Bismillah
I m not surprised as the western media is taking this position, what is new?? How can someone take the Sheikh's explanation about the Islamic ruling against rodents and how we should handle it and turn it into a source of mocking like he is an insane person painting the image of Muslim scholars as such. But yet again, this is exactly again and again what the Quran say. We must realise this fact.
Allah Say:
"You shall certainly be tried and tested in your wealth and properties and in your personal selves, <b>and you shall certainly hear much that will grieve you from those who received the Scripture before you (Jews and Christians) and from those who ascribe partners to Allah, but if you persevere patiently, and become pious then verily, that will be a determining factor in all affairs</b>, and that is from the great matters, [which you must hold on with all your efforts]." (Quran 3: 186)
Truth Sayer is Allah The Glorious..
Thus, if they continue mocking symbols of Islam, this is only normal and expected otherwise, they will have an allegation saying O your Quran say this about us but we didnt. Note that Allah Is The Accurate. Allah Say from those who received scripture and non believers, the preposition used in Arabic is Min, which serves a double purpose here which is from and also serves to coin that not from all of them but some of them. Certainly among them, there is a party that fully realises the misleading media approaches. Me personally I met qutie a few of them. The bottom line is that even this is in the interest of Islam, a clear proof that Quran is from Allah. Let them mock and Alhamdulelah we are Muslims.
