The Blasphemy Law: An Analytical Study in the Western and Pakistani Legal Perspectives

تلخیص
Muslim Ummah is facing various issues in the contemporary era. The clash between western world and Muslim world is rapidly increasing day by day. One of the most burning issue is the blasphemy of Prophet of Islām. Despite existence of the blasphemy laws in the modern world, hatred behavior and temptations are in rise. Many verses and Ahādῑth of the Holy Prophet ﷺ have already revealed that Muslim Ummah will face hostility from Jews and Christians. It is said that about a quarter of the world’s countries had anti-blasphemy laws. It is surprising fact that the modern world in spite of giving the message of justice, peace and equality, considers this sensitive issue as a freedom of expression advocating irreverence towards holy personages, sacred artifacts, customs and beliefs. All religions condemn blasphemy. Pakistan also has blasphemy law with the death penalty as its punishment. Some people consider this law faulty and struggling to abolish it. This article elaborates the blasphemy laws in Islamic and western perspective with comparison and due analysis.
