What is the ruling on downloading and publishing a video that contains blasphemous words, such as insulting the Divine Being, if the purpose of publishing is not disbelief itself, but another purpose present in the video? And what is the ruling on those who publish films that include supplication to other than Allah, or mockery of Him, or other blasphemous matters?
