The Law of ALLAH is should be first preference... Why ! cos he created all that exists and we are his properties... Some people may ignorantly blame as anti national.. But the manager doesnt want to bow to anything except ALLAH...
Why should he bow down to bharth... does it give anything? it doesnt mean i dont love my country.. ofcourse prophet Muhammad pbuh said love your Place.
But many cheddis alwz complain of others when they themselves doing everything against the LaW of the country as well as Law of the CREATOR ...
A time will come where judgment will be given with JUSTICE by the best JUDGE ... that day CRIMINALS will never escape of their dirty POLITICS and DECEPTION>
Worship your CREATOR not his CREATION.
What has been done by the Manger is very wrong not acceptable.
But Don't forget that even RSS don't sing National Anthem even they had not accepted Tri_Colour Indian Flag.
Authorities have to book the manger, Sealing the school is not the solution, let students attend the classes and Teachers do their duties...
All my dear Hindu commentators.
It is very appreciating you expressed your concerns. While commenting, please try to find out what is the reason which indeed prevents them not singing the Jana gana...
There is one main reason, all Muslims and Non-Muslims should understand about a Fundamental point of Islamic teaching.
If there is any teaching which has the most important that is only 1 point. This point has been preached in 1/3 rd of Hold Quran. And the same teaching is in Hadees the book of prophets message.
What is that main message. Perhaps even many Muslims don't know it well.
Please note it is called attributing any qualities or anything to God's quality. That is called against Oneness of God.
Again rewriting the above statement in other way, wholeheartedly accepting, proclaiming that
'There is only 1 God and no other God, nor anything has the quality of God. ' There is only 1 God, no other God, no any power that equates to that 1 and only God.
In contrary if anybody does worship other than that God, or think anything is there having the power OR quality of that God, then that person is committing a grave and UNFORGIVABLE SIN.
This is the biggest and unforgivable sin. This sin can ruin all good deeds of their life for this easy and grave mistake.
Therefore every Muslim should be careful of committing this mistake.
Now coming to our National anthem, the author has escalated the some portion of the anthem, Bharatha to the quality of God.
The intention of Thagorji might have written in good intention. However Muslims are definitely not against him, but the meaning does not allow them to proclaim that sentence.
The same type has been written in VANDE MATARAM SONG.
My dear all Non-Muslims brothers and sisters this is for your clarification and for your knowledge.
Your true well wisher and patriot Indian Muslim.
I don't think this guy had to take it so serious....at least national anthem ko gaane detha...the word vidhata can be kept silent....but don't take it so extreme and defame all together..
