Fariq Naik – Unfair Labels Given the Media to Muslims

According to the Webster Dictionary, fundamentalism was

first used to describe a group of American protesting Christians who

protested against the church, the Christian church, it believed that

message the Bible is on call. But these American protests and

questions the protesters and they said that not only the Bible is

the message from God, but every word, every letter, the Bible is

the Word of God. If anyone can prove that every word, every

letter of the Bible is the Word of God, then this moment is a good

movement. Whereas on the other hand, if anyone can prove that

each and every word, every letter of the Bible is not the word of

God, then the movement is not a good movement.

According to Oxford Dictionary, fundamentalist is a person who

strictly adheres to the ancient doctrines of any religion. And the

revised edition of the Oxford Dictionary. Fundamentalists is a

person who strictly adheres to the ancient doctrines of any religion,

especially Islam.

This word, especially Islam has been added in the revised edition

of the Oxford Dictionary. The moment you hear the word

fundamentalist, you start to go for Muslim, you starting off a

terrorist, you start think of an extremist. And many of the Muslims

are apologetic. They say no, no, no, I'm not an extremist. I tell

the people I am an extremist. I'm extremely chi, I'm extremely

merciful. I'm extremely loving. I'm extremely honest, I'm

extremely just what's wrong and be an extremist? Why are we

apologetic? What's wrong with being extremely kind, extremely

honest, extremely, just extremely loving?

Allah Subhan. Allah says in surah baqarah chapter two, verse two 208

Oh, the Hello facility kapha, enter into a slump wholeheartedly,

you can't say partly well, to benefit me, I'll be just and might

not benefit me, I will not be just.

And the media says that Muslims are terrorists, what is the

meaning of the word terrorist? Tell us by definition means a

person who causes terror.

And many times, two different labels are given to the same

person for the same activity, about 60 to 70 years back, before

India gain its freedom. There were people who were 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 were called as 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 Britishers 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 such

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 has 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,

when 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, he 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
