READER COMMENTS

There are a lot of positions that reflect tolerance, forgiveness toward enemies and good ethics in dealing with the companions of Prophet Mohammed, blessings and peace be upon him. Our dear Prophet endured a lot in order to preach our religion. His people have mocked him, expelled him and tortured him and all his followers. Despite that, Prophet Mohammed, blessings and peace be upon him, forgave them, given that our dear Prophet had been called since his early childhood as the honest and the trustworthy. In fact, he had been characterized by faithfulness and generosity. In this respect, Anas Ibn Malek, may Allah bless him, said: “the Messenger of Allah has never declined any demand”. Prophet Mohamed, blessings and peace be upon him, had also been well-mannered and considerate. In this respect, Anas Ibn Malek said: “I have served the Prophet, blessings and peace be upon him, for ten years and he has never said to me Ugh. He has never asked why I have done this and not done so and so”. Prophet Mohammed, blessings and peace be upon him, was really the best of God’s creation. In fact, Islam came as a blessing for the worlds and was preached by the most merciful of God’s creations, our Prophet Mohammed, blessings and peace be upon him.

A lot of Quranic verses have shown that corruption has become widespread because people have wreaked havoc on earth. In fact, this actually takes place when people got angry and started to destroy their country and properties. Sometimes they even destroy themselves when they dare torture themselves and other people for the sake of conveying their ideologies. Thus, this community is really unbalanced and affected by a lot of defects which prevented individuals from the ability to think appropriately at the right time and place. It is really strange that we are still deploring and condemning in the same silly way which is repeated whenever the Holy Prophet, blessings and peace be upon him, or anything that relates to our Islamic religious beliefs are abused. In fact, we have deplored and burnt many times but this behavior has led to nothing but increasing the oppressors’ might. For instance, two years ago, we were affected by the same thing from some Danish, Dutch, and Austrian parties. Thus, Muslims must be aware that the issue is not a mere crisis which will be solved through condemning or burning one or two cars, given that violence is self-defeating. A Muslim is not supposed to adjust his behaviors in order to be judged as a true Muslim and weak person. He should rather control his acts in order to serve the interests of his religion. Thus, when Muslims get stronger in their religion and life, possess all life necessities and no longer ask others for their daily living, they will defeat the entire world.

Muslim scholars in the Arab World and all over the world must take to the streets and guide the Muslim youth. They must clarify to them how the Messenger of Allah used to deal with people who harmed him and with people who have different views. This is in order to prevent the youth from committing acts indictable by the Islamic religion. We, as Muslims, strongly indict what happened to the US Ambassador to Libya. Indeed, he was killed during the protests made by the Libyan people in front of the US Embassy. It goes without saying that all people know that this is not the nature of Islam and Muslims, however infuriated they may be. We must punish the person responsible for these acts as he killed an innocent person who committed no sin except that he came to carry out his duty assigned to him by his country. If Islam the religion of mercy, tolerance orders us not to abuse the one who abuses us, how could we kill an innocent person, however we may differ with him in ideas and thinking? Thus, we stress the important role of the religious scholars who should guide people through their sermons and messages to the Muslim masses. They should remind them of the Prophet’s method, his ethics which do not accept such things.

We all know the disaster of the film that has attacked our beloved Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. Thus, we must respond by showing the reality of our Prophet. In fact, we must show that our Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, is the best creature in terms of ethics, generosity and worship. In fact, he has ordered people to stop harming others and to be patient. This is in addition to the good treatment. Do you see who is Muhammad, peace be upon him? He has ordered us to protect you, to treat you in the best way and to provide security and safety for you in our country. However, you have harmed him with these despicable actions. In fact, our Prophet was sent by God as a mercy for us. May God help Islam and Muslims and may God help the victory of our Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him.
