issues for islam today using one media article.
Choose a daily full-scale newspaper (e.g. New York Times) or weekly national news magazine (e.g. Time, Newsweek) with a publication date of some time in the last six months. Find an article (ONE ARTICLE ONLY) that has to do with Islamic political or religious issues today. The article should be at least 500 words long. Follow the instructions and answer the questions listed below in your paper:
In the first paragraph, as part of the introduction, you should mention the article title and which newspaper or magazine it came from plus the date.
In your paper body, begin with summarizing the events of the article briefly by quoting pertinent passages.
Next, tell how the current issue relates to what you have read historically from chapters 1, 2, 3, 7, 8 & 9 in the textbook. Use the book and quote pertinent passages from the chapters directly also.
Are there any direct parallels or historical events described in the text that contributed to the issue today?
Write the paper in a comparative mode to explain those parallels and historical background (go back and forth between the article and the text).
Finish by giving your opinion of the issue today. Are there any solutions that you see?

Format must be double spaced, Times New Roman, 12 pt size.
Papers should EXACTLY follow the format example given in the syllabus.
Make sure that you answer ALL the questions posed for each assignment and fulfill all the requirements listed.
All quotes must be referenced, either in-line or by endnote/footnote, including anything you find on the internet from which you have drawn ideas. NOTE: Make sure you are giving exact references when you quote, so that you will not be plagiarizing. If you are found to plagiarize, you will automatically receive a failing mark and be reported to the university for disciplinary actions, so just put quote marks & your reference for ANYTHING you copy outright, no matter how minimally!
You should also include an additional page (which does not count as one of the three) at the end of each paper giving your sources and citations for all works used in your writing (if you use footnote or endnote numbering, you will need a section for those references first before this additional general bibliography section at the very end).
