Islamophobia is a common problem in the contemporary world, particularly in Western society. It greatly affects the lives of Muslims. It is defined as the unjustified fear, hostility, and discrimination against Islam and Muslims. This fear is often based on misunderstandings and stereotypes caused by misinformation and biases. Negative media portrayals, especially linking Islam with violence, contribute to this negative perception. This leads some people to associate Islam with acts of terror or extreme interpretations of Islamic law. And now let me introduce our next part of the discussion, Islamophobia, which is very common in the contemporary world and Western society specifically and of course it significantly impacts the lives of Muslims. So according to Abdur Rashid in the article European Muslims, Islamophobia is quote the unjustified fear, hostility and discrimination against Islam and Muslims end quote. So this fear often comes from misunderstandings, stereotypes caused by misinformation and biases. In the worst world, perceptions of Islam are often shaped by events such as terrorist attacks, media portrayals, linking Islam with violence, rigidity. As noted in Islamic Worldview and Global Values, Robert Dick and Brenda Robinson again, this negative image in the media leads to some people to associate Islam with acts of terror or extreme interpretations of Islamic law.
