Something odd is going on in Pakistan. A couple of days ago we started receiving messages from people asking us to boycott facebook because a community has been founded to instigate people to draw caricatures of the Prophet of Islam. While I do not endorse any act insensitive to any faith, less so my own, I did not respond to the call because such boycotts actually make a martyr out of those who take pleasure in spreading hatred and are akin to shutting your eyes to reality. Yet last night Pakistan’s Telecommunication Authority decided to ban the above mentioned community. In my facebook status I expressed fear that such a ban would result in the blockade of facebook in Pakistan. The zealots however were not satisfied even then.
Today, Lahore High Court was approached by such a group and requested to ban the social networking site in Pakistan. And astoundingly the court decided to ban the site until 31st May. What is more the court ordered to punish anyone found guilty of using facebook in Pakistan. This is simply amazing.
But the story does not end here. A few days back the very court decided to quash Interior Minister Rehman Malik’s bail and renewed an inferior court’s punishment against him. I am not concerned about that decision. However when the decision was made, many present in the court chanted slogans: Khawaja Sharif Zindabad (Long live LHC Chief Justice K Sharif) and Taliban Zindabad. The court however has not taken any further step on the incident.
On a separate note Hamid Mir, the well known talk show host, and the man this website continuously defended against Pervez Musharraf’s ban has sent a libel notice to Daily Times, asking for damages worth 250 million. The crime of newspaper, to publish the transcript of an audio clip, in which Mir is allegedly instigating a representative of the Taliban against the then abducted and later assassinated Intelligence Operative and Taliban Apologist Khalid Khawaja.
The reason why I am alarmed about the said notice is that somehow it is claimed that the apex courts of the country have developed a soft sport for Mr Mir and his allies in his media group. For instance while the government authorities are hounding all channels for sales tax much lesser than that of Hamid Mir’s group, his group has conveniently taken a stay order from a court. Hence Mr Mir’s notice seems a serious threat. I can only urge the apex courts of the country to shun any such impression and show their objectivity. Currently it seems that the Taliban are all set to stage a coup through the courts we too fought hard to defend. And facebook’s ban is regrettable because it will further ostracize our nation in front of the world community. And I fail to understand where is the democratic government when it comes to defending our rights. Maybe it is too busy pardoning its own friends to come to our defense.

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a Trackbackyeah facebook should remove contents against islam (i have seen many) or Muslims (not only in Pakistan) should ban facebook for ever.
thnx
yes sheraz is right
Sir, dont you think banning facebook is the right decision at this time? Because if people see the depictions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) on facebook, they’ll be outraged, just like it happened a few years ago and there were riots.
Believe me, we though addicted to facebook are not going to die without it. China and Vietnam already have bans on it, and i believe their decision is right due to some good reasons.
It’s called freedom of speech, a mainstay of the Western world.
If Muslims choose to self-censor their own people on account of a lack of maturity, then so be it. I, as well as many others, will not bow to the demands of persons from other lands threatened by Western freedoms.
yeah ban facebook…infact y dont ban internet….or y dont u just ban everything wid technology written anywhere over it…lets go to caves n live a life in our own utopia where there is no america,no facebook,no anti-islamic organization…blah blah blah…
infact i dont understand something…y does pakistan has to be the fronthand in everything when it comes to religon…no other islamic country has banned facebook…all other islamic countries have acknowledged except pakistan…
that is a good thing…BUT…only that illusion of well being lasts only till u ask some muslim from some other country abt his views of pakistan and than u`d know what i wanna say!
and btw…if possible go and watch “arrivals” on youtube…u`d know how awesome we muslims are…we can screw up the whole world including christian and jews and expect us to b respected…oh for God sake…grow up!
I gree with Kamal. People of Pakistan wake up. Why pakistan has taken such a step, why not other muslim countries? Ther is more to see then they want us to see.
I believe all this scam is played over our beloved prophet name (peace be upon him). They just don’t want Musharraf to succeed in his democratic campaign. His pouplarity is growing day by day on Facebook
I agree with you totally. How can Pakistanis or muslims for that matter defend themselves or even object to such pages when you are ostracising yourself from the forum altogether. It is actually helping your enemies or those who want to put forward their image of islam and muslims as you will have no way of putting forward your point of view. I can’t believe that we can be so short sighted. By covering our eyes and not coherently and logically defending our position, maybe objecting on the said page in such a majority that the power in numbers will show the group that there are so many people who disagree with their futile attempts would put forward out strength more then just running away and leaving the forum open for others to project muslims as they please. I think we should stand up against this sort of ban.
Of course, it’s a good step.. no one is going to die without facebook.. facebook authorities, despite the fact that they know every thing about anti-Islam groups, are not willing to remove them.. And it’s just the need of hour to ban this website for good.. yeah!
@saddened: dear, we’re not running.. This type of ban is not for these Islam-haters, It’s for facebook authorities.. Pakistani muslims contribute to their income to a great extent, and if it gets banned in Pakistan, it will be a shock for their financial affairs, and of course, they’ll take this matter seriously..
there will be no shock for anyone’s finances. As usual we are making a prat of ourselves. Before 9/11 there was no notion of banning Hijab in France or banning minarrets in Switzerland. It is our stupidity that makes a martyr out of those who want to create clash between cultures. Each time we try to ban something, the banned people become martyrs and more authorities support them. It is a lose lose situation. The best way is to ignore those inciting hatred and the hatred will eventually die.
And it seems the authorities are relenting.
This is preposterous! Have any of you ever heard of freedom of speech? If you disagree with the anti-islamic pages then why don’t you just not go to them. Ignore them and live your lives.
If you think that banning Pakistani’s from using facebook is going to be a loss for facebook, you’re wrong. It’s a free service, and they receive their income through the ad’s in the sidebar - so trust me, it’s no loss.
I don’t agree with the anti-islamic pages either, but unlike you drama queens, I just chose to ignore it and live my own life. Unfortunately, thanks to you people, the entire website is getting banned. I’m shocked that our dumbass government would take such an extreme step, and I’m shocked that you “muslims” are so quick to play the martyr role.
What an absolutely stupid idea! Why should people who object to seeing the prophet drawn have to go to that site? They can stay away. If you think it’s a bad idea, don’t go there and don’t send links to it. But why ban facebook? It’s a social networking site. People link to each other with it. Grandparents see grandchildren from across the world on it. There are small business ventures that start with people meeting on facebook. This is pure shit and will do nothing for us or anyone else. It’ll help all those people that you think are ‘winning’ by your not being on a major social platform …
Ameeratorn and zakintosh, I agree. However the ban is still intact and we all are failing to access facebook.
What do you guys say to starting a petition to keep facebook open? We could get enough signatures and send it to the Lahore High Court
Perfect idea. Even though I can hardly imagine Khawaja Sharif relenting, I think we should do all it takes to confront censorship.
its good they banned facebook , but unfortunately some of its links are still working and i was able to connect and i have made a complaint against it to pta.
Wow with friends like you who needs an enemy. Why not ban breathing because some “blasphemer” might be breathing in the same air.
no no noooo baby,
listen…
islam is our religion and we love islam and so PROPHET MOHAMMAD (saw). so we should sacrifice each and every thing for the sake of islam.
facebook is nothing but a waste of time its just disgusting noW….i must sayy..
this is not called the freedom in real sence…..
i think this decision is very right and pray that i’ll last for ever in our beloved country.
that called a true ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF PAKISTAN’S decision!!!
i do hav fb acc but i have deactivated it…
try it and u’ll feel good and inshallaah Allah almighty will give bless u billion times.
Then invite Taliban to form a government and burn us all. How dare you suggest that anyone talking against this ban is in any way less religious or loyal to the faith then you are.
Ameeratron you said they will not lose revenue but think again , china , vietnam , uae and iran banned facebook uptill now
@Sameen.
Listen up, EVERY website has un-islamic content. Does that mean you have to ban the entire internet? If you’re so pious why don’t you go live in a cave somewhere? The rest of us want to get with the times. I saw the link, I ignored it. Why? Because I believe in freedom of speech. They have a right to say what they want. If you disagree, then this country is more screwed than I thought. And you failed to mention all the hate groups made by muslims. “Fuck Israel”, “Fuck America” and dozens more. That’s also free speech (but it seems to be the only type you acknowledge)
@Sikandar
So? Facebook is still thriving. What’s your point?
This pisses me off because now I have to find another website with which to connect with friends, and none of the other social networking sites can hold a candle to facebook.
@ FARRUKH KHAN ! why you need to make a petition against this ban ?
@ sameen ! i agree with you. you have made a good point.
Because the ban is wrong. I cannot help if you cannot understand my simple logic.
Also, facebook isn’t banned in the UAE. Get your facts straight.
face book should ban forever…
^^ in uae facebook was banned a long time ago and many of people there are just bypassing it. you just have to know which links are working as i was able to connect facebook here and reported that link so it should also be removed and searching to more to report them .
Its just a silly idea of silly minds to ban some website, you guys are talking aboutlove of Prophet Muhaamad(pbuh) and so so much intolarenace in the name of religion, I can never understand this mania in Pakistan. Islamic republic of Pakistan, thats another good joke.Well!!! if you want to improve the image of Islam act better as Muslims bannin some website does not do any good my dear friends…and For God sake grow up!!!!!!!!!!!
face book should ban forever…
Sikandar I think you and likeminded people should be banned from here.
Jesus, if you guys hate facebook so much why not just not use it?
People like me enjoy using facebook, and thanks to you I can’t use it anymore. What happened to democracy, and the principles upon which this country was built. Jinnah wanted a secular country, where laws wouldn’t be based on religion. Oh yeah, and he believed in FREE SPEECH. Morons.
Lets get one thing straight
Whether its some website or country. Whoever utters blasphemies against our beloved Prophet MUHAMMAD (PBUH) sholud be banned and shunned. Its individual resposibility of every muslim. We should not look at other muslim countries that are not banning facebook and suggest that there are conspiracies behind all this fuss. Its our individual resposibility to refrain from using any source which supports such blasphemous acts. Dont rationalize such outrageous steps. Stop being so dead at heart. Please show some responsibilty towards your faith.
May ALLAH help us all
And a ban will stop all potential blasphemers from doing what they want? No. Why are we so stupid that we cannot control ourselves from visiting such pages if we really hate them? Why can’t a bigger community be made on the internet in support of Islam instead of blocking others. Why can’t you fight for reason?
“Its our individual resposibility to refrain from using any source which supports such blasphemous acts.”
Two things.
First of all, if it is our individual responsibility, then why is it being banned for the entire country? Why shouldn’t individuals just not log on?
Secondly, facebook doesn’t support blasphemy. It supports free speech. People like you will never understand that.
This is stupidity, and stuff like this is why Pakistan is never going to progress. Instead of worrying about the water crisis, the sugar crisis, the energy crisis, the terrorism, the poverty, the illegal immigrants, ecetera, our government chooses to focus on “anti-islamic” content. Preposterous.
Stop bringing religion into everything. Like I said, if you’re so pious, go live in a cave, because EVERY website has un-islamic content.
no!!!!! wtf facebook is not going to be banned in Pakistan!!!!!
what they want i cann’t anderstand that stupid man/men!!
they want take the liberty???..
my friends, stop being a puppet of this government!
What about our social development?
Let’s say we all “No”
Friends, not be primitive!!!!!!!!
let’s say “NO”
Let’s say no to the nonsense of the government!
lol! now join F*ckbook
But I don’t want myself to be banned. WHo gives you right to ban me?
OMG….
@ Farukh there is no point here talking abt loyality in faith … \ we shud tell those fb authorities that we are taking evry thing in account
@ all … these actions are not new they have been doing this for several years because they want to know how we muslims wud react to all their hatred actions … I think we all shud stand against it … and support this ban…
we shud also ban all products from non-muslim countries.. use ur own products … it will be a slap on the hatred’s faces… it is so simple …
If any other muslim country has not taken any action thn your ALLAH will not ask u on the Day thatif somone didnt take action thn u shud not also do any thing … HE will ask u y u didnt take any action… we are accountable for our own acts … wake up now …. come out of your own lives …. look around you how our ppl dying .. wht r they doing against islam against muslims … how their behaviors are disturbing you … if they aren’t disturbing u thn I cant help you …
Sorry? What has FB done? FB didn’t create this page. Any zealot can do it. Why ban the site rather than reporting the page?
Sigh. I’m really disappointed in this country, that’s all I can say.
For those who are defending the freedom of speech… well freedom of speech is a right to express one’s opinions and thoughts..but it hardly means that it gives anyone right to be abusive to other’s religion, cast or sex..thats when it becomes a hate speech…kinda similar to racism or sexism…
And facebook is banned in other countries…like China and Iran…and i think it is our right to stand against what offends us…
@ farrukh
we didnot ban it ourselves…the govt. did.all we are saying is that if they have done it, some of us have no problems wd it.and i think about million ppl reported the page.but the facebook authorities who are generally v quick in these things didnt take any action….all i’m saying is ,FB claims to condemn “racist/hate speech” and its not living up to its claim.
@ameeratron
about the “country” u r talking about, i’m sure u dont know half of it.so plz keep the country and other people out of this discussion.
Speak for youself. I do not think facebook in itself offends me. You cannot take my right from me. Unless you want to live in a world devoid of freedom.
And I think I have explained my point of view enough. Dont have all day to keep fighting. Those who supported me, thank you. Those who are for ban, on your necks be it.
Pakis need to go back to caves…ah well they already are and the ones that got away plan to bomb the countries that give them the freedom to express…F*(k this state or even better nuke them….ah sory they’ll nuke themselves..Dumba$$es
This is just plain stupidity. First of all, our “heroes” from the media “publicized” this link informing us all that it existed. Then I kept receiving cause notices saying “We are against the. . . .”, now take a look at this, whenever we join a cause, what they basically do is put the words “we are against. . . .” and repeat that entire extremely insulting and disrespecting phrase or sentence. We join it and do the damage ourselves. After we join it, our friends are notified of our activity of joining the said cause and in that way the insult keeps pouring in. Those calling themselves muslims should never join these causes in the first place, because they’re created by either a dumb mulla or by the very people who created those insulting pages. If a few people decide to make a website tomorrow insulting our religion, would our government impose a ban on the internet? If it hurt them so much “visiting” such pages, then simply ban the URL and move on. The is plain absurdity. If brothels exist in America and other people, will our leaders please stop visiting those countries as well. What are you going to do in such a case, avoid that place or keep going to that place and complain everytime you visit a brothel?
I can’t argue anymore. Whatever. If you’re happy with the ban, stay happy. I just hope I can leave this repressive country as soon as possible. Have a nice life, everyone.
Banning facebook won’t stop Draw Muhammad (P.B.U.H) day…. Facebook wouldn’t care if two million people stop using facebook They have 15 billion users…. In my opinion the ban should be removed! I know that we should fight for our religion but banning facebook won’t prove anything ….. But people won’t die without facebook…. What about people who have family members around the world ? They can’t socialize can they ? Your keeping parents away from their children living abroad! Remove the ban !
we have reported that page bt fb admins are not taking any actions … not for just this page .. other pages also … we are continously reporting 4 it 4 so long …. bt no gain … instead they blocked one of the islamic page was source of islamic information … what do u call this …ignorance ???
There is nothing just going on over fb the event is goin to occur on 20th may where artists wil compete by drawing pics …
I know there r many +ves of fb too but think a little bit that if somone cum and made funny pictures of your own mother or your own father wud u bear that all ???
This is insane! Un-ban facebook. How else will I keep in touch with my friends. You religious lot should just get off the internet, you’re too emotional to interact with other people.
i agree madiha\
@anonymous
facebook isnt the only way of communication..ppl living around the world usually communicate through skype , msn or other technology.
I dunno whether to laugh or cry. Banning a whole website for a page that had only 40,000 members. Did any of you people think about maybe NOT going to the page and ignoring it?
Idiots! This country truly is going to the dogs
i think ban on face book is the right decision
insane. you people probably don’t care cause you didn’t have any friends on facebook to begin with. freaks
guess i gotta haul ass over to myspace now
thanks a lot -.-
Facebook ban is the right step.facebook blocked a group of karachi accusing it of spreading hate,yet it is not stopping this nonsense.will fb allow a contest about holocaust.people you will not die without fb.a friend will remain a friend whether he is on fb or not.if it is about tolerance and speech freedom,devise a forum,why organise this nonsense.
I don,t know whats going on in paksitan what are they doing, when the pakistani court are failed to apply their decions on the government and politician they have decided to target the common people of the country, is it rite to ban those things which you do not like, you have banned the facebook but do you know how many peoples will face the defficulties due to this decions, is their no other solution of this matter??????????????????
First of all at topic “Yes , I liked the action taken by High Court”
@ Farrukh , [Comment ommitted for personal attack, insult and hate speech.
Dude ! grow up I might sounded like a pathetic being but Yes I would love to sacrifice all the things for sake of my Religion Islam ,
I wont mind telling you that I am the Admin for many of Pakistani Pages on FB , yet I am least concerned that deletion of my account would bother FB or not but atleast I would be satisfied to my Soul =))
Brothers and Sisters there are other means of communication too … wht befor fb … ?? were u waiting 4 fb 4 centuries …. ?
I AGREE WID KAMAL….
WAT A PERFECT SPEECH BUDDY.
just wanna to say that these all are nonscences .. facebook banned karnay se kuch nahi hoga… wo community to bni hi rahay gi…
so stop pretending to be a narrow mind! Jahil log …
So Re-active FB :@
@anonymous
remember the time when Prophet Ibrahim was thrown in the fire by Namrood … a frog came with water in its mouth and threw it on the fire… wht do u think wud tht small amount of water cud do anything to tht fire… No … but the frog did it .. because
ALLAH is not goin to ask how big ur action was and did u get the output…. ALLAH will see how big ur intention was….
Allah this and Allah that. What about non-muslims living in Pakistan? What should they do?
Why did facebook have to be banned for THE WHOLE COUNTRY? Why couldn’t you people just not use it while we used it and been happy. This is an intrusion on our rights, and we are not going to sit quiet while our favourite social networking website is banned for us.
@Ameeratron
As i said its every individual responsibility. and i agree I am not the one to say ban the site or not. Its for the courts to decide and we should respect the courts whatever it decides.
About Freedom of speech.
Do you know the history of Facebook of banning accounts. For your enlightenment just google what facebook has banned over these few years. You will get a good picture.
you will see the freedom of speech of Jihadi groups are accounted as extremism and they were banned. Why here draw the line. Don’t they have freedom to speak?
And about taking religion into everything. Its not the point. I am not discussing sugar, energy crisis here. I am giving my opinion on the current discussion.
And for noobs out there, just use an anonymous proxy to go to facebook. Its not a big deal.So please dont make a big fuss about the ban.
And if you still have a problem and you think you can defend your stance, go to the courts. Thats the proper thing one should do.But i know no body has the guts to do it and every single one of us know why.
@ usman
well said.
Usman why would you not go to the courts. worried about what would happen if you oppose them. why would you use a proxy you should respect whatever your court decides, you own words.
This is brilliant absolutely brilliant. Because of one group an entire country is banning the site. this is up there with the great firewall of china.
I honestly cant convey how funny this is to me. To see the pictures you have to join the group, if the pics offend you then dont join the group. No wait a better solution, ban facebook entirely. yes that is clearly the best course of action here.
There’s no use arguing with them. These people don’t understand the concept of ‘free speech’ or ‘freedom of choice’. Their lives revolve around being hypocritical and mixing an unhealthy dose of religion into everything.
They will wholeheartedly support all the hate groups that they create, against America and Israel and stuff. But heaven forbid that someone creates one against muslims, because then they’ll bitch and moan to the courts and get the entire website banned!
This is the stupidest thing ever. I’m just hoping they un-ban it on the 31st, so those of us who aren’t complete morons can go back to using facebook once more.
gud…it shud be baned cz we dnt want rubish stuff like dat on facebook…our religion is our first priority…we cnt alow anyone to interfair in our religion.if someone has extra time so he/she shud try 2 improve his own hand made religion.
An outstanding step taken by the government of Pakistan. Facebook is banned by Pakistan Telecommunication Authority. Let’s hope Facebook realize and remove such events/groups from its site; so that many software houses which are doing Facebook Application Development does not suffer great loss.
http://ranahammad.wordpress.com/2010/05/19/goodbye-facebook/
LoL so Funny , Farrukh you hid my comment well if you do not have enough courage to face better back off
Mr. Farrukh Khan Pitafi
shame on you .. thats all i can say
muslims dont want this facebook .. we will make our own book n thats not a big deal
but the black sheeps like you are really a pain for the muslims
kindly get yourself LOSTTT …
Ameeratron i feel sorry for you, i really do. Its just too funny but i can see if you live in the country and actually use facebook it could be a little annoying.
Is this the done thing then in Pakistan. will they ban anything that goes against what they believe.
Idiots! Do you honestly follow the Quran word by word?
Have you ever masturbated?
Have you ever lusted after a girl/guy
Have you ever been rude to your parents
Have you ever talked to a woman who wasn’t your relative
Have you ever seen pornographic material
Have you ever lied
Have you ever hurt someone
I could just keep going on and on. Don’t follow part of the religion unless you can’t follow the entire thing. All of you are hypocrites, and bigots.
Don’t be stupid Pakistan. Un-ban facebook. For the future of our country.
@Kamal & @AMS: Common brothers, do you really need to follow some 1 in ever n always. now you guys saying that why Pakistan is doing so only…..why are you hesitating to start a good deed. you are in stone age actually as you dont make any of decision by yourselves. atleast we as a nation shall decide now that what to do. If you talk about what other Islamic states are doing then also follow KSA in punishments, Iran in law & order, and similarly Egypt, Kuwait and syria in different good things. Common brothers if we are taking a step to do something for a good cause please be a part of that. This is to protest again what anti-Islamic groups are doing and FB is helping them to do at the lowest possible level. This is simply biasness and grouping and hurting the sentiments of Muslims across the globe. No matter FB is involved in it or not but they are helping them openly.
@So Funny, it’s rare, but it happens. They tried blocking youtube a few years back, but it backfired cause they ended up blocking it for the entire world for an hour or something.
This is really just a case of the stupid Muslims playing the martyr role, rather than just living their own frustrated lives.
Maybe I’m overreacting, but I LOVE facebook. And I spend like hours on it every day, so this just sucks. Big time!
For information
Iran , syria and china have already blocked facebook
and for people who still want facebook
Leave Pakistan
No more arguments….
@so funny
I am not using proxy b’cause i will not be using facebook.
I am recommending it to those who want to use facebook, so that they can at least stop giving the argument of not using facebook because of the ban.
Group page should be banned. Your point is right.
But by whom our courts or the facebook. The one who is not banning it you are supporting and the one who is banning it you are not supporting.
BRAVO
Courts atleast took some step to condemn FACEBOOK for its actions OF NOT BANNING THE GROUP PAGE
We are talking here like facebook admin are so MASOOM that they don’t know what’s happening on their own site, how the muslims sentiments are being mutilated.
If you say they don’t know these sentiments than that would be a really funny thing to say.

