| description | Generally speaking, media is extensively used as the means to disseminate news and
information pertaining to business, social, political and religious concerns. A portion of the
time and space of media has now become an important device to generate economic and
social activities that include advertising, marketing, recreation and entertainment. The
Government regards them as an essential form of relaying news and information to its
citizens and at the same time utilizes them as a powerful public relations’ mechanism. The
effects of media are many and diverse, which can either be short or long term depending on
the news and information. The effects of media can be found on various fronts, ranging from
the political, economic and social, to even religious spheres. Some of the negative effects
arising from the media are cultural and social influences, crimes and violence, sexual
obscenities and pornography as well as liberalistic and extreme ideologies. This paper sheds
light on these issues and draws principles from Islam to overcome them. Islam as revealed to
humanity contains the necessary guidelines to nurture and mould the personality of
individuals and shape them into good servants. |
