Okay.
So if some one 'Makes fun of' the belief system ( "How many Islamists does it take to change a light bulb?" )
You are happy to walk away? Cool.
What if some one is insulting towards your belief system, or calls aspects of its nature into question. ( "How many babies did Allah drown in the global flood?" )
What is your take on things, then?
Not at work.
Yes I'll just walk away and let them insult the faith; God has spoken and gave his command already in Sura 4, verse 140.
As for the "flood"; God is a creator of everything; so don't do "Anthropomorphism" with him or else you'll get everything wrong and you won't understand what he is.
God is not "human", he is not a "humanoid". You can't get angry with "the sun" for giving a child "a sun burn"; you can't get angry with "water" for drowning an infant. You just accept it, because no matter what you do these forces exist before you, they are stronger than you, they are your universe itself.
Allah is the creator of these forces. If the sun and water are so strong; what about their creator?
He described himself in the Quran here:
Quote:Sura 6, The Quran:
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh
( 102 ) That is Allah, your Lord; there is no deity except Him, the Creator of all things, so worship Him. And He is Disposer of all things.
( 103 ) Vision perceives Him not, but He perceives [all] vision; and He is the Subtle, the Acquainted.

How punishing independent producers who are not the french state could do anything but cause further misery, likewise, unconsidered.
The scene so far.
Islamists blow shit up and kill people.
Governments reject islamism.
Good Muslims insist that economic damage be done to the people who live under governments who reject islamism.
-and repeat
The problem is that France is something; while Macron is something else.
Did you see the amount of French people who have positive views of Muslims??
https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2019/...ty-groups/
Quote:Solid majorities of people in the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, Germany and Sweden have positive opinions of Muslims in their country. And attitudes toward Bulgarian Muslims, who constitute around 12% to 14% of the country’s population, are also favorable. (In Bulgaria, the question specifically asked about “Bulgarian Muslims.”)
I understand your point though: you are saying that " Islamic extremism" is the problem; I agree but it's not the bigger problem, there are far worse problems and maybe the first is new wing forming that includes Rightists and populous extremism.
The boycotting is for Muslims who are capable to do it -like non-French Muslims-, but any Muslim going stabbing and blowing and killing just went against their own Quran and their own religion, they should be treated as any criminal.
I never patted Islamist extremists.

The verse from the Quran is:
Terrorism and killing are not how a Muslim deals with others making fun of their faith; but simply they boycott their products and ignore them -leave them and go sit elsewhere-. Boycotting is a freedom of expression too; Macron
Huge difference between boycotting, and terrorism.
Muslims in America most certainly have the right to peacefully protest non violently over any issue they want. But in America they DO NOT have the right to murder anyone over blasphemy.
And just like with right wing Christians when they threaten people that God will send them to hell, my argument is the same as it is with you. "Why are you trying to do your god's work for him?" He cant be "all powerful" if he needs the help of mortal humans. Are you arguing he cant do work by himself?
He is powerful, but it's all about us Muslims.
If we didn't boycott those who insult us, they will escalate their insults to turn it into physical harm, then it will turn into direct oppression.
Remember what I always advocated in here: Islam saying it is an "eye for an eye".
The cartoons don't kill. So Muslims also should not kill.
Which tells you a lot about the crazies that carry knives and assault people in the streets: they are lost terrorists that need to be punished.
And the cartoonists? well we'll boycott these childish provoking attempts. Our religion says that.
Macron defended their childish act? we'll boycott his ass too.
