teddy gate 2 User ID: 310071 United States 12/04/2007 08:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In Fear of "Teddy Gate" ~ UK authors change characters names. As someone stated before: Ever since this issue about the teddy bear named Muhammad has surfaced... There are two issues that need to be addressed. The first is the question of whether or not the person incurs sin. The second is the appropriateness of the action itself.
With respect to the sinfulness of the act, the first thing to consider is who the person is who named the animal character with the name of one of the prophets (peace be upon them all). If the person who did so was a small child, then there is certainly no sin involved, since a small child is not legally accountable.
If the person is an adult, then the question of sinfulness rests with the person's intention. If the person intended by giving the character or toy a certain name as a means to insult or belittle one of the prophets, then the person has committed a sin. Deliberately insulting any of the prophets is a serious sin. It does not matter which of the prophets it is, since we as Muslims do not differentiate between the prophets in their right to be accorded our respect.
If the person did not intend any insult by doing so, then the person incurs no sin.[/u
Even though her intention was not to insult, they still applied punishment.
WHY?
Quoting: intent 264154 Thread: Teddy Bear Gate...proof Islam is only after the west! Now its gone even crazier... Wary of Mohammed teddy row, UK author changes characters [ link to timesofindia.indiatimes.com] The overwhelming British Muslim plea for Gibbons to have been spared by the Sudanese judges came as 10,000 teddies, named Adam the Muslim Prayer Bear, were reportedly bought by Muslim families in Britain to raise money for Sudanese refugees. Adam bear's name is that of another prophet of Islam and at £ 15 a piece, he recites Assalam-o-alaikum when his paws are pressed. The bears, marketed by the Islamic Society of Britain, to raise funds for charity, have not sparked unease or complaints in the three years they have been sold. Run Run Run scared and maybe the Muslims will let us live... |

Adam is a name that belongs in Genesis! That is Jew and Christian territory. How dare a prophet of Islam be called that?!?
Its Identity Theft!
Adam was there long before teddy Voldemort (the bear who will not be named) ... and anyone from Sudan using the name of Paddington, should be made to crawl naked over broken glass up Oxford Street all the way to Hamleys.
We're getting all upset about a fuckn teddy bear people! Get a grip. Its not important. If they'd flogged that women within an inch of her life, we'd all be more awake than we are now slumped in our seats in relief.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 264154Well clearly they understand the blame game means that the buck never has to stop anywhere and when it does the poor bastard sitting with it, has to truly SIT with it. If you tried hard enough you could make this Australia's fault. What I don't understand is VOLDEMORT is the most common muslim name and isn't that punishable in itself? If you name your kid VOLDEMORT and they commit crimes ... isn't THAT an isult to the prophet Voldemort? |
