Libya Scholars Association Denounces Blasphemy Against the Prophet 'PBUH'.
Pulbished on:
Tripoli, 19 January 2015(Lana) The Libya Ulema 'scholars'
association has denounced the western newspapers which published
cartoons insulting the Prophet Mohamed 'PBUH', saying they offended
more than one billion Muslims worldwide.
In a statement, the association said 'free speech used by some as
an excuse to insult Muslims and their sanctities is void and
unacceptable.'
It appealed to international rightist organisations to press
governments, to enact laws criminalizing prejudice and satire against
Islamic sanctities.
It urged Muslim rulers to take a clear and unequivocal stance
against insults of the Prophet to ensure that they are not repeated.
