I have embraced Islam. It’s my decision… For my happiness: TV actress Dipika Kakar

Mumbai, Mar 6: Popular Indian actress Dipika Kakar, who rose to fame as the leading lady in Hindi serial Sasural Simar Ka, has finally admitted that she has embraced while warning people against interfering in her personal life.

31-year-old Deepika, who had her Nikaah with co-star Shoaib Ibrahim on February 22 this year after an elaborate wedding ceremony which included Haldi, Mehendi and Sangeet, now prefers to be known as Faiza Ibrahim. The marriage was solemnised in presence of family and close friends in Maudaha, Shoaib’s village. The couple then hosted a lavish bash for their friends in the TV industry here.

In a recent interview, Dipika opened up about her conversion. She said, “It's true I have done it… I think it’s a very personal matter and I don't think I need to talk about it openly in front of the media. For the audience and media we are actors have always shared everything. All our happy moments we have shared with you all, but this I think is a very personal space and I don't give anyone the permission to enter the space. Definitely, it is true and I am not denying it.”

“I am very happy and proud that I have done it for myself and my happiness. My family was with me in this decision and my intentions were to hurt anyone. This is my decision,” she added.

Shoaib and Dipika have known each other since they worked together in Sasural Simar Ka. Shoaib quit the show within the first few months but Dipika continued to be a part of it for a very long time. Love blossomed between them after Shoaib left the show.

They had participated in celebrity couple dance show Nach Baliye last year and it was on the show that Shoaib had proposed to Dipika for marriage.

Dear All,

Please note few of these points about Islam.

 

  • Islam never permits anybody to accept Islam forcefully.
  • Converting to Islam should be only by studying its basic teaching and believing in it.
  • If a person has no faith he should not be forced to accept Islam.
  • But everybody have the responsibility to  know what is God’s true message and then to take the wise decision. If he disagree, still he can discuss and clear the doubts.

     

  • If it is God’s true message, there is no doubt, it will be the acceptable quality.
  • If it is human made or edited message, definitely, it will be not perfect religion, because the God’s religion does not deserve to be corrected and edited by human being,

Wish you all the best.  May God bless you with happiness and good health always and you lead a happy life forever.   Our prayers are with you.  But try to keep away from unnecessary things and lead a simple life. 

Bro.. its other way round. Hindu girls are falling love with handsome guys and beautiful religion

This is called true Islam. When 27 Karsevaks like Balbir Singh can embrace Islam , you just imagine the power of Islam.  

 

 

Mix equal quantity of love and jihad in a cup and drink it...

 

and dont forget to buy burnol to cool off your bloody b***

In the Quran the chilling & fearful explanation of  Hell fire & HELL is there to those who reject ONE CREATOR and associate partners with him and worship all those demi-gods.

 

LOVE of His True last messenger & ONE CREATOR is the only way to escape from the HELL fire and attain HEAVEN.

 

JIHAD – constant struggle with oneself to be obedient to God, struggle (Jihad) against oppression of all kinds unleashed by enemies of humanity.

 

It is human nature to search for truth and aspire purity rejecting all manmade, false, ungodly beliefs & customs. No force on the earth can stop this and that is the reason thousands are attracted on daily basis to the Religion of Peace & Truth - ISLAM.

Wake up

How long will YOU ignorants blame love jehad.. We request you to OPEN the QURAN (the quranproject) online and check what is written about love jehad... Unless YOU learn about quran .... YOU are following the RSS commandments and singing the same tone (it's love jehad) since years... When U guys open up your God given intellect.. Dont be SLAVES of RSS ... Use your intellect to know WHY PEOPLE are REVERTING to ISLAM... instead of blaming and licking the politicians and the haters of Islam.

This all happens because you bloody morons donot understand what is love and care all about.

Go drink sleep on streets, make your wife & childrens (some people dont have that too) wait home, come home next morning once again in Bar... Your life begins and Ends in BAR & Restaurent.

Dear Brother Study about Islam than you come to know what the hell is there in Islam (Alhamdulillah).

This is called love jihad. These muslim men make friendship with beautiful Hindu girls, make them fall in love with them. After wedding blackmail them to become Muslims. Need to put an end to this ugly practice at the earliest. What the hell is there in that religion.

Bengaluru, May 31: In spite of opposition, chief minister BS Yediyurappa has appointed his former personal assistant and maternal grandnephew NR Santosh as his political secretary.

Santosh is the fourth political secretary to the CM besides SR Vishwanath, MP Renukacharya and Shankaranna Munavalli. 

Santosh was arrested for allegedly trying to kidnap Vinay NS, personal assistant of BJP leader KS Eshwarappa in 2017. He's also facing attempt to murder and dowry harassment charges.

