Use the profession of your knowledge and investigate about the religion Islam and the Holy Messenger Prophet Mohammad (SAW) and His progeny(pbut) and you will see that any accusation against them uttered from you or any other will not assist you. In fact you will find the opposite provided in the Holy Quran,the books written by the Imams and historical facts even from the enemies about what kind of people they actually are and what kind of deeds they fulfilled. Then perhaps by the evidence provided you will release that the religion Islam and the foremost Muslims are wrongly accused in this age of time and there are none evidence supporting its accusations. Believe me even if other supported you, digging with tooth and nail even if you wanted to remove or change something by trying to find any accusations against them You will all fail miserably. So the only thing provided by people who accuse other without evidence are nothing but slander and lies, then why would you like to have this kind of "freedom" of speech is beyond my understanding.

No one in this world has a right to insult any person or any religion. As it is prohibited in Islam about all this nonsense, so please you all people of wikipedia and of this page. I can see a similar type of picture as on wikipedia's page. STOP INSULTING AND HURTING PEOPLE'S FEELINGS AND THEIR holy prophet.u nonsense people u will die in ur ignorance inshallah n u wil b questioned it in the nxt world.remove it as soon as posile

jis ne picture send ki hai os ko ALLAH ki tarf sey azab miley ga

For those who oppose this petition there is a copy of of Muhammad on pissedoffpirate.com/muhammad.html From the way the website reads, it looks like they want anyone to grab a copy. I suggest placing it on your desktop, perhaps print it out and leave it around, just so that YOU know that you are protesting the act of censorship and that you support free speech and free minds.

this is a time to bicotte the contry who issued the Hazrat Muhammad's (pbuh) pics

Leave the pictures!!!! No religion has any rights to apply for something. Leave your religion in your house.

From http://bibleprobe.com/muh ammad.htm: We apologize to anyone who may be offended by the history of the founder of Islam (Muhammad) below. And we are aware of the sensitivities involved. However, infinitely more damage has been done to Islam's "believers" by Islam's history of withholding the truth about its founder to them -- - and the circumstances surrounding its inception -- than any "damage" this true history below can cause. The truth below is extremely painful to Muslims, who have become accustomed to hearing lies all their life. As you will see below, Muhammad posed as an apostle of God. Yet his life is filled with lustfulness (12 marriages and sex with a child, slaves and concubines), rapes, warfare, conquests, and unmerciful butcheries. The infinitely good, just and all holy God simply cannot tolerate anything in the least unjust or sinful. What Muhammad produced in the Qur'an is simply a book of gibberish consisting of later evil verses abrogating (superseding) earlier peaceful verses. These verses in Arabic poetically "tickle" the ears of Arab listeners. Islam is a caustic blend of paganism and twisted Bible stories. Muhammad, its lone "prophet", who made no prophecies, conceived his religion to satiate his lust for power, sex, and money. He was a terrorist. And if you think these conclusions are shocking, wait until you see the evidence mostly from Islamic historians below. 70% of what is here is from Muslim and ex-Muslim historians - back to the 8th century. If anyone truly reads the badly written Qur'an, while comparing it side-by-side with what Islamic historians back to 750 A.D. have written about Muhammad they will have to conclude that Muhammad was a conman and, "Allah" was Muhammad's alter ego. Inventing "Allah" allowed Muhammad to wield control over everyone's life by telling him or her he is a representative of God, and what he says is what God has ordained. The Qur'an is filled with so many errors - making it extremely hard to believe that this creator of our awesome universe could be so stupid as to author such a thing. It could have only come from a sick, demented mind. One "hell bent" on dominating all those people around him.

This is what www.bibleprobe.com, writes about Islam and Allah. Meanwhile, the Muslim Hadith says the following about blacks: Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Apostle said, "You should listen to and obey, your ruler even if he was an Ethiopian (black) slave whose head looks like a raisin." (Sahih Bukhari Volume 9, Book 89, Number 256) Hadith; vol.9:162,163: Muhammad warned that dreams of black women meant disease was forthcoming. Black Muslims today are so uninformed that they don't even understand that Muhammad had many black slaves and called them raisin heads (Hadith vol.1:662, vol.9:256) Muslims are told that Africans have hearts “grosser than a donkey” (Surah 9:61) . Ishaq: 243 "I heard the Apostle say: ‘Whoever wants to see Satan should look at Nabtal!' He was a black man with long flowing hair, inflamed eyes, and dark ruddy cheeks…. Allah sent down concerning him: ‘To those who annoy the Prophet there is a painful punishment." [Surah 9:61] "Gabriel came to Muhammad and said, ‘If a black man comes to you his heart is more gross than a donkey's.'"Yet and still Louis Farrakan and his followers will tell us the lie that Christianity is the white man's religion. Jesus came for all regardless of color, but Black Islam is especially designed just to lead Black folks to hell! It was the peaceful Christian's in America who stopped all slavery here. Who really is Allah? The Qur'an (Koran) says that Allah desires to lead people astray (Qur'an Sura 6:39, 126). He does not help those who are led astray by him (Sura 30:29), and Allah desires to use them to populate hell (Sura 32:13).

