No politics over Religion

Sunaina Malik(Rajouri)

It is very tough for me to comprehend that why time and again notorious elements of Non Muslim community are on an incessant job of disrespecting religious emotions, religious text and religious persons of Muslim community. Recent episode of religious intolerance in Rajouri district is the most shameful example of hurting Muslims out of their faith. It was on 18th July, 2015 that some tarnished youth of Jawahar nagar area of Rajouri have written (Kalme-e-toaba) with piece of chalk over a black piece of cloth, reduced it to dust first by rubbing it with their dirty shoes and then put it to ashes.  Undoubtedly, it was a condemnable and appalling act.  Irony over is, all those elements are still out of bars.

This happening cannot be called as, an act by mistake. This was a designed programme of some tarnished men, who crave to communalize the peaceful atmosphere of Rajouri. If, it was an act of error then these culprits would not able to write (Kalma-e-toaiba) over piece of paper so easily. As, it is difficult to write even by a Muslim then  how a Hindu could write with out any pre practice. This reprehensible episode has further widened the gap between the hearts of two communities living in Rajouri. It has also deepened the color of abhorrence amid Hindu and Muslims.

In count to this, our  administration along with so called local leaders under their vested interest, have tried to decipher this sensitive religious issue by mere (Mafi talafi), parting the culprit out of bars. It was very tough for responsive youth to acknowledge this solution as a result, they agitated. To your revelation, they were beaten badly and were kept behind bars for a couple of days under serious charges. Here, I am very apologetic to say that resolving this serious religious issue by mere (Mafi Talafi) between (Samaji Takedars) of both the communities, is like beautification of a pigmented face of a girl with heavy make up. The moment that make up is washed out, pigmented spots of that girl would emerge over again. Likewise, these infamous ingredient would again execute such in dignified acts if, they are left out side bars.

Story does not impede here, blazing of auspicious pages of Quran, making caricatures of Prophet Mohamed(PBUH), incidents of coerced conversions of poor Muslims are some of the most disgrace full acts which have darkened the face of whole humanity. So far as Muslim community is concerned, no one in the whole universe can confirm even a single act of religious intolerance on the part of Muslim community. Religious teaching of Quran never permits any Momin to dishonor any faith of world. Quran in verse 108 of chapter 6 says ‘Tolerance is  the basic principle of Islam’. Quran in another place says ‘To be your religion, to me be mine’ Moreover it is not justifiable that a Non Muslims in order to sting ISIS or other militant outfits adopt the path of dishonoring ethics of Islam or Islamic scriptures.

In the conclusion, I want to ask a question to the whole Non Muslim community that if we also implement the same corridor of disrespecting your Gita or other religious scriptures, would you leave us uncharged, if no then adhere with me in raising voice for the castigation of culprits of this episode.