Wel said , Ahmed
hitry making step……
I remember the youtube thing, Pakistan was made the laughing stock of the world at the click of a mouse but that was forgotten soon enough
Now the same thing is happening again but this time over a group. that is just crazy
why not just ban travel to non muslim countries. This way you cannot be offended.
Why not just ban ANY business ties with non Muslim countries as you are financing the people you are so angry at.
I dont get it
it’s a good step.. no one is going to die without facebook..
Banning facebook is a good idea, or infact, very good idea. I think this is the first bold step taken by Pakistanis. And yea for those who love facebook more than their religion..
Leave Pakistan
I’M IN THE FAVER OF BLOCK FACEBOOK FOREVER
@So Funny, they’re just deluded - trying to portray a ‘holier than thou’ attitude while being the most hypocritical lot. You get lots of people like that over here. Give them access to a website where people have different views than theirs, and all hell breaks loose.
That’s why this country is never going to go anywhere. Rather than focusing on the terrorism, they’re focusing on banning a social networking website. Moronic.
Okay so I have mixed feelings regarding this ban. I say they are mixed because I do realise that its not the end of the world if we cannot access Facebook till the 31st. But the reason for the ban is absolutely ridiculous.
I come from a “religious” family and even for me this ban does not make sense. All Muslims would not like to see people defaming the Prophet (SAW), but we’ve got to face facts and realise that this is happening all over the internet. Yes, there’s an event on Facebook for this, but there are also trillions of YouTube pages solely dedicated to defaming Islam and our Prophet (SAW). There are also trillions of forums making fun of Islam. While we disagree with them, we cannot simply shut ourselves off from what is going on. Why aren’t we banning the internet as a whole? Why didn’t we ban Facebook when the first anti-Islam group was created?
I do realise that Facebook does get revenue and that the ban will affect them in a negative way, but it would have been SO much cooler if Muslims CHOSE to not go on Facebook themselves in order to protest instead of haviing no choice whatsoever.
While reading the comments on this page, I couldn’t help but notice the mass generalisation we’re making towards each other. Being “religious” does not = living in a cave. I know that that’s sadly how it seems, but its not true. Also, being secular does not = loving God less or anything of the sort. I think we should all just stop judging each other and simply look inward. ALL of us need to be open-minded when it comes to religion.
I continue living on hope. Hope for a better Pakistan. Hope for better Muslims in this world.
Well i think it was a wonderful act. Just to tell ya sumfin…..ameeraton, i also love facebook….and i too use it daily, twice or trice but i think Islam is our first priority! and this a ….lets see is an exam for all of us, muslims!! and well….we have hotmail!! so i think u dont have any strong point to un-ban facebook!! and dude its just fr few days!! and then we’ll have facebook bak!!
Don’t worry your dumb little heads about it, I’m leaving this shithole the first chance I get.
You seriously dont have a gud point. It doesnt even seem u r a muslim!! apney iman buland karo……!!
Farrukh Khan Pitafi seems to be the part of this pro american and western elite of this country which considers doing any thing for the cause of Islam as being a step towards thier “TALIBAISATION” fear..!!though i am addicted to facebook but my faith and my love for Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) is more important then some social website which does not care about the feelings of millions of its users who are constenetly bombarded my miscreats..!!Mr Farrukh stop worrying about what will the world think about us but worry about what will Allah think about us as does you fear and work for care least for Pakistan evern how much you and your elite serve them and please do not use this word “zialot” because you and your elite can also be labelled as the “pro american zoinst lot”
And those who say that their right has been taken by banning facebook, they should immediately leave Pakistan. Because In Pakistan, you know the rule, that sovereignty rests with Allah, not the people, and they are answerable in front of him. that means Islam is the forth most thing that one should think about.banning facebook for even 3 days will have a bad effect on their daily profit………..and they wud certainly close such stupid groups………..
Please let remain Pakistan an Islamic country, as it was founded on the basis of Islam.
Pakistan Zindabad
Islam the best religion
Leeny being religious and open minded rarely mix im afraid. If the book of your god tells you something is bad. how can you be open minded on the subject, your own god has told you its bad. who are you to question. Do you see my point. However i have spoken to many Muslims on the group that were very open minded and i am glad i had teh chance to speak with them. it has lifted the Dark viel that is portrayed by the other muslims telling me im going to die. In some cases it works brilliantly and in others not so much.
There are people on here that are even telling their own countrymen/women to get out of the country. Can you not see how this looks to the rest of the world.
What you say is so true tho i dont understand why Pakistan dont Ban the internet other than Pakistani sites. why because that would be bad for business. I dont see any uproar over this. Where are all the blogs and forums with people asking there government to ban the internet.
Pakistan high court has done the right thing to ban facebook (the writer seems to me a total fbk addict that instead of appreciating such a step by our govt. he is only complaining abt it) ..btw it is called recording ur protest in a peaceful way to the world …i wish every muslim country would ban facebook like pak..
Dolly peaceful protest is what the Everybody Draw Mohammed day is about. Its a peaceful protest.
Now lets take the artist who orientally drew the cartoons of Muhammed. it seems the protest against him was to kill him
VERY peaceful I must say
@Saad
Incorrect. Jinnah envisioned a secular state when he created Pakistan. It was never intended to be a Muslim country.
…Well Kamal… HAs raised Some VItal issues…
Look Everybody Whose in favour Of Banning Facebook Do Ur Background Checks…. Its Not About Loving facebook More Than Ur Religions… Im Ashamed To Say Pakistanis Are The Biggest Hypocrites Of The Muslim World… This All Started … When Comedy Central Producers received Death threats.. Think AboutIt they made Fun Of Every Religion I Am not Saying its Right To Draw images Of The Holy Prophet…it Should Be Condemned ..But With Death threats….??? Put Urselves in Those Producers Shoes… What Would You DO??? Saad Mirza Talks About a Bold Step… What bold Step in a Country where Corruption Reigns Supreme… Incompetent People lead… And People Do Heinous Sins…They become Holy In The Cause Of
What Some Radical Maniac Thinks Should Be Done…Gods Wants Spiritual Truth Not Fake Religious Minds Remember That!!
Isn’t banning facebook a peaceful protest…
On the other hand, we have to set an example to show them that unlike them, we love our religion the most…….
Banning facebook is NOT a peaceful protest, because people like me (who want to use facebook) are forced to stop using it. That isn’t peaceful at all.
Ameeratron are you muslim ?
@ ameeratron
dude i think u’ve forgotten the ideology of paksitan.
” Fundamentally in an Islamic state rests with Allah. The working of an Islamic government is conducted according to the Qur’anic principles and injunctions…..”
Quaid-e-azam expressed it about Paksitan
He also stated that the governship should be according to the rue of islamic shari’at.
yeh seems like people would die without facebook…any Muslim who sees the pictures they have added on that group would be shocked…shocked is a very small word! They made a dog and named it mohammad (ASTAGFIRULLAH!) and Muslims are busy fighting with one another…and questioning why other countries havent banned facebook blah blah! Freedom of speech you say? no religion has its values & respect? freedom of speech or hate speech? U decide!
Actually, here in lahore, many people have protested against this group in many places of the city… And by seeing this, the high court obviously thought that this is what the people want and so they ordered the ban… I for once do want it to get banned as facebook is anti-islamic… that group violated facebooks own terms and conditions and still they didnt remove it… Why be a part of something that does not like u at all… And if u wanna socialize, then go to myspace or hi5!
And by the way, facebook does earn alot from pakistan as, being a free site, it earns through the pay-per-click rate… That is approx. $2.50 per person… and so we contribute alot to their revenue… banning the site temporarily is a good step…
If they were drawing the pictures of ur parents, and then facebook wasnt going to ban it, then im positive that all of you would want it to get banned… U r just saying it cuz you all have distanced urselves from the Prophet (Peace be upon him) and his teachings!
Well said mskhan………this country does not progress because of the pro- american people living in Pakistan…….. For me My religion comes first, then comes my country, then anyhing other.
Pakistan zindabad
Islam the best religion
A Wonderful Decision by Pakistani Courts. May ALLAH (S.W.T) bless the ones who have made this decision, ones who have implemented it, ones who have initiated this and ones who are appreciating this as it is not the matter what it will do to the FB management, it is indeed the duty of us to atleast do what we can. Rest May ALLAH (S.W.T) give us Hidayah and strength to get the gustaakh e Rasul (S.A.W) disappear from the face of the earth. (Aameen)
And by the way, for all of those talking about ‘freedom of speech’, u all should know that it has its limits… you have to be ethical and respectful to others… It does not mean that u can abuse someone whenever u want, and say anything to anyone… So yeah, it should be in limits!
As Ameeratron said No peaceful protest forces people to do anything. My peaceful protest was to draw an image of your prophet. It was peaceful as no one got hurt. no one was forced to view my image. in fact the only people that have seen it are people that went looking for it.
Banning facebook for an entire country is not peaceful and it worries me that you think it is
yess i agree thr are a LOT of other junk groups full of atheists and Islam haters but dedicating a day for “Draw Mohammad Day???” they have lost it…i wonder what satisfaction they get by doing all this :$
So? Youtube has a ton of videos bashing Islam. Are you guys gonna petition to ban youtube too?
When you run into websites that you don’t like are you just going to keep banning them?
Jesus. Have some self restraint and be a little more secure in your religion.
well ofcourse we see it when u post it on muslim profiles and in newspapers and on the internet its not hidden! dedicating a day to sthg is not “peaceful” it’s causing disturbance and every cause has a protest
Freedom of speech does not mean that they can say whatever they want to, and to whoever they want to. There is always a line which should not be crosses.
If we make cartoonist characters and therefore fun of Holocaust, we can imagine how they will react. I simply applaud what the pakistan is doing. =) we have cut off from their social website, which is nothing compared to what they have done. But this simple boycott might show them that we are united and wont stay shut and simply watch them ridicule our religion.
No wonder, we Pakistanis are completely idiot and we are trying to make fool out of ourselves..
Banning the facebook will just take us backward nothing else..
Pakistan only contributes 1.3 traffic of total facebook.. and If u add all Islamic countries then it would be only 3.7% So do you think that is it really going to affect them? I dont think so..
So plz stop this nonsense and stop behaving like an illiterate person..You people don’t realize but we are really hurting ourselves by taking such idiotic steps..
well personally i think facebook shud take the group off not only this one but ALL hate groups concerning ANY religion or against any religious person…i have teh same view that banning fb wont make much a dffrnce
crossed**
bannin fb wont make much a difference and neither will banning facebook take us backward… it’s a network and helps us connect but it’s not a lifeline! C’mon!!!!
we are not trying to attack their economy. Don’t you get it? we are just showing our “dis-like” to their attempts to ridicule our religion. It’s a silent protest and Its the thought that counts. They will get affected by it, no doubt.
Facebook is not trying to ridicule your religion. Grow up, for pete’s sake.
@ all thoz asking to those who banned fb to grow up……..shut up….it was the right decision….Y cant u live without it?? Is it more important to u thn ur Prophet??
A Wonderful Decision by Pakistani Courts. May ALLAH (S.W.T) bless the ones who have made this decision, ones who have implemented it, ones who have initiated this and ones who are appreciating this as it is not the matter what it will do to the FB management, it is indeed the duty of us to atleast do what we can. Rest May ALLAH (S.W.T) give us Hidayah and strength to get the gustaakh e Rasul (S.A.W) disappear from the face of the earth. (Aameen)
Agreed to Sister Tayyaba!!!! It might wont affect their economy at all and thats not the target…….main thing is that we want to tell the world that we Love Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) and this is the lowest way to do that. best way is to take the neck off shoulder. May we get that level of Eemaan (Aameen)
How does banning facebook make you a better muslim? It’s the equivalent of an ostrich burying it’s head in the sand.
@ Ameeratron:
What else is facebook doing? It would not ban that group when thousands of people reported against it. Its sad that most of us are not getting affected by images of our Prophet (S.A.W) being ridiculed. Its sad. and I think most of us have grown up a little too much to see that.
It does not make us a better Muslim. we are sinners. All of us. But we still have some shame. And we respect Our HOLY PROPHET from the HEART.. Dont you feel degraded, even a tad bit?
@Ameeratron: I guess you dont have religouos affiliation so you cant understand what real emotions are …..Just tell me one thing if some1 start a contest of making cartoons of your loved ones (Although that is not even a tiny part equivalent to our love for our Prophet) so you will go and happily attend that contest????Just reply this.
Instead of wasting time on facebook, as usually more than 90% of Pakistanis do, we should make our own Muslim Book. Stop wasting your precious time on a useless garbage like facebook and do some creative work. All the talent of youth is wasted by facebook and mobile phones. These are two MONSTERS of nowadays in Pakistan. Come out of this fake world of facebook and do something practically as a unit and for that we should generate GUTS first which is unfortunately a big deal. The criers are just “mummy daddy kids”.
And for those who are worried about the ban, I am copying the words of Madiha :
“If any other muslim country has not taken any action thn your ALLAH will not ask u on the Day thatif somone didnt take action thn u shud not also do any thing … HE will ask u y u didnt take any action… we are accountable for our own acts … wake up now …. come out of your own lives”….
Lol.. just tell me, WHO the hell on earth clicks on the ads given on sidebar of facebook? It’s us! the users! so you cannot say that there will be no loss if we don’t use facebook.. get a live..
No, I wouldn’t happily attend that contest. But I’d ignore it and live my own life. That’s what you people don’t understand. It’s free speech, no matter how bad it is. It’s what makes the difference between a repressive country and a free and liberal one.
Personally, I feel shocked that they can just ban a website that had 45 million people from Pakistan without even giving anyone a warning, or asking if they wanted it to be banned. I’m sure there are millions of Pakistani’s who want facebook to be un-banned. So don’t act so holy, because freedom of speech has nothing to do with religion.
The people who made that fan page were dumbasses. Does that mean you have to get carried away as well and demand the entire website to be deleted? You want me to have some shame? Well, why don’t you lot grow brains first?
The group isnt Anti Muslim. The point of it is that no group religeous or not should be able to dictate what others do.
I am not a Muslim i do not live in a muslim country. why should i live by your rules. i am not trying to impose my beliefs on you. why are you doing it to me.
I am lucky i do not live in the country but people like Ameeratron are being punished because the rest of you are over reacting. If any of you had seen teh comments on the page you would have (i hope) been ashamed of the comments Muslims were saying to us, while saying it is a religion of peace
what you do in your own home is your business but dont force it on teh rest of us.
The best part of it is if you had ignored the group it would never have got the publicity it has now. now the entire world know about the group. you have effectively given us more publicity than we could have EVER imagine. an entire country has banned facebook. as i said before funniest thing i have read in a while
ITS A SILENT PROTEST. Don’t you get it? Majority wins. The rest of us who have a problem with that can go suck on it for ten days =)
So if you will live you life happily and dont bother about that then i will quote your words for you” It’s the equivalent of an ostrich burying it’s head in the sand”
As a Muslim its not only that we have to get away from the sins but we have to stop them either by hand, by tongue and the lowest level is to say them bad.
I hope you get my point and i appologize if any of my comment have hurt your feelings as the purpose is to share the ideas and try to tell each other the better things.

Whatevs. I can’t bother arguing anymore. I’m just gonna try learning how to work proxies so I can continue wasting hours on facebook.
@Tayyaba, it’s 10 days initially. After that it’s probably gonna be banned forever in the court hearing.
I think whatever is happening it’s all sood. I’m happy.
Pakistan Zindabad!!
I dont really mind. So shouldnt the rest of us. Its juts a social network. there are a billion others. The most desperate of us can totally join them.
Naba what is sood?
HAHA
Tayyaba how do you know my name?
Tayyaba it’s soo*
what do you want to be..an editor?
I’m with Ameeraton.
No naba you are not.
sme muslims r not agree wid dis i jst want 2 say islam is a religon of peace but if sme one said anythng wrong about our beloved prophet MUHAMMAS(SAW).HE OR SHE
Yeah but none of the other ones are good. Myspace, bebo, hi5… they all suck! There’s a reason facebook has 350 million members. -.-
SHOULD DIE INSHALLAH
Naf are you saying the way of Islam is to stop other sins!
Can you not be content with the fact that if you are right you are going to heaven and im not. I am perfectly fine with this. i am happy in fact, with this. It means i can live my life the way i want, by my own morals and not hide behind a book. I like to think for myself and if that means im going to hell so be it. I am not trying to take you with me.
so why cant you leave me alone. that is all we are asking for.
AMEEROTN(PIG).U R NOT GOING TO DIE AND DNT WORY ABOUT UR SOCIA NETWRKNG WHN UR FATHER MET WID UR MOM AND U BORN THR WAZNT ANY SOC NETWRKNG I SUGEST JUST KEEP UR MOUTH SHUT
@Fakhr Z
You’re such a good, peaceful muslim. I’m sure your God is proud. Weirdo.
Keep your own goddamn mouth shut, you filthy little coward.
Ameeraton, go join twitter!
Get over with this Facebook issue like honestly.
Socializing with people can also be done with Msn but if your too eager to comment on other people profiles, or stalking their profiles. Then you really are desperate for Face book.
yeah its great that facebook is ban in PAKISTAN.INSHAALLAH facebook will die soon .
3 things..
One: why ban when we could have simply ignored and let this day pass by with out any encouragement but now with all media and govt interference people know about this group of hatred. this may will pass and the “targeted day” also.. then what?..
what is the guarantee that any group with such an offensive content will not be seen..
Two:I am also hurt by the group and its blasphemy but i didn’t know any such group until i got an invitation to report this group and join another several groups against it.
Three:by giving up using fb we are just letting our power to counteract against the mentioned group. Its now like fighting without a weapon.
No one can be addicted to anything it is a rule of life. but to ban fb is just like leaving battle field before you even try to fight..
Nida i second that.
Well said, but i think Face book should take a step by deleting that group as in infringes more hatred all over.
FACEBOOK SHOULD BE BANNED!!!!!!!!
damn itz really dis-apointin , i tOtally agree wid Farukh ,Sara n ameeratOn
our ppl factually need to GROW UP in real meaningz
facebook should be banned in Pakistan due to the acts against Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)
GO BAN GOOGLE TOO
az it guides u to so much more such material on other sites
ban awl d search enginez ….v r simply acting lyk sum LOOSERZ
@ AMEERT.
OK DARING BOY IT SEMZ LIKE U R MORE THN COWRD COZ EVERYONE IS FELNG U R DYING WITHOUT FACEBOO BUT INSHALLAH IT SHOULD BE BANNED FOREVR.ITS A DCSN MADE BY PAKISTANIS SO IF U HAVE ANY PROBLM JST EVE DS COUNTRY SIMPLE
@Ameeratron
i know what you are trying to say all along but it is covered with the hatred of this country.
many of us are violent by nature please keep your cool.
i am hurt by the blasphemous cartoons of my prophet not from tomorrow.
everyone knows MUSLIMS (the righteous one) dont like to draw their prophet unlike other religions (no offense to any religion).
so people should respect this practice.
i dont join any groups having offensive content against any religion or country and i dont appreciate them.
@everyone..
try to think out of the box.
the act to ban fb might be another conspiracy to mentally paralyze us.
This just goes to show that muslims leave no opportunity unavailed in presenting themselves as true idiots.
Why are you all having a go at Ameeratron just because he doesnt agree with your views.
what Nida said was perfect. If you dont agree with the group speak to people about it. I dont agree with what most of you here are saying so i have made a point to talk to you all. Although you are deciding to ignore me and attack a fellow country man.
you are doing what you country is doing putting your head in the sand and hoping the rest of the world will go away. I am here speaking with you. not telling you that you should die which has already happened on here.
engage in discussion and talk with people. Dont preach just talk. instead you are sowing your mouths shut and letting the rest of the world laugh

FB must be banned in pakistan … i had already deleted my account on FB.
“I’m sorry that people are so jealous of me, but I can’t help it that I’m popular.”
On a serious note, what do you mean ‘keep your cool’. I have kept my cool. I’m just pissed off and frustrated cause I cant access my favourite website any more.
You’re all insinuating that facebook supports the ‘everybody draw mohammad day’ event, which isn’t true. Facebook is Switzerland; it has no affiliation with anyone.
@ AMMAR SEMZ LIKE INDIAN SHIT.
@ AMEERTN U SOON GOING TO LEVE THIS COUNTRY.BOY HEL IS WAITING FR U
@ Ameeratron
dude y r u even living here in the first place..?
trying to preach abt freedom of speech u should first go and look up its meaning urself.. a lot of ppl have already made their points and there have been many incidents when groups against americans, israel etc have been deleted but no action against this one.. freedom of speech u n author say..? F*CK u both i say..!
now am i a hypocrite because i just abused u using freedom of speech..? o crap i hope not..

Why not go one step further and Ban the internet
Surely there is lots out there that offends Muslims. No search engine bans these sites if you type in google everybody draw… guess what is the first thing to come up.
Pakistans answer ban google for they have offended me. its so funny its tragic it really is
LOL @ Cheap ,Silly minds
I can still access facebook.. It’s pretty simple to bypass
I’m more pissed about the ban because me and most of my friends were going to boycott it(the muslim ones that is). The ban sidelines the whole effort put into the boycott.
The kind of people who do initiate a lot of the anti-facebook pro-muslim, anti-amriky emotions are so annoying.. They’re the kind of people who Frandship any girl they find one moment and ‘like’ Allah is my best friend page the next.. Very unsavory and hypocritical. They just can’t think beyond extremes.
I was boycotting it because it was a hate group.. pure and simple. I have seen the drawings and I didn’t lose my my faith or go berserk with sadness.. they were kind of lame actually.. but honestly people who’re latching onto the idea aren’t freedom of speechers but people who hate Muslims. I’d rather have these hate groups pulled off even the ‘I hate india’ ones *gasp horror shock*
@Fakhar Z, nice! It seems that if you have your own opinion, you’re labelled as ‘indian shit’. Racist weirdo. I’m not Indian (not that there’s anything wrong with Indians). I’m Pakistani, I’ve lived here my whole life.
@Computer Angel.
I’m here because I can be here. I am at every right to debate my stance, just like you guys are debating your’s. Show me proof that facebook is being discriminatory towards muslims, and I’ll believe you. In the meantime, zip it.
@Blah Blah, how did you bypass it? I’m kinda a noob when it comes to hacking/proxies.
Listen buddies,
I read all comments above and some of the reports on all the newspapers all around the world regarding this issue, and come to this conclusion that,
People who are against this activity are greater in value then the people in favor, but still facebook didn,t stoped it, and nobody bothered all around globe, But when Govt of Pakistan ban facebook, the media, news papers and electronic media start talking about it. Now everyone is taking it seriously.
I would like to say, that i really appriciate the step of Govt of Pakistan to ban facebook, atleast they record their feelings regarding this issue, and i suggest if facebook didn’t take action to rectify their mistake then ban facebook forever. I am sure soon other Muslim countries will join Pakistan to ban facebook.

God bles evryOne wid such state ov minds…
FB shudnt b bannd , its just a sOcial networkin site, use it lyka social netwrkin site only
dat is it …
Guys this is just ridiculous.
no hacking/proxy involved.. just access facebook through https instead of http.. That’s what I’ve been doing for the 4 years in uni.
i am very happy for this act in pakistan…
well done PTA & Lahore Court
thanks…
AMEERATON
I DIDNT CAL U AN INDIAN I WAZ TALKING ABOUT AVINASH UR BRO AND HOW MCH PAKISTANI U R AM FELNG IT..
IF FACEBOOK CANT CARE FOR MUSLIMS AND CARE FOR THOSE 40000 HARAMIZ THN NO WONDER WE R GOING TO SPOT FB
dis is so full ov craps
@ Blah blah blah
ure FRANDSHIP stuff waz so right and funny too …lol
First of all : The Holy Prophet SAW , was disrespected by the people of the valley of Taif . What did the Prophet’s companions did ?? nothing, the reason was that the Holy Prophet PRAYED for the conversion of TAIF to a muslim community . U cannot say that u love the Holy Prophet more than his beloved companions . Islam is a religion of peace and we donot retaliate like cowards .
Second : because of this ban , many revolutionist groups like ‘Young Pakistan’ and many more encouraging the ideas of youth helping in the base of this country cannot be accessed now….
Third : If you are a true believer , first of all u dont pray 5 times a day , u dont follow the Prophets Sunnah , and you’re saying you ‘love’ him ?? what is this love that u protect him and u dont obey the commands of ALLAH ??
Fourth : If you REALLY love the Holy Prophet , first of all you will try to win the battle within urself , then if you feel disrespected by these “zionist” websites, you will leave them, but to ‘BAN’ facebook , u wont get any better. But it is a win for them to take you off facebook , so that u cannot spread the word of ISLAM over there.. i myself realized a lot about many things from Facebook , for e.g patriotism for your country ….
MAIN FACT : If you are really pissed, deactivate, But why should you ban it for those who dont want to indulge in anything but do there own work … (FYI i consider fb not as an addiction but a social networking website so i wont die)
@ Blah blah HTTPS thing nawt workin wid me :S
When you start banning a site, social networking group, or any form of free communication… you ban freedoms such as free will, free speach, freedom of choice, free thought…
I, for one do not think the historical religious figures of any religion ”care” about what the ”unfaithful” say… only what the ”faithful” say and do!
Just because one does not agree with another’s religion or religious figures does not make them ”lawless”. The ”unfaithful” are ignorant and will remain so. Taking up the sword - in speach and deed will only inflame and give cause toward hatred.
When any disagreement broaches on rudeness - poking fun - yadayada, well just stand your ground - take the hit and let it roll on by… Christians would call that ”turning the other cheek”.
It is an example well learned by everyone of all faiths.
JMO - Thank You!
well said Sara
@sana
https still working for me :S
Ameertron why are they so angry at you. im one of the people that drew a prophet to stand up for my rights. All you have done is say you dont agree with banning FB. even tho you have said you think the group was stupid
Once again you are all making yourselves look like fools.
TRUTH AND LIGHT NEEDS NO PROTECTION
u all must know about the woman who used to throw the garbage at The Holy Prophet ?
The day she dint done this ,He [PBUH] gave a visit at her place only to confirm her health .
He (PBUH) taught this ISLAM , Not the things you ppl are on practice
whats your ISLAM?
you only know to hate? to ban? to kill ?

