Give up 3 concepts; kafir, Ummah, jihad: RSS leader to Muslims
Ram Madhav has said that these three concepts are hindering the assimilation of Muslims into Indian society at large.
New Delhi: Urging Muslims to give up the three concepts of kafir, Ummah and jihad, senior Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) functionary Ram Madhav has said that these three concepts are hindering the assimilation of Muslims into Indian society at large.
As reported by The Print, Madhav, a member of the RSS’s national executive committee, said if Indian Muslims “accept” that their roots predate the Islamic invasions of the country and forsake the “iconoclastic” mediaeval history of Islam, Hindus will also stop talking about the “destruction that happened hundreds of years ago”.
He stated that Hindus and Muslims could not come together and negotiate an acceptable settlement on Gyanvapi issue.
The Print further quoted Madhav as saying, “Muslims have to accept that this happened during the mediaeval Islamic invasion. We need to appreciate each other’s religious sentiments. Once that happens, Hindus won’t need to dig up old issues, and also won’t need to see a Shivling in every mosque.”
