Facebook is Going to Get Banned in Pakistan

After clear discrimination of Facebook for not banning blasphemous Fan Page, Ministry of Information Technology and Telecom has directed PTA to ban Facebook Page in Pakistan, told us sources close to authority.

A reliable source, who is in direct contact with Secretary MoIT, told ProPakistani that ministry has issued the directive to PTA to ban said blasphemous content in the country.

Ministry of Information Technology directs PTA for banning any URL or whole of website in case of any inappropriate content available on it.

It is yet to be ascertained if the whole Facebook will be banned or just a single URL will be filtered. In both the situations, Step is inline with thousands of Facebook users and according to their urge of boycotting Facebook on May 20th.

It merits mentioning here that a Fan Page on Facebook is encouraging its members to draw Prophet Mohammad’s drawings (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa-aal-hi-Wasallam).

Despite thousands of requests, Facebook didn’t put this page down even it violated Facebook’s own terms of services.

Update: (3:14 PM – May 18, 2010) We have received confirmation from PTA that directive has been issued to all ISPs for blocking a single URL (of the particular Fan Page). Order was issued by Yawar Yasin, Director Enforcement PTA.

PTCL has confirmed the recipient of the order and said that specific URL is in process of being blocked throughout its network.

Update: (8:24 PM – May 18, 2010) Facebook fan page in question is still opening on various ISPs, however, reports are coming that specific URL is inaccessible on selected ISPs. Complete blackout is expected later tonight.

    People! if you ban fb in pakistan, that still won’t remove all the stuff about Prophet PBUH. It would only make you not be able to see or do anything about it. Ignoring a fact doesn’t remove it. Doing actions against it does.

    Hamid Says:

    This is a great step from PTA and should be appreciated because there’s been some nasty doing in facebook against our Holy Prophet Hazrat Mohammed (P.B.U.H). The site should be banned for indefinite period until and unless Facebook apologizes for the bad doing against Prophet !! as a muslim we all love Hazrat Mohammed (SAW) and we are ready to even sacrifice our lives for prophet as it is our duty to respect and protect from the evil and devil in the world !!

    Salaam

    i agree with Mahmood Tahir, actions speak louder than words, protest against it sign petitions .. blocking it won’t make that group vanish in to thin air .. unite as one an take action, the more people to protests againsr the group the better .. banning facebook in pakistan means we love out on millions of people who ca protest against the group … in this case NUMBERS matter!!

    JazakAllah!

    Fatima Says:

    Banning facebook wont solve anything. Did you know that if you google anything Islamic or post in an international forum, you will get hate-comments? You need to get desensitized. You need to not let it bother you anymore. They hate us so much because of the idiotic and extremist activities we do. Because of the murders…suicide bombs and killing children and schools..and numerous other things that arent even ALLOWED in Islam.

    Yes. They hate you. Grow up and face it. Don’t get angry like children. That will prove them right. Instead, use your brain, and calm down. Control your anger. Use enlightenment, knowledge and polite words to make your point.

    Making a good impression is the only way to prove them wrong.

    Also I suggest a clearer understanding of Islam. I noticed ppl calling other ppl non-muslims…did you know that you cannot do that in Islam?

    WE aren’t allowed to view the images, to prevent us from subconsciously talking to the prophet (PBUH) or worshiping it. They were never told not to draw. They have every right to. Simply don’t look at the images, that’s it.
    They are childish and immature. So leave them to their devices. You know they are wrong.
    Fight that not with anger, or stupidity, but with wisedom. Why not instead spread the day spreading correct fact about the prophet (PBUH) and Islam?

    Make a good impression. Hiding your head in the ground will not help.

    Ayaz Says:

    Thanks PTA….

    Please ban face book on very first instant and keep it doing unless facebook does not remove blasphemous material. Strict direction should be followed up !!

    Further, make sure no one get into login , by making sure that hidden servers are also be blocked !!

