Re: Picture of Hazoor PBUH on wikipedia

Yes, its wrong for you to make a picture today. For that, you have to square with God. If you die, and that picture is not destroyed, and it has some ahmiat or significance in history, then keeping it aside and saving the picture for academic reference is fine. This doesn't mean we need to be posting the picture up all over town. Just means - save it in a record somewhere. File it away, and let it be referenced. Let the evidence stand that aqeel123 did something ghastly terrible, so that when we remember aqeel123, our memories will not be fond of him. :)

And if anyone pulls a "Oh jee, Aqeel123 tho bohat bhara aalim tha - woh sahaba ke tarhan barha knowledgeable tha - bhara acha musalmaan tha..." - BAM! Pull out the sucker and show that aqeel123 was nothing more than a confused kid who directly flouted the orders of his God and deified the Prophet.

Re: Picture of Hazoor PBUH on wikipedia

The whole "don't make images of the prophet" argument is baffling. A simple historical image of Muhammad is not a deification and is certaintly not by the non-Muslims who are posting historical references. If it's not your cup of tea to see certain people depicted, then don't read it. Don't go there. But don't expect the world to follow your atypical cultural rule of not having drawings of certain historical figures.

So allow me to clarity... a good Muslim must follow everything this man did, including the number of times one must pray daily (even if it's different than what God prescribed), how we should greet people, how to brush our teeth, how to treat others, how to raise our children, how to make a living, how to make love, how to clean ourselves and in what order to do it, and pretty much how to live our lives - but DO NOT make a picture of him as that would be idolizing him.

Well that's my point - to KEEP and cite a reference to a picture is not deifying the image inside it.

Quite honestly, I don't have any problems with pictures in general or paintings, like some muslims. But I do appreciate that we are not a group that sells miniature statues of Mohammed as souvenirs at every other corner...

Re: Picture of Hazoor PBUH on wikipedia

I really liked it better when you did not agree with me. Keep in mind that a record and citation of an image can be kept for simple historical record keeping purposes as well. I shudder to imagine that if we kept tabs on people for every little thing they do for the sole purpose of using it against them, what kind of society we would become. Oh oops, already are.

Re: Picture of Hazoor PBUH on wikipedia

Great! Loved the argument.

History my behind!

Just because it is considered history by some should not justify its preservation since it might just be a FALSE HISTORY. And in this case it is false.

History of lie is still a lie. History based on lie is wrong.

BTW......those who are hell bent on anti-islamism or against muslims will not change regardless of petitions signed by muslims.

***Please send it to as many people as you know thru various email groups. This would be a great service on your part..

Ask them to react factually and peacefully, proving them wrong and also please initiate a signature drive to not to show this movie as it will hurt all muslims as majority of them have nothing to do with the extremism that the West thinks Islam is all about.

God bless you.

**Dutch MP says anti-Islamic film set for broadcast in March
Feb 9, 2008

THE HAGUE (AFP) — Dutch far-right deputy Geert Wilders said in an interview published Saturday that his controversial anti-Islam film will be called "Fitna" , arabic for ordeal, and will be aired in March.

The leader of the Freedom party (PVV), which has nine of 150 seats in parliament, said in November that he planned to make a short film showing that Islam's holy book, the Koran, is "a fascist book" that "incites people to murder".

According to the interview with Dutch GPD news agency, Wilders' 15-minute film is almost done, and he hopes it will be shown on Dutch television in March. He had initially said it would air at the end of January.

Wilders said he has called the film Fitna, an arabic word that in Islam is used to describe all things that can test the faith and is sometimes synonymous to evil.

"I use the term in an inverse sense because for me Islam ... is fitna," he said.

Wilders also gave some more details about what would be shown in the film, which for months has been causing concern in the Netherlands.

It would lead viewers through the Koran, Islam's holy book, he said, and show texts illustrated by documentary video images to show the Koran is not a symbolic text "but that Islam can take away our freedom unless we act against it".

In the end the film returns to the situation in the Netherlands and finishes with a picture of the prophet Mohammed, he explained. Muslims consider images of their religion's founder to be blasphemous.

"Something will happen to that picture but I won't say what," Wilders said.

There has been media speculation in the Netherlands that Wilders will tear up or burn the Koran in his film.

The Hague fears a repeat of the 2005 riots when thousands took to the streets in Muslim countries to protest cartoons of the prophet
Mohammed that appeared in Danish newspapers.

Wilders has been under heavy police protection since the 2004 murder of Dutch director and columnist Theo van Gogh. Van Gogh was killed by a radical Muslim after he directed a film criticising women's position in Islam.***