I do not understand on what grounds they have to argue that they should have 'special liberties' as they are no different from anyone else... they were attacked in the Crusades, but that is conquest not genocide however the witchhunts or the holocausts and even the Christians were treated as occult in the olden days... in short, no they should not be given special consideration beyond that of anyone else. This is fair considering the fact that we are currently at war with the country who has the most Muslims and the other major Muslim countries have been violating the missile treaties left and right while simultaneously giving shelter and work to A.D Quadeer, who had previously armed the North Korean, Iranian and Iraqi militarys and terrorist cells with nuclear weapons and technology.

I think they should take it out. It just shows that they don't have respect for Muslims. To WPG (Founder/Leader): Your comment is offensive not only to Muslims, but to everyone. "That's why no-one likes them." I like them. And apparently the 1401 other people who signed the petition like them as well.

Just because there were some Iraquis who happen to be Muslim are terrorists, it doesn't mean that every Muslim in this world is a horrible terrorist. People call them Muslim extremists, but no one is pushing their religion on any body else. Blame terrorists, not Muslims or Iraquis.

Why is Muhammad so fuc*ing sacred? Why dont Christians throw a hissy-fit when they see a pic of Jesus? Muslims are whiny little bitc*es. Thats why no-one likes them.

People have no respect for muslims.

To the painters, Personally I don’t blame you because you don’t really know anything about that man you meant to insult together with all his followers.Of course , you are surprised because of this unexpected reaction of all muslims all over the world. You may think that it is strange & rather barbarian .Well, we agree that some expressed their anger badly. But don’t forget that those who reacted are of different levels of learning, even of their own religion : as a true muslim shouldn’t behave in a furious way. Most of them don’t give you any excuse at all ; as if you were muslims yourselves & are aware that you ‘re humiliating your great prophet .Anyway their message was clear “HOW DARE YOU!!!!!!!!”. However, let us speak on the humanitarian level. Is it proper to draw such a mean & nasty caricature of a dear person to someone you know or actually don’t .Don’t tell me that you are free to draw whatever you like. You do know that this drawing will be printed , published & seen by others. So, Haven’t you cared to think that some of those “others” may get hurt & insulted accordingly because you have humiliated the symbol of their beliefs. This is not freedom. It is impudence & shamelessness. Isn’t it? Even a bad painter would have liked to have an idea about the character he was going to draw a picture of.Specially,if this character is beloved & followed by millions of people. Is it indifference, or a call for sectarian sedition!!?? Anyway, if what you’ve drawn is all what you know about Mouhammad & Islam, you are invited to learn more about this religion & that man to reconsider what you ‘ve done. Try to read with an open mind & heart about Mouhammad .At least to realize why he is respected , loved & followed by all those millions of people who believe in all prophets as well. I advise you to read A good translation of the HOLY QURAN. Try to be objective. Try to learn about “The Other”. Then you are free to make your own judgment & decision to accept or decline….”take it or leave it”, as you say. But I’m sure that after your honest reading, you ‘ll Never be indifferent, rude or uncivilized again

This is in response to Amy W. and anyone else who puts misinformation and innuendo out on the internet: Separation of church and state was put in the Constitution for one reason: so that one religion's principles would not overwhelm the people's right to practice as they please with whatever god they chose. You must remember that inb England, The Church of England was the only church allowed, and the appropiate religion the only one allowed. Well, as you can see, they eliminated requiring citizens of the new nation to adhere to one official religion. I personally don't like when it's inferred that what I believe in makes me less than or inferior to you. I don't tell you how to believe and you don't tell me how to believe. I don't need to hear someone's opinion about how they believe especially when it's coming from a book that started in 600 B.C. and endorses slavery, mass murder, being put to death for working on the sabbath, and endorsing 2nd class status for women. So what if Muhhamed's picture is up on some website? Why would anyone get angry at his picture being shone anyway? If that gets people upset, maybe they need to really think what kind of example they are demonstrating.

