Who to give dawat to?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Who do we have to give dawat to? Do we start with ourself first, the Ummah or disbelievers?

Bismillaah

A: Dawat is possible if you know and understand what you need to give dawat for. Hence with regards to this aspect it starts from you. If you don’t know what to invite towards then what are you going to invite towards. Thereafter people who are closest to you then work with them and work with others, more on the ones who are closer and easier.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
