Cont..

The following strategy is used to respond to a

request:

Step 1: TeachIslambotfinds out if the user has

given any null input. If so, it takes the fact from

the database to respond.

Step 2: There are some built-in responses that

TeachIslambot can recognize readily. It finds

the presence of any such sentence after

fragmenting the users input and remembers the

Cont..

Step 3: If no built-in sentence frame work is found, then

TeachIslambotsearches for the specific keyword to define

the context. If no context is found, it deliberately motivates

the user to navigate to a site that can help the user to find

his topic of interest, or it deliberately motivates the user to

speak about a specific topic.

to assist the Muslim Ummah to improve

their level of understanding about Islam,

and convey a very good picture to non-

Muslims will enrich their knowledge about

their religion (Islam), and to non-Muslims it
