: I don't think that it is true that depictions of Mohammed are prohibited, or that anyone is offended by such depictions. The prohibition is against worshiping the images. If you don't want to worship the images, then don't. [[User:RSchlafly|RSchlafly]] 17:38, 14 May 2009 (EDT)

You are incorrect on both matters RSchafly. Such images are prohibit because they are capable of being worshipped. It is why not even Shia Muslim people will permit such images of major prophets. Your train of though is correct but your difference of perspective have apparently led you to the incorrect conclusion. I find the image of the Prophet on the webpage here highly offensive. Many of the other people who had the strong reactions that are noted in this article itself were offended and even broke the law. I do not know why you think you are better able to judge whether people have been offended by images of the single most important Prophet in Islam, versus whether in your individual opinion as but one man you think they should be. There has been so much written about this subject in the press throughout the world. Rafi
