Work begins on first Hindu temple in Islamabad

[tkmd]

If GoP announced they are building a new masjid I would be against it. We have massive debt, our industries are failing, the average person is going backwards. And GoP is building a temple. If this government can’t face the challenges and deal with them, they should go home. Not build temples.

GREAT GREAT COUNCIL OF ISLAMIC IDEOLOGY - I DONT KNOW WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE ARE RUNNING THIS COUNCIL. ITs ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF PAKISTAN not SECULAR PK.
MUNAFIQ Toe THY hum now wait for destruction.
Council of Islamic Ideology says construction of new Hindu temple in Islamabad can resume, that Islamic law allows it.

Pakistan’s state-run council of clerics, which advises the government on religious issues, has given its approval for the construction of a new temple for minority Hindus, ruling that Islamic law allows minorities a place of worship.

Lal Malhi, a prominent Hindu leader who is also a member of parliament, applauded Wednesday’s ruling but noted the council also recommended the government not spend public funds directly on the construction of private places of worship.

Maybe its the backwards thinking that's finally changing.

Aaahhh. Nothings like a good gimmick! Sad to see regressive policies implemented in Pakistan too.

Why not spend the money on feeding the poor?

Are there Hindus in Islamabad? There must be something in the Indian/Nepalese or West Indies High Commissions...


There are no Hindus in Islamabad. Those who are can visit the Indian/Nepalese/Guyana High Commissions on special occasions. This will only promote erosion of your value systems.

We should put some Islamic artefacts in the foundation to justify knocking it down later.

This is anti human and anti islam. Private places of worship of nonmuslims were instructed to be protected.

Do you want to go to such a low level.

Perasonally i am against using public fund for non muslim temples (i am not sure if it is being constructed by hindus or government) but in any case conspiring knowingly for destruction of worship place is very low

No need for this PR stunt. It would be a shame if the government of an ISLAMIC country that was built in the name of ISLAM (yeah, I know the main goal in the early 20th century was to built a brown England for Arabic or Persian named people, we all read that story!) builts a place for IDOL-WORSHIP with public funds. Nobody will aprreciate this PR stunt, Indians will demand temples everywhere, libtard-liberal want the Faisal mosque to become a Hindu temple and random hobos around the world will demand "bUt ThErE wAs No HiNdU pM iN PaKiStAN!!!!!".

If Hindus need a temple a so much, please built this with your own money. The same liberals crying when a mosque is constructed are happy with the consutructing of a temple. Your hyprocrisy is beyond me.

Nice. Hopefully the first of many temples to come.
Last year i was in Indonesia and small hindu temples were dotted all over the city. You just had to step out of your dwellings and a small temple for morning prayers was right their.
I am not a believer but for the practicing hindus , it felt like home.
You woke up to the early morning chanting of hindu shloks , etc .

Google the baha'i temple in Delhi. Its one of India's iconic religious buildings. Its in a very prominent place and is a very popular tourist site.
Population of bahai in India is hardly 2 m.
While population of Hindus in Pakistan is 3 m.
Instead of a small temple, the Pakistani government should build a really grand temple like the one in neasden in London.
It could become one of Pakistan's iconic temples.
