Press Release:
Reformist Muslims Announce a Cartoon and Drawing Competition:
"Muhammad, a Messenger of Peace."
As islamic reformers and progressive muslims, we are announcing an
award for a cartoon/portrait of Muhammad that would depict him
accurately as a human being and a messenger of peace and progress. We
will publish the winning portrait at www.islamicreform.org, www.19.org
and in our upcoming "The Quran: A Reformist Translation." We may also
publish many other submissions of high quality.
Our next step will be to make a computer animated feature film about
Muhammad's life. In that film, Muhammad will be represented by a human
figure, not a camel, as in the movie, "The Message," where Anthony
Quinn played Muhammad's uncle.
To read our reaction to the recent cartoon controversy and our
evaluation of it under the light of the teaching of the Quran, please
