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.

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, May 5: After Congress delegation was denied to donate a cheque of Rs one crore to ensure free transportation to migrants, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president DK Shivakumar said that Congress party can go anywhere and help anyone they want and BJP leaders must understand what constitutional rights are.

Earlier on Monday, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister who holds the transport portfolio, Lakshman Savadi suggested the Congress delegation for donating at least Rs 150 crore to the Chief Minister's Relief Fund instead of handing over a cheque of Rs one crore as a donation in order to bear the transportation fare of the migrants.

While reacting to Deputy CM and other BJP leaders' comments, Shivakumar said, "BJP leaders must understand what constitutional rights are. Who are these BJP leaders? They are now entering to help migrant workers after RSS guidelines. They must understand that we are a party and we can go anywhere and help anyone we want."

Congress leaders on Monday met Savadi to handover a cheque of Rs one crore in order to donate money for the migrant workers' transportation.

However, Savadi did not accept the cheque and suggested the Congress delegation to donate a bigger amount to the CM Relief Fund.

While addressing media after meeting the Congress leaders' delegation in the leadership of KPCC president, DK Shivakumar, Savadi said: "Congress has a history and its a wealthy party, still if Congress leaders want to donate, at least they must donate Rs 150 crores to the CM relief fund to fight COVID-19."

DK Shivakumar yesterday slammed the government and urged to depute free transport services to migrant workers, he asserted that Congress will donate money in this regard.

But the Managing Director of KSRTC denied to accept the cheque of Rs one crore and suggested the Congress delegation to meet transport minister or Chief Minister and donate to CM relief funds. Hence, today congress leaders met deputy CM Lakshman Savadi and tried to handover Rs one crore cheque which he did not accept.

After Congress leaders slammed the government and people criticised the decision of collecting bus fares, CM BS Yediyurappa ordered for free transport service to migrant workers.
