Belagavi, Feb 22: A madrasa in Karnataka’s Belagavi district hosted a Hindu-Muslim mass marriage on its premises on Friday, sending a strong message of communal amity. As many as 76 Muslim couples and 25 Hindu couples entered marital life on the occasion.
Madarsa Al Arabia Anwarul Ulooma, an Islamic religious institute in Bailhongal, 50km from Belagavi district headquarters, played host to the event that was organised by Jamia Faizan-ul-Quran and Issa Foundation, which has conducted mass marriages on a bigger scale in Gujarat.
The mass marriage comes a month after the 100-year-old Cheravally Jamaat Masjid in Kerala’s Kayamkulam in Alappuzha hosted a Hindu wedding, complete with a vegetarian feast for 4,000 people. A Hindu priest led the rituals, and the couple sought the blessings of chief imam Riyasudeen Faizy of the mosque.
At Bailhongal, moulvis and pontiffs led the marriage proceedings and asked the couples to read passages from Quran and Bhagvad Gita.
The Hindu couples were gifted a copy of the Gita, and newly-married Muslim couples received a copy of Quran. The organisers provided each Hindu bride a mangalsutra. Bailhongal MLA Mahantesh Koujalagi blessed the couples at the event, which was attended by more than 4,000 people.
Mohammad Rafique A Naik, a member of Jamia Faizan-ul-Quran, said they have gifted each couple a refrigerator, an almirah and a tailoring machine. Ranjita Kalala, a bride who married a daily-wage labourer, said her family couldn’t afford the cost of a wedding, adding, “When we learnt about the Bailhongal madrassa’s plan, we agreed to sign up because it also sends out a message of communal harmony.”
Morena's Khedakala village made headlines after the people of Muslim community here gave land to Hindus to build 'Sri Ram Janki Temple' in the village.

99% Muslims over all do all haram business.... Monarch is prohibited.. still saudi has monarchism ..... Idol worship is haram... u will find highest darga in India...... Interest is haram... 90% of bank borrowers and lenders are muslims..... highest default and interest payers in bank are muslims ... are Muslims..... ... my dear brothers before saying haram and halal.. first lets be perfect and then talk about haram and halal.....
#ummar,
Idol worshiping is forbidden in Islam, to support it or fecilitate it by any of the way is forbidden or it is like supporting idolatery,,,
Regarding your examples, prayer by Khalifa Umer or any muslim , at any place of clean is allowed , if there is no any idolatery supported images or any articles....and same way in islam , it is forbidden to harm any non muslim worshiping places...as mentioned by your second example...
This is surely Interest money, Bank Interest is Haram in Islam, Many Muslims have disputed land in their posses. these land either they have to give on charity or live for the Govt. So better to give to Ram Temple since Ram temple is very less in our country comparing to Snake temple and Monkey temple...Useless Muslims who did this all of them reserved places in hell surely Almighty Allah will punish them severely Insha Allah...!!!
NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI... For Sure it means there is no image of GOD.
Ram is a HUMAN and Human has a picture. And U go against the VEDAS.
I think this guy want to deviate the locals & himself far from the TRUE GOD, who says God forgives every SIN except associating PARTNERs with him.
May ALLAH protect us from associating PARTNER with him knowingly & unknowingly.
