JAKARTA - The Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) encourages police officers to arrest the owner of the Sunnah Nabi Youtube account who is considered to have committed blasphemy against the Prophet MuhammadSAW.

"I ask the police, especially to stop the circulation of YouTube/videos and arrest those who produced them and those who first circulated them," said MUI Deputy Chairman Anwar Abbas as reported by ANTARA, Friday, August 18.

Anwar Abbas's statement was in response to the circulation of an animated film uploaded by the Sunah Nabi Youtube account with the title "Nabi Muhammad Planned for Marriage".

According to Anwar, the film contains several irregularities that corner the Prophet Muhammad saw, one of which is the visualization of the face of the Prophet which is prohibited in Islam.

He explained that at the end of the video/youtube, it was said by the Prophet Muhammad that he was a criminal with strong military power.

Karena itu, kata Anwar, sang kawalin telah mengajak dan mempengaruhi para penontonnya dengan membuat pertanyaan, Apakah kalian benar-benar berpikir bahwa orang ini dapat membawakan kalian masuk selatan'?

Buya Anwar emphasized that the story contained in the video was followed from beginning to end, especially when the person concerned showed the figure of the Prophet Muhammad, was very despicable and taboo in Islam.

"We can make a conclusion that this video and Youtube made by the producers is clearly to insult Islam and harass the prophet MuhammadSAW. Of course, all of which will hurt Muslims very deeply," he said.

Currently, the video can still be seen on Youtube but when it comes to the Sunnah Nabi Channel Youtube account, it can't be accessed.
