:}\nI'm afraid you will have to settle for the more recent cartoons . Muslims would never have left such an artifact for fear the truth would be seen in his likeness.

I dont think Islam respects anyone who doesnt see like they do, which may be true for other religions too, but "death to the infidels" is a uniquely Muslim idea that may bear upon the poor image.

It "humanized" muslim prophet Mohammed, same as "The Last Temptation of Christ" humanized Christ, although none of the Christians put out a head contract on anyone, like the silly muslim mullahs did.\n\nThe controversy is about the insecurity that muslims feel about their religion. It was created out of war and strife, and immediately after Mohammed died, his apostles engaged in bloody war. Most muslims are not allowed to interpret Kuran, so they lean on their mullahs to guide them, which causes them to agitate anytime mullahs tell them Islam has been insulted.

As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullah.\n\nInsha'Allah, the answer is simple. By definition, a Muslim leaves Islam when he worships anyone or anything other than Allah. So, the answer is that he is no longer a Muslim once he worships a statue (of anything). We're not allowed to worship MUHAMMAD himself, let alone a statue of him. :)\n\nAnd, so of course, no, we cannot support that individual who made the statue in any sense.

There is nothing in the Koran nor mainstream doctrines of Islam that supports or condones any terrorist acts.  Suicide bombers are merely weak-minded pawns of manipulative people who use an Islam-esque facade to mask their own twisted agendas.  To associate Islam with such acts would be similar to associating mainstream Christianity with nut-jobs like David Koresh or associating Americans with Ted Bundy.

you can never have picture of prophet mohammed\n\ninstead looking his face or body better you see what he is in person how his character affected to change billions of people for better life.. worshiping with dignity only one Allah and leaving out other gods people associates

I believe that along with the freedom of speech comes the responsibility to respect other people and their beliefs.  The prophet Mohammed is not the Danish people's prophet to blaspheme, and they should respect Muslim beliefs.  I'm not Muslim, but I try to respect what others believe, because I would hope to get the same respect myself.  It upsets me when people make a mockery of Christ.  If you don't believe, then just leave it alone.

Quote\n========\nIslam is the official religion and prevades all aspects of life and the observance of any other religion is not accepted here. Public display of non-Islamic religious articles are not permitted and will get confiscated if found. Non-Muslim religious services are illegal. Travel to Makkah & Madinah, the cities where the two Holy Mosques of Islam are located, is forbidden to non-Muslims. The importation and use of narcotics, alcohol and pork-products is also forbidden. Penalties for importing drugs are severe and include death penalty.\nUnquote\n========\nThis is from the survival section in Jeddah today guide 2006.\n--------------------------------------\nMy opinion is this is the country of Islam, and is an Islamic Monarchy.\nIf some European countries such as Greece, do not want to build a Mosque for the muslims there since the 1970's. Then Saudi Arabia, has the right to do what it sees right.

No. According to Islam, a person has the right to choose his religion. He can switch to any religion he or she want.

Absolutely not.  The Koran is as much God's word as the phone book is.  Both were written by men.  Allah is a false God and no on one in the civilized world gives a damn about Muslims anyway.  They have made NO impact on the spiritual growth or awareness of people on earth at all.

I suspect not ... ask Salman Rushdie !\n\nRight or wrong the fall-out from even a small slight on Islam would be massive ... it appears that the Islamic religion is unable to accept any level of parody.  I am not making a racist point here just reminding folks over the furor over a few cartoons.\n\nPeace Out.

Actually some muslim newspaper is going to publish cartoons about holocaust and exuse with freedom of speech. Still I think these are too differnt things. People had died during holocaust, and Mohammed is just a religios figure. Even more, poeple actually die in his name....
