Summary
The so-called Muslim leadership starts protesting whenever government talks about
modernizing madarsa. A section of the community is in the grip of radical Muslims for
centuries and it is their attempt to keep Muslims economically, socially and
educationally backward. Unless there is modernization of madarsa across the country,
crores of Muslims would not be in the mainstream of the country and doors of
development and progress would remain shut for them. To get higher posts, it is
important for Muslim boys and girls to have access to modern education so that they can
compete with students of the other section. This is only possible when madarsas also
teach modern education.
All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen announced to contest 2017 Assembly elections in
Uttar Pradesh on all seats. The concern of Samajwadi Party is natural because it is
Owaisi's party that is going to affect the vote bank. Ittehadul Muslimeen has opened its
office in Lucknow and stared selection process of the candidate. Owaisi has already
expanded his base in Maharashtra and Karnataka now his next target it Uttar Pradesh.
As per a survey done by an American University, propagation of Islam is very fast in
Britain. Number of supporters of Church of England is decreasing very fast while Muslims
are growing very fast. The survey suggests that of the total people accepting Islam and 70
per cent of them are women. Researchers claimed that people are turning towards Islam
because they are fed up of liquor and drugs. It is also disclosed in this survey that number of
churches is also declining. Most of the churched are deserted while mosques are getting
crowed by the day.

Modernization of madarsa opposed
Whenever modernization of madarsa is talked about, the so-called Muslim leaders start opposing it
because they don't want Muslims to be educated and prosperous like other sections in the society. They
want to keep Muslims backward, illiterate and poor.
The Maharashtra government recently announced that madarsas imparting religious education and
don't include Mathematics, English and Social Science, students of such schools would not be
considered as school students. When the state government started surveying such students, a section
of Muslims started protesting it.
Sahafat on July 3 reported that such madarsa would be derecognized which don't teach English,
Science and Mathematics and give only religious education. The state government will keep these
schools in non-school category and students studying there will be out of school education. Funds to
these schools will be released only when they follow the decided curriculum.
Chief of Darul Uloom, Deoband Maulana Abdul Qasim Naumani said that he was against government
controlled madarsas and did not want any assistance from the government to run them because this
allows the government to interfere into the matters of madarsa. The recent decision taken by the
Maharashtra government was against Islam. If modern education is taught there, they won't remain
madarsa. This is a planned conspiracy against Islam and madarsa. He appealed to madarsa across the
country not to take any government help else the government interference would start in madarsa.
National president of Jamiat Ulama Arshad Madni said that this decision of the Bharatiya Janata Party
was not surprising to anyone. The BJP was against Islam so it wanted to close down madarsas. There is
no objection on teaching Mathematics, Science and English but interference of the government in it
would not be tolerated. The government wanted to stop assistance to madarsas that were provided by
the last government. This government somehow wanted to stop all such facilities that were being
provided by the last Congress government.
According to Samajwadi Party MP Maulana Munawwar Salim, the BJP government failed to fulfill
promises that it made before coming to power so it was trying to destroy madarsas by taking anti-
Muslim decisions. The decision taken by the Maharashtra government was condemnable.
Constitution of the country allows Muslims to follow and propagate their religion that right the Modi
government wanted to curtail. “We will fight for the freedom of Islam and Madarsas,” said Salim.
According to former justice Mohammad Suhail Aizaz Siddiqui, the decision of the Maharashtra
government was violation of constitution. According to Supreme Court, madarsas come under
schools. Madarsa is an Arabic word which means school. Meaning of the madarsa cannot be changed
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 6
as per orders from a saffron government. Madarsas don't need any government assistance because
there are many people to help madarsas. Muslims must throw such instructions into dustbin. National
commissioner in minority languages Akhtarul Warse said that neglecting madarsa was not correct. No
one can close madarsas and the government must revisit its decision.
Roznama Rashtriya Sahara on July 3 criticizing the Maharashtra government decision in its editorial
said that the government wanted to close Islamic madarsas therefore it kept students studying in
madarsas out of school children category. The newspaper alleged that the government wanted to
annihilate madarsa by doing this. This makes it clear that the government is working with some
intention. It is wrong to finish madarsas that is testimony to the wrong intention against Islam.
Muslims must unite to save their madarsas.
Akhbar Mashriq on July 4 claimed that the Maharashtra government had been providing assistance to
the tune of Rs 5 lakh to madarsa under its modernization programme. Last year 536 madarsas were
benefitted by this scheme. The newspaper claimed that madarsas were spreading education in remote
areas so hitting them was absolutely wrong. The newspaper expressed hope that looking at the
reaction of Muslims, the government would change its anti-Islamic policy.
Hamara Samaj on July 4 called this decision as anti-Islamic. The newspaper alleged that the
government wanted Muslims children to hate their religion and society. They should be made to
realize that they were becoming backward for opposing modern education. The newspaper alleged
the Maharashtra government did deliberately not constitute Madarsa Board. The newspaper also
complained that on one hand the government wanted them to bring Muslims in mainstream, on the
other they denied 5 per cent reservation to Muslims provided by the UPA government. The newspaper
said that the Maharashtra government was involved in several scams so it was doing all this to divert
people's attention.
