who We Are & Why MPD Was Formed
Muslim Professionals in Da’wah (MPD) was founded in 2008 and registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission under registration number CAC/IT/NO 32379.
For a long time, a narrow narrative prevailed that Da’wah is confined strictly to those with formal Islamic scholarship — Imams, Ustazs, or Huffaz. MPD came on board to fundamentally transform this perception by promoting the understanding that every Muslim is a Da’ee in their own capacity.
“Just as a person’s refined appearance is not the product of a single artisan — the tailor who made the clothes, the shoemaker, and the designer of the wristwatch all come together to produce that refined look — so too does Islam require the collective effort of different professionals to present its true beauty to the world.”
Our Vision
To convey the true, compassionate message of Islam to the doorstep of every Nigerian.
Our Mission
To garner the support and collective resources of various Da’wah organizations, institutions, professionals, and philanthropists for the advancement of Islam through strategic collaboration, sustainable initiatives, and impactful Da’wah programs.
The 8 Core Beliefs of MPD
These principles form the strategic and moral foundation of all our national initiatives.
Collective Obligation
Da’wah is the collective responsibility of every Muslim, regardless of profession, social status, or educational background.
Profession as an Amana (Trust)
Every profession is a sacred trust from Allah and should be utilized in seeking His pleasure and advancing the cause of Islam.
Universal Accessibility
The true message of Islam should be accessible to every Nigerian, irrespective of ethnicity, language, culture, or geographical location.
Synergy over Isolation
Unity and collaboration among Da’wah organizations are far more effective than isolated efforts in achieving sustainable Islamic growth.
Professional Excellence & Ethics
Professional excellence and Islamic ethics are inseparable, and together they present the authentic, compelling beauty of Islam.
Wisdom, Knowledge & Character
Knowledge, wisdom, compassion, and exemplary moral character are the most effective instruments of Da’wah in contemporary society.
Strategic Resource Management
Sustainable Da’wah requires strategic planning, accountability, partnerships, and transparent stewardship of resources.
Service to Humanity
Serving humanity is an integral part of serving Islam, and every act of sincere social service is a profound invitation to Allah.
