"The Kingdom condemns the magazine for mocking Islam and the personality of Prophet Muhammad, the Prophet of guidance and compassion," a Foreign Ministry official said, adding "there is no justification for this deliberate abuse of Islam, hurting the feelings of 1.5 billion Moslems around the world."

-based International Union of Moslem Scholars, headed by Yusuf Al-Qardawi, appealed to Moslems to continue peaceful protests against images of the Prophet Muhammad but "not to resort to any violence."
In a statement released Tuesday, the union urged Islamic countries to submit a draft law to the UN calling for defamation of religions to be outlawed.
The union said the UN should then issue a "law criminalizing contempt of religions and the prophets and all the holy sites." It also called for the West "to protect Moslem communities from attacks, whether they are citizens or residents or visitors."
The union has condemned the publication of offensive material by the magazine.
It said that the new drawing would give "credibility" to the idea that "the West is against Islam" and warned the image would incite further hatred.
