00:00:00 --> 00:00:04
			The number one strategy that is
used by the media in order to
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:09
			malign Islam is the pick up black
sheep of the Muslim community. And
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:13
			they portray these people as
though they are exemplary Muslims
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			that are black sheep in every
community, but they'd be the
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			Christian community, whether it be
the Hindu community, whether it be
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:23
			the Jewish community, but the
media picks up these black sheep
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			and portrays as to the exemplary
Muslim, for example, there is the
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:35
			latest Mercedes car, s 450, or s
500, the s 450, the 2022 or 2023
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:39
			model. And in order to test drive
this car you put behind the
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:43
			steering wheel, an inexperienced
driver, and he bangs up the car,
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:47
			who will you blame the car or the
driver, but naturally you will
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:51
			blame the driver. If you want to
know how good the scar is, look at
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:54
			the specifications and if you want
to practically judge how good the
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:58
			car is put behind the steering
wheel and expert driver.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:02
			Similarly, if you want to judge
how good Islam is, read the
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:06
			Glorious Quran. And if you want to
practically judge how good Islam
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:11
			is, do not look at the followers
look at the best human being who
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			ever walked on the face of the
earth. That is our beloved Prophet
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:18
			Muhammad may peace and blessings
be upon read his Syrah and we
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:23
			shall realize that Islam is a
solution for humanity.