"Christianity is the most perverted system that ever shone on Man." Thomas Jefferson, 3rd U.S.President. I think this quote is more accurate about the affairs of any religion than anything I've ever heard from anyone. If you want to learn of an interesting bit of Jeffersonian history read Ana Celia E's comment.

I think its stupid people getting offended about seeing a picture of someone being posted someone
its just a guy. hes nothing special. You should get over it. Religion i based on someones idea. Its fake used to control the common people b/c they dont want to think for theirselves, well most of them, most humans are sheep the ones that arnt are the wolves leading the sheep.

Deal with it People! Get over it. Throughout the centuries, no idea in this world has caused more hostility and human death (homicides really!) than religion. Greater even than all the wars fought over kingdoms, lands and seas! Indeed, we are all victims of it even today as the American tragedy of 9/11 will attest. And all religions are guilty of these atrocities as they seek to force others to believe as they do. It's time we as an intelligent species living upon this planet grow beyond this petty fighting and killing over differences in our beliefs in and of the nature of a deity. Whether or not God exists is secondary to the issue that we all seem to differ about the nature of this god and the various religious rituals and beliefs that surround the entire idea. We humans are better than this! We can grow beyond this petty bickering. We have the capacity to live together in peace and prosperity upon this planet, and we can do this by embracing our differences - recognizing that they are a source of our strength and diversity. They are NOT a weakness. The bottom line is, everyone has a right to believe in whatever it is he or she wishes to believe in; indeed, a right even to believe in nothing. And no one has the right to impose their religious beliefs and practices upon others - although most of the world's religions would tell you otherwise. You can advertise, you can teach, you can lead by example, But you CANNOT impose! Perhaps that is one of the greatest sins: ill respect of the rights of others to believe and live as they wish.

Until this species can grasp this idea and put it into practice, there is no hope. The Christians will not win; the Muslims will not win; the Jews will not win, etc. But many will die. God didn't intend for things to turn out like this! From the point of view of the Creator, this is all shear madness. Get over it!

Give me a break. If your offended by the pictures, who cares. I'm offended when I see people from the middle east burning our flag, beheading our citizens, spitting on our nation, in the name of Allah.
You won't tolerate this any longer???? Are we suspose to be afraid.. Whoa, I'm shaking in my shoes. Take your best shot..We have a better one for you this time. If you don't like my country, GO HOME and don't let the door hit you inthe butt on the way out.
Maybe it is our nation that won't tolerate anymore...Just don't make threats on America or our people any more. WE ARE NOT AFRAID.

Removes these pictures immediately... We Muslims are the only people who respect Prophet Essa(Jesus) and Prophet Muhammad(S.A.W.) both..One cant be a Muslim if he/she disrespects even one Prophet of Allah. We dont make pictures of any Prophet and so we want these pictures to be removed or the Muslims will not tolerate these acts any longer and things will get severe as they had been in the past.

I don't judge a book by it's cover, there is only one who has that wright Pic don't bother me ,peoples character's do.There is good and bad in every religion.

If you don't want to see a picture of Muhammed don't look at it. This is the problem with intolerance and intolerant people. Go live somewhere where everyone lives (or is forced to live) by the same values. The US is (still) a free society. Let's keep it that way.

I looked at some images of Muhammad and thought for the most part they were respectfully done, like some images of Jesus. Neither are meant to offend only inform. If there are negative comments, chances are they come from uninformed people who are afraid of things they don't understand. We'll all be judged in the end for our own behavior, don't become ignorant to prove a point.

Since most of the comments of the creator of this petition can no longer be read, I'm not sure exactly what they are getting at. However, there are some
truisms that I'm certain apply to this situation.

(1) The truth is its own defense.

(2) In countries with freedom of speech, no one has
the right not to be offended.

(3) People of any religious conviction need to come to
terms with the fact that their religious taboos
cannot be applied to others outside that
particular faith.

(4) Those who seriously believe that their religious
taboos should be recognized by all outsiders (and
who are troubled beyond endurance when this is
not practiced) should for their peace of mind
and public safety contemplate emmigrating to a
nation that considers it important to
prohibit freedom of speech in order to enforce the
religious taboos of that particular faith.

(5) Those who appreciate living in a country with
democratic government and rights such as freedom
of speech need for the sake of peace and harmony
to seize and desist from trying to force their
religious taboos on others.

I think this pretty much covers my position on this
subject.

We respect Jesus Christ PBUH and in the same way we expect you to respect our Prophet PBUH
