    • Agencies Tags : Wedding of Muslim couple, Hindu rites illegal Posted: Monday , Jun 01, 2009 at 1553 hrs Muzaffarnagar:
    Mass Marriage
    Wedding of a Muslim couple solemnised as per Hindu rites during a mass marriage is null and void.

    Wedding of a Muslim couple solemnised as per Hindu rites during a mass marriage is null and void and against the Islamic law, leading Islamic seminary Darul-Uloom Deoband has said.

    The ruling came following protests over a Muslim couple-- Akbal Ali and Trabunnisa -- taking part in a mass marriage programme organised by an NGO in Gorakhpur district, seminary officials said.

    Since they were the only Muslim couple among a group of 27, the organisers failed to make arrangements for a 'nikah' ceremony and they tied the knot as per Hindu rituals.

    "Marriage of a Muslim couple is illegal if there is no Nikah ceremony. Islam does not permit such a marriage," Deputy in-charge of the Deoband Fatwa Department Mufti Ahsan Kasmi said.

    Another cleric from the seminary Maulana M Sufiyana also said that such marriages are against the Shariat.

    Marriage is a marriageBy: Hanesh Abdullah | 10-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward After marriage, it is same. I do not think Hindus and Muslims do the same. It is like after death, we all are same. So why bother. Enjoy after marriage, hell with Imams and Mullahs.

    To Mr. Vasoo Karmulkar with due regards.By: Naim Naqvi | 05-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward Arun Shourie is a confused intellectual who has become a liability for BJP. So, stop referring him. Yes Indian is my nationality and I am proud of it. I care too hoots what the fanatical fringes of majority think of me. Majority of my Hindu brothers are logical, non-communal, rational and tolerant and I love and respect them. Yes Islam is my identity and I am equally proud of that. You are mis-informed or deliberately distorting the facts. There is no such Fatwa from Prophet Mohd (P.B.U.H.) which proscribes a Muslim to live in a state which is not ruled by Muslims. "Hobsons choice of Muslim living in India." What are you referring ? India was carved out into two states by Mr. Jinnah, Britishers and I.N.C. There were three parties involved and each had accorded its consent. Please don't blame one party alone. Do you know that people of Kashmir were fighting against their despotic ruler long before the independence of India. It is a different story. Learn to forgive and forget.
    Why are they poking their noses ?By: Ziya Akhtar | 05-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward I wonder why these guys are making an issue out of a personal choice of a man and a woman. If they both were ok with a decision I don't see a reason why Muslims are getting agitated. We live in a democracy live and LET LIVE..PEACEFULLY
    Wedding of Muslim couple with Hindu rite illegalBy: Vasoo Kamulkar | 05-Jun-2009 Reply | Forward Dear Azad, Thank you for reminding that the Muslims living in India are first Muslims and then Indians. The nationalist Hindus who have read and understood Arun Shourie (The World of Fatwa and The Indian Controversies) have no doubt about it whatsoever. It is only ‘Amar-Antulay-Antonia’ and their phoney secularists have us believe otherwise. Thank you once again. We know that as per the commandment of your prophet (PBH), it is kufra for the devout Muslims to live or settle in a Kafir country like India. As it is emasculating for all Muslims –wherever they might be- to turn HINDUSTHAN into dar–ul–Islam, it remains only a Hobson’s choice for the Muslims illegally living in India since August 1947 to quit na-pak Hindusthan and take refuge in Swat land or Bangladesh. They will not need any visas. Do take all Muslims- communalists, terrorists, secularists’ et al. Count in Samajvadees, Abu and Shabana Azmi . It would also be incumbent upon Muslims in Kashmir and POK to vacate India
