Then what are the rules about blasphemy?


I am not a scholar, and I can only speak from my limited knowledge. I apologize for any errors I make. My understanding is that you leave people to their beliefs, but that those people who do not believe in a single God or his message and messengers will be addressed/punished by God. Muslims are not supposed to "punish" them. There's a sense that there is nothing another human can do to convince someone who deliberately disbelieves.

Chapter 15 of the Quran addresses this pretty directly.


I'm sorry if I've unclear. Blasphemy usually refers to poor behavior toward God (or Jesus or the Prophet, etc.) by a believer. It's not necessarily blasphemy if a non-Muslim insults the Prophet.

I'm asking this question with respect, knowing that I know little. Are there no Mulsims or people familiar with the Quran who can answer?

(I don't know why the PP is on the religion board, and I'm agnostic!)

19:21. Your position has been noted.

I am curious about the Quran, regular Muslims, and want to know more.

I'm asking what the Quran says. Not what you think.

My understanding is that the Quran has differnt rules for Muslims and non-Muslims. I'm many religions it's not blasphemy for a non-believer to disrespect the religion.

Does the Quran require non-Muslims to not mock Mohammed or does it only prohibit Mulims?
