Re: Pakistan's reaction on Rushdie knighthood (merged)
4) those people(who gave the honor) might be looking at some other work by the same author.
I mean is there a slight possibility of that being so?
To me what he did was wrong. Period. But if you look beyond that he might have other things to say. As already seen most of the people don't even know what the hoha is all about, how do you expect them to know about liturature if there was any in the other books. 99% are just jumping up and down for nothing, without even reading the book.
My point is that on which bases they included this particular book in his honoured work?
Hareem the portions which you have given where is the insult to the prophet in that. What actually he said to be a gusthakh e risalat. Copying and pasting is very easy to do, same as following rather than leading. So people, think about it and atleast read what was said against the prophet instead of just jumping on the wagon because mullah so and so said it.
. I still don't know what he exactly said about the Prophet(SAW), but I know he doesn't deserve any death sentence according to the knowledgeable Islamic scholars.
I quoted these lines to show people(muslims and non-muslims) that he did abuse them(British) who have given him the title, And I'm sure those Britishs are as ignorant as those mullahs who are giving death fatwas against him.
Salman Rushdie has not only offended muslims but he also offended black and white human-beings.
