Controversial Islamic preacher Zakir Naik, who was touring Pakistan, was also able to hear Geeta’s sermon there. In front of Zakir Naik, who always spews venom against the Hindu religion, Pakistani Hindu scholar Professor Manoj Chauhan, in his presence, started his talk with a mantra and said that Sanatan is the oldest religion in the world. Talking about the teachings of Lord Krishna in Geeta, Chauhan said that Geeta talks about the selfless work of man. Manoj Chauhan said after the mantra that I always pray to God that Pakistan always remains happy.
Asking his question to Zakir Naik, Manoj Chauhan said that God says in Geeta that society is the workplace of man and man should work only for the welfare of the society. Chouhan said that nowadays the blood of poor and innocent people is shed in the name of religion, which not only discredits the religion but also spreads fear about it across the world. So what should be done to stop those religions and organizations that attempt to spread fear and terror in the name of religion?
On this issue of Manoj, Zakir Naik, who used to talk about fundamentalism, also started talking about humanity. He said people around the world are trying to link religion with terrorism. We should emphasize the things written in the Quran, these things are the same in all religions, we should pay attention only to these. However, Zakir Naik did not give any concrete answer to Manoj Chauhan’s question on what we should do to stop radicalization.
Red carpet welcome for Indian fugitive in Pakistan
Earlier, Zakir Naik, who arrived in Pakistan, met Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, who praised Zakir and said that he had played an important role in increasing Islamic knowledge in the world. After this, Zakir Naik also met Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar. Zakir Naik is currently roaming around Pakistan as a celebrity. Indian government welcomes fugitive Zakir Naik on red carpet in Pakistan: We are not surprised that Pakistan has welcomed Zakir Naik.
In Pakistan, Zakir said orphan girls are useless, controversy
Controversies did not leave Zakir Naik after his arrival in Pakistan either. In fact, Naik did not like the host of a show for orphan girls who called girls daughters, after which he left the stage. Later, when asked why he left the stage and came down, he said that the girls were not mahram. That is why they cannot be called daughters. In Islamic terminology, non-mahram means someone who is not close by blood, is unknown, or about whom there is no information. In such a situation, marriage can be celebrated with those people or with those girls.
Zakir Naik fled India and lives in Malaysia. The NIA has registered many cases against this in India. The Indian government has continually asked Malaysia to extradite Zakir, but so far it has not been possible.
