Social boycott of Muslim youth by religious fanatics for chanting ‘Jai Shriram’

Threatened to be expelled from Islam if he doesn’t seek Allah’s forgiveness

Editorial comments

  • The principles – All religions are equal, secularism, etc. have to be followed only by Hindus ! Secularists and the progressives will continue preaching these principles to Hindus, but they will be silent on such incidents of fundamentalism carried out by religious fanatics.
  • Hindus invite Muslims to perform Namaz in Temples, Hindus organise Iftars, but do religious fanatics ever organise bhajans and kirtans for Hindus in their mosques ? Do they ever wish on Hindu festivals ? However, the reality is, they pelt stones from the mosques on Hindus’ religious processions

Saharanpur (UP) – Ehsaan (Age 22) chanting ‘Jai Shriram’ in UP CM Yogi Adityanath’s meeting has not been socially accepted by Muslims. His relatives have also boycotted him. This meeting of Yogi Adityanath was held on 2nd December 2021. Union Home Minister Amit Shah was also present on the occasion. Ehsaan has been given Police protection due to threats.

Ehsaan said he does not regret chanting ‘Jai Shriram’, Shriram is our ancestor and we are his descendants.

Mufti (a scholar of Sharia law), Asad Kashim, of Deoband said that Islam does not permit such chanting. Ehsaan should meet Maulana and seek Allah’s forgiveness. Otherwise, Ehsaan will be expelled from Islam.
