SRINAGAR: The Mutahida Majlis Ulema (MMU), headed by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and including all leading religious organisations of the valley, strongly condemnned the derogatory remarks made by Hindu priest Mahant Narsinghanand regarding the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
“Such blasphemous statements are completely unacceptable to Muslims and all those who believe in respect for religious personalities and prophets. The agenda of these evil individuals, who deliberately hurt the sentiments of Muslims, is to provoke, spread hate, and incite communal violence among communities. As there are no consequences for them, such elements indulge in these outrageous acts and get away with them,” MMU said in a statement.
MMU further said. “Despite his track record as a hate monger, this man is out on bail, which raises serious concerns about the intentions of those in charge of maintaining communal harmony. We demand his immediate arrest and the cancellation of his bail at the earliest. The sanctity of our faith must be respected, and the law must take its course to hold such offenders accountable.”
