Misconceptions about Islam due to Media | Salim Sobhi

The common misconceptions about Islam arise in the
minds of a majority of non-Muslims, because they are
constantly being bombarded with misinformation
about Islam. International media is mainly controlled
by the western world, whether it is international
satellite channels, radio stations, news- papers,
magazines or books. Recently, the Internet has
become a powerful medium of information. Though
it is not controlled by anybody, one finds a large
amount of virulent propaganda about Islam on
the Internet. Of course, Muslims too are utilizing
this tool to portray the right image of Islam and
Muslims, but they are far behind as compared to the
propaganda against Islam. I hope the efforts by the
Muslims will increase and continue to be pursued.
