(2) This Order prohibits creating or reproducing an image or likeness of the Prophet Muhammad.
(3) This order prohibits intentionally descrating or defiling the following:
(a) religious items or symbols (regardless of the religion);
(b) religious holy books, such as the Qur’an, Bible, or Torah…(4) This Order prohibits proselytizing of any religion, faith, or practice to local nationals or third country nationals in countries in the USCENTCOM AOR. This rule does not prohibit Chaplains from performing their official religious duties.
