Dear Fazal,

The islamic references that insult your prophet and that show he was involved in killing, plundering and raping are the following:

- Sahih Bukhari

- Sahih Muslim

- Sirat- rasoul-allah biography of the prophet by Ibn Ishaq

- Kitab at-tabaqat al kabir by Ibn Sa'd

- Islamic history by Tabari, volumes 6 to 9

I will pick out one topic: it shows how the prophet encouraged rape of married women by his sahaba though those same sahaba were reluctant to do so:

From Sahih Muslim, Book 008, Number 3432:

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah her pleased with him) reported that at the Battle of Hanain Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) sent an army to Autas and encountered the enemy and fought with them. Having overcome them and taken them captives, the Companions of Allah's Messenger (may peace te upon him) seemed to refrain from having intercourse with captive women because of their husbands being polytheists. Then Allah, Most High, sent down regarding that:" And women already married, except those whom your right hands possess (iv. 24)" (i. e. they were lawful for them when their 'Idda period came to an end).

As you see reference is made to Ayah 4.24 from Surat-an-nisa which gives a license to all muslim men to rape their slave women or women taken captive in war. Didn't they teach this at your primary school in Pakistan. This is what my wife once told me: I didn't get this in my Islamic religion class. I thought that Surah-an-nisa was an example of how WELL women are treated in Islam? One guy told me that this ayah shows how merciful Allah is to take care of the sexual needs of slave-women or captives. And he was not joking!

You can find translations of the most important hadith in English on the website of the muslim student association of Americ (MSA) on the following website: http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/hadithsunnah/muslim/008.smt.html#008.3432

Now, I doubt if those students who painstakingly translated the Hadith Sahih have the intention of insulting your prophet. Maybe you can send them a note of bring them to court.

Kind regards and have a nice day
