A state-sponsored police guard caricatured the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) in a high-rise building in France. Earlier, a French newspaper had published satirical cartoons about the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him). It is very sad that the French President has given his direct support to all these heinous incidents. The French government has shown extreme foresight by publishing caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), a dearer figure than the lives of Muslims. This incident is tantamount to insulting Islam and stabbing the hearts of Muslims. This is mainly an attempt to incite religious violence and extremism worldwide. We hoped that at this time of the Corona virus epidemic, the leaders of different countries of the world would respect each other and play a responsible role in restoring peace and order. But the role of the French government has surprised and angered the world. We strongly condemn and protest against this heinous and despicable act of the French government and call on the French government to immediately stop exhibiting caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
We call on the Muslim world, the OIC and the peace-loving people of the world to speak out against this reckless decision by France to uphold the dignity of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) worldwide.
