British Muslims should take<br />
example from US Muslims<br />
An American Muslim advocacy<br />
group (CAIR) launched a massive<br />
advertisement campaign in New York<br />
City’s infamous Times Square in a bid<br />
to present to millions of Americans<br />
a “fair” and “accurate” portrayal of<br />
Islam. The ad is expected to run on<br />
New Year’s Eve when at least one<br />
million will gather for celebrations.<br />
This shows how advance US<br />
Muslims are in portraying the true<br />
religion, like it or not mast majority<br />
of UK non Muslims still see Islam<br />
as a violent religion, mainly down<br />
to the mainstream UK media’s<br />
false coverage and also their own<br />
ignorance to learn the true Islam<br />
through the Sunnah and Quran.<br />
Why can’t the British Muslim do<br />
the same have a massive campaign<br />
leading up to New Year eve in the<br />
heart of London, it is time British<br />
Muslims did more to educate non<br />
Muslims of our faith to tell them that<br />
this religion is pure safe and nothing<br />
to be scared of, let’s send out the<br />
same message that US Muslims are<br />
doing.<br />
I think it’s time?<br />
