Do not speak to a dullard,
For he will disdain your sensible words.

Is it wiser to remain silent before those who will not listen, or is there a moral duty to speak truth even when it will be scorned?

It is my moral duty to tell Catholics how evil their Imperial Church truly is. It has always been identified as the whore of Babylon for a good reason.

We have the moral duty to speak the truth even when it is scorned, it is the Sunnah (tradition) of the prophets.

Notice that your illustration is from the Divine Comedy by Dante, a fiction which recycles a story from early Islamic philosophy yet also condemns to Hell the Prophet Muhammad, salallahu alayhi wa salam.

My religion has been scorned since the day it was revealed, and this fictional story which scorns it is the pinned post on this board as well. The prophets were scorned, ostracized, mocked, hated, many brutally killed in very painful ways.

Yet I don't look down on my peers as "dullards" and I have a moral duty to propagate Islam as it is the Truth of God. A mean internet comment is really nothing, I get death threats for preaching Islam, yet my faith is complete and so the fulfillment of these threats would only be martyrdom.

What? I'm not sure if that question makes sense.

And there's a picture of it, too! Here, look at the picture! Here, we can see mohammed struggling to keep his innards inside, while Dante observes him with rightful disdain! Discussion of the illustrations created by Gustave Dore (and his assistants) is on-topic literary discussion, as his renderings are arguably the most famous visuals of the poem. Even the /lit/ sticky itself takes as its image one of the final images in the set, depicting the center of heaven. Which, of course, is a very long way off from the location occupied by mohammed, as you can see in the picture!

No they weren't Allah never lets his prophets be dishonored
Stories of such are Jewish slanders

It depends on how grave the consequences are if they aren't warned I suppose.

No worse dullard than one who doesn't want to understand. Knowing how to remain silent is just as important as knowing how to talk.

the kingdom of God is within & also actions speak louder than words; so the answer is easy, Silence is Gold

the truth also doesn't really have a name or words that you can attach it to... you might think you're "speaking" the "truth" but as soon as you're done talking the "truth" will have also changed itself to not adhere to the logic of your "speaking" you just did... TRUTH is fleeting & ever-changing & largely unspeakable... so words in general are totally meaningless except to dullards... dullards approach the external world as if it is true, whatever you think the opposite of a dullard is approaches the external world as if it is eternally false

all of you are dullards. I am the sole genius

Silence is a form of speaking the truth. Want to be always honest? Never speak.
