Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia calls for international criminalization of insults to prophets

This is what the violence and protests are all about. This is what the goal is. There will be more and more calls like this in the coming days. "Grand Mufti urges criminalizing abusing prophets," by Rob Wagner for Arab News, September 16 (thanks to Benedict):

The Kingdom’s Grand Mufti Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Asheikh called on the international community to criminalize acts of abusing great prophets and messengers such as Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (peace be upon them all), according to a statement issued today.

The statement was issued in response film in the United States denigrating Islam and ridiculing the Prophet (pbuh).

Al-Asheikh also appealed to the Ummah to react to any attempt to denigrate Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) by strictly adhering to the values advocated by the Prophet (pbuh) instead of unleashing violence against innocent people, the Saudi Press Agency reported.

“Condemnation of the attempts to abuse the Prophet (pbuh) should be within the Law of Allah and Sunnah of the Prophet. The Muslims should not shed the blood of innocent people, or vandalize private properties or of public institutions,” the Grand Mufti said.

The mufti said the attempts of a filmmaker filled with hatred to Islam would not harm the great personality of the Prophet (pbuh) or anything in Islam in any manner but would only reflect on the people who spread venomous ideas.

Then why does it have to be outlawed?

The 'Grand Mufti' is, as we say in Ireland, full of it.

Grand Mufti Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Asheikh said, "The Muslims should not shed the blood of innocent people..."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fliG1doz240

Something to remember.

The Grand Mufti's instruction manual denigrates me:

"Unbelievers are the vilest of animals" Quran 8:55

I want the Grand Mufti's instruction manual criminalized.

"Condemnation of the attempts to abuse the Prophet (pbuh) should be within the Law of Allah and Sunnah of the Prophet."

Exactly.

Islamic law does NOT apply to the USA and it never will.

British leftards will introduce strict blasphemy laws under guise of 'incitement':

"Over at Hope Not Hate, Nick Lowles suggests that if Lennon does try to screen the film the EDL leader "should immediately be prosecuted for incitement".

But incitement to what? Not racial hatred, as Muslims are defined as a multi-ethnic faith community and, unlike Jews or Sikhs, are not covered by the racial hatred law. Perhaps incitement to religious hatred, then? But the religious hatred law requires that the language or images used should be "threatening" and, further, that the prosecution should prove intent. An attempted prosecution under the latter legislation would fall at the first hurdle, since judging by the YouTube trailer The Innocence of Muslims contains no actual threats. And how could it be proved that Lennon's intention was to incite hatred, as he would undoubtedly deny this, claiming instead that he merely intended to inform the public about the true nature of Islam?

Once again, we run up against the utter inadequacy of the existing religious hatred law. While we can hardly expect that the present Tory-led government will do anything to rectify this situation, it is an issue that a future Labour government will have to urgently address.

"The Kingdom’s Grand Mufti Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Asheikh called on the international community to criminalize acts of abusing great prophets and messengers such as Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (peace be upon them all), according to a statement issued today."

So it is an act of abuse to make films and cartoons denigrating prophets. I would assume the same goes for books.
So naturally we can assume that he wants to delete the verses in the quran that denigrates Jesus Christ by saying he was not the son of God and not crusified. They wouldn't want to hurt the feelings of the christians and denigrate everything they believe in, right?

Should he be interested in the international community criminalizing hate speech, incitement to violence and religious hatred, then I can think of another few verses of the quran that will need a little adjustment.

If you want to change something, start with yourself....

Off Topic but relevant! We are at a particularly teachable moment here in Australia after yesterday's riot in Sydney. The hashtag #sydneyriot is trending on Twitter. Lots of bewildered people, lots of lefty excuses. We need more of you on there. Share your thoughts and paste links to Jihad Watch and 'Religion of Peace'. Thanks for your help!

Muslims are enraged because deep down they know the things the film said about Muhammad are true, & have now been shown to the non Muslim population.

This international blasphemy law would form apart of the Islamic treaty.

Agreed to under the threat of death.

The game has moved up a notch - after knowing by rote how the Prophet murdered almost anyone who criticized him - or mocked his claim to be a messenger from Allah of the old polytheist Kaaba religion - and after reciting off all the stories of all the battles Muhammad sent his men out - to fight people until they either converted or paid the jizya/extortion and accepted a subjugated dhimmi status - the Saudis claim that the Prophet would not have acted in this way against innocent people.

Now - armed with the Islamic mindset almost everywhere its followers go - there are problems - and in each case - South Thailand, the Philippines, Pakistan... - in Europe where Muslims have migrated to and now in the US - the only solution to this "problem" with others - is to introduce Islamic laws.

The Saudi Kingdom - the Oil Caliphate - wants to blanket the world - bringing all nations under a single Islamic Shari'a blasphemy law.

::

The film maker was a Copt - Egyptian law based on the Shari'a forbids equality with Muslims - also a part of the Islamic 'peace' treaty - after you are attacked. Equality with Muslims is also 'offensive' to Islam.

Koran 9:29

::

From Salman Rushdie to this!!

To world leaders siding with the Iranian Ayatollah's position. The Saudis would probably be overjoyed if they achieved his ambition first. Then all we have to do - is to wait to see what else they want to ban. They will seek to take control. Remember criticism of which will be unlawful!

