A very serious issue that needs attention.
A day back, i received an email from a friend, it had the following paragraph attached to it and i quote:
"A News Paper in Denmark held a competition to draw a sketch of Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu Alaihiwasallam) they received 100s of sketches - and the news paper published 12 sketches in their publication for weeks in which they have shown Prophet wearing missiles and bombs and shown his sketches in bad positions. Muslims and Muslim organizations of Denmark protested against this but the Danish government defended the newspaper/press, naming it freedom of speech, and did not even care to hear the plea of the local Muslims leaders. The Egyclub - forwarder of this mail - suggests that we can boycott the Danish products like - Nido Milk Powder - Anchor Milk Powder and Lurpark Cheese and other products made in Denmark.... will be a mere reference to see our Beloved Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu Alaihiwasallam) on 'Kauthar' fountain on day of 'qiyamah." Firstly, as far as i've noticed, no one has taken time to point out this issue, being a senior representative of the forum, I hereby condemn this act of blasphemy by the Danish newspaper, the recent reprinting of the carricatures by the French, Italian, Spanish & German newspapers and all those involved in this act should be ashamed of themselves. Every human in this world respects some one, and making fun of the one whom billions respect most, is not freedom of speech, its utter callowness. Dawn- Pakistan, has cared enough to mention the steps taken by some significant muslim states in order to show their anger over the issue. Today's Dawn published a report on this issue and i quote: Quote:
A question arises here, what has Pakistan done so far in order to depict displeasure against this heinuous act? Anyways, so far, the several Danish companies have gotten a huge blow on their sales as Middle-Eastern consumers have quit using their products especially where by-products are locally available. I won't say much here, I'm looking for suggestions by you people, the patriotic muslims of Pakistan, to find ways of countering or atleast condemning this heinous act. I mean, come on, they've attacked Pakistan's dignity several times, through their statements, cartoons etc., but this time they've gone over the edge. There is a limit to freedom of speech when it concerns a whole nation of over a billion people! Anyways, we won't go ahead and play their idiotic game and make carricatures of respectable personalities, our religion teaches us to respect their Prophets as well. Looking for suggestions, do I have volunteers here? Regards, BUSHaRRaF |

I saw the news and the cartoons as well. The thing that really surprised me is the reaction of European media; some of them are even backing up those caricatures in the name of the freedom of press. That’s ridiculous.

from what i can comprehend, the West is deliberately doing such things to incite further hatred that has somewhat died out after the 9-11 and post 9-11 events. They are now infuriating the most ignorant muslims of the society as well. Remember the recent riots in France? all these events belong to the same chain, demoralise, defame and humiliate the muslims and Islam, all over the world. 9-11 was the beginning..... I just hope muslims wake up before its waaay too late to counter such attacks.
--- "Khuda kay waastay aye musalmaano hosh mein aao, Dilo mein apnay ghairat ko jagah do, josh mein aao...." May ALLAH forgive the wrongdoings/ignorance of Muslims, save us and our beloved religion from further humiliation and return the dignity of Islam and its followers. Aameen. Regards, BUSHaRRaF |

Assalam Alaikum,
I wonder if it is still not a clash of civilization, it seems to me that the ignorant Europeans who more or less care about their own religion would give respect to other religions. Due to their ignorance to respect any religion combined with their arrogant pride on their SO CALLED demcratic values and freedom, they should realize that ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I think the response should have been much harsher by all muslim countries until they get the formal apologies from the concerned parties on the international platform, and assure the muslims that any such actions will not take place in the future. I think these westerners are mixing the current conflicts with religion, and think that they can get away with it, but they will soon find out that they are about to open the pendora's box. I think this form of freedom is worst than TERRORISM that they have been blaming on us MUSLIMS. Thanks. |

Reactions from WORLD LEADERS
Assalam Alaikum,
HOSNI MUBARAK, Egyptian President Freedom of opinion, expression and of the press, which we guarantee and respect, cannot be used as an excuse to insult sanctities, beliefs and religions. HAMID KARZAI, Afghan President Any insult to the Holy Prophet, peace be upon him, is an insult to more than one billion Muslims and an act like this must never be allowed to be repeated. ANDERS FOGH RASMUSSEN, Danish Prime Minister We are talking about an issue with fundamental significance to how democracies work. One can safely say it is now an even bigger issue. AHMED QUREIA, Outgoing Palestinian Prime Minister We hope that the concerned governments are attentive to the sensitivity of this issue. We warn that emotions may flare in this very sensitive issue. Prince NAYEF, Saudi Interior Minister We hope that religious centres like the Vatican will clarify their opinion in this respect. PHILIPPE DOUSTE-BLAZY, French Foreign Minister The principle of freedom should be exercised in a spirit of tolerance, respect of beliefs, respect of religions, which is the very basis of secularism of our country. YURI THAMRIN, Indonesian Foreign Ministry spokesman Freedom of expression cannot justify indignity towards a religion. FRANCO FRATTINI, EU Justice Commissioner It should be crystal clear to all that violence, intimidation, and the calls for boycotts or for restraints on the freedom of the press are completely unacceptable. I can understand the feelings of indignation, frustration and sadness of the Muslim communities over the last few days. Such events do not facilitate dialogue between faiths and cultures. Paksitani Leaders have yet to weigh in the issue, I have not seen anything in this regard from our leaders yet, if someone has something do share it. Thanks. |

Salam to all,
This is really immoral on the part of Danish newspaper & those who r calling it freedom of thought....infact Christian hates muslims nt since 9/11 bt their hatered is deep rooted since "Suleebii Jungaiay" this hatered will remain in their hearts till the day of judgement......our religion doesnt allow us to insult any other religion r their messanger,we belive on other prophets as well...bt it is condemnable situtation to injure the emotions of Muslims..... that newspaper should be banned...just apology is nt enough. with regards, Muskan

AoA
yeah brother you are right, the protest is underway in many middle east countries and north African countries, but i dont know what happened to the ulema in Pakistan as unable to find any thing important from their side, perhaps they are too busy in their run to grab some political position may ALlah show us the right way nonetheless, the danish government has also refused to presurize clamouring it as freedom of press, it is indeed a matter of concern and there should b pressure from Muslim community so that no one dare to do such things in future

my affirmation is simple; 1. Just make it clearly to the occident to hand all the culprits involved in these incidents of desecration and blasphemy , to the muslim world 2. if they don't accede to our demand, then just do away with all the ties with them 3. But if we r not resolute enough to initiate all this then , to me , our condemning these incidents won't bring any change in their attitue 4. Once Maulana Fazl-ur-Rehman very rightly said, that, our nuclear bomb , instead of, saving us is being saved by us .......I don't know wats the use these armed-to-teeth nuclear arsenals r giving us,,,,atleast we can initiate joint ventures with other muslim countries to augment our collective punch ....I know this might be an utopian fantasy on my part , but to me theres no way out other than this Last edited by Abdullah; Friday, February 03, 2006 at 03:36 PM. |
