Denmark drawing
This is me Karim. I usually don't write on the blog, maybe because I don't have time, but today I need to say some thing about what is going on in Denmark. What they did from couple weeks ago I read in the news that they made many caricatures, pictures for our prophet Mohamed being a terrorist carrying guns and bombs in the pictures. what an awful thing to do for some one or some religion they don't even know any thing about but some shallow information from the media. what did we do as Muslims to the Danish people to be sarcastic from our prophet like this?.
And when we start saying that we are angry from this act they said this is the freedom of speech. Here I would like to clear some thing. Most of the people who practice freedom of speech are ignorant. There is a difference between insulting someone and saying your opinion. For example, we as Muslims never pictured Jesus as a bad person or dumb or a bad guy or any kind of insults , or any other prophet--Moses or Abraham--in fact, we respect them because that is what our religion asked us to do.
Nonetheless, I can't blame some ignorant people for being ignorant. But, I blame them when they start reading about Islam, or at least the Holy Quran, just one page, and then we can talk and blame.
