Looking at the arguments by Naik supporters it is not difficult to understand why he has billion followers..This world has more FOOLS than the intellectuals. All the bad things attracts more people.. this is the general law. These are the same people dreaming of going to heaven to enjoy 72 virgins while creating hell in the real word. The whole world laughs at their logics...Hahaha.
I think Arnab by now saw his videos in full context ... He and the indian media is silent...
I dont know how many of them are misguided by this cheddi reporter and make enemy the TRUTH.
I feel pity to cheddi member who doesnt use their intellect and watch the videos in full context so they could be spared from ignorantly harming others without knowledge which will be judged infront of the CREATOR who created U me and all the exists including the enemies of TRUTH.

If Dr. Zakir Naik is on right path, nothing will happen to him, his noble work and his organisation, in sha Allah. May Allah keep him on right path and teach good lesson to the enemies of right things.