    Love you PTA
    Love to HAZRAT MUHAMMAD (PBUH).

    shehzad Says:

    What the fuck you want to say here drawing Mohammad PBUH is a fact shame on such a people. you might watch picture of our prophet(PBUH) but we cannot watch it being drawn . and for you kind information facebook gets money from the number of people who use this website. and if we all stop using it this will have a huge impact on facebook. and will suffer huge loss. if you cannot stop facebook doing so u can make them suffer loss

    I highly appreciate our Govt and PTA for this action. There’s no one more respectable for Us then our beloved HOlly Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.W). THis time we should deeply think about western Media/Govts and there moves againt Islam and Muslims.
    “Facebook should be completely banned in Pakistan forever”.

    Masha Allah
    Shukur alhumdulillah… A very nice Action taken by PTA.
    May Allah Almighty bless them.
    But onething more we should do is that.
    1- Practice on our releigon ourself (Amal e saleha)
    2- And acknowledge other about islam (Da’wah)

    JazakAllah u khaira

    Shahab Alam Khan Says:

    Dear Muslim Brothers and Sisters!!!

    Facebook should be banned forever in Pakistan & believe me our lives are not incomplete without it. In one of the above post by Mahmoor Tahir, he said banning facebook won’t make any difference to ‘FACEBOOK authorities’ but for sure it will hurt them big time because Pakistan is one of main business stream for them. Nobody can ignore this fact that Facebook is spoiling our youth and together we can make a lot of difference by no using it anymore.

    BEST WISHES!!

    The Undead Says:

    Banning Fb wont do any good. The only way to remove the event was to report it to FB. If a certain number of people report something in a short time, facebook blocks it. Its not facebook which is holding the event; these people are just few infidels.
    We should answer to these peoples’ queries about Islam and The Holy Prophet SAW. coz their governments have published a very bad image of Islam. if we can defeat these people in discussion, i would call that the True Holy Jihad.
    Banning FB will only result in decreased load on FB servers and thats probably good news for FB developers.

    Noone Says:

    Fatima, it is very sad reading your comments. So you think that 1.5 billion muslims all over the world are doing murders and suicide bombs ? They don’t even support it to the least. A handful of people disguising them as muslims and doing all the violence is just a game to keep the interest of ‘New World Order’ people alive all around the world. Pity you just copy whatever you listen on some TV without using your own mind to the least.

    So what about 2000 people burnt alive in indian Gujrat few years back and half a million children that died in Iraq because Iraq was not allowed to import food and medicine. You may regard this as a very wise act of United Nations. There are so many examples. I do not want to qoute all. I just want to tell you, this is not childishness and immaturity. This is deep Hatred of Islam and it exists right from the time of Rasoolullah (SAW). Even in Quran it is indicated that they will not be happy with you until you renounce your deen and accept theirs.

    The way you talk, it seems you are simply an Asshole.

    Muhammad Bilal Says:

    well , it is not facebook admin who has published this page . Its an extreme group who created that page . So, i dont think that there is’nt reason for blocking facebook.Facebook’s pages are uploaded to servers and no body knows what page has been created.This is how 1000’s of facebook pages are created all over the world.That is why report/abuse option is given at bottom of every page.If you report a picture , it will take some time to delete , and if you report whole group / page (according to facebook’s privicy) it will take approx 72 hrs means 2 to 3 days to del,because its not an easy task to del a page from all servers around the world.. You can create any page at any topic on facebook , and no facebook admin is going to see that.
    So just keep reporting facebook to ( abuse@facebook.com ) ..
    here’s the video from admin of that page i found on youtube .

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWMmd2wB2UU

    And here’s a respond from an American Person ..

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvPqNQOaJTA&feature=related

    So , This is an extreme group on facebook which should not be just deleted but also its members must be arrested..
    They are just trying to degrade ISLAM just like people here says About Non-Muslims ..

    Please Correct me if i said somthing wrong ..

    Muhammad Bilal Says:

    And there are many People Against Islam .. Just like our Religious People are against Non-Muslims.But there religious people are agreed in that Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) exsists because it is in Bible also . And they are also against this kind of things.