Inquilab on July 4 declared in its editorial that the decision of the Maharashtra government was
undemocratic. The newspaper called madarsas as fortresses of Islam which were not dependent on
any help. Despite that communal people are targeting them by making some excuse which was
undemocratic and unconstitutional. The newspaper also published statement of former minister Arif
Nadeem Khan in which it was demanded that along with madarsa, students of Saraswati Shishu
Mandir and Vaidik Vikas Mandir should also be called non school students. According to Congress
general secretary Shakeel Ahmed, the decision of the government was divisive. He alleged that the
government was targeting madarsas on instigation of the RSS. According to Janata Dal (U) leader Ali
Anwar, the decision of the Maharashtra government was based on communalism. Imam of Fatehpuri
Mosque Mufti Mukarram Ahmed termed it testimony of the anti Muslim policy of the government and
alleged it to be murder of constitution and democracy.
According to Sahafat (July 7), minister in Uttar Pradesh government Azam Khan said that this decision
was testimony to the hatred against Islam and Arabic language and this decision was going to have
adverse impact on relations with Arabic nations.
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 7
Urdu Times on July 4 criticized the decision in special editorial calling it a saffron conspiracy to drive
Muslim youths away from Islam. The newspaper claimed that dream of the RSS and saffron family to
keep Muslim youths away from Quran will not be fulfilled. One western intellectual once said that if
you want to rule Muslims drive them away from Quran. When they would not read Quran they would
not be able to lead a life of Muslim. The saffron government in Maharashtra was doing the same. This
was part of the agenda of Hindutva forces. This is an open violation of fundamental right and
constitution. Muslims must oppose it vehemently.
Siyasat on July 5 claimed that had there not been religious madarsa in the country there would not
have been Islam in India. So the BJP government is running campaign against madarsa. The
Maharashtra government knows that it was not possible for madarsa to teach English, Science and
Mathematics on their own expanses so they have made this excuse to finish madarsas. The agenda has
been initiated from Maharashtra. If it is successful, it will be implemented across the country. This is an
example of hatred of Sangh Pariwar for Muslims.
According to Roznama Rashtriya Sahara (July 8), Uttar Pradesh Madarsa Board decided to include
English and computer science as compulsory subjects.
As per Inquilab (July 8), president of Bihar Madarsa Shiksha Board Prof Shamshad Hussain supported
including science and English in madarsa curriculum. He said that women in big number were getting
education.
Background : There is no denying the fact that madarsas are inseparable part of the Islamic education
system. As per Islamic history, during the lifetime of Hajrat Mohammad Saheb his follower Hajrat
Zahid bin Akram had set up a madarsa at the place called Safa which was later shifted to the premises
of Nabi mosque. Around 1100 years ago, madarsa education was started at Madarsa Nijamia.
Curriculum of this madarsa has become the curriculum of all madarsas. This curriculum has got
nothing to do with modern life and it does not teach modern subjects. It does not teach computers. The
biggest Islamic university al Azhar which is situated in Cairo (Egypt) also gives degree like Imam,
Mufti, Maulvi and Khatib et el.
As far as India is concerned, there are no reliable records available about Islamic madarsa. However,
they are spread in every nook and crany of the country. Generally they are governed from mosques
and Imam teaches in it and their teachings are confined to Quran and Islam. Only a few of them are
registered. The number of Islamic madarsas in the country is told to be around 7-8 lakh in which
around 1.5 to 2 crore students take education. These madarsas are generally governed by the
management committee of mosques that gives Imams some honorarium that is called Hadiya. Most of
the time people opposing modernization of madarsa argue that their resources are very limited
therefore it is difficult for them to employ trained teacher of modern subjects. The government is trying
to modernize madarsa since 1992. During the tenure of P V Narsimha Rao his HRD minister Arjun
Singh started modernization of madarsas and some budget allocation was also made. But no
government was able to spend that money because the so-called Muslim leaders are not ready to take
that money. They argue that it will pave the way for government interference into the matters of
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 8
Madarsa that they don't like. HRD minister in the last UPA government Kapil Sibal made an
arrangement of Rs 350 crore for modernization of madarsa to teach modern subjects like English,
Hindi, Mathamatics, Social Science and Computer Education. He sent a proposal to Central Madarsa
Parishad but due to opposition from Muslim leaders it failed to see light of the day. In this years'
budget, the Modi government made a budget allocation of Rs 100 crore for modernization of madarsa.
Modi had said in one of his speeches that he wanted development of Muslims and he imagined Quran
in one hand and computers in other for Muslims. But his attempt is opposed by a section of Muslim.
