Salman Rushdie, Satanic Verses....

[naseeha]

i read a little part of this book... what rushdie did was that he put forward a story about a man named "muhammad" and gabriel..

the story is aimed to mock the prophet of allah (salallahu alaihi wa sallam). all characters are those that surrounded the prophet (salallahu alaihi wa sallam). I think rushdie meant to put forward the book in a way to seem as though he made it up. but he also tried his best to slander the rasuul..

i would not mention the really stupid things that he said in his book because it would just make things bad... but after reading what how he slandered our prophet (salallahu alaihi wa sallam) and his wives (especially aisha)one would really want him to pay for his deeds...

but remember

"allah is swift in calling to account"(surah ibrahim)

allah will deal with him justly...

I fully agree with your stance Phatmonkey

Thanks for all the answers - I do not think I will spend my time reading this book. It seems the author was simply going for the shock factor so that controversy would sell the book.

the book is not worth your time!!!
