What Did Islam Say About Blasphemy by jumper524(m): 7:27am On May 13, 2022
There is nothing in the Quran or the authentic teachings of Prophet Muhammad justifying the killing of people for opposing, criticizing, humiliating or showing irreverence toward holy personages, religious artifacts, customs and beliefs of Islam.

The Quran says:
Revile not ye those whom they call upon besides Allah,
lest they out of spite revile Allah in their ignorance.
Thus We have made alluring to each people its own doings.
In the end will they return to their Lord,
and We shall then tell them the truth of all that they did. [6:108]

Also

who believe! Let not some men among you ridicule others:
It may be that the (latter) are better than the (former):
Nor let some women ridicule others: It may be that the (latter are better than the (former):
Nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames:
Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (to be used of one) after he has believed:
And those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong. [49:11]

Those who avoid the greater crimes and shameful deeds, and, when they are angry even then forgive;" [42:37]

Defiling the Quran is punishable by imprisonment for life and defaming Prophet Muhammad by death with or without a fine. None of these codes have any basis in the Quran or the authentic teachings of the Prophet . It is a position that many scholars adopted under the influence of despotism that prevailed in the Muslim world for centuries and still prevails in many countries. This position is rarely challenged by those who claim to have knowledge of the Quran and Sunna. Often, they use their religious authority to suppress debate on the issue.

The tyranny of religious scholars is so intense that those opposed to these laws are condemned as non-Muslims punishable by death. Some of the scholars even encourage their followers to unleash terror against such people. Their arrogance has reached to a point that they do not want to listen to any argument based on the Quran and the teachings of the Quran. The religious and educational institutions of the Muslim world suffer from the tyranny of these scholars who justify their ignorance and arrogance on the basis of a literature that emerged at a time, when Muslims had lost connection with the Quran and by and large were at the mercy of despotic rulers and their hired religious scholars.

The un-Quanic and un-Prophetic practices adopted by many Muslims scholars must be challenged. Islam is not the monopoly of self-imposed scholars. It is a faith given to people for their well being and guidance without any interference from any authority other than Allah , the almighty.. Those who assume the divine role in condemning people and deciding their life and death must be challenged and what better way than to seek the repelling of blasphemy law in light of the Quran and Sunna.

If Muslim religious scholars are seriously concerned about the sensitivities of people with regards to their faith and its holy figures, then they should advocate common laws for every religion and religious community emphasizing that respect must be shown to all religions and freedom of speech must not be seen as a license to hurt and provoke others.

It is time that Muslim scholars from all over the world revisit issues such as blasphemy and apostasy in the light of the Quran and Sunna rather than falling victim to positions that can not be substantiated by the divine writ.

IF blasphemy was punishable by death in Islam, then the Prophet would have been the first one to order the killing of hundreds of his foes who later became his closest companions. With the exception of a very few earlier Arabs who accepted the Prophet as the Messenger of Allah , the majority of people of Makkah opposed him, humiliated him, cursed or blasphemed him or even tried to kill him, yet he preferred to practice forgiveness and to seek the divine mercy for them.

The old woman who used to throw garbage on the Prophet was visited by him when he did not see her throwing it anymore to learn that she was not well. When Suhail bin Amr, a poet who composed poetry blaspheming the Prophet was taken as a prisoner of war after the battle of Badr, the Prophet asked his companions to show kindness to him. There are examples after examples to prove that the Prophet never resorted to violence against those who were showing utter

Quran 2:191 – “And kill them wherever you find them…”

Critics as usual apply ‘cut and choose’ approach with regards to this passage (Quran 2:191). They only quote, “And kill them wherever you find them…(2:191). However, when we read the passage in its context (2:190-195) it says opposite what they portray of the verse.

Quran 2:190 – 195

2:190 Fight in the way of Godthose who fight you but do not transgress. Indeed. God does not like transgressors.
2:191 And kill them wherever you find them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah [Persecution] is worse than killing. And do not fight them at al-Masjid al- Haram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.
2:192 And if they cease, then indeed, God is Forgiving and Merciful.
2:193 Fight them until there is no [more] fitnah [Persecution] and [until] worship is for God. But if they cease, then there is to be no aggression except against the oppressors.
2:194 [Fighting in] the sacred month is for [aggression committed in] the sacred month, and for [all] violations is legal retribution. So whoever has assaulted you, then assault him in the same way that he has assaulted you. And fear God and know that God is with those who fear Him.
2:195 And spend in the way of God and do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands into destruction [by refraining]. And do good; indeed, God loves the doers of good.

It’s important whenever one reads a Quranic verse, to read it in its context. As you have read, critics only quote the part which suites them, they isolate previous verses and the ones after. When the passage is examined in context, it is clear that nowhere does it sanction the killing of innocent people. From verse 2:190 to 2:195, when read, Allah makes it evident to fight those only who fight them, fighting in self-defence.

Another thing some love to do with the verse is, change the Arabic word’s meaning. Example, the Arabic word ‘Fitna’ used in 2:191 and 2:193, they deceptively have translated the word as ‘disbelief’. So, when it’s read in that perspective, the passage is implying to fight to those who are disbelievers, just because of their religion. This again when we examine it, it will turn out to be a lie. The Arabic word ‘Fitnah’ means ‘persecution’, ‘corruption’, ‘sedition’. But when the word ‘Fitnah’ is used in verse 2:191 and 2:193 it means ‘persecution’.

