What would Prophet Mohammed have done?
Keep to forgiveness (O Mohammed),
and enjoin kindness,
and turn away from the ignorant.

During his lifetime, Prophet Mohammed endured insults and ridicule on a daily basis. His opponents mocked his message and used physical violence to stop him from challenging the status quo.
