Mangaluru, Dec 27: Memorizing the holy book of Quran is challenging in its own way. But this 13-year-old daughter of U T Khader, the minister for food, civil supplies and consumer affairs in government of Karnataka, has inspired all by remembering the entire book by heart at an early age.

utk

Hawwa Naseema began memorizing the holy book from the age of 11 and within two years, she's learned it all. The holy Quran has 114 beautiful chapters and powerful 6,236 verses.

Though she opted to lead a simple life and avoid publicity, Hawwa has emerged as a celebrity not only among Muslim community but also in the entire Karnataka, thanks to her achievement.

Video clips of Hawwa's Quran recitation started going viral on social media ever since she was formally conferred theHafizah' title at a convocation ceremony held at TMA Pai International Convention Centre in the city on December 24.

Thousands of netizens belonging to different faiths have hailed Hawwa's achievement. Inspired by her, many social media users have vowed to encourage their daughters to memorise the holy book.

The story behind Hawwa's achievement is touching: Khader sent Hawwa to learn the Quran to keep a vow he made near the Kaaba in Makkah, after the girl was lost in the crowd during the Haj pilgrimage a few years ago.

Interestingly, it was also the wish of Hawwa to discontinue material education after Class V and began Islamic studies. Despite being the only daughter of a prominent minister, Hawwa preferred to stay in a hostel to mingle with poor and orphaned children and understand their difficulties.

Initially, Hawwa joined an Islamic course at Madrasathul Bayan, Adkathbail, in Kasragod district of Kerala. Later, she joined Tanfeezul Quran Women's College at Konaje in Mangaluru Mangaluru. Al Hafiza Sumayya is her teacher at the institute, which is headed by Hafiz Muhammed Ziyad Nadvi from Thiruvananthapuram.

Hawwa has higher goals. She intends to pursue an Islamic course in a well-known university like the Islamic University of Madinah and then set up a religious education institution to help those who want to pursue Islamic studies.

Absolutely no problem or restriction for women in Islam either in claiming rightful share in her father's property or acquiring knowledge, leading the community, assuming any responsible position or doing any activity under the sun that are permitted by Islamic Law. Sister Hawwa has already set her goal to be the Head of the Islamic Institution and impart knowledge, we pray Allah (God) to grant her success and be a role model to other kids.

You have became a special person of Allah.

May Allah Ta'ala bless you.

The next steps commanded are

- Understand its meaning,
- Follow its teaching
- Share with others as much as possible, regardless their background from which faith they are. This is difficult job, but possible with HIKMATH and DIPLOMACY.

It is hard truth, because Islam has come for guidance for all, not just for Muslims only. So it belongs to all people. It is everybody's right to know and duty to know.

May God help us to learn the truth and practice it.

Good to learn that the child is doing something not on Mobiles or iPads. But what next for this girl child? Can she become a Moulvi for Muslim men when she grows or a Khai? Does Islam provide this liberty to girls? Can the readers show some light on this?

One of the rare qualities of Hafizah Hawwa Naseema is that she does not wear any gold ornaments. However, she was given a golden finger ring during the convocation by her institute. The institute gives golden ring to all the females who complete Hifz (memorizing Quran). This is the first and the only ornament worn by Hawwa.

Mangaluru, July 31: Kanara Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) has unveiled a campaign both on digital media and outdoor billboards on bringing awareness on the right usage of masks, social distancing and hand washing in the fight against COVID19. The campaign has received very good response and attention on social media and with the citizens of Mangaluru.

While the numbers of Covid-19 infected people were increasing and a vaccine would take some more time it was observed that norms of social distancing and other precautionary practices were thrown to the wind. Many people in Dakshina Kannada were found using masks inappropriately. Wearing a mask in a scientific way by covering both the nose and mouth is imperative to control droplets that spread the virus. We need to rise above our inconvenience to fight the virus.

Considering this the KCCI found an immediate need to bring awareness and constant reminder to people on the right usage of masks, social distancing, washing hands and other dos and don’ts to stay ahead of the virus and beat the pandemic.

A digital campaign and an outdoor advertisement campaign were planned by the chamber to remind and encourage people to follow best practices when interacting with others. 

The theme of the Campaign was decided to be “Let’s Fight Back Together” Origin Designext a Creative Agency in Mangalore was roped in to do the creative for the campaign and a team from KCCI worked with the Agency to shape up the campaign with their inputs. In the meantime Indian Red Cross Society Dakshina Kannada and Rotary Mangaluru expressed their interest to support the Campaign. 

Mangaluru based outdoor agencies like Jyothi Advertisers, Kalkura Advertisers and Gee Dee Advertisers agreed to provide outdoor space gratis to this community service campaign. Presented both in English and Kannada, the campaign has been creating waves on social media and on the street, a sign that it is being very well received by the populace of Mangalore city. 

The creative of Half Covered or Half exposed where a model is shown with a mask that exposes the nose and KA-19 v/s COVID-19 (KA-19 being the Vehicle Registration Code for the District) have been particularly making a buzz in the community. All together 14 hoardings are currently on display with various Covid-19 awareness messages. Many business houses have shown interest to participate in this public awareness campaign.

The Chamber hopes this campaign would go a long way in the fight of the city against COVID-19 and play its role in putting the pandemic behind us. “Businesses and our economy has suffered enough, we need to work together to fight this virus, we need to rise above minor inconvenience and win this war,” says Isaac Vas the President to KCCI.

Bengaluru, Feb 22: The Hindu Mahasabha has decided to carry out a 'cleaning ceremony' by using 'gau-mutra' (cow urine) to purify Freedom Park, where pro-Pakistan slogans were shouted as a protest against the CAA, NRC and NRP.

On Thursday, an 18-year-old girl Amulya Leona hadraised slogans of 'Pakistan Zindabad,' after the organisers of the event under the banner of 'Save Constitution' invited her to address the gathering. AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi soon rushed and tried to snatch away mic from her hand.

Amulya, who was arrested by the police soon after the event on charges of Sedition, was remanded to 14-day judicial custody.

Associates of Amulya insisted that she was trying to make a point that nobody in the anti-CAA rallies would hail a ‘long Live Pakistan’ slogan while they would do so for a ‘Long Live Hindustan’ chant.

“She is not dumb. She knew exactly what she was saying. She had a clear narrative in mind, but was interrupted before she could complete it. Her half-comments are now being taken out of context,” said Sujnan, another student-activist. 

“In the end, the campaign is not involved with whatever she said or intended to say. It falls on her to explain herself,” said a protest organiser.
