#533: - allah the guider

it seems like every one is now quiet on this TV issue.

the only ones to speak will be Majlisul Ulama of P.E., which unfortunately many people do not take too seriously...

is this issue going to become like the radio islam issue? where it is sort of 'accepted' to be ok... nobody talks about women on air, etc. (except for a handful), in fact even those who dont agree with their wrongs and say this is wrong with them anfd that is wrong with them also have the radio blasting 24/7 or at least for a major part of the day in their homes and busineeses...

will this become the attitude to islamic TV channels?

pepole will say this is not right and that is incorrect, but they will still watch it?

is this the road we're taking?

one Radio Molvi actually said: "15 years ago everyone made a big noise about women on air, now the same people are addicted to this radio! the same will happen with the Tv issue, they'll make a hoo-haa now and after a few years they'll be watching our programmes!"

every person in his own capacity should continue explaining his colleagues, friends, family, relatives, etc the 'hurmat' of this Islamic TV's. (that it is haraam).

imaams of the masjids should continue speaking out against it.

ustadhs should continue explaining to their students and learners the same.

otherwise???

#534: unsilent - why the silence all of a sudden?

i fully agree with "unsilent".

once you stop saying a wrong is a wrong, it gets acceptable.

leave out the "islamic TV', take just normal TV. how many people even speak out against it or warn of its harms, or mention it's haraam? so the younger generation dont even regard it as haraam. you'll be shocked that the learners in madrasah are shocked when they are told tv is haraam, since they are born into  a TV world, and never heard before, not in madrasah , not from their parents (obviuosly) and not in the juma bayaans... so it became acceptable... when they are told its haraam, they seem not to fathom it!

the same goes with all vices and sin.

although, it does not mean you have to "hammer" everyone and "bang" out everyone, all you do is to carry on explaining from the mimbar and in the classroom and in programmes and bayaans that this is haraam, otherwise it becomes acceptable after a while.. and those 1 or 2 who speak out against it are then regarded as extremists? is it not so?

so i fully agree with "unsilent"
