"It

"
It is true that muslims are so many
but also so weak, as foam on the ocean. The western are laughing looking at us,
harmless [and cowardless].
No wonder more and more
western's publication are even more bravely coming forward to insult our prophet
and religion. !!
"deepening their knowledge and love for the Prophet" itself
IS NOT ENOUGH !!
By Hasnita A. Majid, Channel NewsAsia SINGAPORE : Several Islamic organisations in Singapore have said they object to any form of violence by Muslims to the publication of caricatures and cartoons depicting Prophet Mohammed. It said Muslims should instead channel their frustrations and anger towards deepening their knowledge and love for the Prophet. They said being overly sensitive and responding irrationally would only intensify the negative image others have towards Islam. However, the publication of caricatures and cartoons by European newspapers shows a lack of sensitivity towards other cultures, particularly of Muslims. And such action demeans Islam. - CNA/de http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/192221/1/.html *************************************************************************** {Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur'an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.} (Holy Quran-16:125) {And who is better in speech than he who [says: "My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness)," and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah's (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: "I am one of the Muslims."} (Holy Quran-41:33) The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels." [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim] The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, "Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all."
