What was the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy?
The Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy began after twelve editorial cartoons, most of which depicted the Islamic prophet Muhammad, were published in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten on 30 September 2005.
Why was Jyllands-Posten banned in Denmark?

Danish Muslim organizations, who objected to the depictions, responded by holding public protests attempting to raise awareness of Jyllands-Posten’s publication.
What happened to the cartoonists involved in the Muhammad cartoons?
Western embassies in various countries were damaged in the demonstrations, along with Christian churches in some places.

On February 26, the cartoonist who had drawn the “bomb in turban” picture, the most controversial of the twelve, explained: There are interpretations of it [the drawing] that are incorrect. The general impression among Muslims is that it is about Islam as a whole.
