Generally, this is a field research about the aspect of Islamic 'dakwah'. This research also studies the role of one of the dakwah organizations in Malaysia, namely Pertubuhan Kebajikan Islam Malaysia (PERKIM) in helping the 'muallafs' in Pulau Pinang. Besides that, it also discusses the activities organized by PERKIM for the 'muallafs', the problems faced by the PERKIM organization and problems faced by the 'muallafs' after converting to Islam. It also focuses on two-target groups, the PERKIM organization and the 'muallafs' who study in PERKIM. Questionnaires and interviews were the tools used for data gathering purposes. These indicate that the PERKIM organization must cooperate with other dakwah organizations to produce a quality dais. Besides that, the society also must give its support and cooperation to PERKIM to ensure that it will achieve its goals in order to propagate the Islamic dakwah. Besides that, this research tries to investigate and explain the problem that faced by PERKIM and muallaf.
