Well! India is a secular country. I don't understand as to why such an uproar against a Muslim religious scholar who is not involved in Politics and is a man dedicated to religions only, in my opinion.
I agree totally, but in this case the reason was that multiple terrorists have claimed that they were inspired by his lectures. Actually, the most significant case of these was a terrorist in Bangladesh (a Muslim country) who claimed that his inspiration was Zakir Hussein.
Peacefully ?.
One should know that I don't believe in Naik, never. But Veda, if not all, at least some of it is a revealed scripture. If Muhammad is mentioned in Veda, Bible, Zoroastrians scriptures etc, it does no harm any such religion or peoples belonging to them, in any way. It rather supports them to be true in the origin, if not now, due to a lot of water going down the Ganges. A true Muslim has to respect and love all the revealed religions.
What is wrong with that? Please
You can read anything into the Vedas if you don't truly understand it in a deep spiritual way, or the way it was made to reveal, its like reading something into the Quran, how would you feel if others ready someone of their own beliefs into you wonderful book ?.
Yes I hope so, but don't say things that are not totally true.
That is another thing. It should be dealt with as per the Law of the Land. As simple as that.
Did I ever object to anybody reading Quran? It never happened. If one reads Quran and makes an opinion which is wrong, I will defend the correct meanings with arguments. If he makes a right opinion, I will be happy to accept it. Please
My god I don't know where to start.
That would be decided with arguments and dialogue. Right? Please
No. Not right. Zakir Naik is an absconder hiding from Indian authorities in Saudi Arabia after channeling crores of rupees to his sister's account from the money he received to encourage terrorism in Muslim youth from India and Bangladesh. Do not degrade scholarship to his level. He is a con-man who used religion for personal benefit.
There is no argument with me.
Thanks for agreeing totally. Please
I said that such matters, related to crime, are different, not supported by any religion. If Zakir has done any crime, he should be made answerable to the Law of the Land. There are no two opinion on it. Right? Please
Patronizing ?.
You really blew it this time by referring to a guy whose speeches and sermons have become inspirations for terror attacks, who thinks 9/11 is an American conspiracy, who is sympathetic to Osama Bin Laden, who believes anybody who converts from Islam or preaches another religion in an Islamic country should be given the death sentence, approves child marriage, approves polygamy, and believes only science that is apporved by Islamic scholars should be taught and only schools that should exist are Islamic schools. He and his tv sermons are banned in UK and Canada (Canada!) for their divisiveness and intolerance and his organization is under investigation in Bangladesh and India for motivating terror attacks.
Yup.
