French magazine publishes Prophet cartoons (Naozobillah)

French Mag to Publish Cartoons of Prophet Mohammed

By Jean-Nicholas Fievet | ABC News 7 hrs ago

A French satirical magazine is set to publish several cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed on Wednesday, a move that is likely to inflame the Islamic faithful and militants who have already rioted in more than 20 countries over a movie mocking the prophet.
Depictions of the prophet are strictly prohibited and considered blasphemous by Muslims. Cartoons of Muhammad published in Denmark in 2005 and then reproduced in newspapers across Europe triggered riots throughout the Mideast and Africa. Churches and embassies were torched and at least 100 people died in the outbreaks and police crackdowns.
The magazine "Charlie Hebdo" has confirmed that it will publish the cartoons, but has not revealed what they will depict. French newspaper "Le Monde" reports that some of the cartoons show the prophet in "particularly explicit poses," without providing any further detail.
The move comes as Muslims are still simmering after riots in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia and nearly 20 other countries over the move "Innocence of Muslims." U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans died during an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
French government ministers have criticized the magazine's decision and police in Paris have stepped up security around its offices.
France is home to Europe's largest Muslim population, and the senior cleric at Paris' biggest mosque has appealed for followers to remain calm, according to the French news agency AFP.
The magazine has defended the move by invoking the right to free speech. Speaking on French radio, the magazine's director explained that a decision not to publish would "hand victory to a handful of extremists that are causing a commotion in the world and in France."
It's not the first time the anti-establishment, left-wing magazine has courted controversy. In 2011 the offices of "Charlie Hedbo" were bombed after it published an Arab Spring edition with the Prophet Muhammad as "guest editor" on the cover.

Charlie Hebdo, Satirical Weekly, Publishes Cartoons Of The Prophet Mohammad

PARIS, Sept 19 (Reuters) - French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo published cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad on Wednesday, a move criticised by the French authorities which sent riot police to protect the magazine's offices.

Issues of the magazine hit newsstands with a front cover showing an Orthodox Jew pushing a turbaned figure in a wheelchair with several caricatures of the Prophet on its inside pages, including some of him naked.

The front page cartoon had the wheelchair-bound figure saying "You mustn't mock" under the headline "Untouchable 2", a reference to a hugely popular French movie about a paralysed rich white man and his black assistant.

The publication came amid widespread outrage over a short film, made with private funds in the United States, that mocks the Prophet and has ignited days of sometimes deadly protests in the Arab world, Africa, Asia and some Western countries.

French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius criticised the move as a provocation and said he had ordered security beefed up at French diplomatic offices in the Muslim world.

Charlie Hebdo's Paris offices were fire bombed last November after it published a mocking caricature of Mohammad. In 2005, Danish cartoons of the Prophet sparked a wave of violent protests across the Muslim world that killed at least 50 people.

Many Muslims consider any representation of Allah or the Prophet Mohammad offensive.

"Is it relevant and intelligent in this environment to add fuel to the fire? The answer is no," Fabius told France Info radio. "I'm very worried... and when I saw this I immediately issued instructions for special security precautions to be taken in all the countries where it could be a problem."

What a shame it is that there are still people who feel that anything is justified provoking the sentiments of the Muslims by insulting the Prophet(saw). Perhaps the Publisher in West has declare open season on Muslim and started issuing defaming licenses! I hope that the Muslims in France can sue the publisher and make them pay for this.

Re: French magazine publishes Prophet cartoons (Naozobillah)

Who cares?

What people do around the world makes no difference to Islam or prophet. If we start protesting on each and every abuse then everyday will be a protest day. I think government announce whole year holiday so our people can protest and destroy everything.

Request from AFGHAN TALIBAN. Please take actions against FRENCH ARMY in Afghan as France published Blasphemy Cartoons.

Afghan Talibs are here by requested by Muslim nations across the globe to take tough actions against [HI]French Combat Bases [/HI]in Afghan as they took tough action against AMRIKA by destroying there BASE in retaliation of Blasphemy Movie MADE IN USA.

You (Talibs) might question our (Pakistan) love of Prophet Mohammad pbuh and might suggest to take action in a peaceful manner.
So answer is we(Pakistan) will mostly say one or two words and then will become busy in our daily lives, then will wait for another act of west.

We are happy with NUKES we have but one doubt that what is the use of these NUKES when ENEMY is totally demolishing Pakistan and trying to Destroy Islam every day. What Pakistan and its public and its NUKES are doing. Nothing. Just trying to close there eyes and ears as nothing has happened.

US insulted Prophet Mohammad pbuh and we saw protest of handful of men/women. Arab world was surprised that FORTRESS OF ISLAM is in real made of beach SAND only.

France insulted Prophet Mohammad pbuh and we saw nothing and will see nothing also in future. Instead we will see people who will try to avoid even peaceful protest and will try to confuse the ordinary Muslim of Pakistan that you must think of a COW or SHEEP which came from AUSTRALIA, they got virus and ISLAM leave it. Its not your business. PAKISTAN NA ISLAM KA THAKA NAHI LIYA HOWA................HAN WEST KE GHULAMI KA THAKA ZAROOR LIYA HOWA HA so be slave to WEST not try to become SLAVE to ISLAM. (referred to Media/liberal/secular US paid men/women)

Sorry to say, we Muslims are really now a peace of wood sticks which are floating, where water wants to take it we go, because in our hearts Islam has no space instead we got love for dunya and hate for DEATH.
