I know you probably meant this as a joke, and I can't say anything to the child since she is just being used as a puppet here, but this is in uber bad taste. Her parents need to be whacked on the side of the head for this display of holier-than-thou-by-proxy behaviour.
We are all Pakistanis, and our national language is Urdu. We should all know it well, yet many of us can't pronounce the most basic words properly. Should we start making videos about that too and rubbing people's nose in the mud for calling themselves Pakistani and yet not speaking the national language well? How many politicians, mullahs, leaders and scholars could be ridiculed with this?
Why should the ability to recite suras by heart be so different... first of all, it could very well be that the guy stumbled - the video puts his mistake in a loop to make it seem doubly bad. Second of all, Arabic is not his native tongue. If he had trouble reciting a sura - simple though it was - I don't see the need for facebook posts and youtube videos about this.
This all goes in the direction of, "Look at me. I have dressed up my 5 year old daughter in a hijab and she can recite the Qul, while you can't. You are trash and I am so superior". This is not Islamic behaviour, from what I understand of Islam, and nor is it - as I said - in good taste. This is the sort of thing low-life cheapsters do.
p.s> I can't stand Rehman Malik and this has nothing to do with him. It has more to do with this insufferable self-righteousness some of us seem to have embraced as if it were a good thing.
It is not about pronunciation and he was not reciting sura Al-Ikhlas by heart if u see carefully it is very clear that he was paper reading it and yet cudt do so and it is about the image of the office he is holding in a collective entity not in individual entity.As for rubbing something like this in someone face well Quran says jis ne Quran parh kar bhola diya woh buhat bara gunahgaar haa(and that doesnt meany learing it by heart necessarily).Everyone who can recite Quran properly should be proud of it without any doubt because as muslim it can guide us throught every walk of life but oh yh we believe in constitution more now?really if only we can act on that too but we literally dont believe in anything any more atleast all of these so called politicians dont and then we cry these people dont have any morality and honesty.Why? because things like those they stem from some belief and are no more just built in(atleast not in us).We should either erase the word islamic from the islamic republic of pakistan or act like we do actually live in an islamic republic because we are niether islamic nor a republic.Lets get the confusion over so the poor man can get some relief rather than indulging in trivial debates.
