New Delhi, Feb 28: They could hear shots being fired, sense smell of property and vehicles being burnt and feel the stones being pelted. Despite the mayhem that unfolded just a few steps away from their doorsteps, many Muslim households did not feel unsafe due to their Hindu neighbours during the violence in Delhi earlier this week.
Tarannum, a resident of Chand Bagh, said she cannot thank her neighbour Nem Singh enough for saving 15 members of her family that fateful night of February 25. Singh, an auto-rickshaw driver, lives right across her house.
"I could hear the thumping on the door. Our neighbour came to rescue us and assured us that no harm would come to our family, " said Tarannum who lives in lane number 7.
"We thought khayamat has come. Our kids too got scared. Those indulging in rioting are just terrorists. Hindu brothers gave us shelter and saved us. How should I say that they are Hindus or Muslims? When we were under attack, these Hindu brothers provided us safety. We should not fight, " said Tarannum while recounting the horror.
She said a mob has no face, no religion. "I want to tell everyone mob has no name, no religion. Kaun sa pathar kisne mara kisko laga pata hai kya? Pathar ne mazhab dekha kya? (Which stone was thrown by whom, who was hit, does anyone know. Stone does not have a religion," she said.
Singh said he could not bear the wailings of his neighbour's kids.
"Dar to tha par apni gali mein kisi ko pareshan nahi hone dena tha. (I too was afraid but I could not have let them hurt my neighbours)," said Singh when asked if he could have also been attacked for giving shelter to Tarannum family.
"I told them that the rioters will have to go through us first. We all were equally scared," recalled Singh.
Jameel, another local resident, said that his Hindu neighbours were even ready to sacrifice their lives to save him from the ruthless terrorists hired by pro-CAA politicians to unleash violence against Muslims.

Dear Mohammad and Syed Jubail, Every one has a right to say his opinion or comment on any issues. so please refrain yourself from wrong comments.
Thanks to PFI to register their unhappy on Ananth statement against Islam and Muslims.

Rakesh Doha, Kindly refrain from commenting against muslims as you are in a muslim country and should be thankful that your daily bread is coming from muslims. First clean your thinking SWACH BRAIN
Sagar & Rakesh please give one anti national activity of PFI...

We all knew after Modi government u all people are frustrated....u all require a change now better all chaddi gang migrate to Nepal because no one will disturb u there...
azadi from PFI, well known anti national group, let me give one example if your true believer of god your should support all the religion. bhagwan commented against hindu god !!! if u people are not anti national u have to protest against that also. clearly pfi related all people and groups are anti national. if u want a wonderful national please avoid protest against the one who commented on u, your god, protest against effects on each and every one,
KICK OUT RSS FROM THIS BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY....THEY DONT DESERVE TO BE A PART OF THIS LOVELY COUNTRY.......I LOVE MY INDIA
I HATE RSS IN INDIA
WE WANT AZAADI FROM RSS, VHP,BD SRS, ANTI NATIONALISTS GROUP....
SAVE INDIA FROM RSS
PFI is only hope for the future
People criticise only those who work for the community....as you see that RSS was attacking MULIMS verbally and physically ....but time has changed .....it now attacks verbally PFI (as it has no guts to face PFI physically) because PFI fight to the limit against any elements which is against our constitution and against any Fascist so called Powers and against Anti nationals like Muthaliks who hoisted Pakistan flags
by the way we forgot that Govts taken the Sindhagi Flag issue than JNU fake slogan issues...this is real Fascism
come on people ...dont here gossips against Popular Front of India ...its all Gossips either from So called Secular Muslim leaders who for their self interest go against it ...or RSS who are seeing PFI as thret to their ultimate Goal of Brahminism INDIA
u guys cannot do anything , what happened to baby nirbhaya ( fake case) , all people know about your community mentality .instead of do some good job like swach bharath . we dont see no proactive lead taken by muslim community on this part .
guilty must be punished, good luck pfi u will get justice.
anti national protest, anti national party of india.
PFI doing good protest, protest till ananth gets maximum punishment.
