HOW TO REACT TO CARTOONS OF THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﷺ

Assalamu Alikum

My dearest Readers,

This article of mine will tell you how we should react on the cartoonists who published a picture saying it is the picture of our respected  Prophet ﷺ who guided us from darkness of this worldly desire toward a brightness of this life to attain Jannah.The publishing of cartoons will hurt the sentiments of 1.8 billion Muslims around the world, as well as millions of non-Muslims who respect the great personality of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).For every Muslim, love of the Prophet ﷺ is a necessary part of his/her faith. He is dearer to us than our mothers, fathers, sons & daughters. We prefer him to more than our own self.

As reveled by our beloved prophetﷺ as a Muslim we face much trials and tributes in this world.
 The first of these narrations is that of Thawban - radiallahu 'anhu He related that the Messenger of Allahﷺ said: "The nations are about to call each other and set upon you, just as diners set upon food." It was said: "Will it be because of our small number that day?" He said: "Rather, on that day you will be many, but you will be like foam, like the foam on the river. And Allah will remove the fear of you from the hearts of your enemies and will throw wahn (weakness) into your hearts."Someone said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is wahn?" He said: "Love of the world and the hatred for death."

And today most of us except one who are guided has more love toward dunya and are negligence about akhira and are particularly not bothered about others and happy about his or her peaceful life.And today we see that happens to all Muslims around us and still some of us does not even care to pray for them at least.May Allah guide all of us.

Recently a cartoonist from France magazine named Charlie Hebdo has been accused for drawing a cartoon picture and saying it as the picture  of our beloved Muhammadﷺ so till today more than 50 Islamophobic attack has been recorded. May Allah protect all the Muslims who suffer around the word because of their faith InshaAllah.

How should one react on this issue?

Be patience
As it is clear that the cartoons are to be published again, but our reaction must be a reflection of the teachings of the one we love ﷺ. Enduring patience, tolerance, gentleness and mercy as was the character of our beloved Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is the best and immediate way to respond. With dignified nobility we must be restrained, as the Qur’an says:

“And when the ignorant speak with them, they say peace.” 25:63

Elevated your remembrance
As Muslims have to remember that by depicting the Prophet ﷺ, no one can ever tarnish his image and his personality, as he is way beyond what is depicted.So we should spend much of our time on prayers, sending salawaat and blessings to his beloved personality. May Allah’s mercy, peace & blessing be upon his soul.

Speak of your love for the Prophet ﷺ
Speak of your love for the Prophet ﷺ and do not be shy to let your non-Muslims friends know your justified anger at the mockery that is made of our faith. People need to know how much we love our Prophet ﷺ.Learn more & share more about the great Prophet Muhammed ﷺ.
