Agra. On Independence Day, there has been a political stir on the hoisting of the tricolor in the Shahi Jama Masjid of Agra. The city mufti and the local Islamia committee have come face to face. An audio of Mufti Abdul Khubib Rumi is going viral on social media. In which he is saying that this is Gunah e Kabira. Jana-gana-mana has happened at Jama Masjid, that is wrong. Jama Masjid is a religious place. There should not be any non-religious work in this. At the same time, Ashfaq Saifi, chairman of the Uttar Pradesh Minorities Commission, who hoisted the flag in the mosque, has called Mufti’s statement irresponsible.
On August 15, a program of flag hoisting and national anthem was organized at Madrasa-e-Auliya located at Shahi Jama Masjid. State Minorities Commission Chairman Ashfaq Saifi was the chief guest in the program. After flag hoisting and national anthem, slogans of ‘Hindustan Zindabad’ were raised at Jama Masjid. The video of the event went viral on social media. After this the audio of city Mufti Abdul Khubib Rumi went viral on social media.
He was in talks with Haji Aslam Qureshi, the President of the Local Arrangements Committee. Aslam says that there is a madrasa in the mosque. The teachers and employees posted there get salary from the government. The video of the flag hoisting program has to be uploaded. There is a program every year. This time the chairman of the State Minorities Commission, Ashfaq Saifi, had come to the program. The city muftis are opposing the program. Threatening them over the phone. His son is also speaking good and bad. Sometimes he opposes the vaccine and now he has started opposing the hoisting of the tricolor. Mufti’s son Abdul is an employee in the madrasa, he created the controversy. But he is not afraid of any threat. If India’s flag is not hoisted in Jama Masjid, will Pakistan’s flag be hoisted? He has demanded action against the city Mufti by absolving him.
it was said in the audio
In a viral audio on social media, the city mufti is telling Aslam Qureshi, chairman of the Masjid Arrangement Committee, that do not spoil the Jama Masjid. The singing of the people’s mind that is done there is haram. Do not feast on the havoc of Allah Ta’ala like this. Fear Allah, Allah’s hold is very strong.
City Mufti Abdul Khubayb Rumi says that every time the event was held in the grounds of the madrasa operating in the mosque premises. This time the program was done in the mosque premises. Whereas for this, Aslam had warned Qureshi a day earlier that no non-religious work should be done in the mosque. Aslam Qureshi made the mosque a political ground. In the past, a person had sought permission for a procession against dowry at Jama Masjid. Aslam Qureshi did not give permission saying that this is the house of God. Such programs cannot happen here. I have not insulted the national anthem and flag.
Ashfaq Saifi, chairman of the State Minorities Commission, says that the country got freedom after the sacrifice of people of all religions, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian. Independence Day is not a religious festival. This is a national festival. The cities condemn the Mufti’s viral statement on social media. Mufti should withdraw the statement. The country should apologize. They feel that sitting on the throne of religion, the city muftis are talking about politics. He has given this statement at the behest of the leader of any political party. The city wants to ask the mufti that since when did hoisting the Indian flag become a crime.
Program held every year
Jama Masjid chairman Haji Aslam Qureshi says that for the first time flag hoisting and national anthem were not organized in the madrasa located at Jama Masjid. This event is held every year. This time some people are trying to make this program unnecessarily controversial. He is not afraid of anyone. We will continue the program which is already happening in Jama Masjid. He is not afraid of any threat.
