"Inayat Bunglawala, assistant secretary-general of the Muslim Council of Britain, described the assistant’s comments as “offensive” and called for Marks & Spencer to carry out a thorough investigation."

Guessing this sentence will be overlooked....

This case is similar to the one in Malaysia recently where Christians' use of Allah for God was set to be banned because some Muslims there believed Christians and Muslims don't have the same god (which, incidentally, they don't, but Muslims aren't supposed to believe that). Muslims are supposed to view Christianity sort of how Christians view Judaism: a valid religion where the adherents worship God, but before some new revelation. Apparently, some Muslims have jumped on the extremist bandwagon without having an in-depth knowledge of their own religion (guess they're somewhat comparable to some racist groups in the United States, passing themselves off as devout Christians yet obviously having immense gaps in their Biblical knowledge).

Enough blathering. Basically, these Muslims seem to take out of their religion what they want, and in this instance they're taking the loads of bad stuff in Islam.