Madarsas have always been in controversy. It was alleged that they taught terrorism and Jihad which
have connection from foreign countries. Muslim leaders call it fortress of Islam. They say that
expansion, propagation and their identity is essential. They also claim that madaras give education of
Islam not of terrorism. But what answers do they have that all dreaded terrorists and their cadre
belonging to terrorist organization like Lashkar e Toiba, United Jihad Council, SIMI, Jamat ud Dawa,
Taliban, Huji, ISIS, al Ansar, al Jihad, al Barak and India Mujahiddin got education from these
madarsas. The Pakistan government closed down over 7000 madarsas while Egyptian government
closed down almost all madarsas. During the Mushraff regime, action taken by the Army at Lal
mosque is known to all. Indian history is evident to the fact that Islamic madarsas have been part of
jihad for long. In 17th century, chief of Madarsa Rahimia in Delhi Hajrat Waliullah invited ruler of
Afghanistan Ahmed Shah Abdali to end rules of infidels. In the battle of Panipat jihadi students of
Madarsa Azizia fought for the Abdali Army. In 19th century chief of Saharanpur (Gangoh) Madarsa
Ahmad Ismail Barelwi had gone to Balakot to fight against the Army of Ranjit Singh and was defeated.
It is said that Muslim madarsas are getting Rs. 5000 crore foreign help every year on an average. It is a
historical fact that 170 madarsas in Laddakh are managed by Iranian government. The Iran
government pays the salary of teachers working in these madarsas. It is also alleged that madarsas are
being built along the borders with the help of foreign fund where terrorists are taking shelter. Around
173 imam associated with Islamic madarsas have been arrested by the police for terrorist activities.
As far as India is concerned, the biggest organization of Islamic education is Darul Uloom, Deoband
which was set up by a Sunni Wahabi Maulana Kasim Nanotvi in 1866. But from the past one century it
is captured by the Madani family. When Maulana al Najar Shah Kashmiri revolted against Madani
family in 1982, the then PM Indira Gandhi threw his supporters out of madarsa by force. Supporters of
Maulana Kashmiri still run a madarsa parallel in Deoband called Darul Uloom Deoband Waqf. As far
as Darul Uloom, Deoband was concerned it has more than 5,000 students getting Islamic education
there from around 110 countries. This institution provides them free education, books, cloths, food and
accommodation. Interesting thing about this organization was that it never took any government
assistance in the past. The organization has always been run by donations (jakat) provided by
Muslims. Darul Uloom, Nadva is a madarsa of Sunnies in Lucknow which was set up in 1898. Around
3000 students can study there and it too provides free education, food, cloth and accommodation.
Mazharul Islam madarsa of Saharanpur is also very famous. In the past couple of decades, an Islamic
University was set up in Calicut with the help of foreign funds which has arrangement of providing
education to 10 thousand girls and boys. In the past one decade hundreds of madarsas were set up in
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 9
Indo-Nepal border. There are hundreds of educational institutions in the country where higher
education is provided to students of madarsas. They are related to different sects of Muslims. Recently
West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee granted university status to Madarsa Alia. There are
several institutions in Maharashtra and Gujarat at par to a university. Three international level
universities have been set up in Jammu in which 5000 students can get education of Arabic and Islam.
Chisti University was set up in Lucknow for education of Arabic and Persian language by the BSP
government in Uttar Pradesh.
There are four states in the country that have Madarsa Board to control madarsa education. These
states included West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar. The Uttar Pradesh
government has recognized all the degrees provided by madarsas but they are eligible for the
government jobs only as an Urdu teacher. They can get admitted in Aligarh Muslim University,
Maulana Azad University and Jamia Milia Islamia University but door of other universities are shut
for them. The problem is that whatever is taught in madarsa has nothing to do with modern education.
This is the reason that these students are not eligible for government jobs and vacancies advertised by
Union Public Service Commission. Subjects taught in madarsa are not part of the competitive exams.
So students getting educations in madarsas are not eligible for government jobs.

Rashtriya Muslim Manch organizes Roza Iftar
Hindustan Express on July 5 claimed that for the first time in the history of the country RSS organized
Roza Iftar in Parliamentary Annexe. Several Muslim organization and Ambassador of 16 Arabic nation
participated in this programme. Iftar was organized by Rashtriya Muslim Manch. Chief of the manch
and RSS leader Indresh Kumar said that Islam is a religion of peace. It gave lesson to Muslims to respect
other religions. If everyone followed this message of Quran, all could live a peaceful life. He said that
by this programme Rashtriya Muslim Manch had not only given the message of peace and
brotherhood in the country but it the world. He said, “We respect our country that much as much we
respect our mother.” Wherever in the world any country is not respecting border of the other country,
war is inevitable and riots is continuing. God has not given birth to spread hatred and riots rather for
peace, love, goodwill and respecting each other. Ambassador of Egypt Hatim Tangeldeen welcomed
Roza Iftar by Muslim Rashtriya Manch. He said that at present wrong image of Muslims is being
projected and they were being associated with terrorism which is absolutely wrong. However, the
truth is that Islam is a religion of peace and love.
According to Hindustan Express (July 9, 2015), Hindu Mahasabha criticized organizing Iftar by the
RSS. Hindu Mahasabha said that they would oppose it and if the RSS planned to organize convention
of Muslim scholars in Lucknow, it would not allow it to happen. Executive president of Hindu
Mahasabha Kamlesh Tiwari said, “We are making Hindus aware while the RSS is having ties with
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 10
them. This will not be tolerated.” Sadhvi Prachi said that Iftar might be the agenda of the RSS but she
works for Hindus and continue working for them.
