The image is not of a Qur’an at all. “I am trying to have a word with him so that I can explain to him that it’s an English book….I am making a film on peace. If I file a police case then police will bring him in, and then why am I even making the film?”
Good point, Mr. Khan. We can only hope that you don’t end up murdered before you can drive your point home. Muslim mobs rushing to punish alleged blasphemers on the basis of mere hearsay and rumors are not unheard of.
“Gul Makai: Malala Yousafzai biopic director Amjad Khan gets fatwa from Noida-based Muslim cleric,” Indo-Asian News Service, January 29, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Director Amjad Khan’s film Gul Makai, based on Pakistani education activist and Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai, is set to release soon. The filmmaker has received a fatwa from a Noida-based Muslim cleric for disrespecting the Quran.
Khan shared that he has been getting many death threats since he started the film, and now a Noida-based cleric has an issue with his film’s poster.
“Ab fatwa lag gaya hai (now a fatwa has been issued) by a person from Noida. There is a poster that has Malala holding a book and standing next to a blast, and he thinks it is the Quran. He thinks we haven’t shown respect to the holy book. He called me a kafir,” Khan told IANS here.
“I am trying to have a word with him so that I can explain to him that it’s an English book,” Khan added.
What about a police case? “You have to report, which I have done. I would say he hasn’t been able to understand things. I am making a film on peace. If I file a police case then police will bring him in, and then why am I even making the film?” he asked….

In fact, ‘THE BLAST’ is what emerges from the pages of the Koran … 1400 years of ‘blast’, shooting, raping, pillaging, enslaving and murder.

If you show a muslim holding any book in his hand..it eventually means he’s holding a quran. They cannot think beyond that with their pea sized brains. You can blame a frog who has been in a well all his life. The well is the world for him.

Malala is what misogynistic Muslim fanatics feared the most: a PROGRESSIVE AGENDA. They knew and feared that if all Muslim girls are educated, the Muslim birth rate will drop over 80% and Muslim populations will diminish.
Furthermore, if Muslim girls are educated, they will no longer accept being controlled, dominated and repressed. Liberated Muslim women will liberate themselves from the backward Muslim culture, liberate themselves from misogynistic Islam and join the modern world.
The Muslim fanatics tried to murder Malala. That failed, so now they want to bury her memory alive.

spot on with that one!

Slay those who suggest islam is not peaceful
DHazard says
Muslims hate having their dirty laundry aired more than they hate pretending to be opposed to terrorism. Living a double life is taxing but the entire Muslim world is behind you in supporting the Islam = peace plot line. Best to avoid introspection when it’s so much easier to blame your victims, especially when the victim himself may continue to refuse to believe that what happened to them had anything to do with Islam. This is so widespread and persistent that it justifies the renaming of the logical fallacy it demonstrates (if only). “No true Muslim” is much easier to grasp than “No true Scotsman”. The deep need to distinguish oneself as religiously superior, or at least equal, to one’s fellow Muslims has led to the deaths of millions of Muslims over the years and almost no one has changed their minds about who is following the “real” Islam as a result of this carnage.

India: Director of Malala biopic gets death threats, fatwa for poster of her seeming to hold Qur’an next to a blast
The image is not of a Qur’an at all. “I am trying to have a word with him so that I can explain to him that it’s an English book….I am making a film on peace…
………………………..
Pious Muslims *hate* Malala and anyone who does not condemn her to death–it doesn’t matter whether this was intended to be a Qur’an or not.
(Never mind Malala hating Jews as much as most Muslims herself–she gave her Nobel Peace prize money to Hamas)

You may desire peace, but (unfortunately) only one side needs to declare war. Islam has never been at peace and never will be until it is defeated.
