Ulema ka jawaab tou iss pe munhasir hai ke hum oon se sawaaal kaisay poochtay hain. Candlelight Vigil is not a replacement of fateha and dua. Its a way of universal way of showing your respect to a cause or a suffering. Its a message for the love ones that we are with you. Mera nahi kahyaal ke yeah koi biddat hai, na hi yeah kisi quom ke mazahabi tareeqon kee pairvee hai.

In fact if you think of it, roshni is a symbol of eliminating zulm ke andharay. Its just a way of raising your voice against the unjust. If you think if it that way, its 100% in line with the hadees of Prophet Mohammed where he described three ways of how to fight unjust (Talwaar, zabaan, ya kam az kam dil main hee buraa samajhnaa)

a little research and it turns out to be a religious practice
