“The media’s the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that’s power. Because they control the minds of the masses.” - Malcolm X (El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz)
Africa This Week - Black in Brazil
With the Olympics in Rio, Brazil now underway, we’ll be taking a look at the connections between Islam and Brazil and discussing what it means to be Black and Muslim in Brazil today. We have a documentary filmmaker Habeeb Akande looking at this question later in the program. The West African country of Benin has a host of Afro Brazilian architecture that is in danger of being lost, we have a special report on their historical significance. But first, around a thousand people marched through the streets of Burundi’s capital Saturday to protest against a United Nations Security Council decision to send a police contingent to the troubled country. Presented by Khalil Charles and Produced by Adama Munu. - See more at: http://www.islamchannel.com/programme-video/africa-this-week32/#sthash.uSrM9hh3.dpuf

Show by the Quran and Hadith both authors that sensuality and sexuality are compatible with Islam, and even describe them as essential sources of faith: During orgasm you are closer to God than the prayer."
