Boundary unseen

This is really disappointing to see that the view of the world with respect to the continual growth in the technology is still far away to match its pace.Recent detention of Bollywood Actor Shahrukh Khan at Newark Air Port(U.S) was in great news and it became a global news for over a week covering the pages of well renowned magazines & news papers.

Whole Bollywood is in rage after this issue. Again coming to the entertainer, his movie “MY NAME IS KHAN” is under production.’Khan’itself is a muslim title which terrifies the Western World to a great extent. So, the question arises why this humiliating act towards the society which is as old as what Christianity is. After 9/11 attack on World Trade Center,Muslim community was under constant fire.Six imams seen praying in a Minneapolis Airport were later removed from their flight after a passenger passed a note to a flight attendant saying that the men acted suspiciously on board.Again Keith Ellison,the first Muslim elected to congress was vilified for planning to take a ceremonial oath on a Quran.

'Islamophobia' a new term added to the dictionary after 9/11 mishap, has become a fashion. As every now and then, we listen issues related to Muslims and Islam on Radio,T.V and Print Media. Whenever we find an attack by a terrorist the first image that comes into our mind is that the person will be a Muslim.The answers which we get are vague and puzzled.

Everybody in the Muslim world has a story or know a story.Story is created now and then by the Media.The frequent incursions by the militants throw a terrifying effect on the human mind which features only a Muslim. We need to know the reason why such things are happening in this world and must try to rectify it from time to time.

Racial Discrimination is an abuse in the name of the humanity. 'Change' was President Obama’s campaign slogan. American Muslims were both pleased and surprised by his January 20th inaugural address saying, "America is the country of both Christians and Muslims."

We do need change not only in terms of physical and economical change but also mental change where we stand on one foot.The poem “We are the world…..we are the children…we are ones…to make a brighter day…..so lets start giving”says that we are united.
