I love how Veena Malik confronts this cleric and raises some fantastic points – there is so much more to concentrate on in Islam than one actress dressing or acting inappropriately. It’s true and it’s often looked over – Muslims spend so much time defending our faith to the outside world, that we forget to defend our faith to each other.

Terrorism, for example… If you watch the news, all of the muslim councils “condemn” terrorist attacks after they are undertaken, but what is done to prevent them? In Ramzan, multiple media campaigns are run to raise awareness of Ramzan and rozas, but where is the media in discussing the true meaning of “Jihad”? Where is the media in teaching young impressionable Muslims that killing innocent civilians is a sin? What about teaching Muslims that, regardless of whether they disagree with Western values, millions of Muslims live happily and are welcomed in western countries by the same people that they want to kill?

Although the above clip is about defending Pakistan and Pakistani values, Veena Malik brought up some great points about Islam and the role of the clerics in allowing the corruption that exists within this religion to continue.

What an inspiring woman.
