Earlier this week, a trailer for a film that depicts the life of the Prophet Mohammed in a negative light was posted on YouTube in Arabic. For many Muslims, any depiction of the Prophet is considered blasphemous. The film is blamed for sparking numerous anti-US protests and attacks across the Muslim world. In some countries, the protests are ongoing.
Libya
An armed group about 60 to 70 strong attacked the US embassy in Benghazi on Sept. 11, killing the US Ambassador and three other Americans. The attack, which lasted four hours and burned the US embassy building, appeared to have been planned in advance and executed by well-armed militants.
An Islamist group called Ansar al Shariah was blamed for the attack, but according to The New York Times, Ansar al Shariah issued a statement denying responsibility for the attack. However, an anonymous banker who witnessed the events claimed that Ansar al Shariah executed the attack.
Egypt
On Sept. 11, hundreds of protesters gathered outside the US embassy in Cairo, chanting anti-US slogans. Many of the protesters were ultraconservative Salafists. Some were chanting “We are all Osama”. The protesters climbed the walls of the US embassy, took down the US flag, and replaced it with al Qaeda’s flag. Security forces did little to intervene. Mohamed al Zawahiri, brother of al Qaeda emir Ayman al Zawahiri, claimed he had organized the protest.
On Sept. 12, the protests turned violent. Protesters threw rocks and Molotov cocktails. Riot police responded with warning shots and tear gas. The health ministry reported that 224 people were injured.
Protests continued on Sept. 13 and Sept 14.
Islamist groups called for a “million-man march” in Cairo on Friday, Sept. 14.
Yemen
Hundreds of protesters stormed the US embassy in Sana’a on Sept. 12, breaking though the main gate, smashing windows, and setting cars alight. The US flag was torn down and and replaced with a black flag bearing the Muslim statement of faith, “There is no God but Allah.” The protesters chanted “death to America” and “death to Israel.”
Yemeni security forces who rushed to the scene fired in the air and used tear gas, but failed to prevent crowds from gaining access to the embassy compound. Reinforcements drove them out of the compound after about 45 minutes and sealed off the surrounding streets. At least five Yemenis were killed.
A Muslim cleric, Abdul Majid al- Zindani, urged followers to emulate the protests in Libya and Egypt. Zindani, a onetime mentor to Osama bin Laden, was named as a specially designated global terrorist by the US Treasury Department in 2004.
Yemen is home to al-Qaida’s most active branch, and the United States is the main foreign supporter of the Yemeni government’s counterterrorism campaign.
Iraq
Protests erupted in Iraq on Sept. 13 as well. In Baghdad, several hundred members of the Iranian-backed Shiite militia Asaib Ahl al-Haq,protested in the Shiite area of Sadr City, burning US flags and chanting, “Death to America.” Threatening anti-US attacks, their leader said “The offense caused to the messenger (Prophet Mohammad) will put all American interests in danger and we will not forgive them for that,”
In the southern city of Basra, hundreds of followers of anti-US Shi’ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr took to the streets, calling on the Iraqi government to close the US embassy. Both Sunni and Shi’ite clerics participated in the demonstration, which was organized by Sadr’s office. “We have to fire the U.S. ambassador because these things are carried out under U.S. supervision and are aimed at offending Islam and Muslims,” a protester said.
Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki denounced the film as “insulting” and “racist” but called on Muslims not to react with violence. “The natural response is to refrain from resorting to violence and demonstrate the principles of Islam and its civilized values,” he said in a statement.
Iran
On Sept. 13, approximately 500 Iranian students protested outside the Swiss embassy in Tehran. (The Swiss embassy oversees US interests in Iran.) Protesters shouted slogans including “Death to America,” “Muslims unite,” and “Mohammad is God’s prophe.t” They called on Muslim nations to “cut their relations with the United States and demonstrate their religious values against the colonial system.”
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei claimed that the main suspects behind the “crazy and hateful” making of the film were the American government and Zionism. “If American politicians are honest in their claims that they were not involved, they have to hold responsible those who committed this obscene crime … and their financial supporters,”
“The U.S. government’s systematic and continued silence on such repulsive acts is the fundamental reason that they keep happening,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said.
Kuwait
The protests spilled over into Kuwait on Sept. 13 also. About 500 demonstrators gathered near the US embassy, waving a black al Qaeda flag and chanting “Obama, we are all Osama.” The protesters gathered near the US embassy after police forces stopped them from reaching the mission. The crowd called for the expulsion of the US ambassador to the country. “The people want to expel the ambassador,” they chanted.
