#Sunni Waqf Board action
Note
Genuinely curious, because you seem to hate the Ram Mandir... or how you think one party/ruling government is using it for political gain/votes or how it's wasting money etc.
What do you have to say about the Waqf board act? Or the infamous Shah Bano case and the way the Rajiv Gandhi government went against the decision of the Supreme Court to favour Muslim patriarchy. Or the fact that the Congress government banned books like the Satanic Verses to please a certain community. Is this not politics of appeasement?
You say that the ruling party is playing politics over religion, but hasn't every party done it? It's not like BJP was even hiding it, they've been campaigning for the Ram Mandir rebuilding for decades. It doesn't make it automatically a bad move.
Besides, Ram Mandir is built through devotee donations, so why so much vitriol against it? If Hindus are giving money to construct a temple, it's solely their own decision. I genuinely don't understand why there's so much hatred for it. If a community is reclaiming their holy land, which had been forcibly ruined and rebuilt into another type of building, it's not a bad thing. Plus, a big chunk of land was given to the Sunny Waqf board to build a beautiful mosque in Ayodhya itself, which has begun construction this year (iirc). Both communities will have their interests restored.
Why can't we move on and celebrate the Ram Mandir rebuilding and inauguration? Is decolonization and reclaiming of a place of cultural significance not important?
(I know that some people are being too aggressive about it, but the majority isn't. They're simply celebrating and praying. And some of them actually got attacked for it.)
Okay. Since you're genuinely curious, I'll answer this.
"Why am I criticising the current ruling party for playing politics of appeasement and not any of the other parties?" I'm criticizing them BECAUSE they're the ruling party. They have been in power for close to 10 years now. That's more than 1/3rd of my whole life. This is a hilarious question because I would've been criticizing the same action if it would've been taken by any other political party. I don't have a problem with the party, I have a problem with what they're doing. All citizens are SUPPOSED to do this, my friend. Criticizing your government on what they're doing wrong is a fundamental part of a democracy.
"Politics of appeasement." I hope you understand the difference between appeasement and religious nationalism. The ruling party isn't appeasing anyone. Their acts are guided by their political ideology of Hindutva. I fundamentally disagree with their ideology. I do not agree with them when they say being Hindu is integral to being an Indian. I do not believe in maintaining a Hindu hegemony in India. I simply refuse to accept an ideology that was LITERALLY INSPIRED BY FASCISM AND THE IDEAS OF RACIAL SUPERIORITY.
"What do you have to say about so-and-so?" You know, I would've criticised things I believe are harming our country and power when the governments you speak of were in power. Unfortunately, in certain cases I was not alive then to criticize them and in a few cases, I was a child and I did not know how to form complex sentences. I do not believe in essentialism, you understand? I do not believe that any religion or political party is essentially good or bad. I believe in judging them for what they do.
"They've been campaigning for the Ram Mandir for decades. It doesn't make it automatically a bad move." It's imperative for you to understand this, it is politically a good move and in all other ways a HORRIBLE move. They get the support of all the Hindus who make up the majority of the population? Decent political move. Who could begrudge them for using DIVIDE AND CONQUER as a strategy? But in doing so, what kind of monster have they created? Have they created a billion people who think religious-nationalism is an okay direction for the country's future? Is that a good move, I ask you.
"Ram mandir is built through devotee donations so it's okay." That's close to ₹1,800 crores. (Estimated amount because of course, there's no transparency in the donation system so that we know who donated what amount.) Do you seriously believe all that money came out of the pockets of average working class Indians? Or did the ultra wealthy businessmen fund this religious project and get massive tax breaks in the process? But yes, I'm sure there's no fuckery going on with the money because it's out of DEVOTION. That makes it okay, I guess.
Now we come to the part that is the worst part of this anon message, according to me.
"Reclamation and decolonization." You use these words so lightly and I find that offensive. These words are HIGHLY tied to power structures. Who has the power right now? Is it the mythic evil Islamic conquerors of 400 years ago? Or is it a political party that believes in hindu nationalism and is funded by the ultra wealthy billionaires because said party helps them get even richer? Who is reclaiming what here? I want you to ask yourself this. Can a powerful majority claim reclamation when they tear down a building to build another building there?
"They tore down the temple and built a mosque there" And now you've torn down the mosque and built a temple there. Congratulations, you've won the game. Where do we go from here? Will everyone be happy now? Has peace been restored? A great evil destroyed? What story are we telling ourselves here? Will the religious fanaticism go away now? Will the hatred that has been cultivated in the hearts of Hindus against Muslims be sated? Or will it find more avenues to spread itself?
Decolonizing the mind, right? I wonder why we're only focused on decolonizing against the islamic past and not anything else. But it's okay that India is currently colonising Kashmir. We don't believe in decolonisation when it comes to Kashmir. We don't believe in decolonizing from the system of capitalism that is choking the lives out of us. HELL, WE DON'T EVEN BELIEVE IN RECLAMATION SEEING HOW WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH GIVING THE BARE MINIMUM RESERVATION TO CERTAIN COMMUNITIES AS A REPARATION FOR THE HARM THEY'VE HISTORICALLY AND CURRENTLY SUFFERED AND ARE STILL SUFFERING.
I don't want people to talk to me about reclamation, reparation and decolonisation before they accept their own hypocrisy.
Anon, you say have so much vitriol and hate towards a mandir. I should let people celebrate. Did I stop you personally from celebrating? Did I beat up somebody for trying to shove their religious agenda on me? All I did was talk about how sad I am that this is what we've decided to do with our country's resources. Why is one voice of dissent such a big deal to you? Do you want me to shut up and fall in line? Will that be acceptable?

