I condemn the killing Hebdo’s cartoonists, 7th January should be declared as “World Cartoonist? Day”

I STRONGLY condemn the killing of four cartoonists from the satirical Charlie Hebdo magazine. Act of violence, barbarity and brutality are against Islamic teaching.

7th January should be declared as “World Cartoonist’s Day” to honour Stéphane Charbonnier, Cabu, Wolinski and Tignous

My stand is clear – every cartoonist should be allowed to criticize parties through his/her cartoons. Any disagreement over the said cartoons should be responded in a civilized manner, i.e intellectual discourses, open debates and other civilized damage-control methods.

Even though we do not agree with the contents, we should respect the cartoonists’ rights to express their views.

Charlie Hebdo recently published a cartoon about an Islamic State leader. In 2011, they also published a series of cartoons about the Prophet Mohamed (pbuh).

In regards to Islamic content issues, as a Muslim myself, I would like to challenge the Muslim authorities around the world to work closer with cartoonists to produce cartoons that can show the true image of Islam – a religion of peace, tolerance and moderation.

Terror is unacceptable in civilized world.

BAHASA MALAYSIA

SAYA mengutuk sekeras-kerasnya pembunuhan empat orang kartunis politik yang berkarya untuk majalah Charlie Hebdo di Peranchis. Kekerasan, kekejaman dan keganasan adalah bertentangan dengan ajaran Islam.

Tarikh 7 Januari haruslah diistihar sebagai “Hari Kartunis Sedunia” sebagai penghormatan kepada keempat-empat mereka iaitu, Stéphane Charbonnier, Cabu, Wolinski dan Tignous.

Pendirian saya adalah jelas – setiap kartunis mesti dibenarkan untuk mengkritik melalui karya-karya mereka. Sebarang ketidakpuasan atau bantahan mengenai kandungan karya-karya tersebut mestilah dijawab melalui perbincangan, perdebatan dan cara-cara yang bertamadun.

Walau pun kita mungkin tidak bersetuju dengan sesebuah karya kartun, kita sepatutnya menghormati hak kartunis untuk memberi pandangan melalui lukisan mereka.

Majalah Charlie Hebdo baru-baru ini dilapor menyiarkan kartun yang mengritik pemimpin Islam. Sebelum ini pada tahun 2011, mereka juga menyiarkan kartun yang mempersendakan Nabi Muhamad.

Berkenaan dengan karya kartun yang mengritik Islam, sebagai seorang Muslim saya mencabar pihak berkuasa Islam untuk berkerja rapat denga kartunis untuk menghasilkan karya-karya kartun yang mempamerkan wajah Islam sebenar – agama yang berlandaskan kemananan, bertimbang rasa dan moderate.

Keganasan tidak boleh diterima dalam dunia yang bertamadun.
