       Salmon Rushdie, world famous author of multiple literary prizes, was left severely injured after being stabbed on stage at an event in New York state. He has faced years of death threats for his 1988 novel The Satanic Verses. As news emerged of Friday’s attack, eyes turned to Tehran where the fatwa, religious edict, calling for the writer’s assassination was first issued more than three decades ago. Meanwhile, JK Rowling, the author of Harry Potter series, was threatened on her social media where she posted her reaction on social media to the attack on Rushdie. Rowling tweeted, “Horrifying news. Feeling very sick right now. Let him be OK.” A Twitter replied, “Don’t worry you are next.” The same twitter account also posted messages praising the assault to Rushdie. Two days after the attack, Rushdie is now on the road to recovery and the threat to Rowling is under police investigation.
