    Muslims are happy to speak out and say that their religion is anything BUT terrorist-oriented. The only problem is that the media desperately needs a bad guy, and Muslims have to take the rap :(. As for appearing on television, I don’t think it’s sinning to do so because television is a form of education as well, and Muslims on television spreading word about their religion should be considered a good thing. Islam encourages education of all kinds, as long as that education doesn’t overtake a Muslim’s need for his own, religious education. Basically, religious education is a priority, but other education doesn’t lag behind either. That’s why I don’t think it’s a sin for Muslims to appear on television, it’s important because the media has distorted Islam through television, so Muslims should let people get the facts right through television as well. Muslims do try to organise themselves, but for some reason, they don’t get great coverage through the media… I guess they really need a scrap dog, don’t they?
