Blasphemy
I had the misfortune of watching a discussion between Sherry Rehman and Moulana Bakri aired by ARY Digital. During the course of the discussion when Moulana Bakri gave reference of The Quran, the Sunnah and The Holy Prophet M/s Sherry Rehman very brazenly said ““Mohammad was living in a different time”. . By referring to The Holy Prophet (M.P.U.H.) in such brazen language Sherry Rehman exposed her scant respect for our Holy Prophet, Quran and the Sunnah. She is obviously playing for the Western Gallery and wants to be recognized as a ‘liberal’. Paradoxically even the CNN reporters and Newscasters refer to him as ‘Prophet Mohammad’. But a Pakistani woman having a Muslim name speaks of the Holy Prophet (M.P.U.H.) with such disrespect. What amazes me is that none of our religious moulanas have taken notice of her utterings, which imply:-
That the Quranic injunctions and the Sunnah are redundant. (A Bangladeshi woman had uttered similar thoughts and was charged for blasphemy. She cannot enter Bangladesh).
Using such brazen language against the Holy Prophet (M.P.U.H.), she has committed blasphemy.
Sherry Rehman should not only be disqualified from the Parliament but should be tried for blasphemy. Our so-called religious parties should insist on it rather than tolerating her and inter acting with her in the Parliament.
im not sure who she is but is she the PPPP female who was part of the group of MPs who went to India??
tombstone39: even though I hate/detest and deplore PPPP but what ever sherry said was not at all blasphemous . You dont know what these moulanas can come up with , I was watching a program aired by ARY on love marriges and a moulana out there dint have a fcukin clue to what he was talking about .......
I think moulana bakri should find a bakra and spend a happy ever after life.
Bilal: Yes she is the same person.

I agree with you about the narrow minded moulanas, but in the context of that discussion Bakri only quoted the Quran and Sunnah. The moulanas on our domestic scene have exposed themselves and it is a pity that many Pakistanis even listen to them. As for that female she is a disgrace to womanhood.
Mr TS hombe
Two things
USING PBUH doesnt make u a better muslim does it say that in the quran and sunnah?? she might be a better muslim then u b4 making such accusitions please think twice. In this day and age u sound worse then the spanish accusition .
Religion is between God and man and u have no right to charge ppl with blasphamy cause they dint use the word PBUH. tsk tsk tsk
when will we come out of the dark ages........
Not saying PBUH itself does not constitute a violation of the Blasphemy laws, because her statement did not insult the Holy Prophet (SAWS) - she did not say anything negative about him. It merely did not accord the extra respect that Muslims normally give him.
If she explicity said that that the Quranic injunctions and the Sunnah are redundant, than that would be a violation of the laws.
If, on the other hand, you are just deducing that that is what she meant, she's probably safe.
What were her exact words?
More people charged with blasphemy laws is just what Pakistan DOES NOT need. What does it matter what some Sherry Rahman says about the prophet? Will it effect your own faith? If it does, you are the one with the weak faith.
“Burn her shez accused of witchcraft!”, as the church would say! And I am pretty sure if the so called clerics would not have passed a death sentence over Rushdie, he would not be a world wide celebrity like he is. Truly this is our dark age.

the base of religion is not fear!....u cant force someone to show extra respect to Prophet Muhammad(PBUH)

Once a man came to Hazrat Umar (ra) and he said that in something the Prophet (saw) has given a decision against me and the decision went in favor of a Jew. He said to Umar (ra) if he could look over this matter. Umar (ra) asked him if the Prophet (saw) had decided? He said that yes the Prophet (saw) has given the decision. Hazrat Umar (ra) brought his sword and beheaded him.

I heard this and don't remember if it was a hadith or some saying. If anybody has heard this and knows the source please post it.
yup Islamabad is right; don't have a source! a famous incidence!
then Hazrat Umer was tried by Hazrat Muhammed PBUH for a murder and during his trial, a message was sent to Hazrat Muhammed PBUH from Allah that Hazrat Umer did what he should have done i.e. the man isulted Hazrat Muhammed & Hazrat Umer's decision to kill him was right!
1000 apologies if something i've said is wrong!
And then we wonder why the apponents of Islam think that it's not a very tolerant religion ...
Unless you provide the source I do not believe in this event. Hadeeths are also not 100% accurate. Islam is a religion of mercy and compassion and not of hate and intolerance. The prophet pbuh was mocked at, thrown stones at in his life and he remained compassionate. Indeed that is a sign of a prophet.
Exactly. How can we complain about any racial profiling against Muslims overseas, when we treat the Christians and other non-muslims in our country in such disdain? This is really common sense.

We do not treat Christians and non-Muslims with disdain. As a Muslim country we are supposed to protect our minorities. In our tribal areas the tribes do protect the minorities. Isolated incidents by few fanatics are condemned by all. All our governments protect the minoritis as a policy unlike our so-called 'democratic and secular' neighbour, where it is the state policy to exterminate the minorities. As for the blasphemy question, why does anybody have to profane our Holy Prophet [P.B.U.H.] to test our tolerance? The Muslims living in other lands do not insult the Christians and other faiths. I referred to Sherry Rehman because being a Muslim and Pakistani she is encouraging the non-Muslims by her misguided 'liberism'. She is obviously playing to the western gallery as some on this thread have done. Nasreena Jalil the Bangladeshi writer has also tried to be 'liberal'.
In Islam, anybody insulting the personality of the Prophet (saw) has a death sentence! For thieves hands are to be cut as directed by the Quran, for adulterers and adultresses 100 lashes are to be given.
So does this mean that Islam is in any way intolerant religion? Certainly not! The problem is that we have started judging things by Western standards.
