2) Does Graffiti get considered as imitating unbelievers? Is Graffiti considered a culture of the unbelievers? I don't know, you tell me!

Well I'm not sure as to the second question. Like when I went to Pakistan, they had Allah etc written on walls (obviously not like the style show, but still it was on the walls) and also I've seen many times written "Namaz parho is se pehle ke tumhari namaz parhi jaye" (Perform salah before salah is performed upon you (ie janaza salah). So having Islamic messages written on walls is not really a new thing. In South Africa, the whole wall of the IPCI (Ahmed Deedat's building) has written upon it "Read Al-Quran, The Last Testament of God" smack in the middle of Durban's downtown. How far will we go though? Will we consider billboards as imitating unbelievers?

Anyways, I have sent the question of the usage of graffiti for dawah and its hillat to askimam.org.

I'll get an answer soon I hope.
