Muhammad’s Cartoon Isn’t the Sin: It is the Ignorance about Muhammad That Is
By Walter Marston
San Francisco, CA

The article written by Zaheer Jan brought tears to my eyes. I have quite a few Muslim friends here in San Francisco and they are the most wonderful people that I have been associated with. They are God-fearing people. When I see them praying as many times as their Holy Book tells them to, it shames me. Because, I don’t seem to have the faith that they have in God.
Their generosity is second to none. I can say this with absolute conviction. My wife, who had a stroke in July of last year, is still in hospital and these lovely people have not only called frequently to find out about her progress but have also gone to visit her, and most of all, they have gone as far as giving me food regularly knowing well that I don’t have the time to cook.
I am absolutely sure that these are the people who will be welcomed in the heavenly Kingdom when they pass away from this world with the words of God: WELCOME MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT.
In conclusion, I would request Zaheer Jan to try to have this article published in Pakistan, where those who have enticed others to violate their Prophet’s teachings, will begin to regret their sinfulness.
I also wish that somehow this article could be published in our newspapers in the States so that all of us Americans could take a lesson from it.
