Head of Indian govt’s minorities body says Naik’s fears of unfair trial well grounded

Posted on:

The head of the Indian government agency responsible for protecting religious minorities agreed that Dr. Zakir Naik's speech could offend Hindus and question his methods, but added that missionaries have legitimate reasons to worry about Narendra Persecution and unfair trials under Modi's government.

Zafarul-Islam Khan is a well-known activist. He is the chairman of the Delhi Minority Council supported by the federal government. The Delhi Commission is a body that defends the rights of Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Buddhists and Parsis. The recent money-laundering allegations are believed to be part of a larger campaign launched by extremists, and the Indian army has silenced Naik.

Khan is the son of one of the most prominent Muslim voices in contemporary India. Khan said: "Since Modi came to power in May 2014, the Sindhut forces have unlimited power. They are abusing them, whether real or fictional."

Khan's father is Wahiduddin Khan, who advocated Gandhi non-violence and was awarded Padma Bhushan, India's third highest civilian honor.

Wahiduddin has criticized Naik's Islamic missionary methods in the past, and Khan insists.

But he said that although Naik's approach was combative, he would not accuse him of abusing other beliefs, especially Hinduism.

"I think Zakir Naik can sometimes be outspoken and aggressive, but he doesn't abuse other religions," Khan said.

"I think he should be more cautious. He once held large live TV conferences in parks and gymnasiums, and Hindu leaders were invited and" insulted "by them. After his speech, the Hindus stood up and declared that they are Islam, This made him more offended. It made the Hindus unhappy. "He added.

Malaysian police are investigating allegations of sedition by Zakir Naik.

After criticizing speeches from non-Muslim communities, Naik was investigated in Malaysia. He has reportedly described Chinese as a "guest" in response to growing calls for his deportation.

However, he denied angering racial sentiment, saying he was the victim of a libel campaign by Modi supporters.

He has previously stated that he will not return to India and believes that he will not be subject to a fair trial under the leadership of the BJP government.

Khan said Naik may be naive about India's commitment to freedom of speech and "really realize the constitutionally guaranteed right to freedom of speech and the right to recognize and spread any belief."

"In fact, these rights are more on paper than they really are. Any change from Hinduism to another religion is considered a threat to Hindus and the country as a whole," he added.

He said that when it comes to allegations that threaten community harmony, what he calls the double standards of current leaders complicate matters.

"Furthermore, there are countless Hindu militiamen who have the law in their hands, and state agencies have taken a different path to implement these Hindutva goals, which are claimed by RSS and supported by their political faction, BJP, which is currently ruling India." Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, a right-wing organization associated with the ruling party, has been considered the culprit of community riots for decades.

Khan said he does not consider Naik to be a part of Indian Muslim scholars.

"Because of his television debates and the emergence of the Peace TV show, he is influential and has a huge following, but he is not a scholar," he added, and Necke appears to have followed the late South African mission Ahmad Deedat, who argued with Christian theologians in the early 1980s.

Although Khan has reservations about Naik's method of spreading Islam, Khan believes that Naik will not get justice in "cases of witch hunting and official insults."

"This is true. In the eyes of the current government, the Indian judiciary has been quite compromised, and the government believes to reverse its decision." He added that Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad's background in Naik The following criticism of the Indian judiciary makes sense.

"I think Malaysia has done the right thing. Under the current Indian system, Naik will not get justice."
