The mushrikeen tried many techniques to stop the spread of Islam. Including compromise--worship our gods, and we'll worship yours. Ok, fine, just speak highly of our gods, and we'll do the same for yours. And the Prophet (salallahu alayhi wa sallam) stood in front of EVERYBODY in the ka'bah, and he said: ...
If you live in Canada, America, England, etc. then Allah has blessed you with a great opportunity--the opportunity of da'wa. Whether at your work or at your school, someone, somewhere, will ask you why you do something. And THAT is when your five-minute da'wa speech comes in--and you can explain Islam to someone who might never have an opportunity to know!
kibr (pride) is "to reject the truth and to look down upon the people", to reject the truth for example when it comes to you from the source you do not like, when it comes to you from someone perhaps who is not as much upon the right path as you think you are, and to look down upon other people and to disgrace them, this is kibr.