FACEBOOK WILL REMAIN CLOSED TILL 31ST MAY ON THE STRICT ORDER OF LAHORE HIGH COURT WHICH WERE GIVEN DUE TO THE CELEBRATION OF THE “DRAW MOHAMMAD DAY” ON FACEBOOK…I AM HAPPY TO HEAR THAT BECAUSE IT WAS GOING AGAINST ISLAM…BUT FB CAN BE ACCESED BBY UFONE,JAZZ AND ZONG CONNECTIONS(ONLLYY TRYING WITH OTHER CONNECTIONS WILL RESULT IN A PERMENANT DEACTIVATION OF YOUR ACCOUNT!!)
BEAWARE,
REGARDS
Lokas why not ban the internet
Thats good. I really appreciate that facebook is banned in Pakistan. We shall tell them that we are alive and we can fight against them…
its good to see that face book is banned in Pakistan.. Nice work
what are you guyz upto??
facebook is blocked and it is a CORRECR decision
because there are more then 40 millions fb accounts just associated from pakistan and just by banning in pakistan it will gonna cost a hell lot to facebook admins! the advertisement companies will not pay them the amount they usually pay…this is a way to pressurize facebook so that they will stop thes religious discrimination activities!!
GO TO HELL SANA…BITCH
We should protest and fight against facebook. Its really a good work that facebook is banned in Pakistan….
While Facebook claims to be very decent and unarming for any human being, respects copyright, and follows so many so called ethics, doesn’t it have the sense that humiliating the religious feelings of Muslims, Christians, Hindus or any other religion is totally unethical. They must keep a track on such groups and pages created on their platform that encourage hatred, blasphemy or disregarding or humiliating any religion or race.
sana and all muslims who r not happy with the bna, u just go to hell…kutti sana …

If you love facebook than Islam and Pakistan then Getlost from Pakistan
Simple….
@ Grow up guys
Who ever you are !! Just asking you are you muslim ??
@ Grow up guys
Who ever you are !! Just asking you are you muslim ?? If Yes then u love your Prophet or stupid Facebook ???
they know how emotional muslims are.. and they make such groups and pages and events just to increase and gain more people towards it..
let me give you one example.. once i’d recive invitation to join group against another group that was against islam.. i search for why they had created.. and i came to the conclusion that any page against islam with that name does not exist.. the page was against “F*** Allah group” Naouz-i-Billah and so many muslims joined it without investigation of the real thing..
that page that looked like it was in our favor was actually paying benefits to non-muslim.. so that was the trick
and my suggestion is rather to join such group.. report these groups that are against islam and also the groups that are against these anti-islam groups..
its not there fault anywayz
i know they are taught to do dis
God bless
and one more thing.. to banned something is not the solution.. do some thing extraordanry and give something better than facebook to world. ” hater is not the solution to any problem.. hard and honest work is to prove oneself best is the solution”
@ Rafay
its not abt the religion
its about the mentality man
true quiterz never win
i appreciate the decision of the lahore court.. but i wanted to ask when we log in to facebook does the owner get money for it.. btw we should also ban pakistani companies to advertise of facebook its a huge source of income to them!
@num
Facebook earns money when someone see their addvertisments
@ALL in favour of FB: Guys just tell me if some 1 do the biggest cruelty with any 1 of you, what will you do????Just sit behind and relax????? Try to dishonor our prophet (S.A.W) is of much more severity for me as compared to sum 1 do sumthing with me personally. As a UMMAH we are collectively condemning this act at the lowest level and as a Muslim state its a least possible act which can be done.
If you guys are non muslims then ofcourse you wont understand it…but at the same time you dont have a right to speak in this issue as well so please behave….
I mean seriously people all over the world post blasphemous material about Christianity and Hinduism and many other religions they don’t go around banning sights. They ignore such ignorance and don’t give such obscene material importance.BY BANNING FACEBOOK THE PERSON WHO MADE THIS PAGE ON FACEBOOK IS PROBABLY FEELING PRETTY IMPORTANT RIGHT ABOUT NOW. THINKING THAT HE GOT A RISE OUT OF PAKISTAN.
WHEN ARE PAKISTANIS GOING TO STOP CARING WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK AND REALIZE THAT FREEDOM OF SPEECH CANNOT BE STOPPED IN OTHER COUNTRIES.
I am very much against the views of Mr. Farrukh, I mean i am not that much religious type of a person but some issues must be inflexible, I am the user of fb but I do support the ban as it is the resposiblity of the fb management to discourage such acts and if we do not react today then it would be late. All those who doest support court verdict over this issue they should know, either they are with us or against us viz with muslims or against muslims.
@ Growup guyz
Hey ! If you dont agree with the decision of LHC ! Go and case on them
*Pakistanis feelin headache because of some unloyal Muslims* !
Well , I strongly believe that it’s the right step taken by the Government of Pakistan. Well atleast boycotting the Facebook is a form of protest – to make the Facebook administration realize their biased strategy.
Facebook is governed under its Terms of Services. Item 3.7 of Facebook TOS says “You will not post content that: is hateful, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence”
That page was reported by atleast 35,000 facebook users… so what happend?? NOTHING…!!
However, facebook continued banning the pages created by muslims against the jews..
FACEBook is supporting the draw day.
I strongly agree with the action taken by our Government of Pakistan …
well i would call it a Wonderful Decision by Pakistani Courts. May ALLAH (S.W.T) bless the ones who have made this decision, ones who have implemented it, ones who have initiated this and ones who are appreciating this as it is not the matter what it will do to the FB management, it is indeed the duty of us to atleast do what we can. Rest May ALLAH (S.W.T) give us Hidayah and strength to get the gustaakh e Rasul (S.A.W) disappear from the face of the earth. (Aameen)
Facebook owner is also against Islam thats why he dosnt deleted those groups ! before bycotting millions of muslims reported that page but Oener didnt delete that !! I m with LHC ! Ban FB forever… If anyone thinks I m wrong ho and case in High Court again
Soon Other Muslim states will ban Facebook too Inshallah ! like Malaysia , indonysia etc !
R U guys kidding me!!!. I have never been soo shameful about my country b4. n more so after reading most of ur comments. This is unbelievable, unbelievable. where is these country heading man! it scares me. I don’t want my kid growing. please guys try to understand this is extremism. All u guys r brianwashed for sure. I never saw any site or FB page showing pbuh pics b4 getting these stupid requests. Unreal I swear!!!!!!!!

@nedved: well for me its unbelievable that a day is here when some 1 sayin to the ones who are protesting against the dishonour attempt of some 1 more dearer to their lives even that they are brainwashed?????ridiculous man……..
In fact its wat western media speaking. neways may ALLAH pak guide you to the true path.
See you guys are having such a good time here, why facebook? Fb kills time, obviously arguing here is doing the same for you people!
FB Just kills time ! its just a piece o trash !
again a disputed decission , they should have banned the page/group/link that actually invited for that kind of sutpid and racist activity. and for people who dont their kids living/growing in pakistan can goto someother country and enjoy Third Grade citizenship . You have to stand against everything which even tries to disprespect Prohphet (PBUH) , May Allah give us strength to defend our religion and for people who created this page.. Please stop this Rubbish,anyhow you are going to burn in HELL ultimately ….
boo!!!! un-ban facebook!!!!
@ pakistanis…. ofcourse I love prophet mohammad(pbuh) more than anything n i don’t have to explain that but what the hell does it have to do with banning FB.
@Naf i am sure u can easily go and search other sites showing these pic y not banned internet all together. Please!!!! anyways i really don’t want to argue n don’t understand a single point u guys r making…..it is actually funny!! U guys just need a reason to involve religion in everything. Please please try to think a little bit with ur head n not emotions.
y they banned a facebook?
we people do d right thing,,nd told them a right thing abwt ISLAM..
they will b laugh on us,,
they will say pakistan cannt face the difficulities abwt ISLAM..
i think we should b take action against the ban,,
cuz we suggested people abwt ISLAM,,
and many other religios imprressed it,,
@ Nadved !
People are making cartoons of Hazratt Muhammad PBUH and you are asking why LHC banned FB ??? CAnt you see reason by your own eyes ?
@ Bluff Master
on FB Some people are making fun of our Prophet Nouzbillah ! And u r asking the same question what that blind nadved asked !
I hope Nadved and Bluff Master Allah will show you the right path ! and you will also be against facebook
Long Live LHC
Pakistan Zindabad
@ bluff I totally get your point.
i m wid nadved,,
u r rite,
Bravo Pakistan, done the right thing. Shame on facebook and shame on all those who think this is not a good move. The bottom line of all these posts is IF facebook really cares about Muslims and their feelings they will remove the contents immediately and if they don’t will we use facebook again?
@ pakistanis I am sorry i wasted my time. I love u man
Long live everybody!!!!
Bluff Master I request you to correct your grammer
@ Nadved
Dont worry one day you will also be on the right path and When I made a group against jews FB owner deleted it but when people made group against Islam Owner didnt did anything why ? I m waiting fo yo answer Nadved….
then y they dont ban the yahoo,,youtube,,bebo,,
hotmail,,bala bala bala,,
Thats simply awsome. I agree , facebook should be banned - why the F*** facebook was not deleting this page when eeveryone was reporting it? Facebook is involved in this all darama……. We will show them we are not addicted to it………
Please dont be childish and dont overreact….. not using facebook for few days will not put any harm to you but it will defintely harm these FU*** FACEBOOK OWNERS… who denied to block that page…….
I have visted that page and the talk and the pictures they have uploaded was disgusting…
I appreciate Government decsion and I hope Facebook will remain banned untill they remove this page……..even if the bann is lifted I have decided i will not use facebook untill the page will be remove.
@ Bluff Master
they didnt banned Youtube , Yahoo bebo , etc because they are not saying / ding anything against Islam ! But facebook is making fun of our religion…. Any questions ? Bluff master
haterz i m not here for english language test,

goodnyyt
that is best action taken by Judiciary to banned Facbk, every one have to respect to all religious. this is not liberty to be this type of things against Islam this is called JAHALAT
We Proud to be Pakistani.
ISLAMI JAMHORIA PAKISRAN ZINDABAD
@Haterz N u please change ur username, doesn’t give a right impression.and frankly speaking I don’t know y they deleted ur page against Jews n r not deleting this antimuslim page! That not the point. We just need a reason to overreact on everything. I don’t appreciate FB for not deleting the page. But banning it as a country n that also from high court orders is extreme!!!
N this is what I call extremist mentality.
@Faizi ofcourse not using FB for few days is not a problem. I hardly use it maybe once in 2-3 days. But the point is how we react. As BLUFF was trying to explain, if we banned something, how will we be able to explain r point of view to others n protest.
@Pakistanis!! defending Islam here n is the only one swearing!!!!!!!! U!!! should be shameful of yourself. U r the problem!! not FB
And Bluff ur right its not the language u speak or the way u speak it. Its the mentality
@Nedved: Wat do you mean by extremist haan???? If loving the greatest man ever existed on the face of earth is extremism then yes i am an extremist….
Rather extremism is wat west is doing. they find 1 american terrorist in their country and start to give stick to the whole muslim world thats extremism…Open your eyes a prey of enlightened moderation…..
i am again and again saying that saying these acts bad and by banning we are saving millions of people who were reading the same sinful statement again and again and commiting sin each moment. so by keeping it banned atleast not our pakistani brothers and sisters commiting that sin any more each moment
and i wish the whole Muslim UMMAH stand against it together. (Inshaa’ALLAH)
More over i tell you that this is the weakest thing we can do else alot more needs to be done.
Man I am unable to understand why its a big deal in your view to not use facebook? CHINA and Vietnam has already banned it in their country for their own reasons.
I just sometime feel we as a nation are being dull, we just cant be united on one thing…. and then come out of lame justifications proving individual interests.
For me banning/Using the facebook is not a big deal its just a timepass.(actually waste of time)… I need one answer from facebook, why they yet havn’t deleted that page? They delete fake profiles in 24 hours, fake name in 24 hours, nude pictures profile in 200 reports….. but they can’t delete that page when more then 2 million people reported it , also everyone can see this is against muslim…….If no one trust me then go and make a page against JEW , you will realize it will be deleted in 24 hour……they are not banning the problematic page due to certain plan and agenda…..
I am banning the usage of it because I feel facebook is involved, unless they proove they are not involved by deleting the page… I will not use it and will favor the ban.
@nedved I don’t wont to compete here with u on who loves prophet pbuh more, i consider myself religious n try to follow quran n islam in daily life. N i don’t think ur extremist cuz u love prophet mohammad pbuh but cuz u want the government to ban things and not let people like me explain our point of view! extreme actions!!
i am hare for some time and one after an other hindus and black sheeps are running from hare.coz fakerz nevr win
@ faizi
al musims and whole nation is agree,and those wh r nt agree they r nt muslims or black sheeps
Islam is the most peaceful religion of the universe…..Islam teaches us to respect the humanity, respect all the religions, the followers of all other religions and so on. But on the same note it is also our moral duty to protect the honor of our religion and who else is more important for a muslim but ALLAH (S.W.T) and prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). the least possible thing is to save ourselves and our muslim brothers and sisters to read the sinful statements again and again and the best way to do that is to block a page for as many days as they are playing around. tell me if i am wrong…..
and secondly you know that how the page got banned…..people protest and went to court as for them it was a serious matter……so to all those people for whom its not a serious matter they have option to go to courts. in fact they are just blogger and dont have any actually feeling. even they dont know that wat they are saying is right or wrong. they are just used to of writing comments and thats it.
Hah. You deluded people never cease to amaze me (and not in a good way). Mark Zuckerberg is probably thanking his lucky stars that you lot can’t use his site anymore.
@fakhar LOLX fakerz never wins or fakhar never wins hahaha!!!!!! just on light note
OK guys conclusion is that it is awesome step taken by the courts and the ones who cant live without FB shall either.
1) leave Pakistan.
2) go to court as the ones who get this block did.
But trust me….best thing is to get united…..take the weakest possible stand for our beloved prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) as its most imp thing for us.
May ALLAH bless us all and show us the right path. (aameen)
Something i wanna put highlight on “nationalism is indeed very strong among Chinese Young generation”………See below…
But why is Facebook banned in China?
x Insight 1 : Politics
As a group supporting political activism in Xinjiang appeared on Facebook, the government took sanction against the social network. According to article, Chinese netizens “agreed that Facebook should be punished for that” – nationalism is indeed very strong among Chinese Y generation.
What could have been done is ask Facebook to block such groups in China, just like Google was asked to filter results if it wanted to enter the market – but Google generates money as Facebook still struggle to find a long term viable business model so that leads me to :
hahahahaha…..u guys r funny
Ahhh… Guys… (those who arnt supporting the idea)!! well this is for Muslims.. i wunder how can you ppl tolerate such a thing?? my Blood was boiling when i first heard about this God Damn Contest.. YU ppl wudnt Die Withot facebook.. i hav an Account there… it aint Oxygen Guys… you can live without it… A Very Good Action taken by the LAHORE HIGH COURT..!! And Ameeratron: Mark Zuckerberg Is crying.. he is going to face a BIG BIG loss… well he is facing… last time wehn ppl Boycotted Facebook for a day… The loss went like 70 million Dollars… and it was like a Few ppl Boycotting facebook from Pakistan for 24 hours. and now the Whole country is Boycotting for like 264 hrs.. the Estemated Loss is about 100 Trillion Dollars! HAHA… Poor Lad Mark Zukerberg the Jewish Extremest! huh
We muslims cannot accept any sort of blasphemy against our beloved Prophet S.A.W.W. what so ever. There is no other option !!!
If any muslim in any way accepts such an act, then he is violating the basic concept of Islam and should ask for forgievness from ALLAH S.W.T.
Haha, you ignorant bufoons are all the same. Blaming everything on Jews and all. You guys see smoke and instantly assume fire. Open your minds a little. And stop being such narrow minded bigots.
Also, a lot of people are telling me to ‘get out of pakistan’. Why should I? I will sit here and continue to bitch and moan (in vain, no doubt) as much as I want, and you guys can’t do a damn thing about it. That’s called free speech. Deal with it, you bimbos.
hahahaha no 1 is saying you to leave pakistan if you dont want to. stay here and cry n moan as you cant do any thing else rather than just doin that…….if you could have done anything else then you werent here after getting smacked up by tons you loser.
Ahahaha look at us being all big and brave over the internet. If you’re such a good muslim why don’t you make a pact with yourself never to masturbate or stare at girls again.
Can you do that? Can you truly follow your religion the way it was meant to be followed?
No? I didn’t think so. So you can take your self righteousness, and stick it right up your arschloch(it’s german, google it).
i m very much addicted to facebook..bt it should be banned completely..MR>FARUKH…shame on u..u r stint on the muslim community…wel just gve me simple answer…if sme one draw a picture of ur mother or father or sister or wife caricature..wht would u do thn…but let it be banned forever…
everyone of you is going to use facebook after a month ….. we dont pray 5 times a day and we’re here to protect our religion …. WOW …. and you know what… i didnt even know there was a group like this UNTIL I SAW ANTI- groups of that group giving links….. THEY WANT THIS TO HAPPEN … they made a group in which they compared ALLAH , to a swine (Nauzubillah) , and WHY DIDNT WE BAN IT THEN ?? The Holy Prophet drawings are a bigger controversy for u guys …. if facebook bans that group 1000000 more groups will emerge… think rationally guys ….
@farjadpatz they can’t think rationally, that’s the problem. They’re all just trying to convince themselves that they’re good muslims because they forcefully banned a website, without even looking into the core of the issue.
That page still exists, and it will continue to exist. The people will still draw those stupid pictures. So what did you achieve?
Pakistani’s make up less than 2% of facebook users, so trust me, it’s no loss for the maker of facebook. Plus he doesn’t even endorse any of the groups, the website is based on freedom of speech, which is why they don’t delete any of the groups.
Are you forgetting all the hate groups muslims have made on facebook? They outnumber even the ones non-muslims have made, so stop being so self-righteous for Christ’s sake! Who are you trying to kid?
@Ameeratron : Brother im with you on the fact that banning facebook wont cost anything to Mark Zuckerberg .. YES, i think he will ban it after he see’s that so many accounts are disabled because he doesn’t want his image to be ruined……
These so called Patriotic Muslims , i bet you 9/10 people arguing here for the love of the Holy Prophet didnt even offer ISHA prayer , BUT NO, they will curse girls , they will talk trash and they will think nonsense, BUT THEY LOVE THE HOLY PROPHET SOOO MUCH ….. be the MUSLIM MUHAMMAD WANTED U TO BE ….. BE LIKE HIM, TOLERANT and leave the abusers and think of ur own graves DAMMIT ….cowards i tell you each and everyone of them , talking trash on the internet and i bet you most of them aren’t even following the Quran or the Sunnat of the PROPHET ……
But brother you should keep your calm and not be angry or frustrated as i’ve seen you after your long conversations with these “MUSLIMS”
Banning facebook is no solution because there are hundreds of sites which are holding the similar kind of event. how many can we ban. But banning facebook at least will make others and facebook authorities realize that they have done wrong. religious sentiments of all the users are equal and should be protected and respected. and besides this they will face a heavy financial blow if all the muslim world ban it till May 31.
Wake up MUSLIMS….its ur right to protest. If they can ban minarets and hijabs then we can also ban their websites and also boycot their products. I support the court order and the act of the government of Pakistan.
@farjadpatz…u r rite. many here discussing have not offered their prayers but that dosent mean they have no love and respect for the holy prophet. why we did not recognize our right to say NO to the west. What they do is rite and what we do in response is not rite but lablled as extremism. why.
its a good step that pakistan govt has taken!
BANNING HIJAB , and banning a group is completely different man ….. that act cannot be overshadowed by us banning this group …. what do you think , cant they make the same stuff on twitter ? orkut ? and every other networking site ? they will follow you everywhere you go … you cant go banning all sites because it damages your own economy as well … and i have a full economy report of facebook and how it efficiently deals with ‘over-deactivation’ in result of boycott …. You dont think that a multi billion dollar firm would easily bow down to you by just banning its 2 percent users ?? haha my brother you cannot estimate the magnitude of facebook’s preperations for such events to happen ..
killing innocent children in Palestine is not a crime but if they react on those killings, they are extremists…why..
The west must change this approach now. we are not against west but we want them to know that we r no more an inferior specie or slaves. and they should treat us at power.
@farjadpatz..Muslims users are over 40 percent of the facebook. and if they all boycott it, then it will definately bow down. try to contribute and see the result. if this didnt work then we will talk about other measures.
Brother they wont treat you at power if you just deactivate your accounts …. the only thing we can do to stop all this is to go on a physical protest especially the western muslims … in physical protest i mean they should have rallies and etc. not violence ofc (silly of me to make a suggestive comment like that)
Listen bro , there are many other things muslims SHOULD go on protest for … like for e.g as you pointed out the cruelties in Palestine … but what do we do to show our protest ? we stop accessing a networking site …. brother im with you in the peaceful jihad against discrimination, but the facebook ideology is just plain dumb because you and i both know, the whole muslim ummah is not even slightly united to even deactivate these accounts
Banning facebook is a greater loss to Pakistani’s than to Mark Zuckerberg. People in Pakistan use facebook for almost everything; everyday people use it for social networking, Pakistani celebrities, businesses, restaurants, universities and movies have their own fan pages. Events and revenue is generated through facebook, because it is more convenient and effective than word-of-mouth. People on different sides of the world use it to reconnect on a daily basis.
This is more than simply banning a website because of un-Islamic content. This is changing the way people live. Facebook is irreplaceable, and had become an integral part of millions of Pakistani’s lives.
U r rite farjadpatz. physical protests by western muslims is also important and many of them are already planning that..I am sure.. but my point is that banning facebook is only reflect our resentment. this is a decent way to show others that we did not like their act. may be this all goes unnoticed today but in future we will be getting the fruits of our stance..
Ameeraton@..Pakistanis are alive before facebook. students were studying, people were intracting, companies were marketing..so its not an integral part of our lives.
That’s cause technology hadn’t progressed to the point of facebook. Now it has, and we shouldn’t be moving backwards - we should be moving forwards.
@farjadpatz…we have to take a step. I agree most of us will not deactivate our accouts..but many will. and those many will change in many many and then in millions. only in Pakistan 2 million people uses facebook. its official statistics. i am not joking. and if ten thousand deactivate their accounts due to this it dosent matter in the eyes of people but it does matter to the facebook.
this is bad peopel agin bad talk for prohet mohmmad s.a.w wer pakistan all toghter and facebook is bann this good decsion government of paksitan beacsue wer not accpted for any bad talk for bad people i m proud of i m muslim
Brother Ali , i have to say , after what you’ve posted i now realize that people in this country can actually think logically …. and i agree to you 100% on the fact that we should atleast ’show’ that we disagree to this by this act …. ur comments made me change my opinion which is very difficult to change …. and i know we both agree on what should be done to stop all the discrimination …. JEHAD ……love you man
(brotherly though :D)
BUT , you have to say that we cannot just TOTALLY ‘quit’ facebook . . i mean i know life goes on but these things continue , you cant ban everything out of your life one by one
dear Ameeratron…technology is not possessed by west.. we also know the use of technology and I am sure some genius among us will make a site which will be replaced with facebook. its not a big issue. u will soon have it.
bitch eurepan people and also wer not accpte this kind bad of facbook i m agree bitch and bad who bad do shame shame bitch peoels
But here is my solution to the problem ……. THE GOVERNMENT should UNban facebook , BUT it should urge all the users in Pakistan and other countries to boycott it for this particular while so that facebook ‘realizes’ …. we should make this point as a start to our full jehad and we should show that we wont be suppressed , but government did the wrong thing because u cant do against the communities will … the people who actually deactivate also can make the difference… HOPE brother HOPE
@farjadpatz.. i am glad that u r convinced. Yes I agree with u that we cant totally ban everything out. But we can ensure RESPECT to our religion, our prophet, our countries and ourselves. We are not living in old age. we have to progress and we will Inshallah. my email is pakijournalist@gmail.com. you are welcome to intract with me in person. I work as senior reporter in daily The News, Lahore.
@farjadpatz..I have deactivated facebook before it was banned. and in my office my many colleagues did this. we wrote their the reason too. and i know a lot of other people who did this in similar way. I know we r less but we will increase. Tim e will mature us more.
INSHALLAH brother …. and yea , im a student of A levels , trying to become a good writer as a part timer so i checked out this blog and then got disturbed by the comments of some
hy id agree with u ammerton

with due respect we are 110% satisfied with the courts , their decisions and banning of facebook in pakistan,. though i was a regular user of it but em really feeling comfortable after this ban . because nothing was giving me relief after i saw that event… on “unbiased” facebook..! Allah almighty had set us the rules… how to respect and protect your religion and how to respect others.. i know the writers and colomnists and smart intellectuals , but i also know no one can compete the smartness of the creator Allah..! our menifesto is from above ,proof readen … plz read quran majid ..many doors will be opened to u .!
ughhhh this iss sooo stupiddd seisly facebook works da way u want it to either bad or good.. if people got problems with anything just ignore going to it stay away from it why making such a big deal out ov it n tellin da whole world oo we pakistanis cryin about it..its just gona giv the people satisfaction who started it n make them happyy…thats what they want!! duhh… pakistan is sooo going backward for once man think before you act…soo typical got nothing better to doo but tell the whole world we notice every little thing n creat drama about it cuz we so FaRIG i agree with tEEj…

