The fifth strategy used by the media is they see certain things
which are correct, but the interpretation is wrong.
The media says that Muslims are fundamentalist. And because
Muslims are fundamentalist humanities in a problem. They say
that Muslims are extremist. And because Muslims are extremists,
humanity isn't a problem. They say Islam is an intolerant religion.
And because Islam is an intolerant religion, humanity is in a
problem.
What is the meaning of the word fundamentalist? Fundamentalist by
definition means a person who follows the fundamentals of a
particular subject. For example, for a person to be a good
mathematician, he should know, follow and strive to practice the
fundamentals of math, unless the fundamentalists in the field of
maths he cannot be a good mathematician.
For a person, to be a good scientist, he should know follow
and strive to practice the fundamentals of science, unless
the fundamentalist in the field of science, he cannot be a good
scientist.
You cannot pin all fundamentalists with the same brush that all are
good or all are bad. Depending upon which field the person is a
fundamentalist, you have to label them accordingly. For example,
there's a fundamentalist doctor whose profession is to save human
lives, he's a boon for the society. On the other hand, there
is a fundamental swab, whose profession is to rob he's a band
for the society.
As far as I'm concerned, I am a fundamentalist Muslim, and I am
proud to be a fundamentalist Muslim.
Because I know and I strive to practice the fundamentals for
SLUB. And I know that there is not a single fundamental of Islam,
which is against humanity as a whole.
I challenge any human being to point out a single fundamental of
Islam, which against humanity as a whole.
There may be some fundamentals, which some people might think
they're against humanity, but the moment to give the logical
background, there is not a single fundamental of Islam, which is
against humanity as a whole