    Muhammad Rauf Uddin Says:

    Pakistan was the ONLY MUSLIM COUNTRY on facebook who was ANSWERING ALL ATHEIST, JEWS, CHRISTIAN …………

    I would Like to Give you TWO BEST lines by some Muslim Commentators.

    1- Thank You Draw Muhammad Group, You People United Muslims in Your own Page where we are giving you answers

    2- Facebook is violating its own rules and regulations because they say they do not promote racism, hatred, hatred speech, violence….. but they are promoting and degrading Muslims. Where are you facebook. Delete my account and say You are violating rules.

    • A Person shared a picture of Two groups yesterday. (1) DRAW MOHAMMAD GROUP (36000 users) (2) AGAINST “DRAW MOHAMMAD GROUP” (+37000)

    ===============
    █ IN MY OPINION █
    ===============
    Q: Why Did Government BANNED facebook?
    A: Not because of DRAW MUHAMMAD (S.A.W.W) DAY…….. there could be following reasons:

    a- Someone forced Pakistan to Stop their people to go against it. Pakistan in pressured by external forces to stop it (they can not arrest so many people at once – so govt. banned it)

    b- Hamari hukomat ka MAZAK bohat banta hey facebook per – Unhon ney Moqey sey faida utha ka aik EVENT ka naam laga kar BAN kar diya (Like they tried for SMS in mobiles)

    █ WHAT WILL HAPPEN AFTER BANNING FACEBOOK █

    Muslim groups (I saw around 50 MAJOR GROUPS from Pakistan) can not answer their Question and can not stand in front of Non-Muslims …. So AUTOMATICALLY “DRAM MUHAMMAD (S.A.W.W) PICS GROUP” will have MORE MEMBERS then OURS……. No one will stand in front of them, and MORE PEOPLE FROM WORLD WILL STAND AGAINST ISLAM….

    (ALLAH MALIK HEY HER CHEEZ KA – me ney sirf wohi likha jo MEREY ZEHAN ME AAYA – KYON K AIK CHALAK ADMI MOQEY SEY FAIDA UTHATA HEY – GOVERNMENT IS DOING SO)

    DO YOU THINK THEY CAAARE IF YOU BLOCK IT IN PAKISTAN OF ALL PLACES!?
    I FUCKING HATE THOSE PEOPLE THAT MADE THOSE DRAWINGS AND THOSE FAN PAGES.
    BUT YOU HAVE TO REALIZE THAT BY ‘BLOCKING’ THESE SITES. IT WON’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE. AT ALL.

    [edited]
    WE HAVE TO GROW.
    WE MUSLIMS HAVE TO REALIZE THAT WE’RE IN THE CYBER AGE.
    WE CAN’T CONTROL WHAT GOES OUT ON THE NET.
    IT’S NOT WITHIN OUR CONTROL!
    IF WE, MUSLIMS HAVE ANY HOPE AT ALL OF SURVIVING THE NEXT CENTURY
    THEN WE NEEEEEED TO REALIZE THAT THE INTERNET IS A HUGE ASSET.
    THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN RACISM
    AND THERE ALWAYS WILL BE.
    WHAT THESE PEOPLE DO…LIKE DRAW PICTURES OF OUR PROPHET IS BEYOND DISGUSTING. IT MAKES ME SICK.
    BUT IT MAKES ME SICKER HOW IMMATURELY THE MUSLIMS ARE ACTING TOWARDS THIS.
    PEOPLE LIKE SOME OF YOU.

    Rana Hammad Says:

    With great power, comes great responsibility!

    According to me, all social networking sites should apply some limits or make some policies so that no one should be able to write or share anything about anyone’s religion or anyone in history.

    If this is not controlled, then there will be chaos everywhere. We have so much limited life and we are still fighting over religious issues. No one should be able to make such comments or post anything which is a disgrace for others.

    I hope everyone understands and these social networking sites which have become giants in their respective domains should feel the responsibility.

