acts. Hate discussing faith but I am going to do it, as far as events go, early muslims had to endure heinous prosecution in the peninsula(middle east) and yet our prophet and his follower persisted and eventually the message reached through to the entire world. If you feel these messages hurt islam, either your personal faith is weak or you feel that islam is weak(which its not). So I will on behalf of muslim community condemn these heinous actions and hopefully the law of land apply with the particular prosecution, may lord bless his soul and hopefully he recovers in no time.
No anti Islamic activity can be allowed to propagate itself unchecked in Muslim majority Bangladesh.
The Prophet (PBUH) did not prosecute the kafir, illiterate, bedouin Arabs that badmouthed him because of many reasons:
1. The Prophet (PBUH) was not a self-obsessed, egocentric person bent on furthering his personal agenda. Rather, the greatest person ever, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), was like a ray of light to the darkness of the period of Jahiliya, in which the Arabs of that time lived (and many would argue, many Arabs still live in those periods).
2. Quite naturally, he won over people by his magnanimity, honesty, amiability, the true messages revealed by Allah (SWT), and such.
3. None of these conditions apply to the Muslims of present day because there is not a single "Prophet" amongst today's Muslims, and there will never be another Prophet sent to humanity, nor do any of those restrictions apply to the people of the world today because more than 14 centuries have elapsed since the arrival of the messages revealed to humanity through the seal of Prophets, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
The Prophet (PBUH) is ordered to be loved by each and every Muslim more than his/her parents. If people are going to take actions for insults against their parents (they do so, at least in BD), then people are going to be
much more animated (and rightly so), at even the slightest violation of Islamic sanctities, including any insult to the Great Prophet (PBUH).