I would ask only one question to everybody including the writer:
Would you like to help growing an orgnization which is working against your religion.
If true Muslim then ansure should be Yes.
And Mr. Pitafi.. Why your train of BAN just left the track to hit Taliban and Khawaj Sharif. Afghan Taliban under leadership of Mullah Umar were true Muslims who were trained to jihad. No ornidary Muslim can give his life in the way of Allah except those who are firm to Islamic Fundamentals and practical Muslims. They had a right to demand the evidence before handing over the Osama Bin Laden which was never done by the USA
Correction:
Please read my previous message as mentioned below
Would you like to help growing an orgnization which is working against your religion?
If true Muslim then answer should be No.
My 4 yrs son hit the enter before proof reading
You people should stop using websites or social networking sites such as Facebook to promote or mess with someones faith. No1. why do people use such sites to do religions . I can understand people can have free speech or opnion . But be mature as everyone love their reglion and do wanna hear anything about it. whoever designed the “Drawing Contest ” should be ashamed of their acts cause this will create a issue between religions & nations. Why cant you promote peace rather than fighting over religion.
I would say stop making Facebook as a tool to do religlion stuff as non muslims are upset over this too .Cause we need peace and not religion wars throught this drawing contest .
And people who think facebook should be stopped , how about” be the first ones to do so cause ” Charity begins home” Religion is the faith between your God and u . So let religion be kept off online .
and please dnt waste your time by protesting .we pakistani need to save our time for stuff like and create peace rather than protesting .Already pakistan is facing through a tough time where load shedding and business is not going great. Be a good muslim and stop being a casue of War. Peace
You know people, nobody knew about this page as such till most of you started pranting about it. And Why do you have to go and see such,
Has anybody ever reported pages that Muslims have created to spread hatered against well lets see about everyone,
And at this time everyone becomes a true Muslim,rest of the time you can lie,bribe do all the vices that you desire, we have to get out of this God damn superiority complex, akar khatam karoo yaar.
Banning Facebook serves no purpose,except well show the world that we are intolerant fools,
I condemn these acts of Hatred against Muslims but I also condemn hatred against any faith, any cast or anykind of hatred speech,
Tell the world that you will not fall into their trap of hatred, you want to tell people that Islam is moderation Islam is peace, make pages, websites to promote that, show the world through your actions, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) led and inspired by example, do the same, instead of shouting some two bit slogans, kay burn this burn that, down with this,
learn to think, with a cool mind, see the world with eyes unclouded
It is indeed a Wonderful Decision by Pakistani Courts. May ALLAH (S.W.T) bless the ones who have made this decision, ones who have implemented it, ones who have initiated this and ones who are appreciating this as it is not the matter what it will do to the FB management, it is indeed the duty of us to atleast do what we can. Rest May ALLAH (S.W.T) give us Hidayah and strength to get the gustaakh e Rasul (S.A.W) disappear from the face of the earth. (Aameen)
Assalaam Alaikum,
Dear Brothers And Sisters.. My Name Is Shaik Abdullah Shah Alam And I Reside In Hyderabad, INDIA… I am So Displeased With Facebook Because Till Now I Was Enjoying It SO Much… The ContestThey Started IS A Total Anti-Islamic Movement… But I Am More Upset With The Way MAny Of The Muslims On This Forum Replied.. They Are Actually In Favour Of Facebook… They Should BE Ashamed… They Are Saying It As Logic. What The Fuck Do They All Mean.. I Wanna Ask Them A Simple Question. What Do We Usually Do On Facebook???
Let Me Answer From My Side… I Login At Facebook…. First Of All See Who Is Available For Chat.. Only Girls… I Chat With Them… Especially Muslims from KSA, Pakistan, India, Indonesia… I Even Have Video Chat With Some Of Them.. Some Of The GIrls Even Send There Pics…. Then I Play Mafia Wars.. I Love That Game…. I L<eave Everythin g SOmetiomes Even Delay Namaz While Playing It…. This Is The Truth How I Waste My Time.. Dont You Think I am Enjoyimg Every Bit Of It..Yes I Do.. But Nothing IS Even Near To Comparison When It Comes To Our Beloved Prophet Muhammed (SAW),….. I Have DeActivated My Account And I Really Do not Think That I Will Ever Use Facebook Again…
The Fact Is Internet Is More Hazardous Than Being Advantageous… I Bet 95 Percent Of The Muslims Including Girls, Watch Porn.. So Tell Me What IS Best Go And Leave In Caves Or Ban Everything That Is Anti-Islamic … How Many Of You Ever Opened A site Regarding ISLAM And Its Benefits, Sites Regarding Hadiths Of Prophet Muhammed (SAW)… Leave That How MAny Of You Read 5 Times Namaz, Read Quran Daily, Read And Understand Hadith And Imply It In Your Life…
If You Are Still Angry That This Is Rubbish Then I ASk Those Who Got My Point To Pray For You Namesake Muslims…May Allah Give You Enopugh Sense So As To Differ Yourself From Right And Wrong!!!!
Allahhafiz!!!!
@Mysticman said: Come on first thing is that if some 1 do lie, take bribe, or any other sin that is not comparable to this. That’s ones personal faith. It is integral part of our religion that we shall guard the honor of the greatest man on the face of this earth (S.A.W). Moreover even if you don’t think that religion and this thing is dat important (Nauuzubillah) then it’s a court’s decision, why don’t you go to court today and appeal against it straight away. Fact is that it is in our nature to oppose each other and that’s what you are doing. Else the weakest thing we can do is to get away from this page and keep our Pakistani Muslims brothers and sisters away from this fitnah as much as possible.
and also i forgot to say what i am doing is freedom of speach as per you…… so deal with it bladdy dimbo
m totally wid ameeraton and nedved
Thnxs For Your Suport Rahul.. If A Non-Muslim Can understand I Wonder How Much Deep Some Of The MUSLIMS who Are In Favour Of Facebook Are In Their NAFS!!!!!
Quite right, Pakistan. This is where your efforts should be focused. What could be more pressing than the boycott of Facebook? There is certainly nothing else of note for your nation to take of.
The feelings of a dead self-proclaimed prophet are far more important than the safety of your own people, terrorised by the Taliban, acting as they are, in the name of the dead self-proclaimed prophet.
How right that the safety of your own people should be so unimportant to you. And yet, the West must be made aware of all of her trangressions against the Islamic peoples since the times of the crusades.
How right that the safety of people all over the World should be so unimportant that you not only allow, but encourage the flourishing of madrassars, or “terrorist training camps” as we call them in English, not only for your own uneducated masses, but also for the witless followers of your faith around the World.
How could they be important in the face of the threat of Facebook.
@Khan, you dimwit I’m not Indian, I’m Pakistani. I guess it’s a shock actually finding someone who’s evolved a brain in this god-forsaken country, eh? And I’ve lived here my whole life, so don’t go calling me an American or Jewish spy either. -___-
Why don’t we block youtube too, cause it has a slew of anti-islamic videos. In fact, lets block the entire internet. And television, cause all those women with their heads uncovered are SO against our religion. While we’re at it, lets all move into caves and spend our days reading the Quran and judging other people.
Grow up, you gormless fools.
@Luketer, well said. After all, lets just ignore the fact that this country is going through crisis after crisis, and that people don’t have water, food, electricity, homes and to top it all you have bearded militants blowing themselves up left right and center.
Nooo, that’s all unimportant. Ban facebook; that should be priority number 1.
Take a look at this. It’s a list of businesses that have been affected because of the ban.
http://pakistan.wikia.com/wiki/Internet_censorship#Press_Coverage
Idiots! Just because of your own religious insecurities, you’re ruining so much.
@Ammeratron and Luketer: Well Animals even have feelings for their creator but you guys dont have. May ALLAH (S.W.T) shows you the right path.
2ndly this life is nothing as compared to life hereafter so for me to sacrifice everything in this world in order to obey 1 order of my creator is far more a benificial deed to do. rest if you dont want to listen the words of your creator, thats your decision.
@Ameeratron & Luketer: If you guys have even a little of moral courage and you think you have brains then why dont you go to the courts straight away and challenge it. Infact you have nothing to do just sitting and typing. Actually you are used to of doing bullshit typing at FB, its not there now and you r taking ur anger out here.
Naf….hv u ever browsed the net for free porn ?? be honest I won’t judge you
i am not answerable to you for this…..and i am taking care Alhamdulilah to whom i am answerable.

@GROW UP GUYS: Yeh light and dark is there but the speciality and duty of UMMAH of Rasul (S.A.W) is “Amr bil maaroof and nahi unil munkir”.
Its not only that we ignore it, we have to prevent our muslim brothers and sisters from this Fitnah inshaa’ ALLAH.

May ALLAH (S.W.T) give us strength of Eeman to cope up with all these enemies of Islaam (Aameen)
Almost everything in Pakistan is imported from non-muslim countries, including clothes and food. Many ideas are also taken from there. So if you guys are so against ‘non islamic forces’ then why don’t you go back to caves? Cause electricity, running water, televisions and so many other inventions that you use all the bloody time (including the internet!) are non-islamic creations.
Go back to your caves, and let the enlightened people stay and use them. Because after all, doesn’t your holy book say that you should peacefully co-exist with people, even if their views differ from yours?
Hey Hippocrates like Hasham/Naf/Taar…read this and then for more , read the whole article…I’ve given u the link..
A video showing Pakistani soldiers beating civilians in the Swat Valley is also unavailable in Pakistan. Pornography, however, is widely available. According to Google, the mostly widely searched word in Pakistan is “sex”, followed by “education”. Pakistan has about 20 million internet users in a population of 170 million people.

@Ameeratron: You are at the verge of banging your head in the wall….i can see your miserable condition. keep on saying it…..just vague points.
keep on yeah as you can just speak not a practical person.
i think this shud had happened earlier when they….. posted some other pages ….i know facebook just wants to outrage muslims…. and the girls mostly think this is wrong…. u gulz shud nt b pakistani…if u r saying where this country is going….i think its pretty much in righter direction if u call ur self muslim…. u shud be concerned abt this issue….for u people facebook is more important than ur prophet think abt it….
the prophet which prayed for his umaah day and night and had to bear torture just for u people and u say this ban is not right …. how come u say that….
According to ahadith u cant be a muslim until or unless u love God and his prophet(P.B.U.H) more than anything else….
u will say this guy is a extremist…. well if u think so then u r extreme non beleiver….
vagabondmalik….the same prophet who married a 7 year old girl ? I mean really…
vagabondmalik….and I’ve not even started with the “extremist” part but thanks for the suggestion…watch out for my next post
Hahaha. When you make a valid point you guys call me an unbeliever and an impractical person.
Naf, you’re a moron. You’re all morons. What I said makes a lot of sense, you just need to have double digit IQ’s to be able to understand it.
My question remains. If you’re so against non-muslim things then why don’t you go live in caves? Cause the things you use everyday are made by non-muslims.
why the hell are you posting in stuff sitting in front ov ur bloody computers ,which itslf is a non-muslim invention ???????????/
go throw ur computers …..
Muslims have murdered other Muslims in order to protest cartoons…I guess morons in pakistan have reached a new high…
u guyz which term ur self as “enlightened” like Musharaf…u shud think abt it….. and u think u r saying some thing very modern and outstanding…. quaid-e-azam was also enlightened….. he said u people of pakistan can’t live unless u people follow Islam very well.Islam is the only binding force b/w you…u r the people who actually want this country back in the caves,,,and u r saying we shud nt take it personal…. one day wen u ll be attacked by a drone,,, then u ll come to know why we were so much concerned abt this issue….
No, you idiot. Quaid E Azam wanted Pakistan to be a secular state, where government and religion didn’t mix - where people could practice any religion they wanted to and live in harmony. Then Zia became president and fucked every thing up.
You still haven’t answered my question. If you hate non-muslims so much, why don’t you go live in a cave and stop using their inventions?
vagabondmalik…what an Idiot u r…do not go off topic…or ts just that u don’t understand “flow of conversation” …
Ameeratron…give it up man…vagabondmalik’s got his undies in a twist already….
They can’t answer a simple question, because their own views are contradictory. It’s like they’re following a whole other religion.
Come on people, can’t you hold an intelligent discussion? Not even you, Nas? You wouldn’t shut up earlier, why so quiet?
Hey they’ve also banned youtube….hahaha what a joke…what next ban IE or mozilla firefox and whilst yr at it ban microsoft XP and office too..here’s a great business Idea in pakistan….start selling typewriters….:-)
They should also ban cars, and electricity.
Quaid E Azam was not secular, If he were he would have made pakistan another Turkey, that he never did. Also I can’t think of any connection between Kh Sharif and Taliban, he sentenced a Thug, since when is this wrong?
Also Hamid Mir is very experienced and professional journalist, he has interviewed the Top Leader ship of Taliban and Al-Qaida, he is not naive about his phone calls being recorded or about double crosses, he is better then the person who calls any one and start talking about things, even when he knows his calls are being recorded.
Also I think that the aether is full of S_-T, and I ve a NEWS for him: Yes, sorry you can never be a real journalist stop pretending being one.
We have some basic Faiths and Believes and we should see the world, interact with the world in their perspective. People should respect us and our religious figures, if some one doesn’t respect us why should we even interact with them.
@Ameeratron: well no use to debate with you as your foolish. yeah if you tell me which religion you follow then mite i think u r upto mark to discuss with else go n dive in your shit as you doin.
Up to mark? You’re the one who keeps babbling like a complete idiot. The internet was made by non-muslims, so why don’t you stop using it? Get off the internet, and spend your days with your head buried in the Quran. Won’t that make Allah happy?
Naf…I don’t know ameeratron’s “religion”…I follow the religion of humanity….thou shalt not kill and thou shall tolerate….which ever god or prophet you believe doesn’t nee you to defend him unless that god/prophet is insecure as hell…is yr God/Prophet insecure Naf ? and by the way there are no infidels…everyone/everything is a creation of God
Naf…I don’t know ameeratron’s “religion”…I follow the religion of humanity….thou shalt not kill and thou shall tolerate….which ever god or prophet you believe doesn’t need you to defend him unless that god/prophet is insecure as hell…is yr God/Prophet insecure Naf ? and by the way there are no infidels… Everyone/everything is a creation of God..makes any sense to you Naf ????
dear all, we made it through unity. united we stand ,divided we fall.I am so happy about the ban that I will let anyone say anything they want.
Before this we caused billion dollar loss to Danish products just by boycotting their products and now this:)
foxane….really ? how much of danish milk do u drink for breakfast ? or how much danish cheese did u consume today…talk is cheap….the biggest importer of danish products is europe china and the middle east…those exports are strong…stop talkin thru yr a$$
haha What a joke Luketer and ameeratron.. why ru soo foolish man, its not necessary that if I am avoiding Butter to keep myself away from being fettish then I may start to avoid eating anything and stay starved all he time, why ru you fools comparing ban of facebook with starting to avoid internet and microsoft etc… its is not necessary, we are aginst the anti-Islamic group created on Facebook, while we have never created such groups against your religion,we keep on protesting but Facebook authorities didnt take any notice, so banning Facebook for few days in Pakistan will result a great loss for Facebook, then they will surely never allow such morons to joke against Islam or any other religion as all religions are respectable, and those who are saying that it will not cause any loss to Facebook are just stupid, Facebook earns $1 when a single person sings in from any country.
ok….this our matter and we can coup with it….we r happy with facebook banned in pakistan…u dont need to worry abt us…..
You illiterate idiots just keep showing your ignorance and hatred. As I’ve specified countless times before, I’m Pakistani.
When you realise that you morons are in the wrong, you just start calling other people Indians and Jews. Grow up, for the sake of this country. And learn to spell, you idiot!
who cares Khan but read his posts and u’d realise he makes a whole load of sense so u make him out to be Indian…which means anyone speakin sense is Indian ??? choose yr words well wiseboy…
Facebook should be banned in Pakistan. The site has hurted our feelings.

We should all deactivate our accounts of bloody facebook.
@Ameeratron: I guess you need to correct your record and history. It were you immoral and savage europeans who were living in caves while muslims were conquering your arses on hourly basis. Also, when your so called crusades were torned to a historic shame by people like Saladin. And also, all the inventions that ’so called” you have invented and discovered have originated from muslim scholars and scientists.
if you want to use facebook go ahead and do that who is stopping you?? we dont want to use it so leave us alone. We have never questioned that every 3rd person in the ADVANCED and MODERN west is an illegitamte (bastard in other words) and you are fine with it…deal with it.

@Tahir, resort to violence. That’s all scum like you are good at, and it’s why this country is in the state it’s in. You can’t debate anything intelligently, and when you’re at a loss for words you just label the other person a ‘Hindu’ or ‘Jew’.
This country is truly going to the dogs.
if dont want ot live this country…just leave it…simple as that….
I cannot believe you’re cursing at the guy who posted the blog simply because his views differ from yours. Not everyone is a mindless slave of the system. Some of us have the ability to think rationally, too.
people like u always try to find bad out of gud….but always are disappointed
I doubt they even know what artificial insemination is.
vagabondmalik…did u brush yr teeth today ? u seem to be spewin a whole load of crappy-yappy…try a new mouthwash…
Im sure they are busy googlin it…Vagabond/Tahir Fu$k google ask me
…just wanted to say this…sounded goood
Folks, I am open to your comments and even insults. But if you claim to represent the Prophet of Islam, the most tolerant Prophet of all times, then you should at least try to behave. Nowhere have I said that drawing caricatures or being insensitive to Islam or any faith is good. All I am saying is that this is the wrong way to protest, and also by allowing the government to ban the new technologies you are giving it a weapon to exploit you further in the future, even when you dont want it to happen. Do you think insulting me will make you good Muslims?
And by the way it seems most of these messages are generated by some wested groups who want to introduce their own products in place of these technologies. If you are no such group then at least talk reason and at least try to behave the way your Prophet would have. I am not the blasphemer here.
Why Pakistani fight with each other with bad mouth? they cannot do anything for the rights!
Amen to that Mr Farrukh Khan Pitafi …u have won my total respect….but hey then people let facts come into the way of a good story u know..
A Simple Answer: A group of people justified it is bad and they got it banned, any body differ from it go to court and submit a petition. You are talking about your rights and bla bla but what you are doing practically for it. the ones filled with eemaan have done it without asking anybody. if you think that its cruelty with you why not even a single go to court and do something rather than giving excuses here.
show some seriousness and do if you can.
hahahaha :@
u r jurke pakistan is always rite do u get that..!
what ever pakistan is doing its rite and facebook must b band in pakistan for ever..!
i request to P.T.A to band this web site facebook in pakistan for ever..!
naf…how come u never make any sense…am tryin my best to re-read yr comments but alas u come across as a bit unsmart…but hey thats yr freedom to express and you shall have it at all cost so who am I to judge
@Luketer: thats why i gave advice to ammeratron and giving to you as well….go wash your face….come upto the mark and then talk to me……but you can never come upto the mark till the time you will embrace Islam (The perfect Deen)
@ All Non Muslims: Islam is the perfoct code of life. dont say bad by watching it. try it and then your ideas will be change trust me.
Come to the truth, Embrace Islam.
guys this is so ridiculous …. NOW I CANT WATCH QURANIC RECITATIONS OR PEACE TV CLIPS ON YOUTUBE ASWELL :@ ??? i mean come ON pakistan ….. i didnt even know of the group “Draw Muhammad Day” (Nauzubillah) , until some anti group of that Posted links ….. i bet you that creator of the group is feeling so important right now that he made buffoons out of this country ….. i bet he is laughing his butt off …. but no , we dont even follow the command of the Prophet to pray 5 times and NOT ABUSE YOUR BROTHER, but we are banning facebook to show our love , HYPOCRITES all of them who curse and abuse and say that they love the holy Prophet (PBUH) , the most tolerant man in the history of mankind …. SHAME on you guys
@Naf: I though the Quran tells you to not be arrogant? At least follow your own book properly before preaching to others.
Naf…Its ok…i’ll stick to bein an “infidel”..find me if u can…
ya…. Facebook should be blocked forever. We r not gna die without it.
Freedom of speech does not give you the right to shout fire in a movie theater. Freedom comes with responsibility. If this is freedom of speech why does talking about Holocaust is a crime ??
Are we allowed to make a similar fan page on FB regarding Holocaust?
Why are western countries bent on making anti-islamic and muslim bashing laws? Isnt those against the basic human rights?
There is no internet connection in grave, my dear Islamic fellows, one has to leave every thing one day only our deeds are to go with us. Please think about the afterlife too.
I used to spend hours and hours on fb, its hard for me but now i think its good i m not wasting my time anymore, even if FB is ublocked i m going to deactivate my account.
Furthermore the ban should have come from the govt first, not the high court.
Allah Huma Salay Alan Nabi el Ummi Wa SalalahAh o Aleh Wasalam
@Ameeratron: Well i am not at all arrogant by what i have in myself. But yeah Muslim Ummah is the best UMMAH of the universe and i am proud not for my own qualities but for what i follow.
i am a very inferior creature of my creator (S.W.T) what makes me special is my Deen. A muslim is very precious thats why in battle of badr 313 defeated a huge lot of Kuffaar why???they had Eemaan in their hearts.
These non muslims are smart in this thing they know even 1 group of Muslims get their Eemaan true on ALLAH (S.W>T) they are enough to rule the whole world thats why you see they are desperately attacking Muslim community now a days.
I feel sorry for them as their time is near inshaa’ ALLAH.
KAMAL!
Why don’t u change ur religion if ulike those who insult Our Prophet(pbuh)
Lucky….u know why ? its because u guys fall for it..head and feet both…and it gives great pleasure when u can take the piss and you take the bait whole like & sink…got it ? thats where the fun’s at…and then u have this Naf guy…isn’t it not entertaining to piss them off…just read his comments and u’ll realise its makes for great laughter…and laughs are real good…makes sense to you Lucky ? by the way I liked the singer Lucky Ali
@Luketer: copy and paste any comment of mine where i call you by hatered names???? do it am waiting
its a good decision taken by PTA.. May ALLAH give them Ajar-e-Azeem.
but very sad……….where is our media? Geo, AAJ, Express, Dunya, Sama, ETC
where is Dr. Shahid Masood, Kamran Khan, Hamid Mir, Talat, Asma Shirazi, Kashif, many more host………….
where is our leaders………… Zardari, Gilani, Altaf Hussain, Nawaz Sharif, Imran ????
rn’t they muslim?
is it not their duty to protest against this big sin.?
do they sold their EEman??
VERY SAD
Facebook ke sath iss media, polititions, pe bhi hamesha ke liye banned laga do, kisi kaam ka nahi jo media itni AZEEM Hasti ki gustakhi karne walo ko malamat na kare unka boycott na kare wo media, wo leader, wo siyasi party kafiro ke agent hain..
Ab ALLAH ke azab ko dawat di ja rahi hai………..
wait and see….
Lucky… keep on readin Naf….I’m skippin work but it feels great antagonizing him cause it makes my day…so there are a whole lot of folks around the globe who find this entertaining…once u stop caring everything else falls in place…but how do I convince you when I’m the “khuffar” >??? man I had fun today
@ Luketer:
Lolzzzz you will know it very Soon. when ALLAH (S.W.T) catch, its very strict. Life is very short look around you and open your eyes. Its time. Get a life, Get to Islam. (The true Deen)
and yeah am still waiting you post that comment of mine where i adress you with hatered name…. you wont find it as my deen is the religion of peace and it teaches me to respect the humanity. thats why as a human being i do respect you. But when it comes to the dishonor of any Islamic leader, i will do what i can inshaa, ALLAH.
Naf…here u go smartass…half your posts you speak about war and victory over non believers..why r u different from a extremist ?
==============
A muslim is very precious thats why in battle of badr 313 defeated a huge lot of Kuffaar
well no use to debate with you as your foolish
well no use to debate with you as your foolish. yeah if you tell me which religion you follow then mite i think u r upto mark to discuss with else go n dive in your shit as you doin.
You are at the verge of banging your head in the wall….i can see your miserable condition. keep on saying it…..just vague points.
keep on yeah as you can just speak not a practical person.
Kamal!!!!
Why don’t u change ur religion if u like those who insult Our Prophet(pbuh). You r not a true muslim even you can’t be true Jew who grows to anger when someone speak something insulting about holocaust. If someone make a naked or disrespectful sketch of your Mom, Dad or sister still u will consider it as a freedom of speech??? If u keep silent do u really feel that u love them ??? No! You don’t!!
Let me remind u a verse from Quran
O People who Believe! Do not raise your voices higher than the voice of the Prophet, nor speak to him loudly the way you shout to one another, lest your deeds become worthless whilst you are unaware. (Quran, 49:2)
Hazrat Muhammad(PBUH) said
“None of you becomes a believer until I am dearer to him than his children, his parents and all mankind.” (Bukhari and Muslim)
We love Him(pbuh) and if someone call us backward for this we don’t care such rubbish people
Luketer…..All religions r respectable, and all religious figure are too. Islam preaches us to respect other religions.
You know the real problem is that very few people actually practice Islam in its true sense. If u meet someone who is on the righteous path you will get impressed by urself, no preaching is needed. Islam is all about character.
@ Luketer:I will suggest go and read the Quraan at least and decide by your self what is true. dont look at me and dont decide the grace , truthfulness and beauty of Deen this way. Go and read Quraan and inshaa’ ALLAH you will find answers to your questions and there are chances that you get lucky enough to become a Muslim.
If an ordinary person exclaims “I don’t believe in the extremism protrayed by jews on the issue of holocaust”, all the jewish and american communities will start blabbing “How dare you hurt our feelings?” And to the most, they even arrest you for mentioning anything in favor of Holocaust or Hitler and Nazis (especially wearing a Swastika). Come on, numbskulls, don;t WE even have a right for your so-called “Freedom Of Speech”???
If you som much and so believe in Freedom of Speech, for which you proudly say “There is something called Freedom of Speech”, then I use this freedom and say “Hail Hitler, Hail Nazis and We Want Another Holocaust Against Jews! Burn Them Alive, Skin Them Alive”!!
Freedom Of Speech, mates, hope you aint triggered here.
Grow Up filthy americans, please please Grow Up and visualize the thin line between Freedom and Respect!!!!
ou have Freedom of Speech, will you call your Mother a “bitch”, or your father a “hog”??? Doesn’t there fall a line of Respect also??? GROW UP, LITTLE TYKES!!! Freedom of Speech, hah!!!
Naf….enuff said…u can stay enlightened in yr dark cave…I gotta get work done but I hv to admit whole heartedly that I have been entertained…on a serious note ,hv u tried stand up ?
@Luketer: What is hatered name there. yeah the Holy battle of Badr is a truly miracle of Islam when lots of non believers (Kuffar) were attacking and only 313 got them defeated you tell me any of such victory in your religion.
secondly i said fool yes i did. its not abuse firstly foll is the one who know but still dont know. you know the value, beauty, truthfullness of islam and above all you have a chance to become muslim but you want your destruction and your fate is not allowing you to do so that is foolishness and nothing else.
@ ameeratron…… or u dumb or stupid…..
BBC has reported a loss of 2.0 billion euros in 2 days for the face book. if the face book authorities can not respect our religious beliefs then we should hit them where it hurts….. just hold on for a couple of days and this mounting loss will bring the facebook authorities on the knees….
as far as other islamic states are concerned, they should block it well….. their not doing the right thing does not justify for us to act wrong as well.
i think one of the best decisions ever….
y r we banning facebook y cant we just delete those gruops and links which r agianst aur relighion
its not that i dont respect my religion i agrre with thae goverment order and i rwspect it bt y bannijng facebook then there shoul be a alternative of this too
How can any muslim bear the insult of Hazrat Muhammad(pbuh)whose followers we r?
No true muslim can bear on the name of modernization and freedom of speech which religion give permission to abuse and insult the sacred personalities of any religion?
If any sacred Scripture do not give such kind of permission then how can it is bearable for the follower of any religion to bear such kind of insult against any personality of respective religion
i am surprised at what u wrote what is the criteria of naiki and badi for u?
Are u a Atheist ? I am asking that because it seems so
hmmmmm,i kinda miss fb i dunt knw wether dey did the ryt thin by bannin….i think its qutie…ryt!
@ Luketer: I Invite you to the Most Perfect, Most Beautiful, Most Logical, Most honourable and most peaceful religion of Islam. Come out of the darkness and look around you and find the signs of the blessings of ALLAH (S.W.T). give it a try. study Quraan by being neutral and decide it by yourself.
without tasting it how you can say its sweet or else.
so Come to Islam.
May ALLAH (S.W.T) guide you to the right path.
I appologize if i have even i single comment to hurt your feelings as my religion does not teach and permit me to do so.
also may ALLAH (S.W.T) forgive me if i have said any thing wrong and also if i can not give you message of ALLAH (S.W.T) and Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) in the way it needs to be.

