In any case, given your involvement with the J-P Muhammed cartoons
article, I'm sure you can recall what prompted Jyllands-Posten to
solicit those cartoons in the first place.
They've stated, that they couldn't find an illustrator who was prepared
to work on a children's book called "The Qur'an and the life of the
Prophet Muhammad". IMHO this is very questionable. In fact I've bought
a beautifully illustrated childrens book called "Introducing Muhammad"
in Cairo. On page 6 my book states:
WARNING!
Islamic tradition forbids the portrayal
of Prophet Muhammad or any of his Companions.
DECLARATION!
"We agree and comply" - the authors.