    An outstanding step taken by the government of Pakistan. Facebook is banned by Pakistan Telecommunication Authority. Let’s hope Facebook realize and remove such events/groups from its site.

    i would haveto agree with Rana Hammad; every social networking site should form a code of conduct aginst making any religious groups or any religious discussion. Special religious network sites should be formed for that if they really want to.

    bissconni Says:

    All Muslims didn’t threaten “South Park,” a few Muslims did. Intentionally offending all Muslims by portraying the prophet Muhammad is
    gratuitously mean-spirited and disrespectful. The way to make the point that America insists on free expression is to embolden some of
    our more lily-livered institutions (the media, academia) to exhibit some fortitude and sense of principle when free expression is under
    attack. It is not to cause random, wide-spread discomfort to every Muslim in the world. The United States stands for diversity and respect
    for all religions. If a comic, or a satirist, or a critic chooses to do otherwise, that is legitimate, protected expression, even if it
    is offensive. Urging everyone to be offensive, however, violates ethical principles to support Constitutional ones.

    Burning a flag is protected expression, but we don’t insult millions of patriots and veterans by “Flag Burning Day” to show those who
    would make the act illegal that they are wrong. Excising the word “nigger” from Huckleberry Finn is impermissible censorship, but
    declaring a “Write the Word ‘Nigger’ Day” would be unimaginable. I have explained why trying to ban the word “retard” from the language
    is an offense to free thought and expression, but I would recoil from a “Use ‘Retard’ Day,” which would be pointlessly cruel.

    Al Qaeda with ALL Muslims!
    The internet debate has been reduced to hype and hysteria, rather than reasoned and thoughtful ideas. It is a place where those who speak
    the loudest (not the most introspect) and incite most ignorant get most of the air-time. (“Let’s draw Mohammed riding in a wheel-barrel!” for eg.)
    The ‘dumbing-down’ of America is a reality now. People (not philosopher-kings) see no reason to go very deeply by actually reading a book
    or two, or even understanding the history and overall picture of the situation before logging in on a blog and reducing the various debates
    into submission of short-sightedness and gossip.

    All this stuff sounds funny and a very biggest idiocy. sab bhair chaal ka shikar hain. to me it just sounds like billi ko dekh ker kabootar ankhain band ker lay aur samjhay billi chali gai. you can watch desi tottay on every 2nd website all that porn sheeit availabe everywhere. and no body take any step about it. even we all know about these local and indian sites. as for as the images issue is concern, all i want to ask what our Ambassadors are doing? in ko jhak marnay ko rakha hai kya. pakistan may facebook block kernay se what would happen? N O T H I N G. be positive buddies this is not the way like you are acting. We all love our Prophet and every religious values. open your facebook go to specific site and shoot the bastards with your feedback. give them bulk fires till they kneel down.

    The Undead Says:

    @ Mahjabeen Bukhari :-
    What are u trying to say actually is that “FB gets paid when we click on an ad” if I’m wrong correct me
    Fb doesnt get paid by the number of clicks. Its a global advertisement rule that the websites with heavy traffic get paid before the ad gets on the website. While the websites with very less traffic has to wait before someone clicks on ads on their websites to get paid. understood?

    Fb will only not get ads from Pakistani companies and this loss will be compensated by the lesser traffic on FB servers.

    Why ban FB? Fb is not associated in any way with that page/event. I have seen ppl that dont know how to report a page/event and they just join “we are against that day” kinda groups. Thats not the way to get that page closed.

    @ Fatima :-
    I disagree with u. We have to present a better image of Islam. We have to answer to the misunderstandings those people have about Islam.
    I have seen Pakistanis that abused non-Muslims when the ask something about Islam. We have to change our attitude. There were Pakistanis on FB that were running very good Islamic groups and they were answering to the queries of the non Muslims.

