Islamophobia: Lindsay Lohan, religion and modernization.

The world has become chaotic and unsafe. Wars have engulfed the nations and countries. There is a visible assault on Muslims, and Muslims themselves are blamed for this stabbing. Actually, wars are fought on Muslim soils with purpose to formalize the concepts of “democracy”, “freedom of mankind,” “freedom of speech” and “women emancipation”. Horrible carnage has been perpetuated in Syria, Iraq and Libya for democracy to flourish. Media campaigns have been launched to promote specific version of “freedom of speech” and “women emancipation”. The ultimate aim of all this, is to persecute Muslims and erode the fair image of Islam. The leaders of these wars and campaigns United States and its allies themselves do not have “concepts of freedom” functioning in their own states. It appears a one sided campaign launched to tarnish the image of Islam. 
   
The case of lindsy Lohan, an American actress, uncovers the hypocritical and prejudicial face of so called “apostles of freedom”. Lindsay Lohan was photographed carrying a copy of the Holy Koran after her first day of community service in Brooklyn, New York. The starlet had to complete 125 hours of community service handed down to her following a 2012 car crash in Los Angeles. The copy of the holy Quran in her hand infuriated the American media. They portrayed her villain, as if she were stabbing the people of the United States of America. Lindsay caught in trouble because she just had the intention to learn something. If American media themselves are an apostle of “freedom to act” and “freedom to think” than, why they started persecuting young actress who just had a noble desire to learn.

If the so called “civilized world” considers that, there must be freedom to act, then why learning/following Islam or taking veil is not freedom? In reality, they have self-serving definitions of “freedom” whatever comply with this definition is considered freedom and rest is suppressed. Every rational person will amaze at the attitude of the American media that they maintained against their own celebrity. Lindsay Lohan herself perplexed by this extreme behavior, she maintained in an interviews that “But this is just me holding it, with me walking going. Whereas, the paparazzi maybe across the street, I didn’t know and they crucified me for it, in America. They made me seem like Satan. I was bad person for holding that Quran. I felt so unsafe in my own country after that. And just because this is my belief, if this is something I want to learn, this is my personal my own will, this is not for you to express. If you want to say it keeps it to yourself.  

It can be discerned from such attitudes, that so-called “civilized world” promotes freedom against Islam. They do not care privacy, emotions and self desires of humans. All these terms are good to promote hate against Islam.  This is because, they bears the prejudice and want to malign Islam, they are afraid that, if a person with his inner desire starts to understand the true teachings of Islam than, its discolored version, they have spread through their own proxies will be exposed and they will have to lick the dust. 
This antagonistic attitude can also be understood from another case. The world community “crucified women” (As Lindsay Lohan said in her own case. In another case, She had to face investigation at London airport because she had taken Hijab) who wear “Hijab”. If women wear “Hijab” she is a “fundamentalist”, she has no “right to act freely”. A campaign launched against her, to get off her Hijab. On the contrary, a woman without “Hijab” is considered moderate. If a nun in church wears “Scarf” she is neutral and moderate, but when a Muslim woman takes “Veil” she is fundamentalist. Similarly, if a bearded man does some violent act, it is portrayed as Muslim. One can ask, does Jews or person belong to other religions, not allow beards to grow on their own face?

A lady who was the darling of millions became loathsome by holding Holy Quran; it means the world wisdom is in question. One can freely go to church, but when he visits mosque he became suspicious. Thousands of Muslims bombed by allied forces (Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Iraq) but Muslims themselves are considered warmongers, they are persecuted, killed, forced to leave their homes and their women raped (Kashmir, Palestine, Burma, India) no form of freedom came to their rescue. If Muslims raise their voice against their persecutions they are considered extremists. Killing Muslim is not extremism raising voice against killings is extremism. This is called double standards.

So, if one understands that religion is real peace and spiritualism, then he must be free to understand all religions and to follow whichever he likes. One cannot force one to follow Christianity or Islam. If Lindsay Lohan thinks that she feels peace in spiritualism and feels more secure under Islam than, who is American media or so called American liberals interfere in her personal life. She expressed her feelings in an interview saying that “That is why it is amazing here. You can choose what you want and its accepted. Whereas I am in America holding Quran and I’m the devil”. “I’m feeling insecure after returning to America after living under peaceful religion of Islam”

When one attached to truth, it brings peace of mind and soul. Hypocrisy, envy and hate are troubles for body and soul. Every real and pure thing brings peace of mind and soul. Whatever one can do, one cannot besmear the truth. Islam is the religion of truth and peace and it really brings peace of mind and soul for troubled people. It is not Islam that western media displayed after 9/11 attacks. Islam is “a complete code of life” with its glorious history and strong moral and spiritual basis.
