Rafiq ibn Jubair
For too long, we have allowed Muslims to be dehumanised, to be portrayed as a threat and as outsiders who have nothing to contribute to society.
What drove a 17-year-old and a 19-year-old to kill Muslims at their place of worship? Video after video, post after post on social media and mainstream media showing Muslims in a bad light.
This is why it is incumbant upon all of us to support Muslim platforms like ilmfeed, OnePath Network and 5 Pillars who are fighting the media war.
We can’t expect others to tell our stories, we have to do it ourselves.
ilmfeed has been focussing on publishing videos and posts that humanises Muslims; stories that shows Muslims giving back to their communities and highlight Muslims who risk their own lives to save others.
Muslims don’t do those things to be accepted but they do it for the sake of Allah – because that is their duty as a Muslim.
But we need to amplify these stories more than ever.
Recently, ilmfeed crossed 1 billion views but that was just the start. ilmfeed needs your support to keep covering these stories and reach even more people around the world.
