Blasphemy

Blasphemy is a crime; no one should be allowed to slander the good name of our Prophet (PBUH). But our blasphemy laws border close to the blasphemous themselves when the love for the Prophet is allowed to be used for ulterior motives and, perhaps, xenophobia. Our blasphemy laws should protect the good name of our Saviour, not be confusing enough for anyone to take advantage of. The recent death sentence of a Christian woman highlights this. She should be provided ample protection before her case moves to the higher court of appeal.
