Again, a few thousands out of the 160+ million Indian Muslim population is nothing special.
Let me quote you from Post #376:
Anti-corruption leader Anna Hazare’s movement may be overwhelming, but Muslims were few and far between in this uprising. “During his fast in April, Anna...
When will the Maoists, the LeT, the about 100+ separatist movements in the North East & elsewhere join in the Anna Hazare rally against the government?
No one is terming anyone un-Islamic. The Imam is only giving out religious knowledge on what Islam permits & doesn't permit. And considering that most Muslims in India are not in Anna Hazare's movement, his influence in much greater than what you think.
I really don't. I don't care what happens at the end of all this. I didn't care what happened in Gujarat or anywhere else in India. Which is why I don't join Indian forums talking about India. Since this is on a Pakistani forum, I can talk about whatever issue I want.
You, unlike the every...

Why I didn’t join Anna Hazare:
A few weeks ago, I received a call from Mayank Gandhi, Mumbai coordinator of ‘India Against Corruption’, invting me to be part of a panel in Mumbai to address a press conference on the then upcoming...
No, I don't give a crap about what happens in India. I'm just trying to show you that the picture in India isn't as rosy as you think, his word holds much more credibility than yours.
It is dead for the 836 million Indians living below the poverty line, that make less than 20 rupees a day, or the 600 million Indians that don't have access to toilets or clean water.
Some other wise words by Bokhari:
Bukhari further said communalism should be a priority because it is a bigger threat to the nation and not corruption.
"There is no mention of communalism, which is a bigger threat. Communalism should be a priority and corruption comes second in this list," he...
Actually, the leading Imam of the largest mosque in India, that too in the capital of India with countless Indian Muslim followers is certainly more credible than you are.
Imam Bokhari's words:
"You cannot pray a nation in Islam. If few Muslims are participating in Hazare demonstration this does not represent the 25 crore Muslims in this country."
When a leading Imam of one of the biggest Masjids, in the capital of India is saying this, who is being followed by countless Indian Muslims, one knows what you're saying is completely false.
Even though I'm not very religious, I believe in God. In my opinion, God isn't meant only for the believers, but all the creatures in the world. Science is not necessarily independent of God either.
Any slogan is fine, whether it is 'Allah o Akbar' or 'Vande Mataram'/'Jai Hind', as long as it in not enforced upon others. Which is why even though flag burning is despicable, it is allowed here in the US.
It's not about mom vs the religion. If you aren't an atheist & believe a God exists, then you'll believe that a God created your mom, & God created you. Your mother is not immortal, she'll pass away at some point in her life. In that moment, the only way you can pray for her is through God...