Pakistan
Also on Sept. 13, Pakistan’s far-right Islamist Jamaat-e-Islami political party asked its supporters to hold protests after Friday’s Muslim prayers to denounce what it called a “shameful movie sponsored by the USA against Islam.” Two other groups also announced plans to demonstrate in the capital of Islamabad on Friday. One group says it plans to march on the US embassy, which is in a walled-off diplomatic district.
Afghanistan
On Sept. 12, the Taliban called on Afghans to prepare for a fight against Americans and urged insurgents to “take revenge” on US soldiers. “The Islamic Emirate calls on religious heads around the country to completely inform Muslim followers of the inhumane acts of Americans and make them ready for a long-term fight,” the group said in a statement.
President Hamid Karzai condemned the film, while Afghan communications officials shut down access to YouTube to stop Afghans from seeing the video.
On Sept. 14, about 1,000 people joined a protest in the eastern city of Jalalabad, burning an effigy of US President Barack Obama
Bangladesh
On Sept. 13, approximately 1000 members of the Islamic group Khelafat Andolon demonstrated in the capital of Dhaka but were blocked from approaching the US embassy by security forces. The protesters chanted anti-US slogans, burned a US flag, and demanded an immediate apology from the United States. The group threatened larger protests. “We will stage bigger protests over the issue and may also besiege the US embassy,” said Moulana Hemayetuddin, a senior leader of the group.
Gaza Strip
On Sept. 12, Palestinians protested in front of the United Nations headquarters. About 100 members of the militant group Popular Resistance Committees chanted anti-American slogans, burned the US flag, and called for the death of the filmmaker behind the movie. “We call upon Arab and Islamic countries to expel American ambassadors until Obama administration apologizes to Muslims around the world,” said one protester. The leaders of Hamas called for more protests on Friday.
Tunisia
On Sept. 12 in the capital of Tunis, 200 protesters threw rocks at the police, burned the US flag, and chanted slogans such as “Obama, Obama, we are here for the triumph of Islam,” and “Mohammad is the master of creation.” Police fired teargas and rubber bullets into the air to disperse the crowd.
On Sept. 14, protesters entered the US Embassy compound and started fires, and reportedly set an American school on fire.
Lebanon
On Sept. 14, hundreds of protesters set fire to a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant in the city of Tripoli, chanted against the Pope’s visit to the country, shouted anti-American slogans, and wounded 12 members of security forces by throwing stones. Security forces shot and killed one man and wounded two others in a group of protesters who were trying to break into a government building.
Sudan
On Sept. 14, police in the capital of Khartoum fired tear gas to disperse 5,000 protesters who had surrounded the German and British embassies. Police stood by as a crowd forced its way into Germany’s mission. Demonstrators hoisted a black Islamic flag bearing the inscription in white letters: “There is no God but God and Mohammed is his prophet.” They smashed windows and furniture in the building and then started it on fire.
Algeria
The US Embassy cautioned Americans to avoid its building and other official government buildings after calls for protests went out on social media.
Morocco
Demonstrations were reported outside US diplomatic facilities in Morocco
on Sept. 12.
Update Friday, Sept. 14, 6 p.m. EST:
Nigeria
On Sept. 14, Nigerian troops fired into the air to disperse Muslims protesting in the city of Jos. Scores of Muslim demonstrators distributed photographs printed out from the trailer of the film, after Friday prayers. They then marched down the main Bauchi Road shouting “God is Greatest!” a Reuters witness said. The military deployed to block them, firing live rounds into the air and ordering them to disperse.
In the northern city of Sokoto, thousands of people marched peacefully, carrying placards reading “Down with America” and “We love our Prophet,” under a light security presence.
Indonesia
On Sept. 14, about 200 protesters chanted “Death to Jews!” and “Death to America!” in a largely peaceful protest outside the heavily guarded US Embassy in Jakarta.
Jordan
On Sept. 14, hundreds of protesters gathered outside the US Embassy in Amman, chanting for jihad and praising Osama bin Laden and the killers of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens in Libya.
Mauritania
On Sept. 14, a large demonstration against the Muhammad movie broke out at BMCI, a bank in Nouakchott, the US Embassy said. It urged all US citizens to avoid the areas around the bank and the Embassy.
