The Satanic Verses was written by Salman Rushide, born in India but now residing (last I heard) in the United Kingdom.

Not sure what you are asking, but the Satanic Verses were written by S. Rushdie who still has a death threat hanging over him for it.

Read the reviews form Muslims, and None Muslims; it sound like it would be a waste of time to read in all levels, religious, literature, false info, and list was to many for me to even try it. I mostly feel sorry, and bitty for the poor old looser! How he would sell his soul for a few gold coins! BTW: His wife left him living him quite miserable. Subhan Allah He who servers the Shytan (Satan) Will find nothing but Misery and in the End the only thing that is left is Allahu Akbar!

Salam rushdie didnt only attack muslims. Here you go.
The book of Salman Rushdi reviled many more beside Islam
and the Prophet.
On (page 461), he states, "****** eats white man's [****]".
On (page 529), he mocked the black brethren by saying "black
**** is bad".
On (page 80) is found: ["the sister ******* British-shits"].
The word [*******] used in his book fifty-two (52) times.
It describes Margaret Thatcher as a [*****], he also mocks her
name by using the word [Toicher] instead of her name
Thatcher. He was also conspiring to have one night of love
with the Queen of England.
Tell me now: who do you think inspired Salman Rushdi
to use these despicable and mean words but Satan ? It is
the same Satan who inspired him to revile the book of the most
merciful one, and describing parts of it as Satanic verses.
Isn't amazing that despite all of these mean and shameful words
in his book, he receives a literary award today as the best among the
play stage among writers and novelists as it was recently
announced in the B.B.C broadcasting.
My argument is not really against a man who is happy being
used by the Devil. He and his low words are so mean that they are
not worthy of rebuttal. Those who deserve countering are those who
supported him, hid him and used his book including the devil himself.
Want the rest? Go to the source.

George Bernard Shaw said about him: "He must be called the Savior of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it much needed peace and happiness". (The Genuine Islam, Singapore, Vol.1, No.8, 1936)
Mahatma Gandhi, speaking on the character of Muhammad (PBUH) says in 'YOUNG INDIA': "I wanted to know the best of one who holds today undisputed sway over the hearts of millions of mankind...I became more than convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet, the scrupulous regard for his pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. When I closed the 2nd volume (of the Prophet's biography), I was sorry there was not more for me to read of the great life."
Diwan Chand Sharma wrote, "Muhammad was the soul of kindness, and his influence was felt and never forgotten by those around him" (D.C. Sharma, "The Prophets of the East", Calcutta, 1935, pp. 12)
Annie Besant, The Life and Teachings of Muhammad, Madras 1932, p. 4:
"It is impossible for anyone who studies the life and character of the great Prophet of Arabia, who knows how he taught and how he lived, to feel anything but reverence for that mighty Prophet, one of the great messengers of the Supreme. And although in what I put to you I shall say many things which may be familiar to many, yet I myself feel whenever I re-read them, a new way of admiration, a new sense of reverence for that mighty Arabian teacher."
