1. Hasty Generalization - An inference drawn from insufficient evidence.

2. Either/Or - Unfair oversimplification of an issue by providing only two options as a possible solution.

3. Slippery Slope - Exaggeration of the likely consequences of an action, designed to show that a misstep today could result in a disaster in the future.

4. Bandwagon - Arguments urging you to follow the same path that everyone else is taking.

5. Ad Hominem - When you attack a person's character instead of the quality of their ideas

6. Straw Man - Misrepresenting or twisting someone's argument so it's easier to attack and knock down

7. False cause - In general, the false cause fallacy occurs when the "link between premises and conclusion depends on some imagined causal connection that probably does not exist"

8. Red Herring - A red herring is something that misleads or distracts from a relevant or important question.

Read the excerpt from part 2 of Zeitoun.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

to emphasize how his Muslim faith drives his actions

Explanation:

When the author presents Zeitoun's thoughts, he intends to show how religiosity was influential in his life. This is because Zeiton believes that he only succeeded in his deeds because God was in control and it was God who had planned for him to get involved in the tasks and events that he got involved, because God was with him. This means that for Zeitun, the Muslim faith he carried was the driving force for his actions, achievements and victories.
