Dar Al Hikmah (House of Wisdom) was an amazing cultural iconic place during the Golden Age of Islam. Located in Baghdad, Iraq and established 800 AD this vast institution was a common playground for scholars. A huge focus was the translation of books from every language and constant teaching of one another to further enhance many aspects of society. It was said that the Imam of the time would give a scholar the weight of a book translated in gold once completed, hence “Knowledge is gold.”
This graphic is to help bring light to how our media tries to constantly cover what truly goes on in the world. I just feel that today we go to war for the quickest and smallest of confrontation. And our Media exploits this and makes “Heroes and Villains” out of War situations. The roses are camo to beautify war, the camo is made to blur the truth which is the Peace Dove.