    Ali Usman Says:

    The need is to understand the big picture, which mostly of us are unaware of. We all must understand that its all a part of jewish conspiracy or free masons building a new world order by eliminating muslims, otherwise why would Facebook’s management would do something that is against their policy and terms and would create a mess for themselves.
    We have been attracted so much to this futile thing and become so dependent to this useless social interaction site (i.e facebook),that we have no idea were is this all going, whose getting all the funds and profits genereated by facebook, who is using it for what or against who, the question remains. its like they have entranced upon us.
    They have hurt our sentiments and they have certainly hurt our religion Islam. i am frankly not a fundamentalist, but this is something we all cant tolerate at all, at any cost. i think i did my part and that is by deleting my account on facebook, i can surely live without it as i was living before without it. sometimes in life you have to set your priorities by defining limitatons and i guess this was the time when i decided to do one.
    Even if the PTA removes the ban on this facebook site, which they shoudnt, even then i am not going to deactivate my account. this is the right time to understand what these people are doing to us, why they hurt us and why they degrade us….and always remember one thing if we try “togather we can make a difference”.

    Peace!

    facebook banned is it the correct way??? i dont think so……..
    sweet i only know one thing Qur’an sys “They never be your friends.”
    on other place “kill them and chop them if they do not obey to ALLAH, untill they bowd down and start obying ALLAH”
    Last half decad wat they r doing in a series and v just did protests but it was our politnes. that v just recording our dislikness. so tell me miss fatima wat happend after each protest????
    u r asking muslims to become modrate on a matter that is more important than our lives.
    if v call name of ur mother and father or ur sister or even u then for how long u will show ur politness. for how long u will remain cool.
    v r polite persons and cool ones. they r the barbarians, brutels.
    May ALLAH protect u from those things. they rape our women in pelestine, iraq, bosnia, afghanistan. even girls of age 11 untill they died and infront of the eyes of her tied parents. tell me the modration if they do this to you’r daughter in front of ur eyes. they put unclothed dead bodies of our sisters in lakes and rivers.
    and still u r telling us to be modrate.
    tell me the last stage of modraion. they r killing our people down to there last child and u r sying that v dont do anything against them. it amazes me that in all over the world they are killing muslims, and still they are modrate ppl and v r brutels????
    u know ppl like u…………
    May ALLAH Bless me, you, and all of us with right path…..
    Aameen

    last thing most important thing is that v shud call for jihad in all over the world. they r never going to stop to do such things. just sword can stop them

    What I say is WHY Pakistan is first to ban facebook Where is Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Eqypt and all Muslim country should ban facebook.

Why they dont ban all foreign products.

    A great decision by LHC and PTA banning face-book.those who are saying that banning wont help need to think a little.well we Muslims are about 47% of face-book users and we have been asking face-book to stop this event but face-book was just ignoring us. If we unite and leave face-book all at once face-book looses 47% of its users. with this i think next time something like this event happens face-book will listen to us and will give importance to our beliefs.

    Great action ever taken by Govt. and i am glad to hear that Pakistan was the first country to ban fb and its great to do so because its our duty to protect Prophet Mohammed (SAW) respect with die hard effort and as a muslim no one can tolerate that someone do against our beloved Prophet … Great unity shown by Muslims, it is really good feelings to see all Muslims united again !! It is also a sort of warning to all of websites and links and whatever that if you again try to commit this crime then you might be facing a real challenge to your life also !!

    The Undead Says:

    @ mahjabeen
    Facebook will only face lose if a permanent ban on fb is issued. The 2 bn thing are just rumours.
    an regarding the thing u heard, that is only for websites with very low traffic. on such websites, the owners get paid when someone clicks on the ad.

    but on fb, companies pay before the ad is shown. If a permanent ban is issued, then paki companies will stop giving ads on fb and fb will face loss.

    I think that either a perma ban should be issued or the current ban be taken back.

    let me tell you something all of you out there, yes its not right to disgraced anther religion and prophet, yet I have simple QUESTION to all who have send these comments.ARE YOU THE ONLY MUSLIM PEOPLE????????living in this universe????????look around there is whole Muslim world countries,why there resident Muslim do not do this, think as you do?by doing this who are killing and saving?????????yourselves only people in Pakistan all your own brother n sister is this the teaching of ISLAM to kill your own family???????????????????? I think Pakistan’ name is already been linked in all the major attacks around the Globe?by doing this I don’t see you r doing any good things for your mother land (PAKISTAN) dragging it in street around the world. It wasn’t the idea of IQBAL and Jinnah.