According to Sahafat (July 9, 2015), the RSS is organizing Roza Iftar in Uttar Pradesh. Iftar parties were
organized in view of a planned meeting of Islamic scholars in Lucknow. Invitation has been sent to
Muslim leaders of Unnao, Kanpur, Barabanki and Hardoi and this organization will be for common
people and no Muslim leader will be invited because they indulged in politics by statement in media.
Rashtriya Muslim Manch has plans to organize Eid Milan in Uttar Pradesh beside Roza Iftar. It is also
organizing a conference of Muslim scholars in which more than 1000 leaders will participate. This is to
recall that Rashtriya Muslim Manch was set up in 2002 with the guidance of late RSS chief K S
Sudarshan and its purpose was to make the RSS popular among Muslims.

Attempt to incite communalism in the name of
mosques
The cold war between All India Muslim Personal Law Board and Jamiat Ulama e Hind (Arshad
Madani) over control of old mosques worth billions of rupees was also joined by Mehmood Madni –
nephew and political rival of Arshad. Madani constituted an eight-member team of Jamiat Ulama e
Hind to look into the matter of historical mosques. The team included Maulana Haqimuddin Qasmi,
Niyaz Farooqi, Maulana Giyoro Qasmi, Hazi Naushad Aadil, Hafiz Bashir Ahmed, Maulana Yaseen
Qasmi, Maulana Harwan Rasheed and Maulana Omar Imam. This committee has started instigating
Muslim community over old mosques and every week there is news about any such mosques in Urdu
newspaper.
Akhbar Mashriq on July 22 published a report on the front page under a campaign with the tag of
reviving closed mosques by playing up this news report. The newspaper had the headline – Campaign
starts to revive closed mosques, Idol worship continuing in mosques, Namaj banned, mosques become
residence, Mosques become bathroom, the world Allah written in circular form erased. According to
the newspaper, this was started with the report on Mayfair Garden's Makhtoonshah Mosque. To
instigate communal passion, this committee is indulged in false propaganda that in the mosque
premises some idols were installed near a tree. The committee also claimed that this mosque was being
used as residence. The committee also claimed that mosque was in dilapidated condition. The
committee also said that attempts were made to erase Allah written on 18 rounded parapets outside
mosque. The mosque is said to be of the Tughlaq Time and anyone can enter mosque without removing
shoes. The committee claimed that when they tried to offer namaj there, they were not allowed by the
security guard named Jagdish. Interesting thing is that this news report was published prominently by
all Delhi newspapers.
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 11
According to Inquilab (May 31), team constituted by All India Muslim Personal Law Board to study
about ancient mosques has not yet submitted its report. One of the members of this committee Dr
Qasim Rasool Iliyas said that since it was being prepared by different members so it was taking long to
prepare this report. Secretary of the board Abdul Rahim Qureishi said that board was verifying the fact
that how many mosques were there under Archeological Survey of India in which namaj was not
allowed. Jamiat Ulama e Hind (Arshad Madni) has already declared that they were ready to take
control over these mosques whatever money was required to manage them. The newspaper claimed
that there were 60 mosques in Delhi on which ASI has put locks and Muslims were not allowed to offer
namaj there. The newspaper claimed that the number of such mosques in the country was in
thousands.
According to Inquilab (July 13, 2015), Mehmood Madni claimed that ASI allowed tourists to visit
Kuwwat ul Islam mosque in Qutub Minar premises but Muslims were not allowed to enter the
premises. The existence of mosque is in jeopardy due to negligence. Maulana Haqeemuddin Qasmi
claimed that ancient mosque in Tughlaqabad was destroyed due to negligence.
According to Sahafat (June 5), committee of Mehmood Madni visited Mosque in Qudasiabad area and
claimed that mosque was built to offer namaj. If the government files case for offering namaj there, it
was wrong. The newspaper claimed that deputy Imam of the mosque claimed that when attempt was
made to offer namaj there, ASI filed cases against Muslims. The delegation claimed that a temple has
been built in the mosque promises where puja was being performed. As per Imam, the mosque was
built by Mughal Emperor Mohammad Shah's wife Kudasia Begum in 1748.
Rojnama Rashtriya Sahara on June 5 published picture of the mosque along with the temple.
According to Inquilab (June 30, 2015), a delegation of Jamiat Ulama visited Jamali Kamali mosque in
Mehrauli area but security guard did not allow them to offer namaj. This mosque was built by Sheikh
Fazal Ullah in 1528.
Inquilab on June 10 reported that Jamiat Ulama e Hind committee claimed that people openly play
gambling and drink liquor in the mosque situated left to Rajao ki Bawli. Secretary of Jamiat Ulama
Maulana Haqimuddin Qasmi said attributing security guards Devendra and Deependra that people
openly drink liquor inside the mosque but when delegation tried to offer namaj there they were
stopped. There is a Bawli (well) inside the mosque which was built during Sikander Lodi's time.
Sahafat on July 8 reported that a delegation of Jamiat Ulama e Hind entered into Bara Gumbat mosque
in Lodhi garden area but security guard there stopped them offering namaj. This mosque was built in
1543 during Sher Shah Suri regime and cleanliness of this was told to be satisfactory by the delegation.
