Saharanpur News: A picture, a comment and then boil in religious and political circles. Recently, in a picture which went viral on social media, Samajwadi Party MP Dimple Yadav and other leaders were seen meeting in the mosque in front of Parliament House, which has led to a new debate. Since the mosque is considered a place of a Pak and Ibadat, Maulana Sajid Rashidi made objectionable remarks on the presence of women leaders in the picture,
Which made the controversy more fierce. The language used about Dimple Yadav in Rashidi’s statement was not only described from social perspective but also considered against Islamic Adab and Sharia. His statement was to hurt women’s dignity and question the sanctity of the mosque.
Kari Isaq Gora’s Answer
The most balanced and strict reaction to this dispute came from the famous Ulema Maulana Qari Isaq Gora of Deoband. He said, “The person with whom Maulana is associated with,
Such a non-unconventional language cannot be expected from him. It is not only a vigilant of women but also against the basic training of Islam. ”Qari Gora also demanded that Sajid Rashidi should publicly apologize, as his statement harms the religious tehzeeb and promotes maliciousness against women.
Mosque and politics: Should borders be fixed?
This entire incident has raised the question whether it is permissible to raise questions about the presence of women at a public religious place? And if a female politician discusses in a mosque, should her respect be crushed? There has always been a need for dignity in public and religious life.
Such statements not only hurt social harmony, but also tarnish the image of religion. Now it has to be seen whether Sajid Rashidi apologizes or remains adamant on his stubbornness, but this issue definitely told that women in Islamic society are also entitled to respect and participation.