Others
Additional protests were reported in Qatar, Kenya, Malaysia, Bahrain, and Jerusalem, Israel.
Update Saturday, Sept. 15, 3 p.m. EST:
Pakistan
On Sept. 14, demonstrations took place in several Pakistani cities. Some protesters called for the death of the filmmaker, and others demanded the expulsion of US diplomats. Police beefed up security around US missions.
In Lahore, Hafiz Saeed, head of the Jamaat-ud-Dawa, led a 500-strong rally against the film. Saeed urged the government to summon the US ambassador in protest against the film.
In Karachi, the Jamaat-e-Islami organized a rally of 700 party activists and supporters with banners and placards bearing anti-US and anti-Israel slogans.
In Islamabad, 400 protesters rallied in front of Lal Masjid after Friday prayers, following a call from Jamaat-e-Islami.
In Quetta, hundreds of Jamiat-e-Ahle Hadees workers protested outside the Quetta Press Club. They shouted anti-US slogans. Speakers condemned the anti-Islam video and demanded stern action against the filmmaker.
India
On Sept. 14 in Srinagar, hundreds of lawyers shouted anti-US slogans and went on strike. Zaffar Shah, former president of the Jammu and Kashmir High Court Bar Association, said “about 700 of us are not working today in protest against this blasphemous film.” He continued: “We want to discourage people from making such movies, and we urge the US government to ban the film and prosecute the filmmaker under some law that prevents people from inciting others.”
Also in Srinagar, Bashiruddin Ahmad, who is Indian-held Kashmir’s most senior Islamic cleric, the Grand Mufti of Jammu and Kashmir, told all US citizens to “immediately leave” the region, saying “US citizens visiting Kashmir should leave immediately as the sentiments of the Muslims have been hurt by these picture.” He added: “Everyone accepts the greatness of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and any attempt to malign his image will not be tolerated.”
Australia
On Sept. 15 in Sydney, several hundred protesters threw rocks and bottles during clashes with police. The demonstration began when about 200 people gathered outside the US consulate and marched through the city center; some carried placards reading “Behead all those who insult the Prophet.”
Several streets were blocked off by police as the protest grew. Police wearing anti-riot equipment, and some on horseback, used dogs and chemical sprays to control the protest. Police later said six officers had been injured and eight protesters arrested. Demonstrators then gathered in a central Sydney park, and a Muslim leader addressed the protesters, calling for calm.

“When Christians are subject to insults to their faith, and that certainly happens, we expect them not to resort to violence. When Hindus or Buddhists are subjected to insults to their faiths, and that also certainly happens, we expect them not to resort to violence,” said Clinton. “The same goes for all faiths, including Islam.”
Down with USA..they have no right to make a movie like this…
Who is this “we” clinton is talking about? what authority does he have to define how people have to react? How does he come to the conclusion that people of the world are subject to meet his expectation?
If you have fallen so low that an insult to your loved one in such a large scale doesn’t make the blood in your veins to flow faster, it still doesn’t mean that the same is true for everyone else on the face of this planet.
Why put oil in fire? Extremists and terrorists are the only one to win from this.
Is the western mindset so prideful about it’s “freedom of speech” that it fails to recognize when the line is crossed?
Thai Because ISLAM has honour attached to it. Our Religion is not a Banana Republic religion. Anyways, We dont know about others
While i don’t support the film, nor what has happened across the world. I do believe in and support the 1st amendmant.
The reaction from Muslims around the world shows us even more that the war(s) we are battling is against a group of people stuck in centuries way behind ours. There is no logic to be had, nor roundtables to be used as forums.
A couple questions to the &^*&%(% trying to justify the actions of these people “protesting” over this film:
1-Why attack us embassies because an individual living in the US made the film? I understand he is an egyptian living in the US.
2-Can’t God handle his own problems? Do you think he would be proud of the cowards that are killing innocent people that have no association with the film what so ever?
I think this might shine a new light on Islam for all the apologists out there. Is this acceptable behavior in Islam? Is this what the religion of peace (lol) really looks like?
I am a man of peace, now do exactly as I say or I will cut your head off!
Samaneh: do you believe that people should be killed because your feelings got hurt? The video was made as an attempt to voice an opinion and present some information that may or may not be true. People have a right to do that, just as you and I are allowed to post comments on this website.