There are five mehrabs in this mosque on which Quran is inscribed. According to the newspaper, there
is a small mosque in Lodhi Garden which is in a worst condition and there is no arrangement for
cleanliness. Security guard stopped delegation from offering namaj there.
Background : Ever since property rates in cities spiraled, Muslim organizations started showing
special love for ancient mosques and mausoleum. But their focus is on thousands of acres of land of
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 12
hundreds of mosques which has the market value in billions. This is the reason that both the factions of
Jamiat Ulama e Hind along with All India Muslim Personal Law Board are trying to prove to be the sole
custodians of these mosques. As per Archeological Survey of India Act if prayers were offered in these
religious buildings at the time it was acquired only then prayer would be allowed. If the religious
monument was remained barren in that case prayer would not be allowed. When V P Singh came to
power in 1989, then Shahi Imam of Jama mosque of Delhi pressurized him to hand over all historical
mosques under ASI control which was opposed by the ASI officials by saying that there was no such
provision in the present law that allowed offering namaj or puja in ancient shrines. Still 35 such
mosques were forcefully captured by the crowd and started offering namaj. They included mosque in
Safdarjung Mausoleum, Neeli Mosque in Hauz Khas, Jama Masjid of Kotla Firoz Shah, mosque at
Purana Qila and several mosques at Qutub Minar premises. ASI registered FIR against this illegal
occupation but due to political influence, the government did not take any action against illegal
occupants.
Under pressure from Jamiat Ulama e Hind leder Hafizurahman, Humayun Kabir handed over Abdul
Nabi mosque with 21 acres of land to it in 1960 when he was Education Minister in the Jawahar Lal
Nehru cabinet. The present cost of this land is Rs 5,000 crore and this mosque is headquarter of Jamiat
Ulama. This was opposed in Parliament and even in newspapers but no attention was paid to it due to
political reasons. Two days before the announcement of the Lok Sabha elections, the central
government announced handing over 135 invaluable waqf properties to Muslims. Vishwa Hindu
Parishad opposed and the matter was still pending in the court.
But the most interesting story was of historical Jama Mosque which comes under Delhi Waqf Board.
All its expanses are born by waqf board but the family of Shahi Imam has control over this historical
mosque. The newspaper has been talking all this while that Archeological Survey of India wanted to
take control of it but the then PM Manmohan Singh interfered into the matter and ASI failed to take
control of the mosque.

Muslim family adopts Hindu children
According to Sahafat (June 30, 2015), a Muslim pilot adopted two children of his Hindu friend.
According to the high court judge, this is very rare when a family has been asked to adopt children of
the family from the other religion.
This is to recall that a pilot Praveen Dayal and his air hostess wife died in a road accident. They had two
children Aayush and Prarthana. Their grandparents live abroad. They and their other relatives refused
to support them. Pilot Association donated Rs 1 crore for the upbringing of these children. Father of
these children Praveen Dayal and pilot Mohammad Shahnawaz Zahir were very close friends. Dayal
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 13
requested his friends to take care of his children before dying. People with whom these children were
living were not taking care of them. These children requested Zahir on phone to take the responsibility
of their upbringing but there was some legal hassle so the HC ruled Zaahir as their guardian. Zahir had
two children of his own. Zaahir informed that he would take care of them as his own children and
when they would complete 25 years of age their properties and Rs 1 crore would be handed over to
them. Every Urdu newspaper published Zahir's picture with Aayush and Prarthana.
Akhbar Mashriq on June 20 reported this story by calling it a great step. According to the
newspaper, Zahir has a three-story house in Delhi in which his parents and parents-in-law live.
Zahir said that he would not convert them to Muslims but bring them up as Hindus. There are
several examples of adoption but adopting Hindu children by a Muslim is a first such incidence and
a welcome move.

Grave space sold in Delhi
Akhbar Mashriq complained on July 10 that due to increasing population of Muslims, they are not
getting space to bury their dead. A big amount of money is being recovered from Muslims by managers
of graveyard. The newspaper claimed that if anyone wanted to bury his relative they were being asked
from Rs 35,000 to 70,000 for grave space. As per government records there are 416 graveyards in Delhi.
Bodies are still buried only in 28 graveyards rest of them are illegally occupied by DDA, Delhi
Municipal Corporation and land mafia. Several colonies, five start hotels and government building are
built on these lands. Recently a graveyard was captured by the DDA and a park was built but due to
opposition from Muslims they were forced to return it. Waqf board is taking legal action to get
graveyards free from land mafia. According to the newspaper, out of 28 graveyards 6 are such where
most of the bodies are buried. They included Delhi Gate graveyard, Hajrat Nijamuddin graveyard,
Batla House graveyard, Mehrauli Graveyard, Welcome graveyard, Media Graveyard, Jharkhandi
Graveyard and Jafrabad graveyard. Now, there is no place in these graveyards so people are facing
hardship to bury people. Managing Committees are taking advantage of the situation which is selling
space to bury bodies. This makes things difficult for common Muslim. So they are finding it difficult to
bury their dead.