Hello Everyone.
Please go through The Holy Prophets’ hadith meaning.”You are not true muslim untill and unless i m dearer to you than your parents children ….”May Allah forgive for the addition or substraction in tha hadith meaning.
Please think is facebook more important tha our Prophets’s honor.If somebody make our fathers and mothers cartoons with bikins.Will you tolerate?Answer is definitely No.Then please leave this so Called Westernism and behave like true muslims.
@Sunny Musani: you are right Brother.
@Sister Komal: Mashaa’ALLAH nice views. May ALLAH S.W.T bless you for your love for the greatest man prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) ever existed on the face of the earth
Decision by LHC hailed!
See, its simple. You can’t blame facebook because a user generated content offends you on their website. But when a website has certain TOS and it violates its own TOS, that website is an insult to rules and regulations. We joined facebook with a trust on them considering it a responsible website. We never knew that their prejudice will reach to an extent that they will delete any other page violating their TOS within hours and they won’t do it when a page is reported by 2 million users. I feel sorry for facebook for losing its standards. Moreover, being an Internet Marketer, I was generating quite much on it but I care least now since ISLAM is the one that keeps us all united and we can compromise anything for our religion. Now lets wait and see if facebook can be on the same standards again otherwise sign up at myspace and import all you contacts from you address book at hotmail yahoo or gmail or any other mailing server. YOU ARE LAMENTING..HOW WILL I KEEP IN TOUCH WITH MY FRIENDS! WORST EXCUSE, GO JOIN MYSPACE, ITS SAME AS FACEBOOK I DON’T THINK YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHICH SITE IS NO 1 AND WHICH IS NO 2 AND WHICH HAS THE MOST NUMBER OF USERS SINCE YOU ARE NOT RUNNING A BUSINESS ON FACEBOOK. AND EVEN IF YOU ARE, CHEER UP, MY SPACE IS FAR LESS COMPETITIVE AND FAR MORE PROFITABLE NOW. Even then if you want facebook, use a proxy and satisfy yourself. We condemn facebook for being IRRESPONSIBLE AND BIASED, SHAME ON THE ADMINS OF THE BIGGEST SOCIAL NETWORKING SITE for being this cheap and for having such low standards DONT TALK ABOUT RULES WHEN YOU YOURSELF HAVE BROKEN THEM.
yess we wer livin before it but now its sumthing were used too its kinda hard to let go ov sumthing u start to depend on soo much… we wer living without cellfones before ryt..buh m sho u wudnt let it goo if ur humANN dat iss..lol,,n then tv we use it cus its der for us buh den agn it depends on how u use itt good or bad thats totaly upto u depends wat kind ov person u are… but realyy now that theyv band it n we got nuthin we can doo its bettr to think on the bright side lyk yess its not that bad afterr all we can b stronggg..:) n well prayy everything gets better after all the no fb suffering n we get to use it soon … and yeahh true it is kinda true we shudnt sit quite wen ppl messin about with our religion.. insulting our leader the greatest person its lyk we letting dem ppl insult our existence..they shud fuck off were not that weakk..buh i just think der cudv been a better solution then just banning it n bein happy…dat in my opinion is crazii n im bored to death evn tho heads off to pakii goverment i guess ima doo better in my last two exams :D…n LUCKY i amm soo gona get dsl put in my grave
There might be better solutions but ban on a website by a court is the biggest punishment we can give a site for violating its TOS and disturbing its users.
Is Facebook more Important than our Prophet ?
Facebook is just trash ! FACEBOOK = F*** Book
Facebook should me ban forever in whole world !
Jews are just like ants against Muslims :@
emmm surreeee lyk its gona doo great loss rytt??? pakistan has band fb ..nyc job the whole world is still usin itt wat cud possibly be the diffrence wen pakistan disapears from between… i dun think its that badd… there shud be better ways to fyt
why you people die on facebook ? what is in it ?
there are many other social websites ! orkut , twitter etc join them ! If you think LHC has done any’ing wrong by banning them ! go in supreme court !
Hi, I have read every comments above, I HAVE ONLY ONE QUESTION TO AUDIENCE
HOW MUCH YOU KNOW ABOUT PROPHET MOHAMMED P.B.U.H?
HIS THOUGHTS?
HIS TEACHING?
HIS ATTITUDE?
HIS RESPONSE?
HOW MUCH??? JUST THINK AND IF YOU KNOW MUCH THEN YOU WILL NEVER THINK TO SUPPORT FREEDOM OF WRITING(such freedom where muslims are not permitted to present their views WOW!).
No one is Islamic Thekedar. But when you guys come to know about the love with our Beloved PROPHET MOHAMMED P.B.U.H, you will judge your self what you have to do?
If you think that you are not agreed to sacrifice any thing (MONEY, JOB, STATUS, GIRLS, CARS, MEHALS, HOUSES, PARENTS, any thing…) then there is no difference between you and others(Christine, Jews), because they also have believe in Allah and PROPHET MOHAMMED P.B.U.H, but they do not respect them and their teachings.
I hope that I some how explain the neutral phase for a Muslim. Please THINK ON THIS!!!
HOW MUCH YOU KNOW ABOUT PROPHET MOHAMMED P.B.U.H???
Hey Naf…I listened to all what u had to say and I listened to it even tho u used words that aren’t english and ununderstandable…now u listen and I’ve made it simple for you to understand…and simple to follow too…
============
Also read the teahings of Jesus (the true saviour) just do not dwell on the prophet who honestly doesn’t seem to be having the best of ethics especially when it comes to women and his own marriage (if u know what i mean)…so it may make u look at the larger picture….God sent his only son to die for our sins….don’t send yr sons to die for yr prophet…blood has already been spilt…no need for more….Jesus also teaches tolerance….turn the other cheek….God can defend himself and us…he doesn’t want you to fight for him…he is not as needy as u think he is….just calm down people….Jesus saves…ALWAYS…
shame on those who r saying that f.b should not be banned forever…….this is a muslim…………
ban f.b forever………..
sohail abbasi……FB wants to personally thank the pakist’s for the publicity you’ll have provided…their shares have sky rocketed and their subscriptions doubled…u see any kind of publicity is good publicity…..agree ?
Its such an idiotic step!
The topic is somewhat agreeable, I mean everyone has the right to choose that is what this world is all about. It is a logical option to let every person decide how to react on any issue rather than some Foolish, out dated and in ethical order(like banning one of the most resourceful site as facebook the biggest social networking site in the world). Man what does these foolish illiterates sitting on LHC and around Pakistan trying to prevent the muslims form using the Face book want bringing our country to stone age. Pathetic fools, dont they know that we can bravely close our eyes to all these pages where our beliefs are dis graced and enjoy the rest of the site for the sake of improvement which can only help in this world. surely nohting is important than the Mighty power of internet
Well All in the favor of facebook, do remember that the it is the kalma of same Prophet (PBUH) that makes us what we are,Muslims(if you remember correctely) the same Prophet said the one can never be a true momin unless one has more love in heart for Allah and his Prophet(PBUH) than anything in the whole universe and Allah Almighty Narrated in The Holy Quran That We should accept all that his Beloved Prophet gives to us and refrain from all he forbids.
Believing this, I am certain that by supporting such blasphemous event, Face book has surely prove its hatred for Islam any enemy of Islam is my enemy. And by siding with facebook we are becoming enemy of Islam which is utterly unaffordable. Againt Almighty Allah and His Holy Prophet(PBUH)nothing is more important even Face book.
By Banning such Sites we may not accomplish any thing, or make any differences, but on the day of judgment we can stand proud that we are among those who fought for the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and Islam even if it valued very little.
Moreover if in the past no government has performed any efforts against such incident, if currently it is being done, why not see it positively for a change and help by bringing all such sites to the front and prevent the manipulation of our fellow Muslims. Why encouraging them to disgrace our Heroes for their personal pleasures. By doing nothing, we will only encourage them to humiliate Islam and its preachings(Which I believe are the most important things in my life)
The decision is yours, you have to chose your own path. So choose wisely
THanks for your time
to my fellow muslims
Please refrain from using abusive language, atleast in topics related to Islam as it strongly forbids it
Thanks
@Luketer: Jesus was a prophet of ALLAH (S.W.T) and i have a belief on him as a prophet. His all teachings were the messages of ALLAH (S.W.T). you followers even didnt let his teachings be in true form rather from time to time you have changed the same for your ur own causes. rest if some1 will say bad about Jesus (A.S) i will condemn that and will do whatever i can do for the honor of him as my religion Islam teach me the same.
2ndly you guys talk logic alot tell me logically is it possible that he has sacrificed himself and now you do whatever you want to do as you are saved. logically even 1000 people do a crime and 1 person take its responsibility still the best thing for them can be that there sin get forgiven but did you ever hear that their lifetime sins are also forgiven for this.
moreover GOD is the creator he never born nor HE give birth as all of the properties of ALLAH (S.W.T) are unique. Imagine a God lords of heavens and earth possessing the properties of Human (Astaghfirullah)
GOD is the one creator of this whole universe. he never got born and never gave birth to any 1. He is master of the universesssss all alone and jesus (A.S) was just a pious man and messenger of God..
GOOD GOOD please Permanently ban that page in Pakistan and save the time.. Addiction
Shahji Toseef
does being a muslim means covering your eyes and ears and running away from everything? as far as i remember abstinence was the biggest trait of a muslim. but what is the point if we ban everything and make it convenient for ourself. we dont let anyone eat infront of us in ramadan during fast. where is the trial then?
i am a freelance photographer. i have been using facebook to communicate with my family and share pictures and videos of mine and theirs everyday lives that we miss out on.
i also use it to communicate with my clients, show them samples, even to deliver the final pictures sometimes.
i have seen the page that is being mentioned and it indeed is quiet offensive to me and definately would be to any muslim.
but that page was created by an individual and not by facebook. i reported that page for having racist and haterd spreading material and it was taken off but sadly another one was created right afterwards.
my point is that by banning facebook that person is not loosing anything. those pages are still there and so are their members.
but on the other hand i and allot of people like me who do their networking via facebook are suffering great losses.
@hakg: Well if you are working in an office you have to work as per its rules and regulation. It is an Islamic state and if there is any decision you have to follow it else you may go away from here.
When west disallow the construction of minarets on Masjid is that good?
When france says women cant wear Hijab is that good?
Muslims over there are living as per the rules of state right so decision of court is to ban it so banned.
If you have any issue go to court or go abroad….it is a collective beneficial thing and due to few people like you we cant compromise on this brutal act of FB & company etc
pakistan has taken da right decision itx time to show unity and our love towards r religion .. ! they should ban facebook for ever so that they can suffer high losses!! there r many other ways to communicate to your frnd families and relatives !!
@Sister Sana: May ALLAH pak bless you for this and May ALLAH (S.W.T) fill our hearts with the love of ALLAH (S.W.T) and Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) and May ALLAH (S.W.T) show us the right path. (Aameen)
Hey Nuf…I really don’t understand most of what u write but for the sake of arguement I’d like to ask you one thing….why do u think that your knowledge of Islam is better than my understanding of christ ? I’d like to stick to love and peace….maybe yr translation from a foreign language has deluded yr understanding of Islam so u r up in arms to protect something u don’t even understand ?
Nuf…another thing….u seem to so care of P Mohammed that you forget that he was just human and that there was a God that would judge him ? He was just flesh n blood like you & me…he didn’t resurrect from the dead and he will not come to judge you at the end of times so most of what u preach about him is irrelevant…again I tell u Jesus will come at the end of times to Judge the living and the dead…Its even written in your Quoran…isn’t it ?
@Luketer:Read below the reference from Bible (Although not in pure form) but evidence from the book you follow:::::
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the Old Testament:
The Qur’an mentions in Surah Al-Araf chapter 7 verse 157:
“Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (scriptures) in the law and the Gospel”.
1.
MUHAMMAD (PBUH) PROPHESISED IN THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY:
Almighty God speaks to Moses in Book of Deuteronomy chapter 18 verse 18:
“I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and I will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.”
The Christians say that this prophecy refers to Jesus (pbuh) because Jesus (pbuh) was like Moses (pbuh). Moses (pbuh) was a Jew, as well as Jesus (pbuh) was a Jew. Moses (pbuh) was a Prophet and Jesus (pbuh) was also a Prophet.
If these two are the only criteria for this prophecy to be fulfilled, then all the Prophets of the Bible who came after
Moses (pbuh) such as Solomon, Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Malachi, John the Baptist, etc. (pbut) will
fulfill this prophecy since all were Jews as well as prophets.
However, it is Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who is like Moses (pbuh):
i)
Both had a father and a mother, while Jesus (pbuh) was born miraculously without any male intervention.
[Mathew 1:18 and Luke 1:35 and also Al-Qur’an 3:42-47]
ii)
Both were married and had children. Jesus (pbuh) according to the Bible did not marry nor had children.
iii)
Both died natural deaths. Jesus (pbuh) has been raised up alive. (4:157-158)
Muhammad (pbuh) is from among the brethren of Moses (pbuh). Arabs are brethren of Jews. Abraham (pbuh) had two sons: Ishmail and Isaac (pbut). The Arabs are the descendants of Ishmail (pbuh) and the Jews are the descendants of Isaac (pbuh).
Words in the mouth:
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was unlettered and whatever revelations he received from Almighty God he repeated them verbatim.
“I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.”
[Deuteronomy 18:18]
iv)
Both besides being Prophets were also kings i.e. they could inflict capital punishment. Jesus (pbuh) said, “My kingdom is not of this world.” (John 18:36).
v)
Both were accepted as Prophets by their people in their lifetime but Jesus (pbuh) was rejected by his
people. John chapter 1 verse 11 states, “He came unto his own, but his own received him not.”
iv)
Both brought new laws and new regulations for their people. Jesus (pbuh) according to the Bible did not bring any new laws. (Mathew 5:17-18).
2.
It is Mentioned in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 18:19
“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not harken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.”
3.
Muhammad (pbuh) is prophesised in the book of Isaiah:
It is mentioned in the book of Isaiah chapter 29 verse 12:
“And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.”
When Archangel Gabrail commanded Muhammad (pbuh) by saying Iqra - “Read”, he replied, “I am not learned”.
4.
prophet Muhammad (pbuh) mentioned by name in the old testament:
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is mentioned by name in the Song of Solomon chapter 5 verse 16:
“Hikko Mamittakim we kullo Muhammadim Zehdoodeh wa Zehraee Bayna Jerusalem.”
“His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters
of Jerusalem.”
In the Hebrew language im is added for respect. Similarely im is added after the name of Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) to make it Muhammadim. In English translation they have even translated the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as “altogether lovely”, but in the Old Testament in Hebrew, the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is yet present.
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the New Testament:
Al-Qur’an Chapter 61 Verse 6:
“And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said, ‘O Children of Israel! I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which came) before me and giving glad tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmed.’ But when he came to them with clear signs, they said, ‘This is evident sorcery!’ ”
All the prophecies mentioned in the Old Testament regarding Muhammad (pbuh) besides applying to the Jews also hold good for the Christians.
1.
John chapter 14 verse 16:
“And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever.”
2.
Gospel of John chapter 15 verse 26:
“But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which
proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me.”
3.
Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 7:
“Nevertheless I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not
come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you”.
“Ahmed” or “Muhammad” meaning “the one who praises” or “the praised one” is almost the translation of the
Greek word Periclytos. In the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, and 16:7. The word ‘Comforter’ is used in the English translation for the Greek word Paracletos which means advocate or a kind friend rather than a comforter.
Paracletos is the warped reading for Periclytos. Jesus (pbuh) actually prophesised Ahmed by name. Even the
Greek word Paraclete refers to the Prophet (pbuh) who is a mercy for all creatures.
Some Christians say that the Comforter mentioned in these prophecies refers to the Holy Sprit. They fail to realise
that the prophecy clearly says that only if Jesus (pbuh) departs will the Comforter come. The Bible states that the
Holy Spirit was already present on earth before and during the time of Jesus (pbuh), in the womb of Elizabeth, and again when Jesus (pbuh) was being baptised, etc. Hence this prophecy refers to none other than Prophet
Muhammad (pbuh).
4.
Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 12-14:
“I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth is
come, he will guide you unto all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me”.
The Sprit of Truth, spoken about in this prophecy referes to none other than Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)
Sana…Like I said talk is cheap…so u brag about unity amongst Pakistanis n stuff but here some news for you…say something against yr religion or the establishment and u r a target…so stop being deluded since u use such goody 2 shoes wordings
Naf…did u really expect me to read yr “cut/copy paste” ? I mean really….
I read all the points raised above and many points were simply illogical and based on mere excuses to defend the facebook stand. I don’t have any exact stats with me to prove how much Facebook suffered but as a Muslim I just know that I felt pity on people like @kamal @AMS and @saddened. Do you guys have no reputation for the greatest Human being who ever lived i.e Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). Is your worldly matters and political campaigns more important then joining hands together to condemn the continuous humiliation of the Islamic teachings in the West??
I just remebered the Prohpet saying that if you see an evil, stop it with your hands, if you can’t then stop it with your tongue and if you cant even do that then atleast say it in your heart that It is wrong. And verily the last reaction is of those with least Imaan.
I solute all who openly opposed the satanic and racist activities of the Facebook and Youtube management.
Kamal Pakistan took the first step and always takes the first step because fortunately Muslims in Pakistan have not lost their self-respect and their love for Prohet Mohammad (PBUH). We all stand on a safe cross-road, where do you stand Kamal and AMS and Saddened?

Mohammad Mustafa Ahmedzai

i think thats a good thing n no one has the rite to make fun of our religion,if we the Muslims do such a thing to your religion what will u think n what will u do?those who have arranged this sucking contest are really a big shits!!!
and when I meant cut copy paste what I meant was the quoran has taken scripts from the old testament & the new testament and u hv made it your own….now if there was a coyright violation in the 5th century I’d take Mohamed to court and thats what u tell me ?? comm’on Naf can’t u see thru the BS ?
ash…go ahead do yr thing…make fun…Like I said God is supreme and he doesn’t want you to fight for him….he is bigger than that…if someone has sinned against u , pray to god that he may see the light not go around killing people and burning stuff…doing that only shows how much education u lack and FB has really exposed that…and hey the latest is the Pakistani govt. has partially lifted youtube ban due to the embarrassing situation is has created…and here u talk about how righteous yr establishment has been ?? Its just tryin to appease yr uneducated masses…
Naf..u there…gotta go…u take too long…I hate the C/C/P thinggy
Shame on all those who do not understand that its our responsibility to protect the dignity of Islam.
You all will not die if you dont use facebook. If now muslims can not unite themselves on this small act of banning facebook then what we can expect from them in the future.

IT IS VERY GOOD THAT WE ALL BROTHERS AND SISTERS ARE SUPPORTING PTA . YES FACEBOOK SHOULD BAN FOREVER, THEY ALWYS PLAN TO CRITICISE ISLAM , BUT WE MUSLIMS HAVE SHOWN THEM THAT WE ARE FULL WITH SINS BUT WE HAVE GREAT LOVE WITH OUR PROPHET HAZRAT MOHAMMAED SALALAH O ALAIH WASALM . I HOPE THAT YOUR TIME WILL PASS WELL WITHOUT THE FACEBOOK JUST REMEMBER IT IS ONLY BECAUSE OF ISLAM AND I HOPE THAT ALLAH PAK WILL LIKE OUR THIS ACT INSHALLAH AND YOU WILL BE REWARDED ALSO . KEEP THIS COMMUNITY MORE STRONG . THX TO ALL
well if u all think over it yess banning fb crapp but evn tho other islamic countries didnt do anything about it, pakistan tuk the first step n itll surely make a difference… sumone always has to take the first step rytt
Mr.Farrukh.. I am sorry on your Lame thoughts.. if it is stone age to ban face book or youtube, then why hundrads of our Pakistani Universities have banned it for years ago????????????????????????????????
government have just banned it yesterday, but Universities have banned it years ago. so you should raise this point at that time. your writing depicts your affiliation with crystal clear cause. but at least we can not allow you to show fabricated fundations of Pakistan….
I also want to tell those who consider the step towards caves, do you think facebook is the technology must be adopted by each human being???? i think world was more safer before facebook birth..
plz mind the CURRENT situation…

hy luketer
im a pakistani muslim nd i just wnted to sy not only to u bt to all my fellow cntry men..
fb ban is ridiculous..
bcx Prophet himself chose to ignore things being said against himself nd his religion nd infact prayed for the guidance of the peopl who were makin fun..he chose to be tolerant sadly none of the ppl in this forum understand tht..bt thr r alot more modest nd toleramt pakistani muslims who do..bt thy r jst thnking what a shame is this ban bringing to our country nd religion.
fools exist evrywhre ur choic should be ignore..nd not kill
P.S. muslims.. banning a webst doesnt mak u a btr muslim..plz strt reading wht is the actual message,whch says muslims shd live in harmony nd peacefuly co exist with othr religions..al of thm r brain washed thy thnk by protesting they r”sacrifising their lives for Prophet(PBUH)” haha get a life
@luketer…mmm see m guessin u not muslim well see we muslims have no ryt to proove sum other religion rong and m sure at the same tym otherz shudnt be tryna tell us our religion not ryt cuz seisly we beleive in hazrat Isa aswell, see he was a prophet n we beleive in all the Prophets dey came with the same msg… its just dat ppl wud forget n a new prophet wud hav to cum to guide em agn… i think the only diffrence between muslim and christens is dah u beleive jesus as gods son rytt?? soo i mean other things are pretty much the same no? i got a bible at home realy we refer to all em books… but the point here is dah disrespect ov anyones leader wud make em angryy n thats wats going on n m sure u wud feel the same if u wer in this position..so u guys shud stop fytin over religion preeching to each other, each ov u know well enough about their religion n i think thats everyones own buisness… but as pakistanis wee all know yeah it kinda rOng dey banning sites its not the best solution..
Check this url..
http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-10362725-71.html
It says, “Facebook removes “Should Obama be Killed ?” poll.”
If facebook can remove this type of thing (poll) from its site then why didn’t it remove the group that has clearly offended the religious feelings of muslims.
This shows the clear biasness of western powers over the muslims. We all know that it is the jewish and christians lobbies (Mosad and CIA) that are working day and night to come up with things that are against muslims.
I WANNA APPRECIATE luketer and Ameeraton
A HUGE ROUND OV APPLAUSE \m/
@[komal]: as u said you are a muslim, im not going to question ur faith or how good or bad muslim u r, but 1 thing i know for sure abt islam that
1) God is the Highest Manager
2) Muhammad Mustafa (PBUH) is his messenger
3) Follow Quranic teachings.
4) Follow Sunnah.
5) Defend Islam.
if a muslim says kalima, and dont believe on hadiths, he is a munkir. And there are several hadiths about spreading the islamic teachings and defending them as well. Grow you knowledge about islam. Its just very easy to sit at home and post a blog reply. But u should really need to know some facts about islam.
Banning FB is the right thing to do nd i condemn each nd every person doing such an act against any religion.
oh watever it is the best decision ever made by the interior ministry
noone will die without facebook in fact it will help using our energies on other useful stuff
we give a hell to facebook wen it comes to our religion
me myself a regular user of facebook but i m happy if its for our religion
@pakistani: soo what did i sayy??? we shud fyt here about religion?? mm thanx alott buh realy iv got enough knowledge to know that fyting over religion with each other is complete shyt… yess drawings n all is very wrong n i totaly oppose it n taking stand agnst it is the ryt thing even if we hav to compramize stuff.. but still that duznt mean u start fytin ooh he ryt n he rongg wen religion cumz dat was my pointtt.. everyone got thr own opinions no??
You should be ashamed of your self say sorry mr billionior

