Media can convert a hero into villain: Read Dr Zakir Naik's full statement

zakirmediaExpressing shock over the hate campaign, false allegations and media trial against him in the wake of recent terrorist attack in Dhaka, Dr Zakir Naik, the most sought after Islamic orator, has issued a written statement to the press reiterating that he never supported terrorism or violence in any form whatsoever.

Dr Naik had earlier planned for a press conference on Skype from Saudi Arabia. However, after a few major India TV channels tried to twist his recent statements, the 51-year-old orator, who founded the Islamic Research Foundation in 1991, changed his mind and released the written statement.

Read Dr Zakir Abdul Karim Naik's full statement below:

“According to me, the media is the most important weapon in the world. It can convert a hero into villain or even a villain into a hero.

I'm shocked at the media trial on me regarding the recent terrorist attack that took place in Dhaka Bangladesh on 1st July 2016. Most of the clips shown on the television of myself are either out of context, half statements or doctored. So are my statements in the print media.

I would have loved to give interviews whether for television channels or for the print media, but I fear that most of them will not publish it unedited or without twisting it. I came to this conclusion after I had given a few interviews, most of which were unfortunately mutilated and misutilised to serve the vested agenda of the channel or the newspaper.

If time permits, God willing, in the next few days I will give replies to some of the major allegations on video and give it to the media as well as put it up on social media as well as other public platforms so that the original answers are also available if the media misutilises it.

So far not a single official Indian government agency has contacted me for any clarification regarding this issue. It would be my pleasure to cooperate with any official Indian government investigation agency for any information they might require from me.

In conclusion, I repeat what I have always maintained – I DO NOT SUPPORT TERRORISM OR VIOLENCE in any form whatsoever. I have never supported any terrorist organisations and have mentioned this over and over again in thousands of my public talks worldwide. I STRONGLY CONDEMN anyone taking my statements out of context and using it for VIOLENCE OF ANY FORM.”

Yours Sincerely,

Dr Zakir Naik

Modi, Vajpeyee & Advani inspired several karsevaks to go for suicide mission to demolish Babri Masjid why not prosecute them?

Smrithi irani inspired Rohit vemula to do suicide why is she roaming free?

Thakre inspired several Shiv sena to kill Muslims in Bombay why they are not banned yet?

The attack on zakir bhai were preplanned by idol worshipper and darghah guys. There is no difference between this group.

When Media publishing the false story on Zakir Bhai, These assholes were enjoying most. Because of Zakir Bhai people were moving from darghah committee to right path.

Dargha Worshippers more dangerous than chaddi guys. Zakir Bhai indirectly forcing them to close their dargha shop.

Indian media belongs to the follower of fake god. Nothing wrong with the publishing false story, because they are born to spread false and poisonous in the peoples mind.

Zakir Naik has become more famous than before. Most of Non-muslims watched his video and very soon they will accept Islam, insha allah.

Sometime negative mind helps to spread Islam.Masha Allah

Dear Viren,
Mr.Gooswami asking every ones passport in is interviews who counter his questions. Goverment took passport from Mr. Mallya what happened? Any Benefit? They could not touch him. Also he is enjoying in UK. Why gooswami is not activating hastag for this? Why this Gooswami didn't ask govt to take passport from Mr.ved prakash whom all the media shown enjoying with Hafiz saeed? Why our PM attendeded function of the Pakistam PM suddenly when they are sponsoring the terrorism in India? Why Gooswami didn't ask explanation? Why there is no Hastaq#? Why he didn't ask passport of Maharastra minster Khadse who is having link with Dawood? Can you answer? This shows how the media is working? This exposes Gooswami.

All sincere & honest people will stand with Dr Zakir Naik irrespective of any religion they belong to. People must condemn and take stringest action against all Indian medias for maligning innocent people's name and fame to meet their agendas. Media is one of the main reason for increase of terrorist attacks. True muslim will never ever suport any form of terrorism as it is completely against Islam. Any terrorist who is involved in any kind of terror activities should be given capital punishment to have peace in the society.

Whatever Power, Wealth, Strength, manpower the enemies USE .... it is nothing in the sight of the CREATOR who created all that exists... (Insha ALLAH - God willing) ALLAH will give ZAKIR, a Victory over this DECEPTION of Indian MEDIA... (Cut past, display information)
Zakir naik is preaching the CREATOR's message to the masses who have fallen into darkness by worshiping idols and other man made objects... He asks the people to think and ponder on what he says...
The public should use their intellect honestly to PONDER on it... Life is not just a play... The CREATOR wants us to recognize his CREATION and ZAKIR naik is enlightening it to the masses with his research and proofs... which is mentioned in the QURAN... A guidance to MANKIND not just MUSLIMS...
THINK, PONDER, RESEARCH before U JUDGE.

Action against Dr. Zakir Naik is nothing else but, a conspiracy by RSS. Because of his popularity, the ability to convince people about misconceptions etc., People change their faith for better. Some openly and some in their minds.
Only this is pricking those who are so called protectors of religion.
They just want to nail him on the pretext of terrorism, conversion or black money laundering etc., Anything.

Abu Dhabi, Feb 17: NMC Health Plc, a hospital operator targeted by short-seller Muddy Waters, said founder Bavaguthu Raghuram Shetty resigned amid investor concern he faced a margin call and misrepresented his stake.

The board asked for Co-Chairman Shetty’s resignation and it takes effect immediately, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. NMC has lost four board members since Friday, including Vice Chairman Khaleefa Butti, whose holdings are also being probed. The stock, the worst performer on the FTSE-100 Index this year, fell as much as 9.2 percent Monday morning and then rebounded.

“The resignation of senior board members should be viewed positively,” said Abdulla Nahlawi, an analyst at Rasmala Investment Bank in Dubai. “The credibility of the current board has been jeopardized with the unfolding of the recent events.”

NMC shares lost almost half their value the first week of February on speculation the company’s main investors faced a margin call, in which banks seize shares pledged as collateral. NMC said Friday that First Abu Dhabi Bank and Al Salam Bank Bahrain obtained 20 million shares in the company from BRS International Holding, an investment vehicle of NMC’s top shareholders. The banks sold more than 8 million of those shares as “enforcement of security,” NMC said.

NMC operates the largest medical network in the United Arab Emirates and in 2012 became the first Abu Dhabi company to list in London. The shares started teetering in mid-December when Muddy Waters alleged that NMC manipulated its balance sheet and inflated the prices of companies it acquired.

Shetty, 77, was born in India and founded NMC in the 1970s after moving to Abu Dhabi. His spokesman said a legal review of the situation is ongoing and declined further comment.

Chief Investment Officer Hani Buttikhi and board member Abdulrahman Basaddiq also stepped down because they were appointees of Shetty and Butti, NMC said, adding that they had no knowledge of the share transfers.

Questions remain over the role of Shetty’s family at the company. His wife and son-in-law both hold roles in senior management.

Almost 10 per cent of NMC’s freely traded shares are shorted, according to Markit Securities data. In mid-December about a third of them were.

Last week GKSD Investment, an investment company backed by hospital investors, said it’s studying a possible offer for NMC. Under U.K. takeover rules, it has until March 9 to make a bid.

NMC has said Muddy Waters’s claims are false and the company hired former FBI Director Louis Freeh to conduct an independent review. The review is due to be completed before the company issues its financial results in March, the person said.

NMC said Mark Tompkins will continue as the company’s sole chairman.
