Muslim clerics seek withdrawal of FIRs for offering namaaz on road

[ad_1]
Kanpur: Prominent Muslim clerics in Kanpur have strongly opposed the FIRs registered against hundreds of people for offering prayers on roads on the last Friday of Ramzan and Eid.
Terming the police action ‘unjustifiable’, the clerics, who demanded that the cases be withdrawn, asked if the government or the district administration had decided that no religious event be held in public.
Citing their displeasure, the clerics, who met the Kanpur police commissioner, said in a memorandum: “All of us are guilty of the crime. Arrest not only the 1,700 people booked, but thousands of others also for the crimes mentioned in the FIRs.”

The delegation that met the police chief included Shahr Qazi (Bareli) Mushtaq Mushahidi, Shahr Qazi (Deobandi) Qari Mamoor Ahmed and a dozen other clerics under the banner of Ulema Ahle Sunnat Mushwarati Board.
Last week, the Kanpur police had lodged three FIRs in Bajaria, Jajmau and Babupurwa against over 1,700 people for offering prayers on roads and defying the IPC section 144 that was in force.
The charges were IPC sections 186 (obstructing a public servant in discharging duties), 188 (disobedience to an order duly promulgated by a public servant), 283 (causing danger, obstruction or injury to any person in any public way), 341 (wrongful restraint, and 353 (criminal force to deter a public servant from discharging his duty).
“Such an incident has never happened during festivals that are observed with peace and harmony. The FIRs are aimed at tearing apart the social fabric. Either they be withdrawn or thousands of us who prayed that day will offer their arrest,” Mushahidi said.
The Kanpur police, however, did not respond to the demands put forth by the clerics before the police commissioner.

Eid prayers: 2,000 people booked in Kanpur for offering namaz on road

[ad_1]
Kanpur: More than 2,000 people were booked in three FIRs for offering namaz without permission on a road outside the Eidgah here on Eid last week, police here said on Thursday.
The FIRs were registered separately at Bajaria, Babu Purwa, and Jajmau police stations on Wednesday. No arrests have been made so far.
A video of the people offering namaz on road was made by the police.

“People offering namaz will be identified on the basis of video after which legal action will be taken against them,” said an officer requesting anonymity.
Angry with the police action, Mohammad Suleman, a member of All India Muslim Personal Law Board, told the media that they were being targeted on the basis of religion.
He said that a few people did pray on the road outside the Eidgah because they were late and there was no space left inside the premises.
One of the FIRs was lodged at the Bajaria Police Station against 1,000-1,500 unknown persons including some members of the Eidgah management committee at the complaint of Senior Sub Inspector (SSI) Omveer Singh.
Omveer Singh in his complaint said a large number of people got down to offer namaz on the road as soon as a call for it was made on Eid, violating Section 144.

About 300 people were booked by Jajmau Police, while the third FIR was made at Babu Purwa Police Station in which over 50 people were charged with offering prayers on a public road without permission.
The people were booked under IPC sections 186 (Obstructing public servant in discharging duties), 188 (Disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant), 283 (Danger in public way), 341 (Punishment for wrongful restraint), and 353 (criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty).
Another police officer said that guidelines on Eid prayers had been issued after a meeting with the peace committees and strict instructions were given that prayers should not be held on the street.

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Abdullapurmet police arrested a 29-year-old man on Saturday for robbing a gold mangalasutram (nupital chain) of an elderly woman.
The accused, Varikuppala Shiva Krishna, is a resident of Gosukonda village of Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district. The 65-year-old elderly woman, Mulli Balamma, was travelling on foot from Saddupally cross road to Bandaravirala village on April 7.
According to the police, Krishna approached the woman on a Unicorn motorcycle and convinced her to take a lift from him.

However, he drove the senior citizen to an isolated place en route and stopped the bike under the guise of some mechanical issue.
Once she alighted from the bike, Krishna reportedly snatched her gold mangalasutram and escaped from the place.
A case was booked under section 392 (Punishment for robbery) of the Indian Penal code (IPC) and the accused was arrested by the police.

AIMIM leader booked for offering namaz at public place

[ad_1]
Lucknow: The Lucknow police have registered a case against AIMIM leader Uzma Parveen for offering namaz at the Metro station in Hussainganj.
The matter came to light after the AIMIM leader posted a photograph on Twitter.
Deputy Commissioner of Police, Central Zone, Aparna Rajat Kaushik, said that Uzma had falsely shown the place of offering prayers to be Vidhan Bhawan which is misleading.
Last year, eight people were spotted offering namaz inside a prominent mall in a video that had gone viral on social media days after the inauguration of the international chain outlet.
Later, all of them were arrested.
Kaushik said that Uzma offered prayers at metro station and later tweeted that “one is free to offer prayers at any place as one is free to express his/her view”.
“A case under charges of IPC 153 A (promoting enmity), IPC 200 (giving false information), and IPC 283 (obstruction of public way) has been registered against Uzma,” said the DCP.

