What does tabshir (missionary work) mean? What are its aims? And what is Islam's position on it?

"Christianization" is defined as the call by Christians to Muslims and others to embrace their distorted religion. Muslims must stop it, prevent the establishment of Christianizing organizations in their lands, and refrain from cooperating with them. Missionaries take various forms: they may be orientalists, doctors and nurses, experts and technicians, or relief organizations. All of them aim to lead Muslims away from their religion and undermine their faith, exploiting their weakness, poverty, and ignorance.
