Remember Muslims going on rampage when the Danes did the Muhammad Cartoons, remember Muslims going on rampage when Salman rushdie said some of Muhammad's teachings are wrong.
Why do Muslims say the worship only God when it clearly shows they worship Muhammad.

I don't see Muslims going Crazy when westerners make fun of God. But they go all Jihad when some one makes fun of Muhammad, So why worship Muhammad.

I have to agree with djmantx answer. Why does Allah have to bend over to fullfill all of Muhammad's fetishes. Like having 13 wives at a time. screwing a nine year old. Having 53 sex slaves.

All truth comes from Muhammad if you are Muslim. Allah can not even speak but through Muhammad. Allah is at the mercy of Muhammad. The Muslims only believe what is in agreement with Muhammad. All prophets before Muhammad are corrupt and none come after him. All truth must agree with this man so even Allah is subject to him but Muslims do not see this they believe that the words of the prophets are corrupt so Muhammad spoke for them in the Qu'ran. They believe Muhammad was granted special laws and could marry more women than others in Islam eh was granted special favors by god even in who he married marring his daughter in law which was forbidden but than Allah granted him to change the law especially for Muhammad...Muhammad was the seal of the prophets o no other word can come from God and all truth must be in agreement with this man. Clearly Muhammad is more important than Allah as Allah is totally dependent on Muhammad. and Allah always followed Muhammad's wishes.
anyone who knows the god that is before Muhamamd would clearly see God is not subject to any man but Muslism never knew the true God and have only the words of a sinful and now dead man.

We do not worship Prophet Muhammed. This is a misconception due to your visible ignorance.
He is our prophet. We value him. So if someone comes around and starts making fun of him, we will stand up, and protest. That doesn't mean that we worship him. Even with the whole Salman Rushdie controversy, he claimed the teachings of Prophet Muhammed are wrong, when he didn't even have a reasonable argument. If someone insults our Prophet, we will confront.
We only and only worship Allah (swt)
Likewise, if someone made fun of Jesus, said his teachings are wrong, and made inappropriate cartoons about him, wouldn't you be just a little pissed off !!!

Muslims don't worship Muhammad. He was the seal of the prophets, i.e the last one Allah sent to communicate.
He holds a lot of importance because of that. They don't worship him at all. His works are considered great though. Allah is who they worship, which means "God" in Arabic.
Muslims people got mad at the Danes because Muhammad is not supposed to be depicted. Especially not in a way that is poking fun at him. There are rules in Islam I do not understand because I've not extensively studied it, but you should read about it. Then you'd find your answers to your questions. Maybe you'll find it interesting. I did when I read about Islam.

There is a story about some people without nose.
When they see some children with nose are coming towards them, they think when children will see them children will make fun of them saying nose less people.
One of nose less made a suggestion, before children say some thing start making fun of children, saying look look people with nose are coming.
So your question is also example of nose less people.
Do not take it serious, still you have time, you can follow Jesus and worship only God Almighty, like Muslims.
Follow first commandment of ten commandments.
Repent in front of God Almighty, God is the Most gracious and mercy full.

You've got things ALL wrong. Muslims worship God & respect Muhammad. We do not allow anyone to abuse God nor Muhammad. He is our leader & the one chosen by God. To worship Muhammad is to pray for him, we never do that?
It's a shame that educated people like you ask stupid questions like this! What a shame !!!!

In The name of Allah, The most Gracious, The most Merciful.
The word "Islam" means peace and submission to the Will of the only God worthy of being worshipped. This peace is contentment with yourself and your surroundings that could only be achieved by willfully submitting to God, obeying what He commands and abstaining from what He forbids.
Who Is Allah?
Allah is the name in Arabic for the "One God". Allah is the Creator, Sustainer, Planner and Organizer. He is the only deity that has the right to be worshipped (i.e. praying, supplicating, fasting, etc.). In Islam, the belief in the One God cannot be separated from the acts of worshipping the One God. In other words, it is not enough to simply think you believe in the Oneness of the Creator but that belief must be affirmed by your statement and actions. Example, it would negate ones belief in the Oneness of the Creator if he directs his worship to a man (or any of the other created things).
Who Is a Prophet?
A Prophet is a person who is appointed by God to call the people to the worship and believe in the One God. All Prophets were given miracles by Allah to prove that they were Prophets. For example, Moses was given the miracles to free the Children of Israel, Jesus was given the ability to heal the sick and raise the dead by Allah's’ leave and Muhammad was given the Qur’an which is the everlasting and literal speech of Allah. May Allah send His peace and blessings on all the Prophets. Ameen!
What Is the Qur'an?
The Qur’an is the Last Revelation from your Lord. It was revealed in the pure Arabic language to the Prophet Muhammad and has been kept preserved and unchanged, in its original form. The English interpretation of the Qur’an will be used as reference in this brochure. It is not Allah's' Word rather, it is a general interpretation of the meaning of the Qur’an. The Qur’an confirms the truth in the Torah, Psalms and the Gospel.
Who was Muhammad?
Muhammad is the Final Prophet and Messenger. He was born into the tribe of Quarish in the year 570 AD. His ancestry goes back to the Prophet Ishmael, the son of Prophet Abraham. His father died before his birth and his mother died before he was six. As a young man he was known as Al-Ameen (the trustworthy). He would retreat to a cave outside of Mecca where, he would ponder and reflect about the immoral practices and customs of the Pagan Arabs. He received revelation from the Creator at the age of 40 through the Angel Gabriel. Subsequently, the Revelations came over the period of 23 years and are collectively in the Qur’an
Who Is a Muslim?
One who practices the 5 pillars of Islam and believes in the fundamentals of faith. One can become a Muslim by saying; "Ashadhu An Laa ilaha illa Allah, wa ashadhu anna Muhammad ar-rasulullah." This means, " I bear witness that no deity has the right to be worshipped except Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Final Messenger." All Prophets preceding Muhammad were Muslims. This includes Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses and Jesus. Is there a doubt that these Prophets did not submit their will to the Creator? Allah says in the Qur’an:
" Abraham was neither a Jew or a Christian, but he was a true Muslim and he was not of the idolaters." The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 67.
It is important to note that other religions are derived from the name of a place or a person. Examples of this are: Judaism is derived from the tribe of Judah, Hinduism is from the Indus River, Buddhism is from Goutam Buddha and Christianity is from Jesus Christ. Islam is the only revealed religion and way of life that directly attaches its worshippers to the servitude of the Creator.
Do Muslims Worship Muhammad?
No! Muslims do not worship Muhammad nor do they worship any other Prophets, Saints, or created things. It is not permissible for a Muslim to pray, supplicate, or direct any type of worship to any created thing in rivalry to the Lord of all that exists. Allah says:
" Say (to them Muhammad), ‘I am only a man like you. It has been inspired to me that your God is One God. So whoever hopes for the Meeting with his Lord, let him work righteousness and associate none as a partner in the Worship of his Lord.' " The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 18, Verse 110

Worship means "A feeling of profound love and admiration" if we see Muslim really they worship Muhammad rather to worship God. If any person think a person as God he will do same as Muslim.

its not really worship as much as it is respect. they acknowledge muhammad as the prophet who delivered them unto allah. they still worship allah, but hold great reverence for their savior. many muslims are very devout and see any critisism or joke made at their prophets expense as blasphemy.
