Their new ad ideas recommend that it might also influence Islam!

This ad maintains good hype and can also be observed as a unique ad. We cannot deny that but, there is a minor part that has enraged the Muslims, globally. They have used a completely veiled woman who is stake boarding, who later on converts on stake boarding by holding the LGBTQ+ ie. Homosexuality flag.

Due to which Muslims got infuriated. It is not only offensive but also brings a massive question mark concerning the morals and the ethics of this firm, which states they create shoes for everyone without going into discrimination or racism.

Again, a similar question appears that isn’t displaying a religion, mainly Islam, with emphasis on backward mindset and converting towards LGBTQ+ similarly questionable? Going against Islam or having the freedom of speech?

This isn’t because of the fact that they have used a veiled Muslim who is lady skateboarding which is being considered unethical. As it is stating the image of our religion as the oldest one. The idea that it needs reformation concerning Liberalism is totally questionable.

In addition to it, their ad also displays the idea of tad bit hypocritical by showing the concept of “freedom of speech”, yet diverting the young Muslims to rethink and alter their beliefs.

At the moment this brand didn’t take any required action on their unethical advertisement campaign. This is not the first time it happened, H&M also printed the Islamic name on their socks.