Another reason for banning FB.. FB has just ignored its own TOS (Terms of Service) and used its own platform in such anti-muslim acts. Just do some googling, use your OWN mind and read its TOS here’s the link (http://www.facebook.com/terms.php).
I am pasting few points for those people who dont want to read the whole page.
[Section 3.6]: You will not bully, intimidate, or harass any user.
[Section 3.7]: You will not post content that: is hateful, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence.
[Section 3.10]: You will not use Facebook to do anything unlawful, misleading, malicious, or discriminatory.
[Section 5.2]: We can remove any content or information you post on Facebook if we believe that it violates this Statement. (which they didnt)
So, do you people still think that such discriminatory behavior with muslims cant change anything. for your kind information do some research, use google and try to find out the people behind FB.
1000 bar LANAT hey esi muslim young generation per,
jo Allah aur us k Rasool(pbuh) ki insult ignore ker k
still, facebook ko use kerny k liye insist kery.
ALLAH bera ghareq ker dey esy islamic traitors ka.
jo Khuda Rasool(pbuh) ka sega nahi, wo apney maan baap ka kia ho ga ?
huh”’

You’re all idiots. That’s all I can say. Facebook deleted the ‘Should we kill Obama’ poll cause it was violent.
This page isn’t violent. It’s stupid and wrong, but it doesn’t violate their TOS, and no amount of bitching is gonna change that.
pakistan just roxxxxx
@komal: i am not fighting, just felt v v sad when i saw my muslim brothers and sisters saying that banning FB doesn’t change anything… changes doesn’t occur overnight! Did you know orkut is the 1st social site to banned in the middle east. I have been there and i know this. Do new internet users know about orkut now? Thats a ‘NO’ its vanished.. but it took time! That was my point.
When you start your car your speed increases gradually. You just cant defy physics and shoot directly to 100 from 0 skipping all the ones in between.
Banning FB is just a start!
guyz leave wat ever has been said and try to b true muslims…. thats the right way to go…
well yah offcource none will die if we dont use facebook ..its a great step ..i think we should use ORKUT.com, facebook sux big time..nuke face book..nuke americans, nuke europe ,, hate for all jews christian death for all ..Allah o Akbar
@ilyas. That’s such a peaceful and lovely comment to make! Your solution to the ‘problem’ at hand is to commit mass genocide. It’s wonderful seeing nice, tolerant people like yourself.
n it is against their terms of service to insult anyone’s religion still they dont mind insulting muslims their religion their emotions
TO HELL WITH FACEBOOK
@Ameeratron:
You should read the FB TOS carefully again nd again.. If you need some help with translation or grammar or understanding plain english just, take some english learning classes. Just pasting again only 2 points for your sake.
[Section 3.7]: You will not post content that: is hateful, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence.
# isn’t that content hateful? isn’t that content incites violence in muslims?
[Section 3.10]: You will not use Facebook to do anything unlawful, misleading, malicious, or discriminatory.
# isn’t that content is discriminatory and against US laws which makes it unlawful!
now who’s the idiot?
And for all those people who say, that why only Pakistan banned it, why not other muslim countries. So for their knowledge, get some history lessons. Let me make it easy for you guys.
There are ONLY 2 COUNTRIES in the whole world which came into being just in the name of their RELIGION, Pakistan[Islam](1947) and Israel[Jewism](1948) and since then Pakistan is the front line of defense for all the muslims of the world. Pakistan became the 1st and still only muslim nuclear nation in 1998. So yes.. we have proven ourselves that we can do what ever westerners can do. Its not about living in the caves or some other shit i read in the blog.
Such sites are already banned in so many offices, universities, colleges and schools coz they are simply wastage of time. Even westerners do acknowledge that (for that again use google)
by the way! i forgot to mention that Pakistan is the 7th Nuclear Nation in the whole World.
So it do matters what is banned in Pakistan and what is not.
And i am with the government banning FB. So as all the Pakistanis.

You need to grow up and should think about Islam if you are proud to be a Muslim.
Think once…!!! Before minding the comment.
Every Anti-Islamic site should be blocked ASAP. We don’t need that stupid stuff on internet…
Good Step taken by the Government.
Islam Zindabad, Pakistan Paindabad.
Ok I officially cant argue anymore, it’s no use. You have your views and I have mine. Lets agree to disagree.
Have a nice night, everyone.
Again lemme say it is a Wonderful Decision by Pakistani Courts. May ALLAH (S.W.T) bless the ones who have made this decision, ones who have implemented it, ones who have initiated this and ones who are appreciating this as it is not the matter what it will do to the FB management, it is indeed the duty of us to atleast do what we can. Rest May ALLAH (S.W.T) give us Hidayah and strength to get the gustaakh e Rasul (S.A.W) disappear from the face of the earth. (Aameen)
@Luketer: See you are saying many things bad about Islam and i never said anything wrong about your religion. This is what proving who is desperate. rest c/c/p it is but go read it that what Jesus (P.B.U.H) mentioning about the last prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) in bible. Even after you guys changed it as per your benifits but still it proves the oneness of ALLAH (S.W.T) and Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) being the last and most superior prophet of ALLAH (S.W.T) if you cant read what bible says then whats your purpose on this earth. I mean as i said even animals are better they know their creator and you dont want to. how amazing
@Luketer: I would again say that Read Quraan and come to Islam else you will be repenting trust me. May ALLAH (S.W.T) show you the right path (Aameen)
US CARTOONIST APOLOGIZES TO ALL MUSLIMS FOR PUBLISHING AND MAKING CARTOONS ON FACEBOOK,
COME ON PAKISTAN THIS IS OUR FIRST WIN.
THIS NEWS IS ON-AIR AT THE MOMENT. PLEASE TURN ON GEO NEWS.
Seriously, banning facebook makes no sense. I mean, the page still exist right? Just because we dont have access do it does NOT mean its not there any more. So much for trying to ‘protect your religion’ and preach the message of Islam.
And all the people who are with the ban, you really have no right to say we’re less religious. Who are you to judge anyones faith?
And Naf and Luketer, bytheway, we were talking about facebook here. Where does all the religious drama come in from?
@Aqsa
AQSA go and get lost….. i will insult you here and write bullshit about you and your so called relations……and will post here on this page…….
now ignore me or dont use this page anymore………..
you jackass
@Aqsa
Guys this aqsa is so desperate…. her only way to talk to her boyfriend was facebook…….. ab woh kaise baat kare gee………
hamare government ko yeah bhi samjh nahi ata……
@ AQSA
This aqsa is so weirdoo… I have been told…. she have 4 boyfriends all in diffrent cities…….lamo…..
What is wrong with you guys? Along with being racist you’re sexist too? Stop picking on her just because she’s a girl!
For fucks sake. On one hand you claim to be all religious and self righteous and on the other you’re being complete dicks! I’m sure your God would be proud.
@Sister Aqsa: Yes the fitnah is there but lemme give you an example if there is a bad thing you shall try to remove it if cant then save yourself atleast. as many times you see that on FB you commit sin. This way our Pakistani muslims brothers and sisters are atleast saved from this Fitnah. Atleast we are doing what we can and yes the limit is to get the culprits disappear from the face of earth and this will happen as well inshaa’ ALLAH.
hahahah ameeraton, thats what i wanna make you understand…….. lekin ab tu phass gaya hai
bhut tera pyaar jaag utah hai aik larki ka barei mei galat sun kar?
tera pyaaar tab kaha gaya if u r muslim jab woh hamare Prophet ka barei mei facebook per itna galat likh rahe hai……..
tab tu tum bhut uin ka barei mei likh rahe thea ignore karo uin ko and keep using facebook dont bann facebook thats their own right and blah blah…….
now y u ddidn’t ignored me? ku tumhey bura laga???hahah larki ka samney hero banane ka lia u can fight with me but we can’t fight with facebook hahahaha if we do this then we are extremist wow…….. just a wow
its useless to debate with a non muslim like you…….. we all love our prophet more then our soul eis lia hamey bhi itna hei bura lagta hai…….lekin tere jaisa jack ass ki samjh mei yeah baat nahi aye gee.
ab tujhey mei na kuch bolne ka kabil nahi chora….. now go and fuck your bladdy ass…..

heheheh great work dude, lol @ Ameeratron
GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE. ab eis ammeratron ko mei na qabil nahi chora kuch kehna ka….souch raha hai bhut bechara reply karna ka barei mein…. he would now try to get off the topic but please dont let him……..
BYE BYE
Guys dont make fun please…..he is a human, creature of same creator (S.W.T) just is not lucky enough yet to become muslim. But this is a chance. May ALLAH (S.W.T) give him Hidayah to choose the right most path for him.
@Ammeratron: Come to peace, come to ISLAM, the perfect Deen.
Ermm dude? First, fix your name please.
And you really cant say all that about me since you dont even know me.
And stop with the sexism. I mean, you really need a life, dont you?
GOD people like you are so hopeless.
And thanks, Ameeratron.
And bytheway Naf, you really cant expect people to “come to Islam” by acting the way you did before.
And erm . This comment;;
Aqsa said, in May 20th, 2010 at 2:24 pm
heheheh great work dude, lol @ Ameeratron
was not by me so yeah. (:
To all those so-called moderate genteels of Pakistan who directly or indirectly go like “Hey Mister, honor for the Prophet be unto you. Moderation is us.”, all those of you Muslims in Pakistan who think the ban on the entire Facebook is unjustified should rethink for a couple of vital reasons: one, had PTA not banned the entire Facebook and banned the specific URL instead, what difference could that have made for Facebook administrators or more specifically, for the perpetrators of this heinous act, would that even minimally be judged as lodging a protest of any kind? Two, say, that link is supposedly banned now and our access to the rest of the Facebook is exactly the same, what is the guarantee that they will not make another page depicting such abhorrence to the max? Thirdly, and the most eminent one, the Holy Qur’an says: “The Prophet is preferable for the believers even to their own selves” (33:6) and Hadhrat Ali(R.A.), speaking on behalf of all the community of suhaba in Medina, is reported to have said: “The Holy Prophet is dearer to us than our wealth, our children, our fathers, our forefathers, our mothers and cool water at the time of severe thirst.”; have we lost our faith in Quran or what, a few days ban has worn you out and the whole life devoted by our Holy Prophet (utmost peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) for the sake of our betterment in this life and the Hereafter easily escapes your anima, what kind of Muslims are you? Wait, are you even Muslims in the first place?
Anyone who entertains the thought that I am being an extremist, they need to leave this country and live with the people who label every act of obedience (be that with extremism) to Allah for seeking His pleasure and His Beloved’s (peace be upon him) as extremism [hell! Is protesting for the honor of Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) extremism too?]; stop deviating away from the path of your religion on the said pretext as clearly Pakistan was made for Islam; consequently, adherence to its ideology is a must for us all. It’s actually hurtful, we all ought to be proud of getting the whole of Facebook banned in Pakistan to exhibit to Facebook administrators a befitting reaction for hurting our sentiments but the fewest of us hold views otherwise for plainly they can’t give up their worthless habituality of surfing Facebook for this pivotal cause. I plead before the All-Powerful that upon them all, a little rain of understanding may fall.
shame on all of you so called muslims who think that banning of facebook is the wrong thing to do,you have no self respect as a muslim or a pakistani.I am so proud of this decision of bann and even if it wasnt banned,i HAVE BEEN USING FB since past 3 yrs but i have left it forever,who gives a damn about a social site for my the Name and Precious Value of my Prophet is so so so much more.A strong condemnation is what they needed and deserved and becuz we gave them a peice of our mind,the cartoonist has oologized n others will think 10 times before doing such devilish acts.wake up and learn to respect urself n your religion.
Naf and all others who are for this bann I am so proud of all of you,we don’t have to be religious fanatics to approve the ban, all you need is common sense and humanity enough to condemn and completely reject such maslicious anti Islamic acts.If you cant stand up for your PROPHET you have no soul nor any humanity.
HI
well what I think is that fb has got free publicity from all this i do condenm there act but what is gona happen is there gona apologize and get fb reopenend and you will see more ppl signing up to them then before this incident. negative publicity but it will go in fbs favour. these tactics are used to get free publicity and make ppl more aware of sites like fb and in the end make more money for them.
it is crime to be a Pakistani muslim. I wana say how many user of facebook knew that such kind of competition is going to be start, i think not more than 25%. we are muslim we could protest against them by our comments. we have been stopped (by enforcing ban on facebook) to give them reply. it means to close your eyes and let the things continue. there are 55 Islamic countries in the world who other have blocked facebook, why we are the contractor of Islam. it is true Islam is our religion, Alhumdolilah I am a Muslim but I want to see what they are doing with the Prophet (PBUH) and wanted to reply with stern language if they intrude badly in my religion.
vl fb is banned in pk i thnk its a g8 step ov our govt. foh da sake ov our religion . . . . .
*** MUST READ!!!!***
I just received a text of a much better way of boycotting the ‘draw Muhammad day’ other than protesting and asking for the day too be closed. That is not protesting - it is simply a shameless stance. Let them do what they want to do. How do we respond? We BOYCOTT Facebook not by changing our pics to… say Boycott but by closing our account. The facebook page will ask you why and tell them why. Facebook is supposed to be a peaceful networking site not a site to attack each others religions. EVERYONE CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNTS AND CONTACT EACH OTHER BY EMAIL UNTIL AN ALTERNATIVE TO FACEBOOK HAS ARRIVED. Do not open an account just to ‘protest’ - it’s probably what they want. Let everyone know. LETS STAND FOR THE HONOUR OF OUR BELOVED HAZRAT MUHAMMAD E MUSTAFA!!!!!!
It’s not fair to stop facebook or youtube.The person who wants to watch such material about holy prophet PBUH can find it somewhere else on inter net.So it does’nt make any sense to stop these sites.
@Aqsa: Well thanks for the comments will you please highlight what mistake i have made in just letting an unlucky non muslim know about the best and most peaceful religion of the universe. please come up with solid clue from my comments or dont bother replying.
2ndly: if you cant do this thing then let others do. If you have a better way of Daawaah please teach us also. What i am doing is as per my abilities and there is always a big room for improvement as i am a very tiny creature of my ALLAH (S.W.T). i would really be thankful if you can give us some lesson to make proper Daa’waah so that we can do it in a better way.
I hope you will take it seriously and will let make us beneficial from your experiance and knowledge.
May ALLAH (S.W.T) bless all the Muslim Umaah and show us the right path. (aameen)
I m very sad that people like nadved likes Fb more than our Prophet :’(
HEY GUYZZ NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN OUR PROPHET
HEY FACEBOOK GO TO HELL
I m with Lahore high Court !
@Nadved and ohther unloyal Muslims !: You people want facebook back huh ? So go on roads and protest to unblock facebook :@ !
I m pretty sure Me and other true muslims
will win against you
LHC Zindabad
Haha, what a pathetic defence. “We just want to be sexist a-holes to show you what it feels like to be you”.
@Aqsa, no problem. Sexism pisses me off. Because 90% of guys in this country think that they’re better than women.
I’m not sexist. I’m not racist. And you ‘religious’ people are. I know your level. I’ve lived in this country my whole life so trust me, I know all the double standards. You guys act religious when the time comes to act religious, and normally google pictures of Bipasha Basu and watch Hollywood movies just for the sex scenes. Don’t act like such good muslims, cause you’re not. Hypocrites. You stare at girls, you talk trash, and then you come on here and still pretend to be such good muslims.
@Naf, I appreciate your comments, because you seem to be a much nicer person than the others.
@Ameeratron: Thanks for the appreciation. I may be not that nice but just trying to follow what my religion says actually and it makes me what you judge. (Alhamdulilah)
Islam promotes peace and harmony it never allow us to even say something which can hurt feelings of a common Non Muslim as all are the creature of 1 GOD.
As far as what happened on FB, its hurting the emotions of each Muslim. No doubt there are many bad things going on as well. But in a dark black room 1 flame of candle can make it a bit lighter.
As Pakistan’s above 90% population is Muslim so the collective decision will be what they want ofcourse.
Even if we consider the Non muslims religion, No religion promotes hatred and such things which are being done.
Islam is the religion of peace first of all. It is a biased article why dont any 1 say that if millions are getting hurt then it is wrong to hurt them either way. Where is so called democracy of the world here. Why no Farrukh was there to write anything when millions were protesting to take the page off. conclusion:
1) At first step so called social worker and sophisticated society shall have punished the FB management and the individuals who did this brutal act to making a competition on the charge of playing with the emotions of millions.
2) if they dont have that much moral courage then if a court has taken 1 good step to save its people from severe sin then what ache does all those third party having. its a matter of country public and its govt no is shall interfere in it.
3) if there human rights are alive now where they were when a bunch of idiots were trying to play with the feelings of millions isnt it a human right issue.
They just want a reason to poke their noses into our things which is intolerable.
@ Ameeratron
This is none of your business
(yOu are an indian)
Ok, If I’m an Indian, then why am I wasting my time arguing with you guys?
B/C you want us to fight with each other !!
You can go out of this forum Ameeratn or what evha
HA, Naf, first, you cant really call a person ‘unlucky’ just because they’re non muslims. Whatever happened to religious tolerance? Isnt that what Islam teaches us? And you’re not even doing much to bring people to Islam. All you’re talking about is how you cant stand someone with a different opinion. And all you’re saying is ‘oh go read the Quran, and you will see what it better’ or something like that. Mate, I’m pretty sure no one’s going to be very psyched about coming to Islam if you just keep going on about how they need to read the Quran.
And as for the whole thing about you not being able to stand the ‘Draw Muhammad’ page; EVEN THE PROPHET CHOOSE TO IGNORE STUFF AGAINST HIM. I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t have done all this as a response to an INSIGNIFICANT PAGE on facebook. And you’re talking about democracy? So then, you shouldnt be all up on people who want facebook back.
Ameeratron, haha, sexism pisses me off too. I cant stand it either. :/
@Pakistani Brother: No problem if he is Indian even. As Indians are also creature of ALLAH (S.W.T). Islam does not promote racism. there are some fundamental issues on which we cant compromise rest things get settled with discussion, if i wont tell them my point of view and wont listen to them, how we can conclude something. Imp thing is that while discussing we shall take care of the other person feelings.
The best weapon is ones behavior, if we will start discussion with the mind to prove other person wrong then wont reach to the goal. Islam teaches us to be humble, listen to all and tell them what islam says. and of course Islam says the Truth.
How can you guys call someone ‘Indian’ when you don’t even freaking know them? Try to make sense sometimes. (:
i dnt agree with Mr.kamal. China and other countries have imposed ban on facebook. it shud be a lesson to these guys…..
The problem with you guys is that you want everyone to have the same views as you. You’re telling me to ‘get out’ just cause I have a different viewpoint. Grow up. Not everyone wants to be a mindless puppet.
We have define our priorities, what comes first religion or face book?? ask your self and than answer, i ‘m not saying leave facebook or leave islam, but what comes first? for a muslim “religion” comes first, this is a muslin country we have to set religion as our first priority. we are not doing everything according to Islam but at least we have to do something to defend Islam
The are attacking on us through warfare and media. what should do, you can’t defend our self. almost 37000 people report this page, facebook had not taken any step to stop it. now we should have done.
We did it at our own. facebook is biased. i wish facebook should open once atleast. i just want delete my account forever.
for those who say it’s a freedom of speech,
we have set boundaries to everything so that other persons may also live. Like if you are a strong person you have all the right to tell people that you are a strong person but you can’t kill anyone. you can’t cross airplane from our airspace without our permission, in the same way we have to define or west has to define their boundaries to freedom of speech. absolute freedom can be dangerous for others or for themselves as well.
Only western world has emotion, we are not human, we don’t have any emotion. “NO” You are wrong. Our prophet S.A.W, comes even before our parent,children and YOU( the whole western world.
m wid Aqsa and Ameeraton now
keep up d spirit guys
Muhammad Atif, its kinda immature of you to say we have to pick one, religion or facebook. I dont even see the relationship between the two. Try and care about something that really matters. A country like Pakistan really can’t afford to die after sites like facebook when there are so many other problems we need to face. Hopefully, I don’t need to list those problems down or that’ll just prove how oblivious you are to whats going on around you. (:
@Grow up guys; thankyou (:
you are not understanding their plans
i just read that few of our fellows are saying that this is not fair to put ban of youtube and facebook because if you need to find anything about prophet S.A.W than you can find it on youtube. i don’t disagree with you. but the thing is they show you 100s of good video about holy prophet S.A.W than they show one offensive picture, you say its ok someone would have posted it but after 3 years they show you 2 offensive pictures after 100 of good videos than after few more years they will show you 1 offensive video out of 100 videos. you may notice but by than your subconscious mind would have accepted it, but you again try to focus on good videos but one day there will be 50 good and 50 offensive, and now its not you watching this. now its your children, now they will be able to completely isolate this generation from religion…
and by Allah We will fight for it, we will not let this happen.
@Aqsa: well ther are absolutely Unlucky that they are away from such a perfect religion, how you say that i shall not say it.
Moreover people are psyched to come to Islam. go read the facts that how many people from only America comming to Islam each year. Also check the stats that what their lives become after embracing Islam SubhaanALLAH. Their comments will tell you that how lucky they are that they get a chance to live their lives as per the Most perfect Deen of the universe.
2ndly: you telling me that Even prophet choose to ignore the stuff against him. well heres a Hadith of Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W):
“Whoever among you sees an evil action, let him change it with his hand [by taking action]; if he cannot, then with his tongue [by speaking out]; and if he cannot, then with his heart [by hating it and feeling that it is wrong] – and that is the weakest of faith” (Narrated by Muslim, 49)
So its not that you just ignore its our duty to do at the max we can do to stop it.
Finaly: About democracy, what does democracy means, whatever more people want it shall be done….check in this blog how many people are in favour and how many are against.
Moreover if you think that there are more people who didnt like it then why dont you go to court and get your right as the ones did who get it blocked.
Only typing here is not a solution. give it a thought that what are you saying just to save a worthless site.
May ALLAH (S.W.T) show us the right path. (aameen)
They shouldn’t ban facebook. Offensive or not, its advantages faaar outnumber a couple of stupid fan pages. It’s your choice whether you want to make a big deal out of it or not. I wouldn’t even have known they existed if everyone didn’t start joining them to fight with the makers.
Again, all the Pakistani businesses, universities, restaurants and such on facebook are going to suffer, because it’s an extremely powerful tool of communication. It should be a choice. If you guys want to boycott facebook, you should. We on the other hand, should be allowed to continue using it like before.
That’s called democracy. Don’t let the comments on a blog decide the fate of 45 million people.
one of our fellow is saying brothel exist in america which is against islam but we don’t stop going there. brother if you have choose between a brothel or somewhere, where our religion is insulthed than… brothel is a better… its a crime greater than illegal sexual relationships.
if you are committing sins it’s ok but please try to keep islam alive in your heart.
What the hell does facebook have to do with a brothel? And open your eyes, Pakistan has tons of brothels too. (no one calls them brothels anymore btw, they’re called whorehouses)
can i ask a quaetion wht is the reason behind fb banning i dont know that plkz can any one of u tell me
Muhammad Atif said,
if you are committing sins it’s ok but please try to keep islam alive in your heart.
:O :O :O :O :O :O
what wud u ppl cawl it ??
I completely agree with ameeratroon.
Why put a halt to everyone else’s business and fun. I mean the government should be least bothered about some stupid teenagers who are trying to provoke us. Their main aim was to make us angry and for us to react. And well we did react.
Doesn’t that make them victorious at the end of it?
@ Aqsa
your alwayz welcum sister dear
cumOn let ur steps move 4wrd people,
religion is so much more than a facebook … it wud b of no harm , believe me
Faith never needs no protection