Swift expansion of Islam in Britain
Munsif on June 6 published a special write up in which it was claimed that number of Muslims in
Britain is increasing very fast while number of Christians was decreasing. Mosques are getting
crowded while churches are witnessing thin presence. New mosques are being built across Britain. As
per a research Muslims in Britain are the fastest growing community. As per survey by British Social
Unit, in the last two years the number of followers of Church of England decreased by 20 lakh while
number of Muslims increased 10 lakh. Half of the British are non-believer. They were 1.28 crore in 1983
which rose to 2.47 crore in 2014. Followers of churches were 40 per cent in 1983 that had come down to
17 per cent in 2014. In 1983 Muslims were 0.6 per cent which has gone up to 5 per cent in 2014. The
number of followers of Roman Catholic remained the same. New generation in Britain is going away
from Islam. According to data provided by British government, number of Muslims in the country is
increasing very fast. The number of Christians decreased by 11 between 2001 and 2011 as earlier their
population was 30 lakh that has come down to 28 lakhs. In the meantime Muslim population increased
by 80 per cent. Muslims were 51 lakh in 2001 and have gone up to 72 lakhs. Islam is the second biggest
religion in Britain while Hindus are third biggest religion with 8.17 lakh. Sikhs are 4 lakh, Baudh 2.75
lakhs and Jews 2.5 lakhs. By 2010 Christians were 72 per cent and have come down to 59 per cent,
Muslims were 3 per cent of the total population had gone up to 5 per cent. Muslim leaders are saying
that these data are not reliable. The government is deliberately showing Muslims less and Muslims are
at least 12 per cent of the total population of the country. There are several cities where Muslims are in a
majority. Muslims are 40 per cent in East London. As per the government source, Islam is growing very
fast and every year over 5000 people become Muslim in which 70 per cent are women. Around 2,5 lakh
Christians converted to Islam in a decade of them 70 per cent are Africans. As per a survey by Swansi
University, people in Britain are fed up with liquor and drugs therefore they are accepting Islam.
Muslim organizations are spreading Islam in the country with full dedication and zeal.

10 imams deported from France for spreading terrorism
Roznama Rashtriya Sahara on July 1 reported that the French government expelled 10 Imams from the
country for spreading hatred and terrorism. French External affairs minister Barnad Karzibo said that
the government would continue war against terrorism and no soft stand would be taken against
anyone. This is to recall that recently a Jihadi terrorist beheaded a person after that French government
was alleged to be soft on terrorists. The French foreign minister said that 40 Imams had been expelled
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 15
from the country since 2012 for spreading terrorism. 20 matters are still under consideration. He said
that around 100 mosques have been locked that have been spreading jihad. He said that such people
who are using mosque for spreading hatred against other religions they would be prosecuted. He said
that the person Yaseen Salani who killed a senior official of a gas company of the US, he was trained at
ISIS training camps. This is to recall that there are 50 lakh Muslims in France and there are around 2500
registered mosque in the country.
III
Chinese restaurant attacked in Turkey
Roznama Rashtriya Sahara (July 1) reported that some Turkish youths attacked a Chinese restaurant
protesting atrocities committed against Muslims in China. Interesting thing is that this Chinese
restaurant does not belong to any Chinese rather belongs to a Turkish Cha Jiyan Yagor. Some of his
employees are definitely Chinese Muslims. According to local Dainik Hurriyat, the owner of the
Chinese restaurant said that there were a few Chinese customers. It did not serve liquor still Islamic
Jihadies attacked restaurant. The name of the Restaurant is Happy China. This is to recall Algore
Muslims are being harassed by the Chinese government and this was published in Turkish media.
After this Turkish government complained that why Chinese government is deliberately harassing
Muslims in the country. Chinese foreign minister called it interference into the internal matters of
China. According to the newspapers, the Chinese government banned keeping Roja, keeping beards
and donning burkha to Muslim women. Around 200 Algore Muslims escaped China via Thailand to
reach Turkey. Though they live in China but their ancestors were Turks and speak Turkish language.
Turkey is being pressurized that they should be given Turkish citizenship. They should not be
deported to China.

Who is behind ISIS?
Dawat on July 4 wrote special editorial claiming that structure of Islamic State of Iraq and Syria was
built by enemy of Islam. Its chief Al Baghdadi was trained well in advance before giving him such
responsibility. Youths of middle-east and the entire world thought that this was the real Islamic group
that wanted to establish Caliphate therefore people started joining their Army. This fake Caliph has the
support of riches of the Gulf countries. The US distributes arms and ammunitions purchased by these
Gulf countries to soldiers of Islamic Caliphate to kill their Muslim brothers. They are destroying
ancient remains of Islam. On the other side supporters of this so called Caliphate are telling the world
that Islamic state has come. Islamic Caliphate is being established. Stop it else there will be disturbance
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 16
across the world. Life will become difficult, women will be enslaved. Shrines of non-Muslims will be
destroyed. Now, the same forces are celebrating anniversary of the ISIS. One such comment was
published in Times of India on June 30 with the headline – First anniversary of new Caliphate. Now,
this terrorist wolf reaches Indian subcontinent. This organization has all the evils that can be done
against humanity. From selling women to black-marketing of crude oil, it is doing everything but it is
not known who is buying it. However, without the US and United Nations no one can sell even a drop
of oil. Flag of this organization has the logo of Hajrat Mohammad Saheb. It is the same logo that was the
seal of Hajrat Mohammad Saheb. It is also being claimed that ISIS was spreading its wings in Jammu
and Kashmir. Jamate Islami claimed that in the name of Caliphate enemy of Islam get towers in New
York attacked. Fake Osama bin Laden is killed in Abotabad and fake Caliphate is organized in middle-
east. This is an attempt to prove that everything is true. They spread this that on June 28 attacks were
made by Islamic group in Kuwait, Tunisia and France. They are capable of digesting false information.
