Why tarnish the image of Dr. Zakir Naik?

This refers to the article "Zia to Zakir" (INKSIGHT by Mehmood-ur-Rashid). I congratulate the author for the articulation and craft used by him to shape his prejudice to belittle, discredit and disrespect a world renowned scholar Dr. Zakir Naik. I can not say that the author is a novice or immature, More

Driving force

 This refers to the article “Zia to Zakir” (INKSIGHT by Mehmood-ur-Rashid). It is very clear that author has a prejudiced view towards Dr. Zakir Naiq.

Overburdened innocence

 This refers to the article titled “Overburdened innocence” by Dr Faiz Fazili (GK June 10). The author has very rightly tried to draw a sketch of our society, its culture and unhealthy competition prevalent among our younger generation. It is really very unfortunate that, today, for most of More

Irresponsible approach

 As the whole Kashmir was simmering on recent gruesome killings, the Chief Minister was holidaying first at Leh and then at Gulmarg.

Death dances

 This refers to the write-up “As the death dances….” by Dr. Tasleem A. War (GK 22-06-2010). I fully agree with the writer. There is no denying that we are devoid of conscience. Politicians always blackmail us emotionally and we always get carried away by their enticing speeches. We are always fooled More

Unjustified move

 This recent decision by the British Government not to allow world renowned scholar Dr. Zakir Naik to enter the country is completely unjustified. Dr. Zakir was to deliver a series of lectures on “Islam and freedom of expression”. Every person has the right to visit any country and the persons like More

Take stand

 This refers to the article titled ‘’A Letter once more’’ by Fida Iqbal. It was a nice piece of writing. The author has rightly highlighted one year of Omer led Government.

Peace mission

 This refers to the article titled ‘’ From Zia to Zakir Naik’’ (GK 24 June) by Mehmood-Ur-Rashid. I think Zakir Naik is on peace mission. As a speaker on Islam, it is his duty to guide the misguided people. I don’t agree with Mehmood’s comments. Shah Fahad Ahmed BBA 3rd year More
