Abstrak
Abstract;
Dakwah adalah kewajiban yang harus ditegakkan oleh umat Islam, kapan dan dimana pun mereka berada. Dakwah dapat dilaksanakan dalam berbagai bentuk, misalnya melalui perbuatan (akhlak), tutur kata (lisan), dan melalui tulisan (surat kabar). Surat kabar adalah suatu penerbitan yang ringan dan mudah dibuang, biasanya dicetak pada kertas berbiaya rendah yang disebut kertas Koran, yang berisi berita-berita terkini dalam berbagai topik. Secara umum ciri-ciri pers (baik cetak maupun elektronik) adalah menyangkut prosesnya yang berlangsung satu arah, komunikatornya melembaga, pesannya bersifat umum, medianya menimbulkan keserempakan dan komunikannya heterogen. Antara media cetak dengan media elektronik memiliki perbedaan yang khas. Berdakwah melalui surat kabar, hendaknya disampaikan dengan penuh hikmah, dengan cara yang baik, lemah lembut, dan penuh kesabaran serta dengan argument terbaik sesuai dengan Alquran surah An Nahl ayat 125. Berdakwah melalui surat kabar erat kaitannya dengan tiga komponen yang akan mempengaruhi berhasilnya media surat kabar yaitu pemilik modal, pemimpin redaksi, dan wartawan yang harus berjalan seiring agar dakwah tetap eksis melalui surat kabar. Keberadaan surat kabar menjadi peluang mas bagi juru dakwah untuk mengambil bagian di dalamnya dengan mengisi pesan-pesan agama bagi masyarakat karena konsumsi masyarakat tentang dakwah tidak akan pernah pupus. Perkembangan pers dewasa ini di samping menggembirakan juga menghawatirkan karena dapat memunculkan penyakit kecemasan informasi disebabkan ketidakmampuan khalayak mengola informasi tersebut sehingga masyarakat dapat saja menerima limbah informasi yang tidak bermanfaat bagi dirinya karena arus informasi ternyata sangat sukar dikendalikan.