The 30-year-old had fallen out with the CM's younger son BY Vijayendra soon after the BJP came to power and had been reportedly asked to keep away from him. He had identified with some MLAs who were up against the CM.

It's said the appointment was made to send out a message to the rivals after some MLAs launched a renewed campaign against Yediyurappa over a dinner meeting at BJP MLA Umesh V Katti's house. 

Though Yediyurappa was not keen, sources said Santosh brought pressure from RSS and some BJP leaders, whose help he had sought to reunite with the family. 

Santosh from Tumakuru is the son of the CM's sister's daughter. He was Yediyurappa's Man Friday and his job was confined to ensuring he took his medicines on time.

Dubai, Jul 29: Muslim pilgrims on Wednesday begin the annual Haj, downsized this year as the Saudi hosts strive to prevent a coronavirus outbreak during the five-day pilgrimage.

The Haj, one of the five pillars of Islam and a must for able-bodied Muslims at least once in their lifetime, is usually one of the world's largest religious gatherings.

But this year only up to 10,000 people already residing in the Kingdom will participate in the ritual, a tiny fraction of the 2.5 million pilgrims from around the world that attended last year.

"There are no security-related concerns in this pilgrimage, but (downsizing) is to protect pilgrims from the danger of the pandemic," said Khalid bin Qarar Al Harbi, Saudi Arabia's director of public security.

Pilgrims will be required to wear masks and observe social distancing during a series of religious rites that are completed over five days in the holy city of Makkah and its surroundings in western Saudi Arabia.

Those selected to take part in the Haj were subject to temperature checks and placed in quarantine as they began trickling into Makkah at the weekend.

State media showed health workers sanitising their luggage, and some pilgrims reported being given electronic wristbands to allow authorities to monitor their whereabouts.

Workers, clutching brooms and disinfectant, were seen cleaning the area around the Kaaba, the structure at the centre of the Grand Mosque draped in gold-embroidered cloth towards which Muslims around the world pray.

Haj authorities have cordoned off the Holy Kaaba this year, saying pilgrims will not be allowed to touch it, to limit the chances of infection.

They also reported setting up multiple health facilities, mobile clinics and ambulances to cater to the pilgrims.

Saudi authorities said only around 1,000 pilgrims residing in the Kingdom would be permitted for the Haj. Some 70 per cent of the pilgrims are foreigners residing in the Kingdom, while the rest will be Saudi citizens, authorities said.

All worshippers were required to be tested for coronavirus before arriving in the holy city of Makkah and will also have to quarantine after the pilgrimage as the number of cases in the Kingdom nears 270,000.

They were given elaborate amenity kits that include sterilised pebbles for a stoning ritual, disinfectants, masks, a prayer rug and the Ihram, a seamless white garment worn by pilgrims, according to a Haj ministry programme document.

"I did not expect, among millions of Muslims, to be blessed with approval," Emirati pilgrim Abdullah Al Kathiri said in a video released by the Saudi media ministry.

"It is an indescribable feeling... especially since it is my first pilgrimage."

The Haj ministry said non-Saudi residents of the Kingdom from around 160 countries competed in the online selection process but it did not say how many people applied.

Despite the pandemic, many pilgrims consider it safer to participate in this year's ritual without the usual colossal crowds cramming into tiny religious sites, which make it a logistical nightmare and a health hazard.

May 10: Azaan is an integral part of the faith, not the gadget, says veteran writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar, asking that the Islamic call to prayer on loudspeakers should be stopped as it causes "discomfort" to others.

In a tweet on Saturday, Akhtar wondered why the practice was 'halaal' (allowed) when it was, for nearly half a century in the country, considered 'haraam' or forbidden.

"In India for almost 50 years Azaan on the loud speak was Haraam. Then it became Halaal and so halaal that there is no end to it, but there should be an end to it. Azaan is fine but loud speaker does cause of discomfort for others. I hope that atleast this time they will do it themselves (sic)," Akhtar tweeted.

When a user asked his opinion on loudspeakers being used in temples, the 75-year-old writer said everyday use of speakers is a cause of concern.

"Whether it's a temple or a mosque, if you're using loudspeakers during a festival, it's fine. But it shouldn't be used everyday in either temples or mosques.

"For more than thousand years Azaan was given without the loud speaker. Azaan is the integral part of your faith, not this gadget," he replied.

Earlier in March, Akhtar had supported the demand to shut mosques amid the coronavirus outbreak in the country, saying even Kaaba and Medina have been closed due to the pandemic.

He had also appealed to the Muslim community to offer prayers from home in the holy month of Ramzan, which began on April 24.

"I request all the Muslim brothers that now that Ramzan is coming, please say your prayers but make sure that this doesn't cause problems to anyone else. The prayers that you do in the mosque, you can do that at home. According to you, the house, the ground, this all has been made by Him. Then you can do your prayers anywhere," he had said.