Taqiyyah Q. 3:28, 16:106 spewing Grand Mufti of Sowdi Barbaria

"...The Muslims should not shed the blood of innocent people"

NO kafir (unbeliever) is innocent!!

Blasphemy law of Allah, Q. 5:73 "They do blaspheme who say: Allah is one of three in a Trinity (God of Christians, shirk): for there is no god except One God. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them."

shirk Arabic: شرك‎ širk (the sin of idolatry, or polytheism, or Paganism, e.g. like "three Gods" of Christianity, i.e. associating partners with Allah)

MEMRI had his full statement yesterday, but I can't find it now. There's so much on there. Anyway, he had a nice little qualifier in his full statement in which he said that he condemned "all violence contrary to shari'ah law".

So I guess that makes all this OK, then. The classic, Islamic get-out-of-jail-free card. Nice one!

Islam should not have more protection from insult than the believers of the flying spaghetti monster. Until muslims learn not to insult other religions (or murder their believers) I don't think they deserve not to be ridiculed.

Throwing rocks toward the sky in order to hit Muhammad would result in severe punishment. But in America anger aimed at Allah and his servant Muhammad is permitted, even throwing rocks at their homes in the clouds.

How about international criminalization of suicide bombings, mass bomb attacks, murdering Christians, FGM, forced marriages, paedophilia, burning churches, halal, sharia, etc., etc? I suppose he considers all of those quite acceptable - I think he has a bit of a problem with perspective, priorities and proportionality - along with millions of followers of the 7th century cult of evil

"Grand Mufti urges criminalizing abusing prophets"

Abusing?

A peaceful prophet does not retaliate. He knows there is a judgment day.

A violent prophet - produces men like Abdul Aziz Al-Asheikh who bows to the following:

047.004 - Beheadings

033.052 - Gang Rape of female 'infidels'

005.033 - Crucifixions

008.067 - Treason (perjury in a non-muslim court is commanded when defending islam)

033.061 - Genocide "without mercy"

005.041 - Racism

The complete opposite of....

Thou shalt not lie
Thou shalt not steal
Thou shalt not cheat
Thou shalt not murder
Thou shalt not covet

And this is WHY (it is the ONLY reson why) Abdul Aziz Al-Asheikh wants freedom of speech taken away.

In my book - that makes him pure evil.

@David
"Muslims are enraged because deep down they know the things the film said about Muhammad are true"

There's truth in what you say - but there's another way to look at Muslim rage .....

deep down Muslims are uncomprehending "soccer hooligans".
All they know is that it's their team (Islam) against all the other teams.
Muslims have given about as much thought to their support of Islam as the real soccer hooligans have given to which team they support, in other words NONE.
They support the team of their village or town or country.
Like the real soccer hooligans, besotted by beer and a love of violence and cracking heads, the Muslim hooligans are besotted by Islam and a love of beheading.
Even more than the real soccer hooligans, their whole world is wrapped up in their "team".
All their pride, all their meaning in life, all their dignity as a man - and so to insult Islam or Muhammed is to question and threaten their whole existence.

It's as if in "dar al-Islam" - Jihad is the national sport.

In fact it's false to even say that there is a deep down to Muslims.
Most Muslims don't even know what the Koran says about Muhammad.
Most Muslims have never read the Koran, most Muslims can't read.
All they know is what the Imam tells them at Mosque, before they're sent out after their "Friday prayers and pep rally" to kill the opposing team.

Just because we in the West are rational and practice freedom of thought and speech and religion and spend inordinate amounts of time debating everything, doesn't mean it's correct to dignify Muslims with a presumption of the same level of civilized thought.
Most Muslims operate more on the level of brute force and instinct.


So now the blackmale comes .
They learned the terrorism works so now it send a message to Obama that if you enforce Shariahs blasphemy laws we would riots and murder non-muslims.
islam is being exposed as the vile and savage death-cult it was formed into by the pedophilie false-prophet muhammad.
It's too late for CAIR to push their islam=peace crap anymore. It's over Hooper, your people have shown over and over agins that they are prone to murder and violence because of the tenets of islam and muhammad's actions they emulate.
Time to drive a wooden stake through the heart of this cancerous cult and stop the global genecide by the 1.2 billion automotons that are mostly uneducated yahoos wishing to die for allah to spread peace.

"Then why does it have to be outlawed?"

Because the Mufti is lying, and he knows it. Because Muslims are leaving Islam by the millions, and he knows it. Because Islam is Dying, and he knows it. Because Muslim clerics are, as one of them put it, "living a tragedy".
http://crossmuslims.blogspot.com/2010/05/dying-islam-lislam-mourant.html

I have watched Sam Bacile's Muhammad video. It was badly made and poorly acted. However beneath it all, the acts portrayed in which Muhammad was involved are confirmed by the Quran, Sunnah and Sirah.

Why this Bacile character wasted his time and money on such a farce is beyond me, but when all is said and done the resulting rioting and killing were completely unnecssary.... but the Muslim male loves to shout Allahu Akbar and blame everyone else but himself for his troubles.

By Muslim reasoning if the Taliban kill Prince Harry in Afghanistan...... we should all start throwing fire bombs and killing the nearest Muslims to hand...... Oh what a disgusting 'religion' it is.

Hey Grand Mufti? Mufti this:

My middle finger.
