The topic of my talk is misconceptions about Islam. It is
the duty of every Muslim to do da da is compulsory on every Muslim.
And the way it is strategies of conveying the message of Islam,
some are less effective, others are more effective.
The most common strategy is that when a Muslim, he meets a non
Muslim, he speaks to him 100 good points about Islam.
Even if the non Muslim he agrees with all the 100 good points that
have been spoken, yet at the back of his mind, he will have a few
negative points.
He may think that yeah, I agree with what you have spoken. But you
are the same Muslim who's a terrorist, you are the same Muslim
was a fundamentalist, you are the people who marry more than one
woman.
These few negative point at the back of his mind will prevent him
from accepting the beauty of Islam.
That is the reason when I meet a non Muslim what I prefer, I asked
him upfront, what does he feel is wrong with Islam? With the limited
knowledge whether right or wrong? What does he feel is wrong with
Islam, and I make him comfortable that he can criticize Islam, he
can attack Islam, and after he is made comfortable, he poses three
or four questions.
And these questions they invariably fall in the 20 most
common questions, there are a set of 20 most common questions asked
by non Muslims regarding Islam.
So these three or four questions, they invariably fall in the 20
most common questions to these 20 most common questions, they are
the same wherever you go, but they go to UK, USA, Canada, Malaysia,
Pakistan, these 20 most common questions they are the same.
And today, in the international media, there is villain propaganda
about Islam in the international media.
Whether it be the news channel, whether it be the radio broadcast
stations, whether it be the newspaper, there is virulent
propaganda about Islam in the international media, and depending
upon how the media it portrays Islam, these misconceptions, they
arise in the minds of non Muslims.
So every Muslim, he should be aware of these 20 most common
questions with reasonable logic and science with references from
the Glorious Quran, authentic Hadees and the major world
religious scriptures. So if every Muslim is aware of the 20 most
common questions, even if he cannot convert the non Muslim, at
least he can utilize the animosities that is there in the
minds of these non Muslims and these 20 most common questions
they are available on the website, www dot Iref dotnet.
As far as today's talk is concerned, I will not be
discussing all the 20 most common questions. I will only discuss the
last seven among the 20 most common questions, but I will
discuss the first 13 questions without giving the reply.
The first misconception is regarding the word jihad.
The second misconception is that Muslims are fundamentalists.
The third misconception is that Muslims are terrorists.
The fourth misconception is that Islam was spread by the soul.
The fifth most common question is that why does it slob permit a man
to have more than one wife? Why is polygyny or polygamy permitted in
Islam?
Six most common question is that if Islam allows a Muslim man to
have more than one wife, then why can't a woman have more than one
husband?
The seventh most common question is that why does Islam subjugate
the woman by keeping her behind the way?
The eighth most common question is that why do we Muslims have non
vegetarian food?
The ninth misconception is that if you Muslims you have non
vegetarian food. So why do we kill the animal so ruthlessly so
painfully with this method?
Why don't we do the jack committed one Jack calf attack the animals
kill that stunning method.
The 10th misconception is
that today's science tells us that what we eat it has an effect on
our behavior. So we Muslims, we eat animals and we behave like
animals.
The 11th most common question is that since Islam is against idol
worship, so why do we Muslims bow down to the Kaaba Muslims? We are
the biggest idol worshippers. The 12 most common question is that if
Islam is a universal religion, so why are non Muslims not allowed in
the holy cities of Makkah and Medina
the 13th most common question is that why does Islam prohibit
having poke? As far as today's talk is concerned? I will only be
discussing the remaining seven misconceptions out there in the
minds of non Muslims