HAV NESCAFE n JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGOOOOOOO YAAR !!!!
[winkx] xx
chalo lets laugh on some poor mentalitiez toghethr LOL
Ameeratron
Yes you are right i don’t again disagree with you. But the thing is, businesses universities and restaurants were exisiting even before facebook, they were fine and even now they can make without it.
You know around 37000 people reported this page as an offensive one but they hadn’t done anything. why? in that group there only few hundrad people against them more than 37000 people are report why they didn’t block it. now what does democracy says?
means they intentionally let it happen. Now let them be punished… we can live without facebook, can’t we?
@ aqsa
sister. rather our mature sister. there was no relation between religion and facebook, untill they allowed all this to happen… now when they allowed it. means they have created a situation in which have we have to choose between religion and face book.
and i think this issue is more important than anyother issues for pakistan, i’m sorry if hurt anyone’s feelings..
I’m still around…there’s so much hate out here…
Ok lets get a few things straight.
Facebook will barely suffer any losses from this ‘boycott’ until the 31st. Facebook makes $.03 per click. If almost 2 million Pakistani’s block facebook, that’s a loss of $0.15 million. That’s milk money for Facebook.
Remember, you’re dealing with website that is still thriving even after being banned in 3 other countries. So if you think this is going to ‘destroy their economy’, you have another thing coming.
Shouldn’t it be better to make a counter-protest group on facebook? Some Pakistanis made one called ‘AGAINST Everybody Draw Mohammad Day’ and it had so many more members than the actual page, until the government decided to block the page.
And since they chose to block youtube and facebook, why not all the hundreds of thousands of pornographic websites out there? Aren’t those also ‘un-islamic’?
@Ameeratron: Well since yesterday we are trying to make you understand 1 thing that purpose is not to harm there eceonomy rather we dont care about that. Thing is that what they did is far more important to stop than business, facebooking, bla bla bla. Again i will say that if 1 guy has a restaurant add or business going on then for the whole muslim country is more important or ban of that 1 guy.
2ndly people saying it to ignore, first thing is that ignorance is not a solution you have to cope up with such kind of Fitnah. and if you compare it to porn site as you guys were discussin, so it just affect those who want to go to tose sites, but on FB if i dont want to do it still its comming infront of me every minute in shape of ads, flicker, and many ways.
Most importantly all those who says that its a big cruelty with them just reply 1 thing.
We dislike it, we went to court we get it banned.
You dislike this ban what you doing…….sitting here…
decide yourself….
anyways this thing is unbearable in any case……even if i will hear that sum1 have even tried to dishonor the prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) alone some where means its not on net etc…still i will inshaa’ ALLAH do as per the best of my abilities to stop that thing by hand, by tongue or by any possible mean.
@ Hindus / Indians
If anyone will make website against your stupid Gods
like that elephant
with long trunk ! What ya peope will do ?
JUST SIT OR BAN THAT WEBSITE ??
Facebook loverzz
If you people want fb back so protest on roads or go to Court !
*Still waiting for Hindus / Indians to answer*
@ Ameeratron:
We dont want to harm their economy!! :S havent you ever wanted to protest against something you dont agree to?
ok forget religion, we are all hypocrites every once in a while. What about your family? People you love?..
Had someone tried to put up a face of someone you care about with the body of a dog, How would you react? Come on, we are emotional people and yes, well fanatics when it comes to our religion. When we are not saying anything to THEM, why are they trying to harm our religion?
They are also emotional about their religion, lets draw funny pictures of their Holocaust, and see if they simply just make an “anti” group, or react much more violently.
We are just trying to show them that they suck at whatever they are doing, and I’d say I would happily do that. Damn facebook to hell.
Naf, mate, seriously, you wouldn’t like it if a Jew or someone tells you you’re unlucky just because you dont follow the same religion as they do, right?
OH GOD, can you ever TRY to understand what I’m saying? I didnt say people arent psyched to come to Islam. I just said, they WONT BE PSYCED IF SOMEONE IS TRYING TO PREACH THE WAY YOU ARE.
AHH AND, YOU KNOW WHAT? HOW THE HELL IS BANNING FACEBOOK GOING TO END ‘EVIL’ , HUH? Can you like please explain that because I’m kinda very confused here. I mean, you didnt try to end evil. You just stopped yourself from seeing it. Because the site it still there and people are still using it and that page still exist so HA, you failed. (:
And democracy, so there is an easier way out. Why dont they just unban facebook and people like you can stay away from it then. I bet you guys would be like the first ones to go back to it when the unban it.
@Muhammad Atif, seriously mate WAKE UP. How can you say this issue is more imporatant than any other issue for Pakistan? Man, there is poverty and inflation and umemployment and homeless people and kids who dont have any place to go to and girls getting raped and then blamed for it too. DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK SOME LOWLY FACEBOOK PAGE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ALL THAT? BECAUSE IF YOU DO, YOU REALLY NEED TO SORT OUT YOUR BEHAVIOUR. GOD. Sorry if I offended you, but that really made me angry.
@Aqsa: Enlightened Moderation has finally touched you as well……
Look its not that i am saying its Quraan read the below verses from Quraan..
As to those who believe not in the Hereafter, We have made their deeds pleasing in their eyes; and so they wander about in distraction. (27:4)
________________________________________________
Such are they for whom a grievous Penalty is (waiting); and in the Hereafter theirs will be the greatest loss (27:5)
2nd: well It is duty to save our muslim brothers and sisters, what rest of world does is their deed. Look in Quraan it is said Oh people who beleive ….so it addresses the people who beleive shall abstain from the evil deeds and the Kuffaar ofcourse will never do that…..so by banning it we are atleast saving our muslim brothers and sisters from this fitnah.
and i cant stop myself to laugh that what a nice way you have introduced of democracy….please come out of idealism and think practically…….
we Muslim love our Prophet MUHAMMAD[PBH] more than our faimlies nd property .
so i m v.thakful to our court,that they banned facebook.facebook should be ban forever.
Naf, Enlightened Moderation? Seriously, get a life. (:
And for your information, I’m muslim too. And I really dont need someone like YOU to tell me anything about my religion so please. (:
Haaa, I never ‘introduced’ anything. Its not mine to introduce anyway. YOU’RE THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO COME OUT OF YOUR DREAM FANTASY AND STOP BLOCKING OUT EVERYTHING THATS AGAINST YOUR VIEWS.
@Aqsa:1 thing you agree naa that one shall preach, ok you start and i learn from you that how we can do it in a better way. Thanks
well I’ve seen all comments and i m totally agreed with the decision of Lahore high court …. well if we call this facebook page madness a freedom of speech then …. lets start a page with the subject of “HOLOCAUST DENAIL” as if all this is called freedom of speech then lets start discuss it and i request all sick jews n christians to share their knowledge on it here in this forum ……. oh let me clear i really don’t wanna hurt any 1 feelings
Ermm, alright. But I really don’t think this is the right place to preach Islam. Because this was an article on Facebook and you dont have to bring religion in everything.
@ Aqsa
Naf is bringing religion in the comments because Facebook directly hit the religion !
they made the pictures of our Prophet !
@Aqsa,
Well sister, i ‘m sorry if i offended you, and i ‘m aware of these issues, and i have read books on inflation, economics and poverty and i ‘m keeping my updated with going on issues , but tell me if there is any other thing on this more important our religion in this universe? For me there is no other thing. so if anyone attacks on our religion, than what do you suggest that we should sit quite and let them do whatever they doing to spoil our religious image, till we reach at a point, where it becomes easy for them to destroy “Masjid-e-Aqsa”. They are actually testing our religious emotion and we have give them a message “NO”.
Banning Facebook will not end evil but atleast it will give them a message…
again i ‘m writing 37000 people reported against few 100 people why facebook didn’t stop. this what their democarcy is?
tasneem jalap …really ? I mean…really ? yr mom’s just broken her back and would die in just a few moments but hey P mohamed ask’s u to stay online talkin to me about yr justification to ban FB…
@ aqsa please don’t be offended i want to be agree with you, if you are right. but if i ‘m right than you must agree…
tasneem jalap ….ah some worse news pal…yr brothers/sisters r just about burnin in yr house and I think u know what u need to do ?? ah P mohammed comes to mind…com’on pal stop talkin thru yr a$$ just because u can…Hey Naf…u listenin ?
Hey Aqsa…Muhammad Atif’s hittin on you
@ Aqsa, only i need to wakeup??? no We need to wakeup and understand, what is realy the big game plan is going on. which they are making for century.. may be now you may find may comments childish…
but again i’m just trying to learn more from you, and tell you something which i know.. which might very little when it is compared with your knowledge.
BAN FB for ever or we will destroy PTA for not Doing so!!
Luketer i said sister… i don’t have any chances left to hit anyone
Heeter…how ’bout tyin a belt around yr vest…good way to destroy innit ?
my point exactly….what do u care about ..u defendin a prophet who married n had sex wit a 7 year old…a 7 year old…get my drift ?
Facebook removed the ‘Everybody Draw Mohammad Day’ fan page.
What do you guys think about that? Can PTA and facebook kiss kiss and make up?
No they didn’t
@Ameeratron
your freedom ends where the next person’s freedom begins.so please dont justify some idiots actions in the name of freedom of speech.Pkistanis dont want to live in the dark ages but we do have a right to register our protests.I wish all of us had voluntarily deactivated our account temporarily as a protest against fb’s failure to take actoin instead of the government banning it(thats what a lot of ppl including me did).
just try to understand your fellow citizens alittle bit

Yes they did. I just checked.
I am actually confused here..the government banned facebook cuz facebook was promoting the “Draw Mohammad day” page..there are millions of pages like “Allah is a criminal” “Quran is a toilet paper” “Fu*k Islam”why ddnt facebook get banned because of these pages? if pakistan’s government really cares about religion then they would have banned fb a loong time ago..
?
Facebook wasn’t promoting ‘Draw Mohammad Day’ Samman. It just wasn’t deleting it.
az Samman said that there were already so many grOupz nawt jz against Islam n Allah , but also against other religionz …. whr ver u ppl den?
hw cum u awl are goin manic suddenly ? :p
still there is hell of stuff on other sites , go open google n search in thea …..
y nawt bannin the internet? instead ov fb n youtube only?
Muhammad Atif, yeah, suurrreeee, giving them a message? I dont think they even care about whatever is happening here. Like, you guys can go and protest all you want. DO YOU THINK THEY EVEN CARE? LIKE SERIOUSLY.
Luketer, the prophet never married a seven year old or had sex with one so please get your facts straight, yeah?
uGhhhhhh okayy dis is getting soo messed.. m bored to deathh m freakin sittin starin atda wallz thanx to all dis crapp…dey shud just ban breathing..i mean seriuz….;(
@ Aqsa
Your father married an 7 Years old girl and have sex with her mother !! Its a wrong statement right ????
I know you are feeling angry ! why you dont become angry when some one says wrong statements to our Prophet ?
@All Non Muslims: See the whole blog no 1 says any thing about your religion what does this prove that Islam talk about respecting the other religion so dats why….But wait i believe no religion promotes hurting others emotions so all those who sayin bad abt islam actually dont have a religion and for me who dont have a religion is worse than animals (Behavior wise) rest i do respect all of you as you are humans but it is proved that Islam teach you respect.
@A few angry Muslims: Dear brother and sister in Islam, please try to follow the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) our purpose of life is not to pinpoint all these rather we have to tell them about the right path which Alhamdulilah n luckily we are following. rest all are creature of ALLAH (S.W.T) and we have to care for their feelings in any case.
Conclusion: guys its 2 days i am trying to give my point of view some mite agree some mite not conclusion is that people with Eemaan in their hearts are winners as the pages got banned and the one for who FB is more important cant even go to court and say that its their right. so who dont even can fight for their rights, they can just sit here and give senseless and vague statement.
End Note: Islam is the Most peaceful,Perfect religion of this universe till end of times. ALL of us including me needs to learn it by study in detail and then we can taste its sweetness. For the Honor of Muhammad Inshallah we will take even heads off the shoulders who will show disrespect as it happened in past, there are many examples.
May ALLAH (S.W.T) give us strength to lead our lives as per the teachings of Quraan and Sunnah of the prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) Aameen.
@Pakistani; Are you for real, mate? Because you really dont make any sense. And true, if anyone says anything about the Prophet, I would get angry. But unlike you guys, I wont get all emotional and threaten to kill people because to be honest, I really dont think that one page on facebook is worth all this attention.
True that
Plus banning all these sites is actually proving to be a disadvantage for us Pakistanis..like someone else said before..fb is not facing any loses..its us..the internet bussiness in Pakistan is running sucessfully mostly because of fb and youtube…the dsl companies will be out of bussiness if fb, youtube and flicker is banned..there are over 45 million active fb users in Pakistan..and usually evrybody who uses internet, uses it to visit these sites..i mean no one keeps doing research work 24/7..facebook is used by 45 million people 24/7..so all this banning wunt bring any harm to the facebook company..rather it will bring us harm…the non beleivers wanted us to react..and get angry..so we get emotional and do sumfin stupid that will prove to be a disadvantage to us..
Ameeratron, I appreciate and agree with all your comments. You are a smart young man, and I can see leadship skills in the way you think. I like the fact that you think for yourself and are an excellent communicator. Thank you also for the teaching of what Jesus has done for all mankind.
I appreciate that : )
@Ameeratron,
if u have time do read this

Question: What’s the difference between a Jew and a Pizza?

2. About $5.65
3. You take out the pizza. In one piece.

@ Aqsa
this requirement of being muslim, protest… How can you forget “stop if you can by hand” by mouth” or atleast recognize bad as bad in your heart” and it is lowest degree of Emaan.
it doesn’t matter wether our messages disturbs them or not, what matters most that we try to give them a message..”NO”
@ Luketer
Prophet S.A.W didn’t marry to 7 year old girl, you can find lots of reply on this issue by islamic scolors on the internet. there were lots of different reasons for entering into this marriage… but this is not the forum to dicuess this. we are dicuess ban of facebook, for making fun of our religion.
“Ever religion should be respected”
@ Samman
You are right, If pakistani government should have banned it long time ago, if government realy cares about religion… you are right…
Goverment is late but not wrong. They just did it.
Atif, I really don’t think banning facebook stopped them.
Aqsa
This will not stop them, this our prophet S.A.W’s prediction, they will rule on our heads, But a muslim can’t be oppressed. Well for your information i was also a facebook crazy user..
Anyways this will not stop, what do you suggest? what should have been done, or what should be done?
What do you Suggest?
Atif, I’m not crazy about facebook or anything. I’m just saying what they did was wrong.
Yeahh, so this will not stop them. I don’t see the point of banning facebook then.
Well, they should unban facebook and people like you, who were with the ban, should never even think about using facebook again. And the rest can use it and ignore all pages which offend them or whatever the want. (:
@ aqsa
I thank Allah That you do recogize bad as bad. that you do recognize that whatever facebook did, they did wrong.
But the thing is giving them message was more important, which i think, has been delivered. but facebook has to unbaised. Look i Have stated this again and again more than 37000 people reported against that particular page which had round about 100 people as fans… why they didn’t take any action… what does decmocracy suggest??
If facebook remains to baised than, it should be banned forever… what do you say?
To the Youth of pakistan
Islam is a way of life, Means islam is important to live your life. or in more simple words “Islam is life”, i don’t know how can you people accpet the insult of a Person who brought life to you.
Facebook is not life, we can live without it.
For you, today facebook is more important than our beloved prophet S.A.W
If on the jugdement day If Prophet S.A.W ask you, there a website facebook which supported the cartoonist…………. what you did? are you going to answer, we kept on using it. Shame on us. Please Grow up, Please Grow UP and WAKE UP. They have successfully taken us away from islam, but still we have enough time.
Or Youth don’t believe, they will be standing infront of Allah on day?
Please stop it, DO SOMETHING TO STOP IT.
Facebook supported the Cartoonists and you are not going to anything?
1: Anti ban guys should respect pro ban guys’ point of view.. after all its the freedom of speech
2: Bad language is first used by anti ban guys against the pro ones
3: The fight may continue, NO ONE IS RIGHT HERE, THIS IS NO WAY TO CONVINCE SOMEONE BY CALLING THEM DUMB-ASSES AND CAVE LIVERS .. come on lets get to the facts
4: i myself got happy when i heard the govt banned fb, BUT NOW I THINK ITS WRONG
5:why ?
6:a) da ban is there so dat Pakistani’s may not be able to see those images.. BULLSIT, when u’ll lift the ban everybody’s gonna go there and watch it
6:b) it may cost some financial loss to FB.. No its not cz they’ve got da hell ov users
7: means .. you did a wrong way to protest for a right cause [ a mutual point where both the anti ban guys and the pro ones MUST agree to me ]
8: now what should have been done
9: ban was wrong, as proved.. “report bad” it on facebook .. BEST
10: why
11: its damn impossible for a social networking site to keep continuing an event if a mass “report bad” is lodged against it .. its simply impossible , if all of we muslim guys would have reported it bad ..
12: this is the point my friends, where we dont take responsibility .. we blame it on non muslims .. LISTEN LISTEN !! a wrong-doer is gonna keep doing wrong, unless u figure a massive way out to stop them ..
this was the “massive way” ..
just banning in pakistan would have given them a message that it hurts us
BUT THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT TO DO .. THEY KNOW IT HURTS US, AND THEY WILL NOW DO IT WITH MORE POWER THE NEXT TIME,
because practically, they got no loss by getting banned in one country ..
they’ve got more strong now
so stop fighting now, and figure out a way in which u can practically do someting
[here i disagree to the anti ban guys k “simle ignoring it was the right option” ]
NO No .. do something practical ..
now ask people out of your country to report it bad ..thats te only thing you can do now
@ Enough Enough Enough
I have stated many many times…..
Please read…
more 37000 people reported that particular page as offensive facebook didn’t take any action… it is possible to continue such activities even reported bad. Company allowed it to happen read. what we are doing, not even ready to accept ban
When hitler was staged as hero on face book as hitler club it was at once with drawn as this step was considered to hurt jews. Now face book wants to hurt every Muslim comunity for FUN. Why does right of freedom suddenly disappears for Jews but is very important when dealing with other comunities. West should grow up and stop being a bloody hipocrite
@ shahabbas0
not only west need to grow, many of us also need to grow up. if you just few commments above
Well, Atif, no one said facebook is more important than the Propeht. :/ I mean, its obviously not. Its just that banning facebook isn’t doing any good. And like I said before, even the Prophet choose to ignore stuff that was against him. I dont see any other muslim country banning facebook because of that one page. And there is a lot of good stuff about facebook as well. Lets look at the bright side, yess?
Actions are opposite to what we say…
@ Aqsa can you answer
“To the Youth of pakistan”.
Atleast i can’t, may be sister you can… so i’ll just condemn it.
Okaaay, so banning facebook is not going to change anything man. Its as simple as that. So they removed that page, thats not such a big deal. Because the people who made the page still hate Islam and stuff so instead of this, you could, you know, tell THOSE people about Islam instead of people like us, who already know about it. Get what I mean? But since facebook is banned, you cant even do that.
And I’m pretty sure the prophet is not going to ask anyone that question. I mean, like I said before, facebook isnt the be all and end all. I think there is other stuff which decides a persons fate in the hereafter, and not a WEBSITE. :/
@ Aqsa
If banning facebook will not change any thing ! Then why that cartoonist apologise from Muslims?
Proof: http://www.zemtv.net/2010/05/21/american-cartoonist-apologize-to-muslims-all-over-the-world/
You are not a complete muslim, unless untill you adore and love Allah and his prophet more you love your parents,
what if someone would have drawn funny cartoons of your parents? and are you going tolerate, the who even supported him?
You are going to be questioned for your every deed…. EVERY DEED.
We realy don’t know islam, we tell eachother…
You are not a complete muslim, unless untill you adore and love Allah and his prophet more you love your parents,

Ya Allah Facebook rebans!! I cant live widout facebook now.
Agreed with muhammad atif !
I agree wid muhammad too. Even though i luv facebook and cant live wid out it, our frst priority is islam! Facebook is only a network….and Muhammad is our Prophet so i guess facebook is not sumfin to lose ur iman!
Thank You Pakistani’s and Fatima Waqar
Fatima You are saying this
Ya Allah Facebook rebans!! I cant live widout facebook now.
Now you are saying
….and Muhammad S.A.W is our Prophet so i guess facebook is not sumfin to lose ur iman!
MashAllah! May Allah Bless You… you are a youth with strong commitment
I do wish Facebook rebans….becux i luv it….but obviously i am wid our government. I do think islam is our frst priority but there are sum things tht we luv and have to give up for islam!! so this period ov tym is a big…lets see….examn for us *sigh*
Now i ‘ll just say, before anyone says anything to defend facebook.. just keep in your mind He S.A.W had spent his whole life just to pray for his Umma’ and even on the judgement day he will be standing by us. Even if he knew that we were the wrong doers..
But we can’t even accpet the block of Facebook..
Facebook is not more than our Prophet Muhammad SAW….. Facebook should be ban forever ! only I love Farmville on facebook
But I cant play now !!
Ermm Atif, so they apologized? That really is no big deal. It doesnt change the way they all think. And bytheway, that draw Muhammad page is back now so ha, it really didnt work.
And thats kinda ridiculous. If someone draws cartoons of my parents, I’ll just ignore it. Because being all up on them and trying to kill them wont make a difference.
All those people were trying to kill that woman who was involved in this. I mean, really, ISLAM IS A RELIGION OF PEACE. YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO KILL PEOPLE FOR STUFF LIKE THIS. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO FORGIVING PEOPLE?
@Sister Aqsa: i read alot of comments from you and you insisted on 1 thing,….will it stop them doing this….Answer is of course yes…….look at breaking news the american lady has started apologizing on this already coz she got an idea that a real muslim will never afford it.
Moreover just suppose as you said that it wont stop any thing in the world even if we ban the website in pak…….now first of all you have agreed upon that this is a bad thing on that website and of course FB management is involved in this crime as the breach the TOS by them.
Most important point i want to say is that…..alcohol is haram…..it is declared haram so did it stopped manufacturing of alcohol in the world….of course no it is being made everyday but is it openly selling in islamic states????….no it is banned……would you be in favour that local corner stores keep alcohol with pepsi in their chillers, i hope you will never agree on this ……so what it is…..even if we ban the alcohol in our state it is being made throughout the world so is it a wrong decision to ban it?????similarly FB issue might be all over FB but we are banning it to save our Muslim brothers and sister…..so it does make the difference and by the way soon this thing will be over as well may ALLAH pak give us strength as of Ghazi Ilm Deen Shaheed…..i hope i have clarified it
@Sister Aqsa: 1 more thing you just mentioned “ISLAM IS A RELIGION OF PEACE. YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO KILL PEOPLE FOR STUFF LIKE THIS. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO FORGIVING PEOPLE?”
well Islam is ofcourse religion of peace but till the time the opponent dont harm you….we never attack first but we have right of defending…..and by the way we are no 1 to forgive…..its ALLAH….yes if the do some thing with me i mite forgive but this is not with me, this is with my Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) who is dearer to me more than my life Alhamdulilah.
And also its not biasness for non muslim, even if muslim do such thing the punishment is not at all less than death.
well m so happy that face book has been blocked…anything against our Prophet will be condemned…when face book could not respect the MUSLIMS y on earth even a single Muslim should use this CRAP AND WASTE TIME!!!!!!!!!!we Muslims have to unite and b 1…Whatever west is doing with Muslims has to be stopped and we have to stand united….we have to be like 1 BODY!!!WAKE UP MUSLIMS!!!!
FACE BOOK AUTHORITIES HAVE TO APOLOGIZE TO ALL MUSLIMS ON MEDIA …….or it shud be banned forever:)

Oh we’re no one to forgive? Oh right, so WHY DO THOSE PEOPLE APOLOGIZE TO US THEN? Seriously.
And there are no benefits of alcohol but there are a hell lot of benefits of facebook. See the difference?
@Sister Aqsa: They are appologizing as they think they just have hurt us….thats not all for us what we got hurt is 1 part of 1000 parts and rest are that they dishonor our prophet and its our moral duty to punish them whatever way possible if we wont do that we will be answerable.
2ndly who said alcohol doesn’t have benefits and this give idea that with which you look at things.
refer to Al Quran (2-219 (Part)
concerning alcoholic drink and gambling. Say: “In them is a great sin, and (some) benefit for men, but the sin of them is greater than their benefit.”
so i hope after this you shudnt debate but if you just dont want to understand then you can never.
There is nothing about alcohol in the Quran. There was no alcohol back when the Prophet lived.
Anyway, this argument isn’t getting us anywhere. You can have your own opinion, I can have mine.
Nice talking to you though (:
@Naba:The reason we are never happy with our govt is because jo b ai..wo uneducated and illiterate hota hai..everyone takes Pakistan as a toy..jis ne ake ker khelna hai khel k chala jata hai..apni bari puri karta hai n dosra ajata hai..banning facebook was not the right step..the Mualwiz want to ban everything jis pe tchnology likha ho..mualwiz dont want us to prosper..aj ki dunia mein religious education ke sath sath modern education hona zaruri hai..if our government was educated enough to they would have known ke banning facebook wouldnt have proved us to be pure muslims…facebook is a platform jis pe evry has a right of speech..and jis pe the you can express you views to the whole world…if the Holy Prophet pbuh was alive right he wouldnt have taken such a step..and in the olden times..wen pple abused the Prophet ..did the belivers shut themselves in Madina and put a ban on all the links with the non belivers?No..he would have negotiated..and he would have tried to make them embrace Islam..thats what we should do..and people like you and me could have done that if fb were not banned..students were out on the streets protesting against Draw Muhammad Day..when they could have peacefully demonstrated on fb..facebook is a platform ..that has been taken away from us…if we want to make a change we need to use technology rather than put bans on it..
These guys whO banned fb shoUld sHifT into some caves of tribal areas dUh…….cOmeOn we need dat bak on
@momina : fb authorities apologizing all muslims jz bcoz of fb getting banned in pakistan sTop finding stars in day time :p
@Aqsa: well we need to understand our Deen properly. half n half is nothing if we say the Shadah (Laa Illaha IlALLAH Muhammad AlRasulALLAH then we promise to our creator that we will obey each and every order. so we shall surrender infront of ALLAH and reasoning and logic in Deen is nothing its just learn and comply.
2ndly please read the above comment of mine i quoted the Ayat (Meaning) from Quraan and hey wait a sec ehat u said there was no alcohol in those days comeon did you ever studied the history of Islam or seerat un Nabi, Prophet Muhammad declared Alcohol haram by the order of ALLAH (S.W.T) and wine jars were broken and streets were flooded with wine and afterwards it is Haram on muslims and you very boldly say that there is no mentioning of alcohol in Quraan.
i would suggest to all including myself that Deen is not that what we think its what ALLAH said in the Quran and Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) taught us. we shall be extra careful while making any statement. And now i got it why you were saying that the way i was preaching my religion is wrong around 3 days back.
May ALLAH (S.W.T) guide us to the right path and make us willing to understand, practice and preach the most true Deen ISLAM. (Aameen)

