Hi, to begin with, Salman taseer did not commit a blasphemy. He pointed out the fact that blasphemy law is being widely misused in the society where 96% population is Mulism. And with extremists like our mullahs, no one can dare commit blasphemy. Hence the law should be re-considered and abolished, because it doesn't link up with islam as islam protects the rights of minorities(as per his interpretation). Thats what he said, sitting with aasia bibi.
How is that a blasphemy? Do you understand what the blasphemy really is? Does your definition of blasphemy simply can tag anyone with reservations over a law that even Quran has not revealed directly, as blasphemers? Does it give open hand to anyone to tag anyone as per his limited understanding as blasphemer, to KILL anyone without any trial? should there be no one to actually look up into matter and see whether the blasphemy was indeed commited or not? Just go and kill?
Heck even in islam, if someone commits blasphemy, One on his own can not be the judge, and executioner. He talked of abolishing the law, Well Sunni tehreek could take it to federal shariah court to ensure that it stays there. WHAT DOES JUSTIFY THE KILLING OF TASEER? Someone who did not even commit the blasphemy in the first place?
Oh really? if he was a blasphemer because he NEGATED the message of prophet, Then each and every one of us is blasphemer. We commit certain sins despite knowning how striclty prophet prohibited. Yet we commit. Aren't we again negating the prophet's message, despite full knowledge, deliberately? Does that make all of Blasphemers and hence wajib-ul-qatal?
Were these goons so sure of his intent that, He meant to DISRESPECT prophet.
About the hadith you have quoted, Why don't you quote the abdullah bin ubi who used talk of ills of prophet yet was not awarded any punishment by the prophet? Why don't you talk of those whom prophet forgave. even if they had pained prophet mentally and physically?
This law is controversial in the first place, secondly the definition of blasphemy does not fit with taseer's case. Thirdly no one has the right to go and kill anyone he thinks is a blasphemer. Just because he thinks he is.
