 Dawah Committee of Kowloon Masjid has been serving for decades to inspire Non-Muslims by enhancing their awareness about the golden principles of Islam. Particularly since 2008, the committee’s operation has been more active and effective.

The committee operates under the supervision of the Incorporated Trustees of the Islamic Community Fund of Hong Kong. Every year, two Open Days are organized on which invitation is extended to everyone, especially to Non-Muslims to visit Kowloon Masjid to learn more about Islam -- a complete way of life. On these Open Days, participants are provided with Islamic Books and other learning materials published in English and Chinese languages. Masjid tour is also arranged and visitors are provided with comprehensive briefing about the operation of the Masjid and the Islamic Centre. By the grace of Allah (s.w.t.) visitors always bring back a very positive impression about Islam after attending the Open Days.

The Committee also organizes two regular courses namely Elementary Islamic Course and Intermediate Islamic Course throughout the year. Each course lasts for 12 weeks. Classes are conducted on Saturdays afternoon between Zuhur and Asr prayers. Lecture, PowerPoint and Video presentations are delivered in English and Chinese languages in the well-equipped Conference Hall of the Masjid. As a result of the dedicated efforts contributed by the members of the Dawah Committee, number of participants has increased to 103 and 56 in the recent Elementary Islamic Course conducted in Chinese and English languages respectively.

At the end of each course, certificates of completion are awarded to participants with 70% or above attendance. We are pleased to share that as a result of the dedicated efforts invested by the Kowloon Masjid Dawah Committee, many Non-Muslims converted to Islam after being inspired and enlightened by the golden principles of Islam. Currently Mr. Matin Farooqi is serving as the Chairman of the Dawah Committee. The committee has more than twenty members who work selflessly for the noble cause of Dawah. May Allah (s.w.t.) accept their great efforts (Ameen) !
