WHETHER it is a freedom of speech or not, there is no room for satire in faith.
Such ridicule is not constructive but a slippery slope to decline Islam especially holds this ground while capturing people's imagination with in-depth spiritual and practical guidance coupled with simplistic and straightforward rules that appeal to followers.
It is seen as sacred and an instruction from God.
It would be understandable why a Day of Anger' was called but as it happens too often, the platform of protest is hijacked by hotheads' making inappropriate scenes and in the current political climate, protests become a stage to air messages of Islam.
It appears these individuals take satisfaction by declaring a pre-emptive moral victory for the future.
Indeed moral standards are very high in the developed world but Islam like Christianity foresees a time, arguably somewhat near, when there is to be a catastrophic culmination brought on by the actions of various powers.
The doctrine in both these major faiths lays the compulsion to believe in the second coming of Jesus, The Saviour.
The interpretation is of an age of united peace and harmony vis-a-vis his arrival.
