Salam Alaykum,

We did not get a chance to discuss this properly, but now since it has come up I need to know:

1. According to Fiqh, what is the relationship there has to be between a blasphemer, and the acceptability of killing him, as far as the fact that the country where the blasphemer lives and can be killed in should be ruled according to Islam?

This is an important question, because nowadays we see thousands, nay millions, of non-Muslims living in non-Muslim lands purposefully insulting the Prophet (SAW) [you may remember the facebook cartoon incident, which was simply a way to make Muslims angry and incite us to attack them].

So is there any Fatwa saying that the Muslims living in non-Muslim lands (or those lands not governed by Shariah) have the right of killing the blasphemers, even if there are thousands or millions of them living in non-Muslim lands?

As a related question, was there ever any 'fatwa of death' put on the head of certain Christian authors, such as Dante, who openly insulted the Prophet (SAW) in his writings while living far away from Muslim lands?
