Production of the shoes with the printed names of Allah and holly Prophet on them angers the Muslims.

According to Ahlul Bayt (A) News Agency – ABNA.ir – Keds, a brand of canvas shoe with rubber soles, has produced new sneaker which printed the holly sentences of “لا اله الا الله” there is no God except Allah and “محمد رسول الله” the Holly prophet is the messenger of Allah on them!

This is an obvious insult to the sacred of more than one billion Muslims, angers several people.

Following to these shoes production, Muslim Internet users mail each other and want to boycott the production of Keds.

I didn't see them on Keds site, but I did see this:
You can design your own shoe and sell it online

Here are some on zazzle someone designed:

5. Technically though, they wold be correct
It was an American company and it did/could produce them since users can custom make shoes at their site.

It is kind of like like saying "American company Zazzle produces t-shirts with Allah on them" :)

2. This insulting Allah and insulting God thing is ridicules.
No one, no a single individual can ask God or Allah if they are insulted by anything and get an answer.

A God that has created everything should be insulted by anyone using their created life to end another life as in killing and murder.

3. Yup, zazzle will let you put almost anything on a shoe...


Keds hasn't produced the pedobear shoe, and Keds hasn't produced the Allah shoe.
