Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam was a person of extraordinary beauty
Messengers before you were also mocked, but those who jeered were engulfed by what they mocked. (Qur'an, 6:10)
Caricatures in cartoons recently published in Denmark have caused great distress in the Muslim world. However, it is all too obvious that the figures pictured in these caricatures are the artists themselves.
A number of caricatures reflecting the dark mindsets that support violence, drawn by artists with Darwinist and materialist views, have been published by a joint decision of the British and French Masonic Lodges’ Supreme Councils.
The caricatures in question are actually a camouflage for the dark and murky worlds of certain atheists, representing only a visible part of the dark, wide-ranging moves that Global Freemasonry has initiated against Muslims. People need to know that the most effective—and permanent—solution to such attacks is a joint struggle against Darwinism and materialism.
Our Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam possessed such superior moral values, and communicated the message of Islam—a religion of peace, love and brotherhood—that it is impossible to equate him with caricatures of this kind. Like the other messengers sent by God—such as Prophets Abraham, alaihissalam Moses and Jesus (peace be upon them all)—our Prophet (allallhu alaihu wasallam) was a superior, benign and exceptionally beautiful individual.
All Muslims are aware of this fact and all publications of this kind are totally in vain. Clearly, atheistic materialism can never overcome Islam by such cheap means.
The consequences of daring to mock the prophets are revealed thus in the Qur'an:
Messengers before you were also mocked, but those who jeered were engulfed by what they mocked. (Qur'an, 6:10)