Entry of women into mosques for offering namaz permitted: AIMPLB to SC

[ad_1]
New Delhi: The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) on Wednesday told the Supreme Court that the entry of women into mosques for offering namaz inside is permitted.
The board said a Muslim woman is free to enter a mosque for prayers and it is her option to exercise her right to avail such facilities as available for prayers in a mosque.
The AIMPLB said this in an affidavit filed in the apex court which is seized of a plea relating to the entry of Muslim women into mosque for offering namaz.
“It is submitted that the questions raised in the present petition are not in the background of state action. The practices of religion in the places of worship (which in the present matter are mosques) are purely private bodies regulated by ‘Muttawalis’ of the mosques,” the affidavit, filed through advocate M R Shamshad, said.
One Farha Anwar Hussain Shaikh has filed a petition in the top court in 2020 and has sought a direction that the alleged practices of prohibition of entry of Muslim women into mosques in India are illegal and unconstitutional. The plea is likely to be heard by the apex court in March.
The affidavit said the AIMPLB, being a body of experts without any state powers, can only issue advisory opinion based on Islamic principles.
It said the AIMPLB and the apex court, for that matter, cannot enter into the arena of detailed arrangements of a religious place, which is completely privately managed entity for religious practices of believers in religion.
“Considering the said religious texts, doctrines, and religious beliefs of the followers of Islam, it is submitted that entry of women into mosques for offering namaz inside mosques is permitted,” it said.

“Thus, a Muslim woman is free to enter into a masjid (mosque) for prayers. It is her option to exercise her right to avail such facilities as available for prayers in a masjid,” the affidavit said.
It said the AIMPLB does not want to comment on any contrary religious opinion to this effect.
The affidavit said that Islam has not made it obligatory on Muslim women to join daily five times prayers in congregation nor is it obligatory for woman to offer weekly Friday ‘Namaz’ in congregation, though it is so on Muslim men.
“The Muslim woman is differently placed because, as per doctrines of Islam, she is entitled to the same religious reward (sawab) for praying as per her option, either in masjid or at home,” it said.
The affidavit said there is no religious text authorising “free intermingling” of genders in any masjid.
“It is submitted that the Masjid An-Nabawi in Medina has separate spaces/chambers for men and women inside the mosque. In the area surrounding the Masjid An-Nabawi, designated and separate spaces are available for men and women worshippers with temporary barricades in place demarcating them,” it said.
The affidavit said when it comes to performing namaz around the Kaaba in Mecca, there are temporary arrangements by putting barricades to provide separation between men and women worshippers during the prayer.
“The etiquettes of prayer, particularly no free inter-mixing of both sexes, are adhered to willingly, strictly, and sincerely by all worshippers whether men or women,” it said.

PM Modi presents chadar for offering at Ajmer Sharif Dargah

[ad_1]
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday presented a ‘chadar’ for offering at the Ajmer Sharif Dargah on the occasion of 811th Urs of Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti.
“Presented the Chadar which shall be offered at the Ajmer Sharif Dargah on the Urs of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti,” the Prime Minister tweeted.
Minority Affairs Minister Smriti Irani along with the President of BJP’s Minority Morcha, Jamal Siddiqui, met Modi at his residence to receive the ‘chadar’.
A delegation under the leadership of Irani will offer the chadar at the Ajmer Sharif Dargha.
Speaking to IANS, Siddiqui said, “We are on our way to Ajmer Sharif taking the ‘chadar’ presented by the Prime Minister with the prayer for peace and prosperity in the country. He wishes India to become a global leader. His message is all about peace and botherhood.”
Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti, also known as Khwaja Gareeb Nawaz, was a Sufi saint of the Chisti order. He is known to be the direct descendant of Prophet Muhammad.
Born in Sistan (present-day Eastern Iran and Southern Afghanistan), he travelled all the way from Lahore to Delhi, and finally settled in Ajmer. His tomb in Ajmer, the Ajmer Sharif Dargah, is one of the holiest Islamic shrines in the world.
Muslims from across the world visit the Dargah every year to offer their prayers. Not only Muslims, people belonging to different religions also visit the shrine throughout the year.

To commemorate the death anniversary of the beloved Sufi saint, the Urs festival is celebrated each year in Ajmer during the first six days of ‘Rajab’, the seventh month of the Islamic calendar.
Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti is also known for establishing the Chisti order of Sufi mysticism in India in the early 13th century. He was the first saint to incorporate the use of music and hymns into prayers. It is believed that Prophet Muhammad once appeared in Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti’s dream and asked the saint to become his representative in India.
