What is blasphemy?


“Blasphemy lies in greater things. For the people to be repeatedly denied their rights in a state founded in the name of Islam is blasphemy. Hunger & deprivation are blasphemy, something which the great Caliph Omar understood when he said that even if a dog went hungry by the banks of the Euphrates the Lord of the Hosts would hold him accountable on the Day of Judgment.”


Ayaz Amir

“The greatest blasphemy of all is a child going hungry, a child condemned to the slow death of starvation. The miscarriage of justice is blasphemy. Misgovernment is blasphemy. An unconscionable gab between rich & poor is blasphemy. Denial of treatment to the sick, denial of education to the child are alike examples of blasphemy. The Prophet said cleanliness is next to godliness. What would he say about the monuments of dirt & filth raised in the Islamic Republic?”
