Keep to forgiveness (O Muhammad), and enjoin kindness, and turn away from the ignorant.
- The Qur'an, Chapter 7, Verse 199
What would the Prophet have done given the presence of those cartoons? Most probably smiled and turned away. Why are Muslims getting so worked-up about the works of ignorant cartoonists from the boondocks of Denmark? Is Islam so weak that we need to kill each other demonstrating our anger at an insult at the Prophet? Is the legacy of the Prophet so weak that we have to condem every Tom Dick and Lars when they insult him? Is Allah so weak that Muslims have to defend any insult to his beloved Prophet?
Please stop the madness and turn away from the ignorant. It is beneath us to even give them any attention. Instead look for the signs of Allah in the Universe.