    Tabreize Khan Says:

    1. When it came to the one-ness and respect of Allah, (whose respect was obligatory on Mohammad PBUH), he made no compromise!! To be heard by ALL, he used to climb a nearby peak and preach to ALL against polytheism (Shirk); and used to get almost beaten to death for it! Similarly, isnt the respect of Mohammad PBUH obligatory on us?? And guys, compared to him, what r we doing? NOTHING!! What is one little temporary ban of one website of one internet when weighed against the respect of a man to whom we owe SO MUCH?!! All our actions are being watched by Allah, and you never know, favouring the ban willingly (or at least not complaining about it) might count for a lot in His eyes! At least I ‘d love to be so fortunate!
    2. What have been put forward are mere theories i’m afraid! With the ban, at least they know that unacceptable things wont be accepted. BTW we’d all love to hear from you some CONCRETE steps (1,2,3..) that you would have taken to tackle the issue!
    3. The starter of the page (some Miss Sally from Seatle, USA), has already announced her disassociation from the event!! She probably realized that the idea of deliberately hurting a Billion+ Muslims (just because protests from some Muslims in USA had resulted in stopping a blasphemous episode of Comedy Central’s Southpark from being aired) is sheer nonsense!!
    4. Do you think Facebook owner is so naive? Look at what he says now.. that Facebook would disallow the objectionable URL in Pakistan but IT WILL NOT BE REMOVED FROM FACEBOOK!! So, it is the conscious decision of Facebook CEO: he would NOT take the page off, no matter how much and how many are hurt by it! FINE then, we understand your mental level Mr CEO, being such an accomplished person and having plenty of brains. BTW what do u expect from a common man you hurt so much!? Even the ban crosses your line?

    P.S. We r Muslims! We respect Jesus, and Moses, and Raam, and Buddha. Someone counts that as our weakness? be it!!

And what is our reaction???? Just banned that typical URL, that website for sometime or forever .only? Is the remedy? Cant we talk with them on equal level, cant we inquire about that . we are scared people, thats why jews and all other rule on Muslims….. Why cant our government talk to the authorities, WHY? what happened with ban? People already dont sign up Face book, so what we do on govt level, being a Muslim why dont our govt has courage to talk with the FB authorities …. Banned is nothing.. Why cant we stop them? Why we Muslims are scared of… Because we all forget ISLAM. its all just a propaganda Demo, we from inside are weak, we from inside just think about ourselves only , what is Islam, what is his value, what is the meaning of life , we all forget……. On one side we ban the FB and on the other side we read, we listen we dance, we drink , we do all that which is prohibited in Islam. but for a propaganda we come out and show our double personalities…. baN IS NOTHING, WE NEED CHANGE IN OURSELVES ONLY, WHEN WE WILL BE MUSLIMS, TRUE MUSLIMS, BELIEVE ME NO ONE CAN NAME OUR PROPHET IN BAD WAYS, NO ONE CAN ABUSE OUR RELIGION. JUST TO MAKE YOURSELF A MUSLIM ONLY….

    Facebook are the live example and Pandora’s box of all evils retaliated by so-called literates and moderate people, who are sick, pessimist and are narrow-minded from inside. They are basically worshippers of Evil, they even didnt follow their religion, as no religion allow to humiliate the Prophet, the finest human beings of the earth.

    By making sketches of the whole universe pious and respectful man, making a film on him, distorting his image.

    What the damn its been called ‘freedom of expression’? like hurting anyone’s faith and targeting his belief is freedom, it all non-sense and ill-mindedness.

    Have any Muslim in the world having 1.2 billion in population ever burnt bible or any other holy book? never, beacause we cannot become a true Muslim if we have faith on the other prophets who brought holy books, hebrew Bible, Tawrat (Torah), Injil (Gospel), Zaboor (even sum of these books, like New testament are not in its original form today), we also firm belief on Jesus and Moses.

    Than how can we branded as fundamentalist or extrement or worst terrorist than?

    we have millions of ppl with names of Eisa, Moses (Mosa A.S), but nobody have ever heard that any christian or jewish taking name Muhammad?
