Fariq Naik – The Media is Never Objective in Characterising People, Especially the Muslims

The media is very powerful. And whatever label the media gives a

person that label gets stuck to him

and Allah subhanaw taala say in the clouds Quran it's reminder

Shabnam file a cemetery to man Katella left some behind enough's

all facade and fill all forgotten America NASA Jamia woman, yeah.

NASA Jamia if anyone kills any human being unless it'd be for

murder office petty corruption the land, it is as if he has killed

the entire humanity. And if anyone saves any human life, it is as if

you're saved the entire humanity.

I do not know of any religious scripture, where it says that if

you kill any human being it is as if you have killed the whole of

humanity. Most of the scriptures say that killing an innocent human

being is wrong. But the Glorious Quran goes a step further and says

that if anyone saves any human life, it is as if he has saved the

whole of humanity. The media says that Muslims are terrorists, what

is the meaning of the word terrorist, that is, by definition

means a person who causes terror.

And many times to different labels are given to the same person for

the same activity, about 60 to 70 years back, before India gained

its freedom, there were people who are fighting for the freedom of

the country. And these people by the British government, they will

call us terrorists. Whereas the same people by the common Indians,

they will call us freedom fighters, as patriots, same people

same activity, but to the labels.

If you agree with the view of the British government, that the

British has had the right to rule over India, then you would call

these people as terrorist. Whereas if you agree with the view of the

common Indians, that the British has had come to the trade and

there are no right to rule over us, then you would call these

people as freedom fighters as patriots, same people, same

activity, but two different labels. And you have several

examples. We had the example of the American Revolution that took

place in 1775. George Washington, he was called as status number

one. Later on, when America gets his freedom, George Washington,

he's made the president of USA, imagine terrorists number one,

he's made the president of USA. We have several such examples. We had

the example of Nelson Mandela, South Africa was ruled by the

white apartheid government, Nelson Mandela was imprisoned in Robben

islands for more than 25 years. And Nelson Mandela by the white

apartheid government was color status number one.

Later on, when the white apartheid government is thrown out, and

South Africa gets its freedom, Nelson Mandela is free. And he

gets a Nobel Prize for Peace. Imagine that is number one gets

Nobel Prize for Peace.

It was not that he was bad. Then he became good for the same

activity for which he was called as terrorists he gets a Nobel

Prize for Peace. So here we realize the media it is very

powerful. It can turn black into white white into black hero into

villain villain to hero

the media it is very powerful. And whatever label the media gives a

person that label gets stuck to him.

And Allah subhanaw taala say in the Glorious Quran it's reminder

chapter number five was cemetery to Mankato left some behind

enough's all facade and fill all Fergana. malerkotla NASA Jamia

woman Ah ha ha ha ha NASA Jamia if anyone kills any human being

unless it be for murder offers petty corruption in the land, it

is as if he has killed the entire humanity. And if anyone saves any

human life, it is as if you save the entire humanity.

I do not know of any religious scripture where it says that if

you kill any human being it is as if you have killed the whole of

humanity. Most of the scriptures say that killing an innocent human

being is wrong. But the Glorious Quran goes a step further and it

says that if anyone saves any human life, it is as if he has

saved the whole of humanity.