@ Aqsa Sister
you answer to my comments has been very well answer by Naf.
About forgiving, Allah Likes to forgive and has asked to forgive people, if anyone harm me or my family than i can forgive, but anyone attacks on my religion than i don’t have any right to forgive anyone.
And we are not allowed to change even a single word of our deen, if anyone does so, he is out the circule of Islam so we have to be very very carefull.
Aqsa, ” You can have your own opinion, I can have mine.” and this is not the way,
Either convince or be convinced.
you just told us.”And bytheway, that draw Muhammad (S.A.W) page is back now so ha, it really didnt work”
so now this proves that facebook doesn’t realy care about muslim’s emotions. so are you still going to defend facebook, and are still going to say that court’s decision was wrong? If didn’t worked than we have to find anyother.
Erm, I’m definitely not convinced. -.-
Muslim emotions? I didn’t get all emotional after seeing that page. True, it did make a kinda mad but I talked to the people on there instead of going all crazy and creating unnecessary trouble.
What about all the sites on faceboo which are actually with Islam? I’ve seen a lot of them on there as well. I mean, if you actually think every single person in the world will respect your religion and views, then I’m sorry you’re wrong. :/
@ Haider:
we are not ANTI-JEWS. :S. we are just protesting against their actions. So, cool it, really.
And of course we can have our own opinions. -.-
@Haider & Aqsa: May ALLAH pak give us hidayah & wisdom to understand the teachings of Islam in the way it is required.
I really feel sorry for my Muslim brothers and sisters who are insisting the FB back. they are just continuing to tease the anti FB and it was started by those cursed non muslims. so please please dont carry on with their mission. please
and we have to make every person respect our religion. we will be questionable for that. atleast we have to try and ALLAH pak will help inshaALLAH….. and for the person who dishonor the prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) there is no 2nd option for us but taking head off shoulders and inshaALLAH we will do it as Ghazi Ilm Din Shaheed did it. May ALLAH give us strength of Eemaan. (aameen)
Banning facebook didn’t do Pakistan any good except earn them a reputation of intolerant extremists. I mean come one, did banning facebook in pakistan help in anyway? NO. Infact i just closed our eyes towards reality. Whenever anyone brings out THIS side of the argument, people usually get enraged saying ” what if someone insulted your mother like that? ” I mean wtf people, if someone did insult my mom like that i would have enough dignity to not insult his / her mom back in retaliation. Its like ” YOU BROKE MY TOY, IM GUNNA BREAK YOURS”
Just because we cant see the page, doesn’t mean the rest of the world cant. Even Islam tells us to be tolerant.
Are’nt there millions of other groups insulting christianity or hindiuism or other religions? Instead of facing facts and realities , we ban them. REAL MATURE :/
See, what muslims want is that nobody should insult THEM. I mean just DEAL WITH IT. By banning facebook all we did was give the cartoonists the satisfaction of knowning they got to us. Wouldn’t it be better if we just ignored it? I mean they cant go on insulting us if they dont get any response or retaliation. peace.
Naf, enough with the religion. We get it, you love your God. I’m sure everyone else here loves him as much as you do. We’re trying to debate freedom of choice here. The government decides to ban a social networking website over some stupid cartoons, while ignoring the negative impact this ban has (read some of my previous comments).
You’re going to run into blasphemous stuff on the internet all the time. Not everyone is going to agree with your viewpoint, and a fair share of people are going to be dicks. That doesn’t mean you just ban the website. Why not just ban the whole internet then?
You should all learn to rise above. “Don’t let the haters stop you from doing your thang!”
Also, some people mentioned that facebook deleted the ‘Everyone Celebrate Holocaust Day’ within 24 hours while it didn’t delete the Everybody Draw Mohammad Day.
The Holocaust was the worst recorded genocide in History, and it killed between 11 - 17 million people. Why would anyone want to celebrate such an event, unless you’re a racist asshole.And how can anyone compare it to a bunch of stupid drawings made by a few thousand bored people on facebook?
Also, most of the people who made the drawings are athiests. So calling them ‘Jews’ and ‘Hindus’ doesn’t help anything.
Americans place their freedom of speech above everything else - it’s as simple as that. :/
As for those who are against the ban on Facebook, all of you need to dwell some time on the past, particularly, 2005-2006.
@Ammeratron: i am talking what is most important for me you shudnt hav stomachache for that…..
Moreover if you say that there are many benefits i have simple 1 question. this ban is not good how you prove it. i have seen million of people in pakistan hurt n are protesting….many people went to court and got it banned…..why dont you with half dozen of your supporters go to tell the court and also to the rest of citizen that it is not good to ban the site……you and all your supporters just reply to this…..
How do you know we haven’t already? Thousands of people all over Pakistan are starting a counter-revolution. That doesn’t mean you cant continue to comment on this blog.
You guys got what you wanted though, didn’t you? Then why are you still here, day after day?
@ Aqsa, sister
You didn’t feel anything? than i feel sorry for you… you are not convinced, i can see that but counter arguments are convincing aswell.
that page was delete but now its back… FACEBOOK MANAGEMENT is cirminal, they have committed a crime for which punishment is must and each one who is supporting facebook, they are supporting the cirminals of islam.
Oh really…….i havent heard of any petition logged in the court as yet and neither i have seen on any of tv or news channel that there has been a protest for the rights by a bunch of ……
And we are here just to tell the rest of Humanity to come to peace and be satisfied as we are Alhamdulilah…..All people talking in favour of this event are away from Islam and are depressed you can check all the above comments. We are happy Alhamdulilah.
Naf ur completely right , but brother ‘deactivating’ should be done , not ‘banning’ ….. By deactivating u show ur love and ur support to the cause , but by banning u show that aswell, but you stop people like Ameertron to access facebook …. so the people who disagree are also causing this havok , thats why this is wrong ….. deactivating should be done though
Naf and Muhammad, you really don’t have to feel sorry for anyone. Just because someone is against the ban doesn’t mean they’re in favour of that page. :/
Asqa, I’m sorry if i offended you, I was just tell you, what you said, You said “I didn’t get all emotional after seeing that page”.
Look sister! They have again uploaded that page. Who has uploaded that page? “FACEBOOK”
Maybe you haven’t played close enough attention, Naf.
And it is possible to be against something, and use reason and logic to debate the issue, rather than to simply ban it. I didn’t like that page, but I didn’t overreact to the point of banning facebook entirely, which is just another stupid thing to add to the repertoire of blunders made by Pakistan.
@Muhammad, how do you know they uploaded that page? Did you log into facebook? Tsk tsk.
No
News and bloger are the source of information, just google it and you will find about it
Just FYI. Facebook reported that 80% of profiles are still being accessed by Pakistanis.
Twitter just started experiencing problems because of the sudden increase in users. The ban in Pakistan is the main reason for this.
This is just two groups of idiots arguing for things they supposedly believe in. The idiots with their freedom of speech argument and the other idiots with their narrow-minded response.
Im truly convinced wid Naf…
FACEBOOK should b banned. Its hard spendin days widut it, bt dey hav truly insulted our religion!!
more than 35000ppl reported it, bt FB took no action!!
wtf kiya bol rahe ho hame fb ki zarorat hai my god mar jaye ge plz open itX(

@Ameeratron: hey, as far as ai know, Quiad’s vision was a “state based on principles of Islam”, that is what we learnt. this was also said in one of his pre-independence addresses(google it! ;))
and yeah i am with you guys in lifting the ban from facebook. it should be lifted! enough of teaching-them-a-lesson!
@ Amir bahi
please correct your information, those pages were down for two, now they have again uuploaded them. Google it
@Sidra, check on wikipedia. He wanted a country ruled by the fundamentals of British law. Also, the “Pakistan ka matlab kia, la illa ha illalah” quote wasn’t said by him. It was made later on.
@ Ameeratron
Look when Pakistan came into being we had no constitution, no law but british law. Pakistan ka matlab kia, la illa ha illalah, Was also not quoted by Quaid , but Pakistan means, “Pak logon ki Pak Sarzameen”, Pak is basically the word use to address Clean and Poise Muslim. It automatically justifies Pakistan ka matlab kia, la illa ha illalah and You Know Allah Created Pakistan 27th of Ramzan night, What do you think it is just a co-incidence? He said at many forums that “state based on principles of Islam”, (Google it). Don’t just make decision based upon Wikipedia only. And brother Only Quaid’s Efforts were not involved in Coming Pakistan in to being; our forefathers have fought for the cause.
But this not the forum to discuss this issue,
we are discussing ban on face book.
Pakistan ka matlab kia, la illa ha illalah
Haqan
Brother! people who are saying Ban facebook, many of them are keeping limits of mannerism in viwe. so please mind your language,
I’m gald That you do accpet that facebook should have been banned.. but why other 4 sites, i also don’t know about internet being blocked, those who demand this, the are wrong.
Erm guys, Jinnah made Pakistan for the muslims and the minorities, not just the muslims. (:
Justice for everyone. :DD
He wasn’t all biased like you guys. Some of you seem to hate people who aren’t muslims.
@ Aqsa
Non Muslims have all the rights to live their live in an Islamic State, When we say “state based on principles of Islam”. It automatically justifies that a state where minorities would also have rights to live their lives, because islam define rules for them aswell But before advocating for non Muslims we need to study those rules aswell.
We are not allowed to hate any person, but the one who is wrong ether muslim or non muslim
I didn’t exactly understand your last post but I never hate anyone based on what their religion is. I think thats your job. :L
@ Aqsa
sister no no, i ‘m saying, that you hate based on religion,
you said
“Some of you seem to hate people who aren’t muslims”.
i ‘m just telling you, according to the teachings of our deen, we are not allowed to hate non muslim those do so, for no reasons they are wrong.
Guys what are you fighting over now….another issue. well Islam is the best protector of minorities….who else haaan tell me which other country does the same.
In pakistan you will see all religions practice as per their freedom.
where you guys get lost when Hijab (A wajib in Islam) is banned in France, When minarets are disallowed in europe and thousands of other examples….cummonnnn dont now say this ke Pakistan is not taking care of minorities.
Rahee baat kay pakistan ka maqsad kia tha ya hay so guys Pakistan is much much below than the religion. we have to think about things as a muslim first and then as a pakistani.
so dont mix all this
hmmmm…. that’s your job? did i say, i hate anyone who is non muslim. I hate a person who hate islam who is wrong… that’s it… I’m not hating anyone. Non-Muslims are also creature of Allah. who Knows when they embrace Islam. even they don’t, we can’t hate…
Definition of WE
1 used by a speaker to refer to himself or herself and one or more other people considered together.
2 people in general.
So
i ‘m sorry sister if i couldn’t make my self clear. well this not forum.. we are discussing ban on Facebook
1 more thing:
As an example in france muslims are in minority right???……..there are muslims who are french nationals agreed?????
now those minority french people are not even allowed to practice their religion in france.
now come to Pakistan, FB is not a religion of minorities so all people who talk in favour of minority and the whole world media who is talking against Pakistan now shall realize first:
Thant Pakistan has blocked FB it does not deny any religous right of any minority and what happened in france is much more worse than this.
so all should first stand against this law of france and then comes Pakistan.
The only thing is that all are just scared of tru muslims even Pakistani moderated muslims are afraid that if a real muslim government will come then how they will enjoy all those western curses which they do each day.
so matter is clear, the people who are just influenced by all forces but Islam are talking in favor of FB and somebody who have even a small respect and love for Prophet Muhammad will sacrifice his/her each and everything for it. (Inshaa, ALLAH)
We’ve gone off topic here.
We were debating Pakistan’s stance on the ban, not religion.
Why Pakistan have this stance, coz Pakistan is an Islamic state.
India have more muslims than PAK but its not officially banned there (even my muslims brother and sisters are trying hard and may ALLAH give them reward for this) coz its not Islamic state.
i just wanted to clarify… nothing else
Its a high time and we Pakistanis should start behaving like mature adults and also realize that imposing a permanent ban on social networking and other major websites would only going to make a matter worse.
Just because of some sick minded individuals the so called dignified Judiciary of Pakistan shouldn’t have blocked the whole medium. this world is filled with good and evil it’s upto us to choose between the good and bad. As a matter of fact Facebook has lot to offer because of FB Muslims and Non-Muslims were interacting with each other and lot of misconceptions about Pakistanis and Muslims being ill-literate, In-tolerant, extremists and terrorists were being cleared. We forgot about those countless groups, forums and videos which were promoting the positive image and proper message of Islam on Facebook and YouTube
And not to forget because of YouTube we came across some wonderful eye openers such as ‘The Arrivals’. and I wonder why are we even believing that they are drawing our Beloved Prophet(P.B.U.H) so pathetic of us to even believe that. We should be courageous enough to say right on their faces that this stupid drawing of yours can never be our Holy Prophet(P.B.U.H) even believing that they are drawing Him is a sin and by imposing a ban these websites we have restricted ourselves behind walls where no one can hear our protest. It is nothing but a foolish decision.
@Muhammad Atif
i fhink tuje khud se bi nafrat oti o gi jis m ryt? :P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P
Well.. i read many as many comments as i could.. well i could make only one conclusion that this Guy/Girl Ameeratron is a Stubborn Mentally Sick Person.. Who is i guess not a Muslim.. who has no Values and is trying to be some Secular person.! He has No Value for Mohammed and Muslims and for the Country.. People like these should be given Free Tickets and Visas and should be Kicked out of Pakistan. Pakistan does not require such Immature people with Sick mind and Sick mental Approach! No need to Argue him or anyone.. Facebook, youtube and all other 200 Websites are Blocked for a good cause. Do what ever, say what ever, Use your Liberty of Speech.. nothing will change.. High Court wouldn’t take back its decision!! Keep on doing things like these.. keep on facing Losses.. Mostly Jews, Atheist People and Hindus are involved in such activities. No Christian would do stuff like that.. and you see Mark Zuckerberg(the owner of facebook) had to say sorry.. she was facing a big BIG loss and is afraid to see more Problems.. poor Lad.. Well GREAT JOB HIGH COURT.. WE TOTALLY APPRECIATE!!
Mustupha, that was pretty low of you to say all that. You can’t just call someone mentally sick because they have a different opinion. And just because a person isn’t Muslim doesn’t mean they’re not Pakistani so that free ticket/visa thing was rather immature, to be honest.
You need to accept the fact that not everyone in this world thinks the same way as you do. Each to their own, mate. (:
@Mustupha: If my refusal to conform to the beliefs of mindless goons like yourself makes me a “stubborn mentally sick” person. This is just the think I’m talking about. You all claim to be such good Muslims and yet cannot stand to bear the fact that there are people with different ideas and views as yourself. What did you think, that everyone in the world is going to agree with your contorted and hypocritical vision of reality? Grow up. They block Facebook and youtube for ‘blasphemous’ content but don’t block youporn and fuckbook? Seriously? You think blocking the website is going to change anything? The page is still there, so what is this going to prove, apart from the fact that the internet users of this country are a bunch of whiny over-sensitive prats? If you all were secure in your religion, you would have just ignored it and moved on, because the benefits of facebook far outnumber some stupid fan page, but nooo, lets all overreact and block the bloody thing. Also, if you think this boycott is going to break Facebook’s economy, think again. It’s just going to cost M.Zuckerberg about 0.75 million dollars; milk money.
@Aqsa, thanks for that
OOOh…! Well we don’t really care what world thinks and how world reacts.. and Porntube and Fuckbook are not as widely used as Facebook and youtube are used in Pakistan.. and it does not have Insulting Material about our Beloved Prophet!
And yess no doubt we are over sensitive when it comes to our Prophet.. Well there should have been an Reaction.. Ignoring it makes no sense.. and 0.75$ million you wish.. Facebook has already faced a Loss for about 10 billion Dollars.. and that is one reason Mark Zuckerberg Apologized dude!! And how can a Good Muslim Ignore such a Thing.. You are not a Muslim so you cannot understand our feelings!!
@ Aqsa: well i really don’t want every one to think the way i do.. and i aint advising him to be kicked out because he is not a Muslim.. but because he has no feelings, no emotions, no Patriotism for the country..! i aint calling him mentally sick just because he doesn’t agree with me.. i m calling him that because his Views are not Valid.. and what ever i call him or say to him doesn’t make me Low.. Liberty of speech remember??
and PEOPLE… Blocking facebook aint an Issue… Who Cares… Blocked or Not?? we are still living our lives the way we were before it had been Blocked.. Well to be Honest it is really Beneficial for me as i have my exams going on nowadays so i wouldn’t have to waste my time on facebook.. We waste Hours on Facebook.. so lets do something good in those Hours we used to waste on Facebook!!!

Come On people.. there are other many issues in Pakistan.. Lets worry about them..
Who are you to judge whether my views are ‘valid’ or not? Doesn’t your religion teach you not to discriminate. I guess that makes you a bad Muslim then. tut tut. My views aren’t invalid simply because they contradict your own. Don’t shrug me aside just because I’m not Muslim. I have as much right to being in this country as you do.
And if you check, ’sex’ is the most googled word in Pakistan. People go to porn sites in Pakistan more often than they go to facebook, so don’t make up face facts.
“there are other many issues in Pakistan.. Lets worry about them..”
Exactly. This government should worry about providing electricity, education, healthcare, food and water, homes, etcetera to everyone - rather than worrying about blocking websites. Priorities.
Mustapha, I don’t think you know him so you cant say he has ‘no feelings, no emotions’. I mean, thats not humanly possible, mate. :L
Obviously, you think his views aren’t valid because you don’t agree with them.
Yeahh man, freedom of speech. Just like you can say whatever you want, so can I. So yup, I think you did stoop very low when you said all that.
Ameeratron, you’re welcomee.
I can’t help but ask why Mustapha excluded Christians from the list of those involved in such activities.
Just wondering. o.o
i lyk d way Aqsa and ameeratron goin ….v really need such Pakistanis ..
long liv ppl
nothing is banned ! and they can never ban all the sites , both facebook and youtube is just working fine you just have to know which softwares are able to bypass them , and there are many which cab bypass all ip and url based bans !
in case of permenant ban i know a lot of people who can still acess them ! than whats the point in placing the ban in the first point !
i think they are banning it permanently after 31st ! both the sites are the information source is well placed in the it sector of pakistan !
@ Aqsa.. Thanx.. Keep using your Liberty.. i would love to read some sweet stuff from you thats All i can say to you..!
Well Bro if i was rude to you.. i am sorry about that i really did not mean to Offend you or something..!.
@ Ameeratron: Dude i never did any Discrimination.. and i never said i am a Very good Religious Muslim.. And yea May be that sex thing you are saying is Right.. but you know My whole Family is on Facebook.. Even my Granny uses Facebook.. she is like 75 years Old.. so i am saying Facebook is used by everyone!! now i wont expect my 75 Year Old Granny to Watch Porn.
And yes you are so Right about what Pakistani Govt should worry about we have Millions of Issues but you know they should worry about these things too.. !! and you know Facebook is not Banned in Pakistan only.. It is already Banned in China and Vietnam.. But look at them … they Blocked Facebook as it contained Stuff against their Country.. Then how could we Ignore it when it contained stuff which Insulted Our Prophet.. Try to think over it dude.. i aint Shruggin you aside because you are not a Muslim.. but its true you cannot Understand our Feelongs for Mohammed.. thats true and you are trying to turn your face away from the Truth..! Could you tell me what are you? Hindu? Christan? Atheist? Please tell me that!!
Freedom of speech in no way means freedom to attack the feelings of people following any religion.Our Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.W) always preached about respecting everyone’s religion and feelings.This act happening on FB can never be justified by covering it under the category of freedom of speech.
As for the FB addicts,I can claim to be the biggest addict of FB as I spend maximum time of my day and night on it,but when it comes to an issue like this,we must all refrain from using it like we refrain from so many things we love,during the month of Ramadan.Our should should be strong enough to fight for a cause & we should not give ourselves in to an addiction like social networking,which I agree was very entertaining but not something that we just can’t live without.
Atleast the people responsible for it should know we do not surrender our faiths to addictions like FB, and sacrifices like this will make them think twice before taking an “Unnecessary pangaa” with the muslims.
If not for anything else,I’m glad that this addiction could be helped with this step.It isn’t a good thing to be wasting time on something which is not worth wasting so much time on.It was becoming more of a platform for “show off” or to “spite” others.
Other than that,everyone has a right to have his/her own opinions and we should not try and convince anyone on this forum forcefully.Faith is with-in our hearts & cannot/should not be imposed on others.
ohh.. I totally Agree with you Reema.. ! they are Using Freedom of Speech in a Wrong way.. and ofcourse we cannot Surrender our Faiths for such useless addiction!!!
haha.. Unnecessary Panga.. Nicely Put.. well now they wil think Thrice.. lol…!!!
@Mustapha: I cud not think of a better word than pangaa because this really is something totally not needed.There is no reason to hold such a competition or a contest.This sure was a pangaa as they bloody well know what it would make the muslims feel.
Partly I also blame the muslims for the image that has been portrayed in this world especially again by the recent “Time square incident”.People now think they are justified in whatever they say or think about muslims.
Whatever the case maybe,we must put our foot down on issues likes these and stand by our faith at all cost.Giving up FB addiction is the least that we can contribute to pay gratitude to our religion & our beloved Prophet(P.B.U.H)
Haha, thanks Sun-naw
Mustapha, I don’t use my ‘liberty’ in any wrong way so don’t give me that.
did i really say that?? no so please shhh!!
FREEDOM OF SPEECH…..!
HuH..! where was this freedom of rights and speech when in france they banned scarf for muslim women and also imposed penalty on wearing veil… Where was this Freedom when building minarate Mosques was banned in Sweden by there parliment…. Where is this Freedom For black Race and discrimination they still have to face in many fields just becoz of there colour and creed. Not the last but the least question arises where is freedom of speech when thousand of prisoners many innocent in Gutonamo Bay prison (Cuba) are given very strick punishment and very unthinkable without any court trials…..! ALL this freedom of speech vanished ONLY on one word that IS “Matter of National security” LOL….! which is BULLshit and freedom of speech is bullshit..! When western world say freedom of speech,They are being HYpocrites nothing more…!
SO IF u MUslims can’t defend ur relegion against such a sensitive matter then none of you over here has the right to say that facebook should not be banned….! IT should be banned for once and for Good….! China banned facebook Just because they said something stupid about their ancient culture and ancestors ……! and WAT they DID TO US …… HUh!! they said something in which islam has clearly indicated to stand and Fight for that so then why we people SO LOW and dont have any moral values……!!!
Height of double standards……
When u attack black people, they call it RACISM.
When u attack Jewish people, they call it ANTISEMITISM.
When u attack women, they call it SEXISM.
When u attack homosexuality, they call it INTOLERANCE.
When u attack ur country, they call it TREASON.
When u attack a religious sect, they call it HATE SPEECH.
But.
When they attack the greatest human ever existed our beloved Prophet Muhammad(SAWW), they call it FREEDOM OF SPEECH..
Plz act strongly against dis. May ALLAH (S.W.T) Give us strength of eeman to get gustakh e Rasul (S.A.W) disappear from da face of earth.(Aameen)
Batlaa do gustaakh e Nabi (S.A.W) ko Ghairat e Muslim Zinda hai
Deen pe marr mitnay ka jazba kal bhi tha aur aaj bhi hai. (Alhamdulilah)
@Mustapha, Sister Reema & Faizan: Jazzak ALLAH brothers and sisters for your feeling and and cumming up to defend a good action and standing against the supporters, for whom it doesnt matter that what is going on against our beloved prophet Muhammad (S.A.W), for them a good time pass on FB is more important (Shame on them)
May ALLAH bless us all and show us right path and give us the real vision and give us strendth of Eemaan to cope up with all the anti ISlamic forces. (Aameen)
@Naf: Man i am in love with your Views… you are rite about that Racism Sexism thing… Thats so true..
well no need of Thanks.. i think thats what every Muslim should do.. except for running away like Cowards!!
And Thanks for the Appreciation!
@Maxim: Well Christians also did not support that Stupid Goddamn Contest.. They even appealed to the Pope.. so i am positive about Christians.. Specially The Catholics.. their Religion does not allow them all this.. But Atheist people have no religion and Jews.. uff.. what can i say.. they have been doing so many things against Muslims…!
Sigh. You guys are too naive to see the bigger picture. Live and let live, I suppose. I just think it’s sad that your views are forcibly imposed on others.
i think amreetatron is right.we as muslim should live and let others live n we should face all the criticism on our religion as other peoples do.like if i say which i firmly believe that hinduism and sikhism are 2 biggest fake religion in world n its just befooling so many people in world then i think no one should mind it…..
I second that
pakistani Govt. ny facebook n youtube sy ban hta dia hai or un makhsous pages pr still ban hai jn pr gustakhana harkaat ki gai thein……i think Govt. ko apna 31st May waaly decision k baad koi or action lyna chahiaey tha……mery kheyal mai ye jald baazi ki hai Govt. ny…..
Haha.. rite Dr Afzal..
@Pakistani: No ban nhein hataya.. people are using it Illegally!!
Face book, you tube and many other sites are blocked by PTA. It proves that few fundamentalist including people from institutions can hijack 15 crore people. Simply it is a jungle law. We respect and love our prophet but how come we are the most undeveloped nation on earth. Most corrupt nation No food no education no healthcare no higher education no utilities . Live on begged money and eat from khairat but our ego is sky high. Shut down everything in this country and from jungle we move to stone age. Believe me this society is falling apart. people are running away. For God sake wake up build this country economically socially militarily so that people give us regards. come out of fools paradise.
