Brother, I wanted to ask if Muslims are offended when Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is being mocked, how should we respond to it? Is it correct if we condemn the person mocking or do we have to stay calm and brush it off?
The Quran’s message is clear with regards to dealing with such situations; we should ignore them and turn away from them. No good is served by getting upset and condemning the person(s), since this will only make them feel more powerful. Since they do not have the decency to respect what we consider holy and sacred, they will enjoy the feeling that they are causing us anger and upset.
They are those whom God knows what is in their hearts. So ignore them, and admonish them, and say to them concerning themselves penetrating words.
The Quran, verse 4:63.
When you encounter those who gossip about Our revelations, turn away from them, until they engage in another topic. But should Satan make you forget, do not sit after the recollection with the wicked people.
The Quran, verse 6:68.
Follow what was revealed to you from your Lord. There is no god but He. And turn away from the polytheists.
The Quran, verse 6:106.
Be tolerant, and command decency, and turn away from the ignorant.
The Quran, verse 7:199.
So proclaim openly what you are commanded, and turn away from the polytheists.
The Quran, verse 15:94