Uhhh, rational thought, that speech was uttered by the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, not her husband….
Samaneh, we have freedom of speech in this country.
@Samaneh,
Let me use your logic because clearly the US Gov was behing this movie.
Down with Iran, Iraq, AF, PAK, and pretty much any muslim state, republic, or sultanate that produces beasteality or pedophile porn. It happens in those countries so clearly their government is behind it right?
Use some logic.
if this is all it takes to get ‘these people’ riled up then obviously the Non-Muslim Ummah should be producing more of this kind of material to assist in flushing out of ‘these’ provocateurs & related vermin. It also appears that the perpetrators & their collaborators have designated 9 11 as their “Guy Fawkes Day.” Its time ‘we’ too take that date more seriously & prepare accordingly.
I am unable to understand why the Islam world has such a Double Standard in regards to offensive things and people.
President Bashir is wanted for War Crimes against Humanity, yet the OIC takes no action to turn him in.
Sudan’s Bashir to miss OIC summit after EU objected
India would like to talk to Hafiz Muhammad Saeed and Dawood about some distasteful things that have happened in India over the years, yet Pakistan ignores the Indian requests in facilitating those conversations.
I can appreciate that the Islamic world wants the Western World to live up to high expectations and act against things & people that offend others, but the Islamic world should be doing their best to live up to the same high expectations.
One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself.
The Egypt Independent report’s Morsy’s sons hold US Citizenship and Morsy’s under some pressure to have them renounce it. I suspect these riots and murders much ado about Morsy and very little about movies. http://www.egyptindependent.com/news/union-morsy-s-sons-should-give-american-nationality
Mrbard207 Trade accepted if you can hand us Bush, Obama, Blair, Merkel, Netenyahu, Musharaf, Salman Rushdie, extremist hindus like Bal Thakary and and
This is about insulting religious figures of a different faith which is forbidden in Islam.
You can not compare an apple with a pear
@traded,
That trade will happen about the same time that Pakistan turns over Zawhiri, Haqqani and others.
Isn’t molestation, pedophelia, adultry, and murder also forbidden in Islam? Aren’t al-Qaida, Taliban, and other groups Muslims? Then why is it acceptable according to their faith (islam) to murder, rape, commit adultry etc?
I agree you can’t compare an apple with a pear, and you can’t also live in a glass house and throw stones.
I am very supprise that Islam is not mohammed’s religion. Mohammed is the prophet of Allah and not Allah himself. Muslims all over the world should leave the war for Allah to fight. He (Allah) is not asking for help from His worshippers, else. ………
The comments from other countries asserting that our politicians bear some responsibility for the speech of private individuals, shows why these exercises of free speech are necessary. I think many people in repressed countries don’t know about our glorious freedoms and trying to hide that freedom is a folly that actually makes them stronger. We should forcefully go after Blastphemy Laws by first starting a meaning worldwide dialogue on freedom of expression and religion.
First of all if you are implying that pakistani state is sheltering the faithful Mujahiddeen then you either do not know the ground realities or you are trying to mislead. (Unsurprisingly your view is quite common on this site.)
Secondly I bear witness that the people you named are pure from the accusations you made.
I’m afraid your suggested trade will never happen. Two faced people like hafiz saeed can be traded but not the faithful ones. Mullah Umar decided to sacrifice his rule than handing over a Muslim to the Non-Muslims. So America and it’s allies attacked Afghanistan to snatch what it couldn’t get and to exterminate the speakers of truth.
Though killing the big names has no effect. It took America and co. 10 years to get Osama and maybe it will take them another 10 years to get Zwahiri but we all know they are running out of the stamina.
Maybe one day when America will decide to stop blindly supporting the terrorist state of Israel, stop being its tool like Great Britain once was and not feel the need to force its view (like democracy) on people of other nation maybe then it will come to know peace.
It seems the showing of a simple film has brought a lot of freaks out of their holes. These comments are an example of that.
I honestly cannot understand why we have missions in these countries where we are considered infidels. We will never be accepted by these primitive animals as long as we don’t support their faith. Obama says we can’t withdraw from the world, and I agree, but why can’t we withdraw from these countries that will always want us dead and concentrate on those countries that have similar values as the USA. Contract to places where we are welcome and cut off funding to these insane Islamic countries. Let Russia and or China spend their treasure and sacrifice their lives for false influence. These countries will self immolate without foreign aid, and that’s just the way it should be.
