So an islamic organization in india has issued a Fatwa against Vande Mataram.
What is the take of indian Muslims on GS about this Fatwa?
Fatwa issued against ‘Vande Mataram’ - India - The Times of India
Jamait-e-Ulema Hind or the JEU on Tuesday issued a fatwa against singing national song ‘Vande Mataram’.
*According to a resolution, Muslims should not sing ‘Vande Mataram’ as its reciting is against the Islam.
The resolution, which was passed at the Deoband national convention meet, says that Muslims should not sing ‘Vande Mataram’ as some verses of the patriotic song are against the tenets of Islam. The JEU leader said that the some of the line in the song is against Islam.
Meanwhile, home minister P Chidambaram addressed a Jamait-e-Ulema Hind conference in Deoband today.
Meanwhile, the Muslim Law Board justified the decision saying that (Muslims) can’t offer prayers to anyone but Allah. Kamal Farooqui, a prominent leader of the Board said, “We love the nation but can’t worship it.” *
I agree with the fatwa, in fact singing national anthem of any nation or standing in respect of any national flag amounts to kufr as per Islamic teachings. Its high time Pakistanis too stop doing this act of kufr and stop singing national anthem.
Btw vande matram is not Indian national anthem rather its a national song. Its national anthem is JAN GAN MAN.
