Restore my freedom, allow me to follow Islam and live with my husband: Hadiya tells SC

Akhila alias Hadiya, a Kerala girl whose marriage to a Muslim man was annulled by Kerala High Court in a controversial judgment last year, has told the Supreme Court she wanted to exercise her freedom of religion and choice of marriage.

In an affidavit, Akhila, who was renamed Hadiya after conversion, contended that she was a Muslim and wanted to live like a Muslim.

She also sought permission to live with her husband Shafin Jahan as a couple because she embraced Islam and married him on her own free will.

"I have been under confinement without the freedom that I am entitled to. Even now I am under police surveillance. I most humbly pray that my entire liberty may kindly be restored to me," her 25-page affidavit stated.

A three-judge bench presided over by Chief Justice Dipak Misra had in November sent the 25-year-old woman to Salem in Tamil Nadu to pursue her studies after taking her out of the custody of parents.

Her father Asokan K M had alleged that her husband was merely a "stooge" in a "well-organised conversion machinery". However, Hadiya has repeatedly said that she embraced even before meeting Shafin Jahan.

The court had earlier on January 23 questioned the NIA, probing instances of Hindu girls marrying to Muslim men and larger conspiracy into such marriages in Kerala.

Police, parents, media and NIA were mentally tortured her much.. Atleast if they have little humanity in their heart, let them live together. She is grown up and she can think and decide

When FAITH enters HEART No one can separate it... Worshiping ALLAH alone brings contentment in LIFE of this world which, many are missing  due to their worship to FALSE GOD... ALLAH is most forgiving and most merciful ... it is a blessing for the one who wants to know and understand the CREATOR of all that exists who put soul in our body....to undestand NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI...There is no image of God... WE should look what the CREATOR preserved for his CREATION.... When we try to know the CREATOR, The CREATOR will Guide us to TRUTH. When YOU KNOW the TRUTH... WE Will understand the World which is deceiving us daily now without have shame on those who deceive people.

 

READ the book of the CREATOR who is Na TASYa PRATImA asti...the quran project online will introduce you to our CREATOR . TRY TO know your creator before some one deceive us with their FALSE agendas on our SOCIETY.

Only those who are rightly guided can embrace Islam. Driving a male or female to a right path is under the control of Allah (swt), the creator of the whole universe. It is an unskippable responsibility of the human being that they worship Allah alone. We should realize the truth that there a life after death, where we will be questioned about our acts of worships.

Based on that our Heaven & Hell will be decided. It is the duty of every muslim to convey the message oneness of Allah (worship him alone). Those who accept Islam from their heart, you can turn them away, even you cut them into pieces.

 

Islam never accepts a forced conversion, unless accepted by your own will. The recently used term "LOVE JIHAD" is nothing but a Bullshit.

Bengaluru, Aug 4 : Without mentioning any party leader's name, Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Monday appealed to Congress workers not to make any "defamatory statement" against any political leader on social media platforms.

Taking to Twitter, Shivakumar wrote, "I appeal to Congress workers not to make defamatory statements against any political leader, on matters of health and other issues on social media platforms. It is not in our culture to wish bad for others. Congress is a party that exemplifies brotherhood and humanity."

His statement comes days after Rajya Sabha MP and AICC in-charge for Gujarat, Rajiv Satav comment where he suggested that introspection in the party should begin from the time of the United Progressive Alliance -II government.

Later, Satav took to Twitter to clarify his remarks at Thursday's meeting of the party's Upper House MPs. Satav, through a series of tweets on Saturday, said he was not comfortable discussing what goes on inside party meetings in forums outside.
