i m writing from memory : many non-Muslims believe , God is so holy , it's not possible for Him to understand how we ( earthy people ) feel pain , sorrow etc.
That's the reason they believe God came/comes in to this world to understand the feelings of human being.
when we buy VCR , we buy it with instruction manual. How to open it , how to stop etc, etc.
vcr maker knows well how to operate the machine & we listen to him. The maker does not need to transform himself to a vcr to understand how the machine should be operated.
God knows His Creations & He sent the guide book for human being . God does not need to be a human being to understand our pain.
show them how its a tru religion in ur own path
Anyone who's seen the discussion i put forward in dawah, i usually push it towards the 3 main concepts we mentioned on the first page.I usually cover them areas because they're mentioned many times in the Qur'an and are explained in detail.
1) Tawhid - Oneness of Allaah; His Lordship, Worship and Names and Attributes.
2) Prophethood - who convey the message, and they call to good; worshipping the Creator and Sustainer Alone, establishing the prayer, enjoining good, forbidding evil. Enjoining family ties. Helping the needy, paying charity etc. Especially on areas where mankind differed - they bring guidance to that.
3) After life - hellfire, paradise; descriptions of each.
I also do it because it's the main important issue really, and the secondary issues about hijaab, beard, terrorism etc. all fall into it later. They're only required once you become muslim. Obviously it is good to know the basics about these issues too, incase you need to clear up a misconception - that doesn't mean you shouldn't still discuss Tawhid though.
Another reason why i focus on them areas alot is because i feel more comfortable with them, and studying the lives of the Prophets and what they called to. And since i find their stories interesting anyway, i don't mind discussing it with others. I feel comfortable with it alhamdulilah, so i stick to that subject more often.
Prophets of Islam
Prophet Muhammad (P)
Companions of the Prophet

Oh yeah, the tip on smiling is really good masha Allaah.
Try it, you can tell the person its a joke. But smile really big and say;
"i hate you!"
they'll still laugh back because actions speak louder than words.
giving dawa to a non-practicing muslim is a painthey just don't seem to understand anything.

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullaah
to be honest the comfort of giving dawah isnt related to the faith of the person, but rather the charasteristics and personality of the person. Ive given dawah to people from hinduism to atheism and felt equally comfortable because the people were equally approachable... thats what matters.
Its harder if they seem stubborn and stuck up, but ive roasted a few of those pigs aswell lol.
No insult intended, Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullaah
