Question about M.F.Hussain issue

By anonyalkult

As M.F.Hussain has said, leading Hindu leaders have not spoken a word against his paintings, and they should have been the first ones to have raised their voice. The reason for this is of course his depiction of Hindu idols in the nude is a practice already prevalent in Hindu iconography, which is very much visible nowhere more other than the Hindu temples itself. Now doesnt this show that even the Hindu fundamentalist parties retaliating against him were influenced more by Islamic principles of morality, which prohibits not only nudity but even depiction of human figures, than their own culture?

a muslim name doesnot guarantee that the guy follows islam, its teachings and principals. islam exhorts its followers not to revile others religion, lest others revile islam in their ignorance. quran says to the non muslims, to u is ur god and us is our god, u donot pray my god and i will not pray ur god. there is no compulsion in faith. this guy M F Hussain's knowledge of islam is poorer than his knowledge of hinduism( to me seems). surely had he known islam he would have not done what he has done. islam doesnot permit to make images, and this guy paints the female gods of others in nude. being a muslim it pains me that one of us has hurt the religious feelings of our brothers.

An attack on any religion is not a decent act at all and it's not a genuine excuse to do something shameful even it is already in practice...

Why M.F.Hussain poses himself a follower of a religion which does not teach to insult any religion.

I don't think so. I won't bother to explain why. Thank you.

Obviously you don't know anything about why there was an uproar.
