I didn't read the original post but killing for blasphemy goes right back to the prophet Mohammed. So, don't expect it to be outlawed by Muslim countries.

Nasr bin al-Hareth is beheaded in the presence of Mohammed and his companions.


Muhammad decided to ransom most of the prisoners but he did order the execution of two members of the Quraysh tribe: Uqba ibn Abu Mu'ayt who had years earlier dumped sheep entrails over him whilst he was praying, and Al-Nadr Bin Al-Harith a poet who had criticized him years earlier claiming that Muhammad’s Koranic verses were nothing more than well known tales from foreign lands. (Ibn Ishaq, pg. 308)
