Holi color forcefully put on Muslim woman in Dhaka

Holi is a cultural festival not a religious one. Hindus don't worship, nor they go to temple in Holi. Infact holi is one of the festival where I can have Non veg on that day.

It is like celebrating New Year/ Valentine day (Nothing related to religion)
Thanks for your valuable information.. Holi is popular in Hindus.. and no one can force any other person to celebrate any function without his/her permission.. If that happens than that is a serious offence..
 
This is the effect of lack of accountability and law & order plus a lack of religious awareness among BD muslim youth. A muslim simply can NOT take part in non-muslim festivities. To each his own but secularists in muslim lands seem to forget that when they try to impose non-muslim customs on Muslims. And festivals like holi that also leads to harassment of women should NOT be allowed in public space but should be restricted to private premises and this won't infringe on freedom of religion. Even a hindtuvadi government in India is taking precautionary steps to prevent sexual harassment of females during holi:

The loons who attacked the muslim sister seem to be awami thugs or irreligious loons low on morals. Lets see what the police do in this case. Hope these thugs will be tried under the due process of law.


Holi is a not a religious festival but cultural one. If some one does not want to participate in the activity they should be left alone.

Regardless of whether its religious or cultural, a Muslim can NOT partake in non-muslim festivities. And culture is not a good enough justification in islam, any practices, cultural or not, that have unislamic elements, is prohibited for a Muslim. And holi has explicit pagan origins and is a pagan festival.

With all due respect, I have absolutely 0 problem with you or any non-muslim celebrating their festivals in BD and Islam grants that freedom to non-muslims. But the state, media and public space should not promote such festivals in a Muslim country. Sadly, BD is a secular country, but even then at the very least it is expected of the government that Muslim women are protected in public spaces from the inevitable consequences of such festivals.

Is she breathing, she didn't melt did she "holier than thou" retards everything is offensive, week minds and weak faith corrupt to the core will do anything for a buck, yet at the end of the day every little thing threatens their faith

It seems you are taking a gibe at the Muslim women who is a victim here and OP. SO based on that assumption I have to say the following. If my assumption is wrong then the following is NOT for you:

You seem to have a deep hatred for everything Islam & muslim. If i am not wrong you are an liberal secularist and an assad apologist, right? Why do you want to force a pagan festival on Muslims? More importantly did it occur to you that the Muslim women in question was a victim of harassment in this case?

Btw if you do NOT know, let me tell you - yes Islam does encourage environment & guidelines where a Muslim's faith is safeguarded and NOT attacked. Its NOT weak faith but fairness & justice to some muslims having weak faith. Otherwise many such muslims with below par intellectual capacity may lose their faith under the overwhelming influence of kufr and become RoadRunners running after their ever elusive liberal anti-islamic Utopia.

With all due respect, you have your religion and I have mine. Islam grants non-muslims the right to celebrate and practice their religion within their respective communities. But as a Muslim I have a problem with celebration like holi occurring in public space. Remember BD is a secular country and at the very least Muslims being majority here can expect government to ensure protection from such harassment in public space.

And yes New year & valentines is also NOT permissible for a Muslim as per Islam.

So you dont like to see your minorities getting promoted.And can you tell me how many high level govt posts are there in BD in total..

Would NOT have been a problem if those positions and promotions were given on merit and NOT to appease India in the expense of BD muslim's national interest.

Well I agree with u to some extent but generally it doesn't happen on pdf
 
three muslims arrested. muslim only in name.

you just cant force people to celebrate something they dont want to. holi is a celebration of hindu gods. so the muslim women didn't want to participate otherwise it would be shirk. but these scumbags had tenacity to harass them and touch them. forced them to celebrate.

sylhet e aasuk esob korthe thang khora koira dimu
 
You know at these festivals people get excited and do silly things. I wouldn't go by the stills and the fact that it was enforceable put on a Muslim woman. That's just incitement.
You all know I am not a supporter of Hindus or India but I think as fellow humans we have to be fair and see incitement when it's being committed.
Also one has to ask what was a Muslim woman is doing in the middle of a Hindu holi festival

You seem to be very angry at Islamic countries? In fact, I do not disagree with you. Muslim states failed its people. I'm not sure if the problems lay with leaders or people. It's seems we got stuck between Islam and something else.

being at a non muslim country... i realise these people live their lives the way islam meant it to be lived.
religion never created unity, you might think i am an atheist, i am not. just stating the facts... personal beliefs should never be the basis of unity it just doesn't work
