islam is the most misunderstood way of life in the world. very often the Prophet:saw2: is criticized as being violent or mean, since we muslims know that his character was most upright, you should look for the great peaceful quotes made by the Prophet:saw2: and tell the story of his mercy that he had, even for many enemies.

Assalamu Alaikum :D

well, I agree with brother nyerekareem, it would be very nice to write about the Prophet SAW,:)
also since Islam and terrorism is populer, maybe you should write something about that inshaAllah. But the mercy of Allah's messenger SAW would be the best choice, I love those kind of speeches, :)
good luck,
may Allah make everything easy for you, ameen

to Allah we belong
i think best thing will be - Monotheism in Islam-

i.e. the Oneness of God. it is basic, common and interesting as well. :)

Assalamualaikum,

:bismillah1:

Persuasive would also need a stong argument. As for some of the topics mentioned,there is not much argument evident in the topic so developing one in the essay would be a bit difficult. Just my opinion, no offence intended.

I would suggest:

Referring to some recent examples, are Muslims being portrayed and represented accurately in the media?

In this argument, I think you can take into account many many points. I will list some out for you. Up to you, no compulsion :)

-Common misconception that Islam is a constructed culture to parallel and compete against the rapid modernisation of the West.
-The above then calls for a definition of Islam.
-The followers of Islam - Muslims, define them.
-The portrayal of Arabs and people of Middle Eastern origins through the use of examples, whether it was positive, negative or neutral.
-Definition of Arab, and Middle eastern region.
-The use and interpretation of the word terrorist in media reports.
-Arab=Muslim/Muslim=Arab misconception
-Concept of naming someone based on geographical locations leads to geographic divisions such as boundary notions of the East and West, suggesting various degrees of inferiority and strength.
-Notions of otherness as a result of the above.
-Why these misconceptions? Ignorance and lack of education of the religion of a globally based population.
-With the use of recent examples in mind of course, you can build this argument around those examples.

Again, just my opinion. Fee Amanillah.

Assalamualaikum.
