Abstract
The article explores the crucial role of da'wah, the process of conveying Islamic teachings, in fostering understanding, harmony, and transformation within multicultural societies, specifically focusing on Nabire Regency in Central Papua, Indonesia. Da'wah serves as a means of spreading the tenets of Islam, bridging cultural divides, and building a civil society where diverse communities coexist peacefully. This research employs a qualitative approach, specifically Participatory Action Research (PAR). Informants were selected using a purposive technique. Data collection methods included interviews, observations, and document analysis. To ensure the validity of the research data, source triangulation and method triangulation were employed. The study's findings reveal that the Indonesian Council of Ulama (MUI) in Nabire Regency has implemented various forms of da’wah actualization in multicultural societies. They aim to convey their message in a compassionate manner to reach all segments of the Muslim community, ensuring that their da’wah resonates with everyone.
