Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. The Government have said that they are not going to introduce blasphemy laws: https://hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2024-12-18/debates/ba455fa1-fb15-4e1b-b4c9-884dfdaeb83e/CommonsChamber#contribution-83E4227E-B766-4980-9AFC-A77C90D20A59 It is therefore unclear what further action you would like the Government or Parliament to take.

Background
No other group is protected from criticism or even mockery of its beliefs – Muslims should not receive special treatment that amounts to an Islamic blasphemy law.
