If the news is true then it's all good. indians say FAR FAR worst things daily. Also, there are millions of indian hindus living and working in Muslim Gulf nations. Just shows the incomparable superiority of Islamic culture over indian/hindu culture.

 

[Imad.Khan]

I agree, that was not called for and its good that he apologised.

 

[Goenitz]

the rise of right wing and news coming from it has made neighbours also extremist. First in bengal and now Pakistan.
Pak vs India is not Islam vs Hinduism. But the political viewership made people turn every event like that.

 

[PAKISTANFOREVER]

I agree, that was not called for and its good that he apologised.

So what? indians say FAR FAR worst things on a daily basis and get away with it. Also Islamic culture and civilisation is phenomenally more superior to indian/hindu culture and civilisation. Just look at the millions of indian hindus living and working in Muslim Gulf natio a despite hating Islam with a passion. Salah is an important part of Islam. If you don't like then you can leave Islam.

should have never appologized!

I resent it coming from the mouth of a hindutva, a sanghi, a fanatical nation that abuses Muslims and Pakistan at every opportunity. Look in the mirror first, and then accuse others.

EXACTLY

indians say FAR FAR worst things daily. They even publicly call for the killing of indian minorities yet no one says a thing. Waqar Younis was correct. Also, Islamic culture and civilisation is phenomenally more superior to indian/hindu culture. Just look at the millions of indian hindus pouring in to the Muslim gulf nations for work despite hating Isalm with an extreme passion.

 

[Wood]

Silly fellow. This is not a religious war. It was just a cricket match

 

[AgnosticIndian]

Just look at the millions of indian hindus living and working in Muslim Gulf natio a despite hating Islam with a passion.

I understand your point but Islamic culture probably didn't cause oil to appear under their feets.....

We are not Indians, we have higher standards than that, and please control your temper.

 

[PAKISTANFOREVER]

I understand your point but Islamic culture probably didn't cause oil to appear under their feets.....

But neither did it facilitate over 4 millions dying from covid-19, over 732 million indians defecating in the open or india being the biggest open sewer/sh*thole that planet earth has EVER SEEN:

Covid-19: India excess deaths cross four million, says study

Excess deaths - those above expected levels - are a measure of the overall impact of the pandemic.

At 732 Million, India Tops List on Number of People Without Access to Toilets: Report

In addition to the increased risk of disease, the lack of sanitation facilities also makes women and girls susceptible to harassment and illiteracy.

We are not Indians, we have higher standards than that, and please control your temper.

As far as indians are concerned, the time for civility has long gone. You are talking as if it is still 2011. indians need to be treated like the hyper-ugly, physically deformed/repulsive sub-human creatures they are.

But prayers of Hazart Ibrahim AS did

 

[GOAT]

It was inappropriate to politicize the act of prayer which is between Khuda and Khalk. Rizwan’s namaz was not intended to be an act of defiance or a statement against anyone, hence it should not be misconstrued as anything other than an act of worship. Also, please refrain from using such objectionable language - if you need inspiration to stop, consider that it’s against the principles of Islam and of common decency.

 

[IceCold]

What is all the fuss about? Didn't understand?
