in Adwait Siddhanta Adi shankarachtya said the same thing 825AD as has been said by Dr. Sheikh Saleh, Mecca Immam at Mysore. God exists in all human hearts therefore one who loves God cannot hate another human. Dr Saleh deserves to be congratulated for his advice to Muslims in India especially one's like Owaisi.
Really ? Is that what the Koran says about Jews ? Aren't they the descendants of apes and pigs as per the koran ?
Can any truthful Muslim explain what is TAQIYAA
what is KITMAN
You will not see any Muslim religious leaders giving hate speech on stage even in dreams. Islam the message of peace.
We heard lot of Statements from the Cheddi gangs giving the opposite to their followers and misguiding them to do acts which people do without even knowing the reality... just following blindly without knowing what is right & wrong.
THIS is called a MUSLIM LEADER .... the more people hate ISLAM, We should inform the message of TRUE GOD, ALLAH who created all that exists ... May ALLAH guide our Leaders and the people who follow them sincerely and stop hating the people of all religion.
May Allah guide those hindus who are honest in searching for the TRUE GOD. IF ALLAH guides thats the best blessings one can ever have in this LIFE which ALLAH gave us.