Islam does not support killings in any form, don’t be misled by some hoodlums who took law into their hands, if we are to go by your pictorial posts then we also have some bible verses too similar to this with pictorial evidence as below.The unfortunate incident is barbaric and justice should prevail and same treatment be served to the perpetrators, it is sad and condemnable and you all should understand that Islam does not in anyway support such.

Yesterday I almost gave up on Islam.
I saw the audacity of those boys, they felt they were doing the right thing, that audacity comes with a lot of back up from stronger elites, even our former vice president had to delete his Facebook post. Maybe because he values his political ambition than justice or probably share same beliefs.
Going through some comments on Facebook, you'll be surprised that even educated Muslim who can do research on their own fall for this beliefs.
It got to a point I taught maybe Islam really permits the killing of blasphemy but the reverse is the case after my research..

But one thing Islam really forbids and condem is fornication. Islam prescribes 100strokes of cain for fornication but how often do we see news of people being flogged for fornication in those religious states?

If educated Muslims don't come out to condemn such atrocities, then hate filled religious scholars would keep deceiving ignorant fellas.

such can't happen in all northern states.
Only places like zamfara, sokoto and other highly Islamic dominated regions can such happen.
The odds were against the innocent Girl and those bloody psychos were lucky to have their way.
From my research Islamic scholars who have a different opinion might end up dead for speaking up, even strong political elites like atiku who has a different view couldn't stand by it so you could imagine the faith of the common man.

Narrated Abdullah Ibn Abbas:

A blind man had a slave-mother who used to abuse the Prophet (ﷺ) and disparage him. He forbade her but she did not stop. He rebuked her but she did not give up her habit. One night she began to slander the Prophet (ﷺ) and abuse him. So he took a dagger, placed it on her belly, pressed it, and killed her. A child who came between her legs was smeared with the blood that was there. When the morning came, the Prophet (ﷺ) was informed about it.

He assembled the people and said: I adjure by Allah the man who has done this action and I adjure him by my right to him that he should stand up. Jumping over the necks of the people and trembling the man stood up.

He sat before the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: Messenger of Allah! I am her master; she used to abuse you and disparage you. I forbade her, but she did not stop, and I rebuked her, but she did not abandon her habit. I have two sons like pearls from her, and she was my companion. Last night she began to abuse and disparage you. So I took a dagger, put it on her belly and pressed it till I killed her.

Thereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Oh be witness, no retaliation is payable for her blood.

I don’t subscribe to all these Hadith quotes, it is the origin of all these misguidance ,Allah strictly warns about associating any other book to his only book which is the Quran.Also remember that the first Hadith came about 300years after the death of the prophet and as such some of this narrations are not true.It is even hard to get the exact stories of what happened 50years ago without addition and subtraction to the stories, and not to talk about what happened 300yrs ago, let’s put our thinking cap on while practicing our religion and let us all know that there’s no intermediary between anyone and his Creator(Allah) . Go find about the true origin of hadiths and you’ll be surprised at your findings

There is nothing in the Quran or the authentic teachings of Prophet Muhammad justifying the killing of people for opposing, criticizing, humiliating or showing irreverence toward holy personages, religious artifacts, customs and beliefs of Islam.
The Quran says:
Revile not ye those whom they call upon besides Allah,
lest they out of spite revile Allah in their ignorance.
Thus We have made alluring to each people its own doings.
In the end will they return to their Lord,
and We shall then tell them the truth of all that they did. [6:108]
Also
who believe! Let not some men among you ridicule others:
It may be that the (latter) are better than the (former):
Nor let some women ridicule others: It may be that the (latter are better than the (former):
Nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames:
Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (to be used of one) after he has believed:
And those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong. [49:11]
Those who avoid the greater crimes and shameful deeds, and, when they are angry even then forgive;" [42:37]

What was written down is actually not what Mohammed himself practised.
For example, when he was chased out of Mecca, he went to Medina, grew some army he came back and fought and killed to establish his religion in Mecca.

Besides, there are some contradictions I'm the Koran.

Like in some verses, the Koran says you should show kindness to your parents no matter what even if they are disbelievers. But I'm other verses, it says you shouldn't not show kindness to them if they are disbelievers or opposing Mohammed or Islam.
Even in some Hadiths, some had to kill their father cos of Mohammed.

I think something is fundamentally wrong with Islamic teachings and practices hence the outrageous level of fundamentalism. I'm an atheist but I really do not see Christians being as fanatical as Muslims.

You guys should fix yourself else you will face serious Islamophobia from everyone. You people are very intolerant.
Oga atheist let me affirm to you that islam is a religion that will remain firm and stand the test of times irrespective of how you or others choose to view it, I as a Muslim condemn any act of violence and my religion does not support it in any way , you may choose to stick to your opinions but it is what it is.Lets learn to make people accountable for their actions and not blame or hide under some misguided religious beliefs to justify evil.Somewhere around the world mullions of Muslims are been mascared on a daily basis by Christians, does it make sense if I start to condemn Christianity in it’s entirety?Lets Learn to live in the beauty of our multiplicity and justice duly served wherever necessary.

Tell that to your clerics reading rubbish to the masses and brainwashing them. Tell that to Muslims who are hardened - and mostly don't even have a kuran. Be like say una dey ment sef.
undecided they are also here, but for someone like you who know the truth and knows the repercussions but still do the opposite SMH, you more deadly.

So it's either Islam is bad, or it attracts mainly idiots with totally empty heads.

you are right, from what I have seen thus far, the people heading us usually sit backs when this things happen, look at Atiku for example him taking down that tweet actually says alot instead of standing his ground and letting this people know what they did was horrible.