Karadzic case underscores glacial pace of war-crimes trials
Come next month, former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic will have been on trial for war crimes for three years, and no conclusion to the trial appears in sight.
He and his former military commander, Ratko Mladic, are being tried by a special war-crimes tribunal established by the U.N. Security Council in 1993. Both men were indicted shortly thereafter.
…The pair introduced the term “ethnic cleansing” to the lexicon of atrocities, and thousands still remain missing and unaccounted for from that brutal little war. According to the Associated Press, the tribunal has dozens of former senior political and military leaders awaiting trial for atrocities committed during the period 1991 to 1995.
________________________________
The Western World (majority Christians) have had no problem going against Milosevic, Mladic and Karadzic for war crimes against Muslims.
Now back to Sudan.
Testimonies of rape in Sudan
I was sleeping when the attack on Disa [village] started. I was taken away by the attackers, they were all in uniforms. They took dozens of other girls and made us walk for three hours. During the day we were beaten and they were telling us: “You, the black women, we will exterminate you, you have no god.” At night we were raped several times. The Arabs guarded us with arms and we were not given food for three days.
Female refugee from Disa
Why can’t the Muslim world do something similar and pursue those Muslims who committed war crimes in Sudan?

it is interesting to see people in Pakistan upset about the actions of people in countries thousands of miles away fron their own country.
PREVENTION OF DISCRIMINATION AGAINST AND THE PROTECTION OF MINORITIES
The Sub-Commission’s 1985 reaction to Ordinance XX (1984)
6. Ordinance XX was incorporated into the 1985 Constitution. That year, the Sub-Commission adopted resolution 1985/21 in which the Sub-Commission:
1. Expresses its grave concern at the promulgation by Pakistan of Ordinance XX of 28 April 1984 which, prima facie, violates the right to liberty and security of the person, the right to freedom of thought, expression, conscience and religion, the right of religious minorities to profess and practise their own religion, and the right to an effective legal remedy;
2. Further expresses its grave concern that persons charged with and arrested for violations of Ordinance XX have been reportedly subjected to various punishments and confiscations of personal property, and that the affected groups as a whole have been subjected to discrimination in employment and education and to the defacement of their religious property;
3. Requests the Commission on Human Rights to call on the Government of Pakistan to repeal Ordinance XX and to restore the human rights and fundamental freedoms of all persons in its jurisdiction.
Pakistan continues with those types of controls over its people even though a UN Comission spoke out against it.
The United States has no Hudood Ordinance or Blasphemy law.
Why should Pakistanis and other Muslims be given the power to supersede the laws and freedoms in other countries such as the U.S., yet strongly resist when outsiders such as the UN try to change – supersede laws and increase the freedoms in countries such as Pakistan and Saudi Arabia?
One who make this movie didn’t know anything about Islam and Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him). He don’t have right to make film according to his own opinion.
History Channel documentary film about Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him). I recommend to watch this if you did n’t watch yet.

No one other Country in the world has the right to insult any other religion. Why allways the americans must take the opportunity to start with a cross fire. I am a christian born, but I say in this case Allah hu akbar !!!
A question to muslims.Do You criticize Christianity,Judaism,Hindus,Buddhist as false religions?If So you are hypocrites to not expect others to criticize your religion.
If you give it you have to be able to take it!
Clearly these people are extremely weak minded. I think it’s common knowledge to most that this ‘movie’ isn’t what really spurred on the senseless violence. It seems this weak minded cult just looks for any reason at all to go out and murder and wreak havoc. Pathetic excuses for humans really.
THE MOHAMMED MOVIE IS ACTUALLY FAKE! It was ilegally clipped from still yet to be shown Desert Warrior whoever re-created the clip want to start Armagaddon war. It was cheap dub from the Desert Warrior movie still in the making, stole 13:50 mins clip put voice over in it, translated to arabic, sent it to jihadist media, bla-bla-blah.
CS Monitor has article "There may be no anti-Islamic movie at all"
http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Backchannels/2012/0912/There-may-be-no-anti-Islamic-movie-at-all
What is an example of a hadith?
