Pictures of Muhammad are not forbidden

Hasan, just take a look at the home page of Islamicity.com.  You'll find several pictures of people ("living things") there.  Are they wrong to display them?

Islam (submission to God) is a continuation of what was sent to the prophets before. Some things were understood and were already in practice. God has said before, to not to make images or idols of living things. And it was practiced by those who knew God and His commands. It is for that reason the Jews and Muslims do not make images or idols of any living thing, let alone of God or holy men, the prophets of God. It was a new deviation, like many other, by those who now call themselves Christians that not only made images and idols of God and the prophets and some others they refer as Saints. Some of the Christians adore them, kneel to them, pray to them, even worship them.

First of all find out what or who a plonker is.

Secondly atheists will four big logs on four sides and the fire will be hotter.:)

I hope you see sense or get guidance from Allah subhana wa Ta'ala before you die so that the above will not occur.

Sure they were not forbidden, at least in historical times.
