Living in Medina — one of the holiest cities in the world — gives a person a unique perspective on the reality of Islam versus the media’s portrayal. Laurence Brown, author of “The First and Final Commandment” and “MisGod’ed,” joins The Deen Show fresh from the blessed city to expose Islamophobia, discuss the common ground between Islam and Christianity, and share his experience of living among Muslims in the heartland of the faith. As someone who was present in Medina when an explosion occurred during Ramadan, he has firsthand knowledge of how these extremist acts affect the Muslim community most — and how far removed they are from what Islam actually teaches.
American Muslims Expose Islamophobia and the Lies About Islam
“If people actually went and lived with Muslims, they’d find out that these people are calm, peaceful, loving, hospitable, and generous. This has to come from somewhere — part of it is their nature, and part of it is their religion fine-tuning that nature.”
The constant media refrain linking Islam to violence has created a false image that bears no resemblance to the lived reality of 1.8 billion Muslims worldwide. Laurence Brown, whose expertise is in comparative religion, explains that the extremist acts committed by groups like Daesh during the holiest month in the holiest city demonstrate precisely how far these criminals are from Islam — not how representative they are of it. Muslims are the primary targets and the greatest victims of terrorism, a fact that is consistently buried beneath politically motivated narratives.
