IINA – 04

San Salvador, Safar 7/Apr 20 (IINA) – Muslims in Salvador have built an Islamic center for the purpose of spreading the Message of Islam to other parts of the country, and for preserving the Islamic identity of Muslims in the country. It does this by printing and publishing Islamic literature into the local vernaculars, but more importantly, by using the television and radio media for the purpose. They own 25 percent of these channels, with a rating of 86 percent of viewers, and therefore find it easy to spread the word of Islam. The Islamic Center here is also involved in defending the name and image of Islam against any unwarranted attacks that are waged against it, particularly the propaganda that Islam is a religion of extremism and violence. Most of the Muslim families in Salvador hail from Spain, and some of their forefathers must have been Muslims, and that is why they are quite comfortable with this religion.