But what happened to Muslims that they too started believing that ISIS exists. There are two kinds of
Muslims in this regard one that believes ISIS exists and working for Islam. The other group considers it
bunch of misguided people and gives clarification for their misdeeds. However, both these are
incorrect. This is a new game plan of the US and its associates. Their purpose is to capture natural
resources across the world and not allow people to move towards Islamic ideology. Initially the
government of India has been saying that there is no well wisher of ISIS but now suddenly agencies
realized to take advantage of the propaganda and tell people that there are people in the country
helping ISIS. There is nothing to say to emotional Muslims but those have reasonable thinking must
understand what is going to happen.

Tunisia decides to close down 80 mosques
Urdu Times on June 28 reported that after attack on two hotels by New Caliphate 30 mosques have
been shut. In this attack 40 people were killed in an attack by suicide bomber Abbu al Takir Adani. He is
soldier of Caliphate so he attacked enemy of Islam. Dead people include British, French and German.
According to the government sources, before bombing terrorists indiscriminately fired from AK96.
Tunisia is considered to be a secular nation in the Arabic world. This country is famous for its beautiful
beaches. Prime Minister Habib Essid said that mosques have become den for Islamic jihadies therefore
they must be closed.
Special report on West Asia

India criticized for not supporting Palestine in
United Nations
According to Munsif (July 5, 2015), in a major turnaround from its earlier foreign policy on Palestine,
India refused to support a proposal against Israel in a meeting of Human Right Commission and
remained indifferent during voting. This proposal was against Israeli attack on Ghaza in 2014.
Proposal of the commission was supported by 41 members out of 47 and only the US opposed it.
According to the newspaper, recently when Israeli defence minister Moshe Yaolone visited India. He
spoke to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and foreign minister Sushma Swaraj. It is said that under
pressure from the Israel, India did not support the move and remained indifferent. Relations between
India and Israel improved with Narendra Modi coming to power. Modi is expected to visit Israel
soon.
Munsif on July 7 criticized the Indian government in its editorial. The newspaper said that last year
when Israel bombarded Ghaza it was opposed across the world. Israeli products were boycotted by
some of the European countries while the Indian government kept silent. India had been the biggest
supporter of Palestine so far. It was the only non-Arabic nation that supported Palestine. But after
Modi came to power, India sat in the lap of Israel. India is buying arms and ammunitions from Israel.
There had been billions of dollars pact in the agriculture sector. India and Israel stuck $500 million
missile deal and both the countries are engaged in providing intelligence information to each other.
With the BJP coming to power the possibility is more that India will go with Israel leaving Arabs aside.
Voting decision of India in United Nations confirmed the change in policy of India. Israeli media
welcomed the decision of India and termed it a success story of Israel. Now, it is clear that India
deviated from its policy of supporting suppressed and echoing the voice with supper power like
America. The new policy of the government will have impact on Muslims. Narendra Modi must
reconsider his new policy on Israel.
Urdu Times on July 6 published a news report alleging that there was a major policy change by the
Modi government and for the first time India did not vote for Palestine. This makes it clear that India
joined hands with Israel leaving Arabs in lurch. The newspaper wrote in its editorial that India had
changed its 66-year-old pro-Palestine policy and openly supporting Israel. The newspaper wrote that
in Human Right Conference in Switzerland, a sensor motion was passed against Israel but Indian
representatives at United Nations remained in different instead of supporting it which in a sense was
opposition to the move. The newspaper wrote that India had been opposing Israel but now Narendra
Modi was in power so relation might have more tilted towards Israel. It was on instructions of the Modi
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 17
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 18
government that they did not participate in the voting. The proposal was related to a case in
International court. India is not a member of this court. The newspaper criticized that spokesperson of
the external affairs ministry Vikas Swaroop tried to misguide people by saying that there was no
change in policy towards Palestine. Abstaining from voting is just a technical matter. The newspaper
said that America voted against Palestine in Human Right Commission besides that three countries of
European Union including Britain and Germany and China, Russia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and
Maldives voted in favor of it. But the country under the leadership of Sangh Pariwar remained absent
and supported Kenya, Ethiopia, Prague and Macedonia. The newspaper said Kenya was such a nation
where hatred against Muslims is increasing. The newspaper complained that the way Vande Mataram
and Surya Namaskar were being made compulsory for Muslims in India, similar instructions for
Muslims in Kenya to participate in Church activities. The newspaper said that friendship with Israel
exposed the real face before people of the country.
