Advertising is a major new field of personal "development" that our rabble-rousers and bureaucrats have discovered over the last decade. Surely, if one ministry can put up ads telling you to call home, and another can advertise for less sugar in your drinks (while closing one eye to the sale of heavily refined, heavily sweetened and falsely labelled foods), it is OK to remind the Faithful (to hell with Kafir) of their duties? Never mind that billions in Zakat have disapeared into an alternate universe and the ads are powered by Haram money.
