Abstract

Religious preachers are the successors of the prophets and divine saints, whose primary goal in propagation is to guide society toward human and ethical values, ultimately enhancing people's religiosity. In the tradition of the prophets and saints, the mission is to save people from tyrants, carnal desires, ignorance, division, and polytheism while inviting them to faith in God and the Day of Judgment. Religious preachers can only achieve effective propagation if they are aware of their responsibilities and the needs of their audience, enabling them to establish constructive and sincere communication. Achieving these fundamental objectives, maintaining proper interaction with audiences, and utilizing appropriate methods and skills in propagation will contribute to the growth of religiosity in society. This study employs a qualitative approach, using documentary and library research methods for data collection. The findings indicate that religious preachers must thoroughly understand various social challenges and, by recognizing their audience and effective communication strategies, employ diverse methods and skills to enhance religiosity and take significant and effective steps toward reducing social harm.
