A New Offense to Prophet (pbuh): Spanish Magazine Publishes Provocative Cartoon

Local Editor

In a new insult to our holy prophet Mohammad (pbuh), a Spanish magazine published a cartoon of the messenger on its cover. Political satire magazine, El Jueves’s edition, which hit Spanish newsstands on Wednesday, shows several Muslims in a police lineup under the title "But...does anyone know what Mohammad looks like?" In comments to the Huffington Post, editor Mayte Quilez said it was a decision to take a “humorous position on a contentious issue.” "If you can't depict Mohammad, how do you know it is him in the cartoons?" the editor asked provocatively. Last week, French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo published cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad soon after protests against an offensive film made in the United. The Spanish Embassy on Wednesday sent a message to its citizens in Egypt asking for caution in the event of any backlash from the El Jueves cartoon but has not said whether it will step up security in other Arab countries. "We're still analysing what steps to take," a foreign ministry source said.
