no facebook
Many people have started saying that Pakistan should not have banned facebook but I think after reporting the page to the Facebook we had no other option left. This will not be a lifetime ban but was meant to say “we are hurt”.
On the other hand this page may not have got so much publicity in the first place if muslims would not have responded to it. But we made it a point to spread it among us like fire. This is why it is said that publicity of the such things make them common and more acceptable with time. we better be prepared for the such storms in future, emotionally, technically and politically.
Whatever we did benefitted facebook more then anybody else, they had their name splashed over the front pages of every newspaper and that too free of cost! This is why acting in the interest of their business they did to not respond to over 100,000 people protesting and that too according to their own terms and conditions of the “Facebook”. Still I do not think we should be apologetic of our actions like Mr Adil Najam said by “making an international public spectacle of ourselves”.
Reaction of the Pakistani ban:
Even the creator Seattle cartoonist, Molly Norris, whose satirical cartoon calling for an “Everybody Draw Mohammed Day” inspired the Facebook page, said in a post on her website that she meant her work only to be a commentary on the “South Park” controversy. “I made a cartoon about the television show South Park being censored,” she wrote. “I never started a Facebook page. I apologize to people of Muslim faith and ask that this ‘day’ be called off.”
Even the US has deplored blasphemous images of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) on Facebook as “deeply offensive to both Muslims and non-Muslims alike”, saying America does not condone expressions that lead to violence or hatred. The US State Department also expressed respect for any actions that need to be taken under Pakistani law to protect their citizens from offensive speech, but expected a balance between restricting offensive material and ensuring flow of information for the Internet users.

Now when the page is removed I hope it does not resurface again in future…..I know facebook will be back. Hey I want to know what my friends are doing today, who is posting new pictures and who needs our support to lift their spirits! See you all soon

Us Muslims keep using Facebook even though they supported the blasphemy of our Beloved Prophet Muhammad PBUH. We should move to using a Muslim Social Network. MUSLIMS-UNITE is a new social network for Muslims that has the same features as Facebook + more.
Their overall purpose is to create a central hub that portrays a Muslim Character in its truthful form, creates awareness on issues impacting our Ummah, allows users to share their opinions on topics and to learn more from each other about Islam.
I kindly request you to join the “Muslims-Unite” Network to avoid being take advantage of again. This is a global effort to unite Muslims using the power of Technology.