‘Site too far from Ayodhya’: Muslim litigants on land allotted for mosque - india news
Tumblr media
Muslim litigants in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid title dispute case have expressed unhappiness over the location of the five-acre land allotted by the Uttar Pradesh government for construction of a mosque in Dhannipur, saying it is too far from the town. The land was selected by the Centre from a shortlist of proposed sites the state government had sent to it. The site is 25 kilometres from where the proposed Ram temple will come up and 18 kilometres from the district headquarters, Faizabad.Haji Mehboob, one of the litigants in the Ayodhya title suit case, said, “The land is too far from Ayodhya. No Muslim will go there to offer namaz. The land should be in Ayodhya to make it more convenient for us to offer prayers.” Dhannipur village and its adjoining areas have a sizable Muslim population.Khaliq Ahmad Khan, who is a nominee of the litigant Maulana Mahfoozurahman, a native of Ayodhya, said: “The state government should have allotted the land in Ayodhya . There is no justification for allotting five-acre land 18 km from the district headquarters.”Afaq Ahmad Khan, convenor of the Babri Masjid Action Committee, felt the Centre should reconsider its decision. Shia religious leader Azim Baqri also opposed the choice of land for the mosque.Iqbal Ansari, another litigant in the Ayodhya title suit, said, “Land is too far from Ayodhya. It should have been allotted in the city. It is now for the Sunni Central Waqf Board to decide about the Centre’s offer .”It has been a long-standing demand of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad that the mosque should be constructed outside limits of Ayodhya. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s announcement for the formation of a trust to oversee the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya in line with the Supreme Court directive was separately welcomed with a special prayer ceremony at the Hanuman Garhi temple here. Karsevakpuram, the epicentre of Ram Mandir movement in Ayodhya, wore a festive look.“As news of the announcement of the trust by Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached here, sweets were distributed at Karsevakpuram,” said Sharad Sharma, regional spokesperson for the Vishwa Hindu Parishad. At the Bharatiya Janata Party office too, party workers distributed sweets.Shopkeepers near the Hanuman Garhi temple road also rejoiced. “With the construction of the Ram temple, development activities in Ayodhya and footfall of tourists will increase. Our business will grow manifold,” said Madhur Yadav, who owns a sweet shop near the Hanuman Garhi temple. Read the full article

Shut masjids, madrasas: Minorities panel to clerics
New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/shut-masjids-madrasas-minorities-panel-to-clerics/
Shut masjids, madrasas: Minorities panel to clerics
New Delhi: With an increase in the number of Covid-19 cases related to participants of a Tablighi Jamaat congregation in Delhi recently, the Centre has asked all states through its Union Minority Commission to reach out to mosques and madrasas to “strictly enforce the 21-day lockdown and stop all religious congregations.” The commission also wrote to Muslim clerics and religious leaders asking for assistance in tracking down the participants of the gathering in Delhi’s Nizamuddin.
In a letter sent to chief secretaries of states on Wednesday, the commission said, “The Nizamuddin markaz (centre) has seriously violated the advisory of the government, and has put the lives of fellow citizens at risk.” It also reached out to 348 ulemas and imams across the country to “get assistance in tracing contacts”.
“The incident of Nizamuddin (Delhi) where a Jamaat was organized has done a big damage to the efforts of the government to contain this virus. This amounts to a serious violation of the lockdown and advisory to not hold any congregation at any religious place or educational institution. This has put lives of the fellow citizens at risk,” said the commission. “You are requested to strictly enforce the lockdown in all the mosques and madrassas and prevent any gathering, if any, in such places.
Strict action should be taken against the violators.” Local religious leaders may also be engaged to create awareness among the people about the guidelines of lockdown and prevent any gathering in such places, said the letter. “Urgent action should be initiated in this connection,” it said.
The commission also sought assistance from Muslim religious leaders such as Maulana Khalid Rashid Firangi Mahali, Imam of Eidgah, leader of Jamiat Ulama-I-Hind, Maulana Mahmood Madani, members of the Sunni and Shia Waqf boards, Muslim Education Society, Islamic Council, Imarte-Sharia, Anjuman Islamia and Muslim Personal Law Board in tracing contacts of those who attended the Nizamuddin gathering.
The National Commission for Minorities chief Syed Ghayorul Hasan Rizvi said the body had already reached out to more than 100 ulemas and imams to ensure the lockdown is followed. “We are particularly worried about the mosques in congested areas… we want to be sure that the lockdown is being followed… We have sought support from the clerics to also identify foreigners living in areas around the mosque,” he said.

