Islamic lectures, speeches, talks and sermons are also available on audio CD. ?Islam, World Peace and September 11th? by Jamal Badawi Purchase the full-length lecture at http or call 1-800-607-9810 Using a very fact-of-the-matter approach with the Iowa State University audience, Dr. Jamal Badawi presents the true Islamic viewpoints on the many pertinent issues challenging Muslims in the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks. He discusses the concept of peace in Islam, the misconceptions of jihad, and how to properly combat the negative frenzy that has been cast upon the Muslim community in light of the tragedy. Dr. Badawi emphasizes that not trying to attain a peaceful means of communication and resolution of conflicts goes against the very nature of Islam. He also elaborates on the ?cut-and-paste? approach to interpreting the Holy Qur?an, a tactic utilized especially by the media, whereby verses are taken completely out of their context and historical setting to incorrectly paint a violent picture of Islam. It is this ?cut-and-paste? approach, as the speaker explains, that contributes to the improper understanding of the word ?jihad? and the mythical concept of ?holy war?. Lastly, Badawi addresses the September 11th events by denouncing the horrific attacks and clearly stating that they are un-Islamic, despite the excuse that some extreme groups may use that ?
