Its the image of Muslims that needs revamping.. or more importantly.. not the image.. their understanding of Islam itself.
islam can never be separated from muslims. no religion can be separated that way. the religion is infact defined by the actions of the followers. so when we say islam needs a revamp in its image we imply that muslims need a revamp in their image.
islam is exactly what the muslims do and believe in. while you may say that the holy quran defines islam, you wont be entirely correct. the taliban follow islam as do the sufis. each interprets the words of the quran in its own way and follows them. it is these actions which are seen by the world and opinions formed.
the world doesnt care what is written in the holy book. it cares what the followers and believers of the holy book do.
