On behalf of ‘The New Islam Foundation Canada’ and ‘The Independent Muslim Media Network”, I urge Muslims around the world to stay calm and peaceful on this issue. And I also suggest Muslim fellows to end those taboos that Prophet Muhammad's pictures or cartoons can't be created.

We need liberation in Islam and reformation in traditional mind set of our Muslim fellows. We the Muslims can only be compatible with rest of the mankind by breaking hard lines and turning ourselves tolerant. When we talk about hurting of our belief then what was that when Prophet Muhammad challenged the faith of people of his time by saying, ‘O People what you do is wrong’. Was it not hurting to the belief of other people at that time? But The New Islam Foundation understands that Prophet Muhammad actually exercised his freedom of expression in his times and now every one has the same right for exercising one’s own freedom of expression. And also, if we stop questioning religious theologies for the sake of not hurting religious foundations, then we will go through the hell of stagnant ideologies. Moreover, the advancement in the modern philosophies and new universal sensibilities is never possible without breaking the taboos of Islamic religious foundations. That’s what other religious nations did so far, now it’s our turn to do the same. Unfortunately, our traditional Muslim mind is not ready to understand the free dimensions of modern human mind but now it’s not possible to live being isolated from understanding those free dimensions. In these difficult times ‘The New Islam Foundation Canada’ suggest the Muslim fellows to have a look on the charter of “New Islam”. In our opinion, “New Islam” is the only compatible reformation in Islam.
