Dr. Zakir Naik
Would you trust him enough to be in a room alone with him?
Many people would probably answer no to this question. They would assume he is a terrorist or part of a terrorist group. Why? The flaws he holds are all in how he looks. Just because he is a Muslim and people recognize that because of what he looks like, they will think harshly of him. However what they do not know is that this man’s name is Dr. Zakir Naik and he is an international speaker for Islam and the holdings of the Quran ("Dr Zakir Naik," 2014). Not only does he speak about what is inside the Quran but also he talks about all religions. He is worldly known to have impacted so many people’s lives through his public talks. With having done over 2000 of them in many different countries across the world, Dr. Zakir Naik has helped influence and win over people and help those who were once ignorant about Muslims and the religion which they follow, Islam, that it is loving and peaceful and that the Quran is pure. Although there may be people who are corrupted in the religion, not everyone is and it makes it extremely unfair and bias to categorize everyone involved with Islam as being terrorists. So Dr. Zakir Naik’s flaws are seen to be just how he presents himself and he has no control over that. He chooses to represent his religion proudly, regardless of how people see him. The millions of people who have seen him respect him and his life’s work. He has gone above and beyond to make sure people’s questions get answered and makes sure that everyone is more knowledgeable in the areas they were always in the dark about. He may be one person, but there are plenty of others just like him who have experienced the same judgments.
