Muslim leaders lined up to condemn Charle Hebdo for its decision to put a cartoon of the prophet on the cover and warned that it risked fuelling sectarian tensions. The press in most Muslim countries did not publish the cover cartoon and a Turkish court banned the cartoon from being released on Turkish websites. But the arch-secularist Turkish newspaper Cumhuriyet published a four-page segment containing the controversial Luz caricature as well as other articles and caricatures from the special issue. The cover of the French magazine shows a weeping prophet holding up a sign saying “Je suis Charlie” (“I am Charlie”), the slogan of global solidarity with the magazine’s journalists who were killed in their offices last Wednesday. The headline reads “All is forgiven”.
