QUEST FOR PEACE
“War for Peace” has become the unjust
slogan of many tyrants and oppressors on
this earth. True Peace seems to elude
humankind.
Entertainment and Corporate Media does
not provide the peace it proclaims. It has in
reality made the people more fearful, lustful,
violent and greedy. Escapism from faith in
God, humane values and good deeds is their
mirage.
Islam means “Peace” – internal and external.
It is essential, therefore, to know, practise
and propagate Islam to attain peace in this
life and the hereafter.
MEDIA AND ISLAM
Islam, today, is the most misunderstood
religion. It bears the brunt of
misconceptions and hate propaganda.
The powerful mass media, aligned to
deceitful political and corporate interests,
spreads these misconceptions virulently...
worldwide.
While portraying Islam, integrity and
reliability are bypassed by the media with
professional charm and finesse.
Wise and apt Islamic viewpoints are seldom
covered in the mainstream media, whereas
aberrations by a few misled Muslims are
highlighted.
Muslims hardly have any hold or influence
on major media, especially TV. They instead,
exhibit an apologetic attitude and an
inferiority complex.
REACH OF THE TV MEDIA
Today, more 20,000 TV stations around the
globe reach out to 5 billion people
worldwide. Such that TV plays a major role
in shaping public opinion.
With more than US $ 400 billion invested in
TV productions and distribution alone, it is
serious business laden with cut-throat
competition, political manipulations and
corporate interests.
Global scale media mergers in the industry
have led to limiting the viewpoints having
access to mass media, specially the Islamic
viewpoint.
This scenario needs to be countered with a
global reach for the truth of Islam. As the
Qur’an (Ch. 21, V. 18) advises us:
“When truth is hurled against falsehood,
falsehood perishes, for falsehood by its
nature is bound to perish”.
