New Delhi: If Prophet Muhammad was alive today, he would have been shocked to see the madness of the ‘Muslim fanatics’ around the world, said Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen on the ongoing controversy over remarks made by former BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma.
“No one is above criticism, no human, no saint, no messiah, no prophet, no god. Critical scrutiny is necessary to make the world a better place,” the Muslim author who says she is an atheist, said.
