Quote:drawing the prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) can be for two purposes one is to insult him and the other is it admire him
but the both reasons are haram (forbidden) in Islam
firstly admiration reason:
most of Arabs before Islam and even non Arabs were used to be pagans who made idols for great people then started to worship them ,so drawing people and making statues was forbidden to avoid reverting to be pagans again
in Islam prophet Mohammad is no more than a great man so it is forbidden to worship him
What is the ruling on drawing in Islam?.

secondly the insulting reason:
as that prophet Mohammad is the dearest man for Muslims ,it is so hurtful for Muslims to see pictures about him are made to make fun on him
uncaring about feeling of 2 billions of Muslim people can`t be called free of speech but racism

the biggest part of the problem that those who draw pictures of the prophet didn't releaise that muslims never draw pictures of other`s abrahamic religions as it is haram and never they use that as a revinge ,i can`t understand why don`t non muslims learn to be the same tolerant? may be it is not a part of thier religions

i didn't read this, i just took it from yahoo answers

naw jk.
In every religion wee had two different types of followers. The fundamentalist and the moderates. Fundamentalist usually take the bible word for word and are very strict when it comes to religion practices like praying and visiting the church. Moderates see the bible as a tool to get closer to God and not as a law book. Yes the bible is important but it all depends on the people reading it on how things viewed. Mohammad if an important symbol to muslims like Jesus is to protestants christians and how the virgin mary is to catholics. Yes some of em do get depicted in drawings or statues (Like Jesus Bro up there) but i guess muslims would kill you if you made a Mohammad bro.