Siyasat on July 6 criticized in its editorial that Narendra Modi government changed its foreign policy
after coming to power and joined hands with Israel leaving Arabs behind. However, India had been
supporting Palestine all these years. India always supported people of Palestine. The claim of the
government is wrong that there is no change in the policy of the country. This claim of the government
is absolutely false rather this decision has exposed the face of Modi government. Everything is being
done for the friendship of Israel. India wanted friendship with Israel at any cost. Diplomatic relations
with both the countries were set up in 1992 but India did not make distance from Palestine and also did
not shy away from voting against Israel. It is said that prime minister of Israel spoke to Prime Minister
Narendra Modi over phone for India not to support the resolution. India changed its policy on
Palestine under pressure from Israel. India failed to understand that 41 countries voted against Israel.
Atrocities committed by Israel in Ghaza were supported by India like this. Result of India's this policy
would be losing friendship with Arabic nations and that would impact their trade relations. It appears
that India is not bothered with its relations with Arabic nations. It is also clear that India has now
become a nation that follows America and Israel. The decision of the government clearly indicates its
anti-Muslim policy.
II
Saudi Arab's biggest enemy Iran
Dawat in its editorial on June 10 wrote that online newspaper in English, Arabic, French and Chinese
languages The Times of Israel reported that more than half Saudi citizens consider Iran the biggest
enemy than Israel. This was the result of the survey done by an American university. As per survey 53
per cent citizen consider Iran the bigger enemy than Israel while 22 per cent consider ISIS as the biggest
enemy of Saudi Arabia. Only 18 per cent consider Israel the biggest enemy. The newspaper expresses
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 19
astonishment that Saudi Arabia and other countries are inching closure to Israel and adopting anti-Iran
policy. These Arabic nations are doing trade and business. The newspaper said friendship of Arabic
nation with Israel was age old. According to Global research report, al Qaida, Saudi Arabia and Israel
are very close to each other. An al Qaida leader Jakaria Mosavi told New York Times that whether
Lebanon or Suria, Iraq or any other Sunni nation on all fronts Saudi Arabia and Israel are supporting
Muslim Militia because their interest are associated with them. These countries wanted to diminish
growing influence of Iran. They consider Iran a big threat. The same global research in another report
called relation between Saudi Arabia and Israel as an unholy alliance. It said that Iran becoming
nuclear power was neither liked by Israel nor Saudi Arabia. So they opened a joint front against it.
Israel and Arabic nations are worried about the changing policy of the US towards Iran. At present war
is continuing in countries like Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen and other countries. In this war one can
find supporters of Iran on the one side and supporters of Saudi Arabia and Israel on the other.
According to a report of Gulf Blog (Arab World Relations with Israel, 24 August, 2009), there are 22
members in Arab League and it announced complete boycotting Israel in 1948. They decided not to buy
any good from Israel. No business relation would be set up with any Israeli company. Any country of
the Arab League found having any relations with Israel will be blacklisted. But offices boycotting Israel
were closed in 2006 and all these were done under pressure from the US. In 1994 an office in Morocco
was set up and after that business relations were set up between both the countries. Next year Jordon
opened a trade mission in Israel and the same year Qatar also open a trade mission in Israel. Then Doha
also answered by opening a trade mission. Saudi Arabia also ended boycotting Israeli goods. Tunisia
also established indirect trade relations with Israel. On the other hand no one can deny Iran supporting
Syria. Iran is increasing its influence on Bahrin, Yeman and other Gulf Countries. Supporters of Lebnon
are also present and who does not know their differences with Turkey and Pakistan. Iran is openly
supporting rebels in the war against Sunni nations.

1.5 crore Muslims visit Kaba
According to Urdu Times (July 8), during two weeks of Ranadan month 1.5 crore people from across
the world visited Kaba. Around 6 lakh vehicle was used to transport people doing Umra. Around 73
lakh people reached Saudi Arabia through planes.
Hindustan Express (July 5, 2015), expansion of the holiest place of Muslims is continuing and expected
to be complete by 2020. After the completion of this project around 50 lakh Muslims would be able to
offer Namaj in one go. Due to construction work continuing in Kaba, there has been a 20 per cent cut
into the Haj pilgrims. Turkey rulers destroyed several historical buildings near Kaba so that Haj
pilgrims did not have any problem in doing parikrama. Several hotels and residential spaces for hajies
India Policy Foundation q July 16 - 31, 2015 q 20
are being built. A new project called Bab Abdulla has also been initiated which is related to former
emperor of Saudi Arabia Late Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz. Entire Kaba is being made air-conditioned.
But how much money is being spent by Saudi Arabia government on expansion of Kaba, there is a
complete silence over it. Spokesperson of the Saudi Arabia government said that there was no dearth of
money for this work.
Munsif on June 20 reported that with the expansion of Kaba almost double pilgrims would be able to
do parikrama of Kaba. Earlier around 53,000 hajies were able to do parikrama in an hour that has gone
over to 107000 in an hour. According to director of this project Mohammad Samikari, parikrama path
has been widened from 25 metres to 50 metres. Number of pillars on the parikrama path too has been
reduced. Ground floor is also open and special provisions have been made to provide holy Aabe jam
jam water so Hajies can take holy water twice in amount to their homes.