Muhammad and his followers were often subjected to mockery, abuse and torture in Mecca, the holy city in present-day Saudi Arabia, by those opposed to Islam and its message during its early years. It is said he remained patient and did not return insult for insult. This is further exemplified by one his teachings or hadith, in which he states; “Should I inform you about the best characteristics of the dwellers of this world and the hereafter? They are: keeping a relationship with one who cuts it off with you, giving to the one who deprives you, and pardoning the one who oppresses or wrongs you
Make as many films and write as many books as you want insulting Islam and Prophet Muhammad. You will only bring more attention to Islam and make it stronger
Off with their heads! It would be funny except these nutcases aren’t exactly the Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland.
Why do people in the west continue to appease these fanatics and make excuses. Nothing can justify their murderous tantrums. In Sydney police were attacked and injured in the middle of the CBD on a Saturday afternoon by religious thugs.
Muslims mullahs say, anyone who says Islam is not a peaceful religion, they will kill them. See the irony in that statement?
It would have been so funny if it also wasn’t so tragic.
Paul D,
A question to muslims.Do You criticize Christianity,Judaism,Hindus,Buddhist as false religions?If So you are hypocrites to not expect others to criticize your religion.
You should have included Ahmadiyyas (Ahmadis) on your list as well because they aren’t treated very in Pakistan.
Why Pakistan’s Ahmadi community is officially detested
When a Pakistani Muslim applies for a passport or national ID card, they are asked to sign an oath that no Muslim anywhere in the world is asked to sign.
The oath goes like this: “I consider Mirza Ghulam Ahmad an impostor prophet. And also consider his followers, whether belonging to the Lahori or Qadiani group, to be non-Muslims.”
Even though the Ahmadis consider themselves a branch of Islam, the rest of the Islamic community gets very upset if the Ahmadis use the term mosque and say the Ahmadis gather in a place of worship rather than a mosque.

The education system has some bias towards Islam and thus against the religious minorities. Though this report has a few years on it, I don’t recall any significant progress made to change things for the better.
The Subtle Subversion
______________________
If one follows a minority religion, Pakistan isn’t the place to be.
Minorities’ share of jobs equals sanitary work only?
For the religious minorities’ members lucky enough to land government jobs on the oft-bragged five per cent job quota, the only positions available at dozens of departments for them are of sanitation workers.
Take, for example, all 21 janitors who work with Masih. All of them are Christians or Hindus. Of the 16 who work at the Sindh minorities’ affairs department, most are Christians or Hindus too.
______________________
Pakistani Hindus say will not return from India visit
If there are unhappy Indian Muslims that want out of India, I don’t recall much in the way of news stories documenting their leaving for Pakistan.
still no answer.do muslims criticize other religions?
If so you should expect criticism or at least debate/questions about your religion.
What did the film makers expect , and what was their purpose
Couldn’t they foresee what will it be followed by? Who directed them to this creation ? These are the main questions , now for Muslim people, for true Muslims , who knows that a lot of exited other Muslims are not real brothers for them, who are not following the Islam in the right way , don’t be afraid to fight with all sins are all enemy powers , you are not enemy to any body , you are enemy to devil, an your duty is to make its power as fewer as you can
“Make as many films and write as many books as you want insulting Islam and Prophet Muhammad. You will only bring more attention to Islam and make it stronger”
But yet when Muslims commit barbaric acts of savagery around the world, they are damaging the reputation of their 1400 year old religion. So your point doesn’t really stand. The people who made the film wanted a certain reaction, they got it, and it plays right into their hands. That doesn’t make Islam stronger, it makes it look like a weak religion that belongs in the past because it cannot accept criticism of any kind.
The sad thing is, if the Muslim world had strong institutions and a developed society, they wouldn’t need to cling so hard to a 1400 year old fable.
Why are some people so against Islam, i dont understand. Muslims dont mock other religeons, I have many muslim friends and they are always speaking nicely of other prophets Moses and Jesus, why can’t we understand, and stop this Anti Islam Culture, we should not feel so insicure about our beliefs
aly,

Are you living in a country were Muslims are the majority religious group or in a country were Islam is a minority religion?
This man (so he calls himself) should come out in public and should be held responsible for all the damage he has cause around the word. Sir, if I may call you that. Face the world and pay the family’s that you have changed their lives. Please I am a man stand up for the respect of the family’s you have hurt. And for your family’s respect.
Remember you will met with GOD.
All we are living in year 2012. Why develop hatred? Respect each other and not to criticize the faith of others. When you point other with one figure the rest of four fingers pointing you, brother…
