Dear muslim brothers

Naresh and yogiesh are one who are playing devide the muslim game in this portal and we muslims are still fighting who is right and wrong.Lahi laha illallah muhammadur Rasoolallah.follow this and there will be no fights.regarding naresh every one in this world know who is worshiping the creator and who is worshiping the creations.

mr. well wisher, do you know the difference between worship and respect? i think you wahhabi people dont know what is the term worship? here these people is believe in Allah as a creater and the worship is only belongs to him , then how could they worship on tomb, your blind and stupid yahoodi-wahhabi mind doesnt make any sence. first learn history, and try knowing actual islam and sufism. may allah grant you a hidaya.

Dear Mr. Naresh & Mr. Yogesh, well said. Islam never promotes worshipping the creation, but the creator. They don't even know the "Baalapaata" of Islam. May Allah (SWT) guide them to the right path. I feel pity for them. I think Govt. should take the necessary step to curb such non-sense celebrations. Mere wastage of money. It could be used in the development of the city instead.

Forget haters.. Hats off. Great culturural gathering

Fake followers. These gathered people are worshiping the creation not creator. They are worshiping a thing/physical object/material. shame

You do believe in darga's..! These people are not real muslims
