Question:
Is there a difference between calling to Allah and enjoining good and forbidding evil?

Answer:
Calling to Allah is broader than enjoining good. Enjoining good and forbidding evil is a type of calling to Allah. Yes, calling to Allah is broader because it is for the believers and the disbelievers. For the believers, it is for the sinners and those who deviate, and for the disbelievers, it is to enter Islam. As for enjoining good and forbidding evil, this is for the believers when they commit wrongs and sins. Yes.
