APPROVED Topic
(Hypocritical Media)

Starting with the most powerful sentences:

There is no god accept Allah.

Allah is the greatest!
Hypocritical media:
A two-faced media, which is not independent and always works for the benefit of others, usually owns
contradiction and defames a true or positive image in a society,
One of the biggest challenges Muslims facing these days in the world is hypocritical media. Muslims in
large quantity are being defamed and insulted by the term “Terrorists”. It is just because Muslims
implement the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
There are many terms used in many newspapers and sites for Muslims, which are illegal according to
humanity. They just mean to hide the true face of a Muslim community.
These days media is covering the entire world, it owns the opinions and thinking of all human kinds, so
the media spreads false news, introduces something in a wrong way, hides reality, stands with powerful
communities and listens to what is for their benefits.
Why is such kind of media a big challenge for Muslims?

 As a hypocritical media always shows the next side of something, it always spreads the

Immorality, according to Islam, Muslims must stay away from immorality.

 Most commonly, such media brings anxiety and hypertension, so in most cases it looks difficult
to get out of the tough situation.
 Muslims property and wealth occupation by some states and the unawareness spreading of
hypocritical media.
 Avoiding human resources and human rights news for any Muslim community.
 Remaining busy in its improper and unbeneficial entertainments.

What are the reasons?

Muslims forget the point, what purpose they are born for. They gave higher rank and importance to this
living rather than the Dooms day.
They do not unite and assemble for their issues, now they guess, they are supposed to complete a task or
solve the major issues individually.
They forgot to live as a passenger in this world and returns to Allah (SWT) immediately. It means we try
to find ways to look for ease and a luxurious life. This made us more neglect.
The other huge reason is the silence; Muslims do not attempt to protect the religion Islam and their
slogan.

Places where media has played very negative roles:

1. Palestine

Many innocent Palestinians are being killed without any crime .their land is occupied about hundreds of
kilometres; they are effected by the biological weapons such as chlorine and nitrogen gases still the
most part of media is not showing the oppression of Israel and their bloody activities. Global
communities and organisations are silent to raise for their rights and to listen the Palestinians.

2. Afghanistan: a county being remained in war for some decades.

Yet the media has not played positive role to give a reflection to Afghans screams.
Millions of Afghans killed, thousands of them became disabled and millions of them got widows.
The roles, which media play in American and European countries, are not played same as in the
Islamic states.
3. Kashmir:

One of the Islamic geography that is brutally seized and the nation of Kashmir live in the darkness. In
spite, the media must have played its required role and the responsibility to stand and support the
Kashmiri nation.

These days they are not even the headlines of a newspaper. These are the dependant Media that never
stood behind this innocent nation. Because the world bloody organizations have already owned and
bought the great news channels, studios and the media in whole.

Hypocritical media’s effection in Islamic societies:

 Financial effection:

It is very clear that the majority of Muslim traders deal with the western countries; they have long-term
business relations with most of the European and American or even some Asian companies. Therefore,
with the unreal rumors from the side of media has always cancelled the plans and contracts.

These days Islamic states’ finance partners are decreased in a business table, it is due to the
miscommunication of media and besides the false spreading of doubts in all the business relations.

All the people are reading and listening to new media, they are almost addicted to believe in whatever
news channel broadcast.

 psychological effection:

Media has created psychological situations for we Muslims.

Everyday listening to its rumors and false news just made us almost mental.

Day by day, our inner happiness is ruined and we get into a situation in which we cannot know the
difference of good and bad.

Our ambitions and convenience is disappeared it just due to the majority of business dependant
hypocritical media.
They mostly spread those aspects and rumors for which the Muslims get hurt while listening our reading
their articles.

 Effection of immorality:

This is a fact that most of the announcements and advertisements are based on immoral shapes they all
are promoted by media with specific plans in order to inspire the young generation’s emotions and
feelings.

Due to this effection the Hijab and shy, these two main things are disappeared day by day by the
immoral activities of media.

The hypocritical media effect our young, they almost believe in their articles.

Another great issue that is by immorality the media improves their job criteria, they never care the
generation, what they care is just their benefit.

 Effection on worship:

Because of too many useless entertainments, the Muslims have become much lazy.

They are getting weakness by the useless entertainments and improper broadcasting of things by the
media. We can imagine the laziness and weakness in the worship, because majority of us are busy in
unbeneficial activities.

Actually the media has changed the opinion and thinking of Muslims from worshiping Allah to such
things which has no profits.

 Effection on insurance and trust:

Because of too much false broadcasting and hypocrisy, the trust is gone among Muslims.

We Muslims do not believe well one and another, because we are cheated so many times, it is just
because the wrong media has played very negative role in the societies.

They created an environment of full of lies, cheat and betraying.

We can watch the conflicts in the families between one and another.

Why these conflicts created?

Because the kindness and sympathy, brotherhood and trust, everything is just almost ruined the great
cause is the media negative sides.

Solutions:
 Unity:
  We can gain so much just by uniting in good. Our Prophet (saw) was a man of unity. He
ensured that he spread love and kindness wherever he went, and just through these
actions, he attracted millions of people to join the religion of Islam. The power of unity is
so vast, that just by coming together, we can change lives. We can uplift those who are
feeling down and we can create a sense of belonging to those vulnerable and those who
feel alone.

In addition, Allah (SWT) says in Quran:  “And obey Allah and His messenger, and dispute not one
with another lest ye falter and your strength depart from you; but be steadfast!
Surah Al Anfal 46.

 Stay real and do not cheat:

Muhammad (SAW) addresses: “Whoever cheats us is not one of us.” The Muslim ruler has to
reprimand the person who cheats with what will make him defer from cheating, and punish him
until he becomes straight and correct, and he will be an example for others.
Imam Ali says: Do not betray anyone who places his trust in you, even if he betrays you.
And do not disclose his secrets, even if he discloses yours. -Imam Ali (AS).

What generally Islam says about chat and betraying ?

Cheating and deception are despicable characteristics that are beneath a decent person. Intentionally
distorting the truth in order to mislead others contradicts the values of honesty, which requires an
attitude of sincerity, straightforwardness, and fairness that leaves no room for cheating, lying, trickery,
or deceit. There are many texts from the Qur'an and the Sunnah conveying the meaning that cheating,
whether the target be Muslims or non-Muslims, is forbidden.
Accepting the guidance of Islam leads a person to truthfulness, which means a person completely avoids
cheating and backstabbing. The Prophet of Islam said:
“Whoever bears arms against us is not one of us, and whoever cheats us is not one of us.” (Saheeh
Muslim)
According to another report, the Prophet passed by a pile of food in the market. He put his hand inside
it and felt dampness, although the surface was dry. He said:
‘O owner of the food, what is this?’ The man said, ‘It was damaged by rain, O Messenger of God.’
He said, ‘Why did you not put the rain-damaged food on top so that people could see it! Whoever
cheats us is not one of us.” (Saheeh Muslim)
Muslim society is based on purity of feeling, love, sincerity toward every Muslim, and fulfillment of
promises to every member of society. Its members are endowed with piety, truthfulness, and
faithfulness. Cheating and deception are alien characters in contrast to the noble character of a true
Muslim.

 Worship Allah in a true way:

We worship Allah because worship brings taqwa, and taqwa brings everything to this life:
meaning, stability, values, everything comes from taqwa. Finally yet importantly, we worship
Allah because in His worship, we will gain His pleasure, and that is Jannah, and abstain of His
punishment, and that is Jahannam.

O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous
(2:21)

And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship me.

This is the primary and only purpose of our creation.

First of all search the fact and then believe
