The Muslim Times has the best collection about the holy Prophet Muhammad, may peace be on him, and to refute Islamophobia

Dutch anti-Islam politician Geert Wilders is to hold a Prophet Muhammad cartoon competition at his party’s parliamentary offices.

The Party for Freedom (PVV), which has previously called for the Quran to be banned, said the contest had been approved by the country’s counter-terrorism agency.

Drawings will be judged by American cartoonist Bosch Fawstin, winner of a similar competition in Texas three years ago that was targeted by two Muslim gunmen.

  1. Freedom of expression also has boundaries. Once said by Pope also if you degrade some ones mother he or she likely to react. In Islam all prophets are regarded with high esteem. Any derogatory remarks about prophets are taken seriously by normal Muslims and they react. Since Populist politicians know this aspect as such keep on playing with the sentiments of normal Muslims. However since current era is of PEN as such best way is to come with arguments and reasoning against such acts. In this regard Ahmadiyya Muslim Community has the best policy and has replied about such acts in a published book available at http://www.alislams.org. I shall request all the members of Muslim Emma just to record their protest in a peaceful way and try to write and convince the masses of world that such act does not bring any thing good for humanity. All Muslims should turn to God Almighty Who by Himself will take care of such populist people.

  2. In the name of freedom of expression they are creating disorder in society,All muslims must turn to their Creator for help so He take care of these peoples to change their hearts for goodness & compassion – amin

  3. How did Prophet Muhammad react when Jahilliah mocked him?

    God commanded him how to react as follow:
    .Q.25:63. And the servants of (Allah) Most Gracious are those who walk on the earth in humility, and when the ignorant address them, they say “Peace!”

    Prophet Muhammad was a excellent example how to behave when some one mock, insult him or his religion.

    If you are a real Muslim you have to follow Prophet Muhammad as yiur guidance how to live pracefully, lovely. and properly.

    All love ❤️

  4. Whatever others believe, and I may not share that belief, I do not not consider it is right to insult them. It is a step too far. We know that people like Geert Wilders have agendas, and Freedom of Expression should have limitations.

    • Renate— If you claim a good Ahmadiyyah and follow prophet guidance you should follow what he said

      God commanded him how to react as follow:
      .Q.25:63. And the servants of (Allah) Most Gracious are those who walk on the earth in humility, and when the ignorant address them, they say “Peace!”

      Why do you reject it? …
      You follow some you reject others?
