If you look at the negative comments I get from the majority of my readers you will see that I generally speak my mind no matter what the reader wants to read.

People who do otherwise are like actors playing in a show seeking the adoration of the audience. Big egos… bigger stories.

keep the voice alive, we are listening to you. Also since your target audience are Muslims why don’t start each post with bismiallah or Assalamu Alaikum?

that’s a pretty powerful quote subhanallah. may Allah make it easy on them, ameen.

I was told I was “idealistic” when writing this post. that may be true, and I really DON’T expect the industry to change, but we as Muslims can stop letting the media dictate to us what we should think is important or not.

There was a very good lecture by Imam Anwar AlAwlaki that I listen to recently on halaltube.com and he was basically talking about defending the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam and the punishment of those who speak bad about him (salallahu alayhi wa sallam)

In the lecture he mentioned the Danish Cartoon incident, and he mentioned that subhnaallah the Kuffar have desensitized us with our media. why? because there have been other instances after this that people have publicly said or did something offensive against the Prophet (sallahu alayhi wa sallam) but since it’s “already happened” our response is a lot less now.

This is the problem with getting the media to tell us what is important and what’s not important. the media tells us that Muslims are “crazy” for their reaction to the cartoons, when in fact the reaction was not even enough for the honor of Rasool Allah, salallahu alayhi wa sallam.

so by all means I’m not expecting a change.. but we can at least change our mentality and be our own gatekeepers, thus keeping us closer to the truth.
wallahu alem.

salam alikom thanks u for the post its sad because sometimes when u do talk about these things everyone pushs u away and doesnot want to deal with u which discourages u and makes u keep it to urself since u are reminding them of hardships of others i remember a quote by a palistanian lady said ” if it bothers u to see this pics on tv it bothers us more to live it every day”