Shia Waqf Board not to allow waqf properties to be used for propaganda
It is not that only Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) which is busy working out its strategy on post Supreme Court verdict scenario but Muslim organisations like UP Shia Central Waqf Board and Jamiat Ulama e Hind too are cautious about the outcome and its aftermath.  The strategy of JuH will be clear in a day or two but Uttar Pradesh Shia Central Waqf Board has sent letters to all concerned persons that none of its waqf properties like Imambada, mosques, mausoleums, Karbala, majar and cemetery should be misused for any propaganda against the Ram Temple. UP Central Shia Waqf board chairman Syed Wasim Rizvi said that no programme should be organised, speeches should be made, dharna or demonstration should be organised and loudspeaker must not be used. No crowd should be gathered in this regard. No caretaker of the waqf property is permitted to violate any norm and if anyone does so action would be initiated. This is to recall that Rizvi has been appealing Muslim community from very long that they should give up their claim over Ramjanmabhoomi as it is a matter of faith to Hindus. Moreover, Mir Baqi was a Shia and the community has the rightful claim over the mosque that it renounces in favour of Ram Temple. However, Sunni community was adamant to build a mosque there.

Ayodhya case: Sunni Waqf Board assents to Kapil Sibal's request to Supreme Court
The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has cleared the air regarding Kapil Sibal's request to the Supreme Court.
Senior advocate Kapil Sibal had asked the Supreme Court yesterday to take up the Ayodhya matter on July 15, 2019, once all the pleadings are complete. 
His request had drawn a lot of verbal attack from the opposition.  
Even the Sunni Waqf Board represented by Haji Mehboob had disapproved Sibal's request to the Supreme Court for conducting the judgment after July 2019.
He said that Sibal asking for a delay in the judgment was wrong and that they want the court to pronounce the judgment as soon as possible. He said: "Yes Kapil Sibal is our lawyer but he is also related to a political party, his statement in Supreme Court yesterday was wrong, we want a solution to the issue at the earliest." 
Clearing the stance of Kapil Sibal, the AIMPLB has said that a stand was taken by the counsels representing Muslim Parties that it was not the right time to take up the matter for final hearing. The Law Board said the stand was taken on the instruction of their respective clients. 
  During the course of arguments in SC, a stand was taken by the Counsels representing Muslim Parties, on instruction of their respective Clients, stating that it was not the right time to take up the matter for Final Hearing: All India Muslim Personal Law Board #Ayodhya

Following the clarification, Haji Mehboob, the Ayodhya case petitioner has also assented to the request of Kapil Sibal.
He said "If Jilani saab is saying that what Kapil Sibal said yesterday was right, then I agree with him."
  If Jilani saab (Zafaryab Jilani,convenor of the Babri Masjid Action Committee) is saying that what Kapil Sibal said yesterday was right, then I agree with him. Don't want to say anything else: Haji Mehboob, Ayodhya case petitioner http://pic.twitter.com/mDggyrqVEg
— ANI (@ANI) December 6, 2017

After Sibal's request to the Supreme Court, leaders from the opposition including PM Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, Ravishankar Prasad, Sambit Patra and many other attacked Sibal and his party asking the party's stand on Temple issue.

Bharatiya Janata Party leader GVL Narasimha Rao  accused Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi of colluding with Babri Masjid Action Committee convenor Zafaryab Jilani and AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi to oppose the construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya. Taking a dig at the Gandhi scion, the BJP national spokesperson said Rahul Gandhi is certainly a “Babar Bhakt” & a “Kin of Khilji”. Rahul Gandhi has teamed up with Owaisis, Jilanis to oppose Ram temple in Ayodhya. Rahul Gandhi is certainly a “Babar Bhakt” & a “Kin of Khilji”. Babar destroyed Ram temple & Khilji plundered Somnath. Nehru dynasty sided with both Islamic invaders. Travesty & Perversity of dynasty! Rao tweeted. The BJP leader’s controversial remark comes a day after Congress leader and senior advocate Kapil Sibal, while arguing for the Sunni Waqf Board in the Babri Masjid case, told the Supreme Court on Tuesday that since the court’s decision in the case would have “very serious ramifications”, hearing be deferred till July 2019 by which time the general election would be over. “Please fix the matter in July 2019 and we assure that we will not seek any adjournments… Justice should not only be done, it should seem to be done,” Sibal had told the court.
