Irrfan Khan questions islamic practices and terrorism, controversy erupts

Actor Irrfan Khan, who is currently promoting his upcoming film ‘Madaari’, has questioned the way people are practising fasting and sacrifice in Islam. A controversy has erupted and muslim clerics have asked the actor to concentrate on his film career and not seek publicity.

“The meaning of Qurbani is to sacrifice something which is close to you instead of any goat or sheep which you just buy to sacrifice. Before sacrificing we should share a bond with it otherwise just killing of an animal will not serve the purpose”

“Nowadays we have lost the relevance behind such religious activities and perform these rituals without knowing the meaning behind them” Irrfan was quoted as saying by Deccan Herald.

“Rather than fasting during Ramzan, people should self-introspect… We Muslims have also made a mockery of Muharram. It is meant for mourning and what we do? Take out (tajiya) processions.”

Adding to his already controversial statement, the actor criticised Muslims for not speaking against terrorism.

“Why Muslims are silent against the issue of terrorism. People should also question the politicians over this issue” he said.

Meanwhile, Muslim clerics have questioned the timing of Irrfan’s comments and asked him not to involve himself in religious issues.

“It would be better if he concentrates on his film career and not make random statements about our religion. He is doing this just for the publicity of his upcoming movie” said Maulana Abdul Wahid Khatri, state secretary of Jamaat-e-Ulema-e-Hind.

Irrfan’s comments could snowball into yet another major controversy as the mainstream media has picked up the actor’s comments.

‘Madaari’ releases in theatres on July 15.

  • @nvs- why respect all religions bro? Why not neglect all religions & do better things in life like earning good money or good name or just simply enjoying life.

  • Here many nonbelievers crossing their limit, they don’t know what they are doing nor know what going to happen with them when they die. As I already explained what jihad is, and what Islam is. Even Hindu priest praising Islam. There are lots of pandit who praise my Islam and I have a great respect for them. One more thing in your deep heart you also know Islam is the only true religion in this world but you don’t want to accept because of your ego. Every human born as a muslim Every heart is a Muslim, every kidney is a Muslim, every eye is a Muslim. It is their cultural their family take them to wrong path, anyways About this articles hatred comments, I’m getting terribly angry while reading their comments. But chah kar bhi I can’t do anything. Waise bhi kichad pe pathad pekhne se hamara hi nuksan. In Istanbul article few comments of mine are still in awaiting moderation. I dunno why.

  • What you think is right is only right for you. It doesn’t mean what you think is right, is actuality right. Maybe others think wrong what you think right.
    What is right is right and what is wrong is wrong. Their stats don’t change because of our thoughts.
    Please do the things you think are right and please don’t ask other to call right what you think is right. because we are not always right!

  • Shut up Roshan and get lost what u know about Islam and Quran and Mohmmed (pbuh). Don’t talk single word about it if u don’t know anything Stay in ur limit. U can bark about any today’s Muslim be it me or any or any fellow member of indicine user because that is in ur blood to hate Muslim. None of any Muslim user has bashed Ramayana bhagwatgeeta, pothi puran or ur god ram, Krishna Shankar etc because Muslim respect every religion. Whoever true Muslim and followed Mohmmed (pbuh) footsteps will never says bad thing about other religion Even though they don’t accept as a god but never disrespect them. U find half of Muslim bad so it is because of religion islam and Quran. Tell me which religion don’t have bad people so it is because of their holy book or religion. If u urself read ur holy book with understanding would never bash islam and its book

    NAVIN : well said. Salute to ur comment.

    Who is this Irfan khan. Is he scholar, Sufi or mufti. Does he ever read Quran with its meaning?

  • @Rehaan Deep in my heart I only know that Islam is not a religion of peace and lot of innocent people are dying because of your religion. Whether those innocents are muslims or people belonging to other religions, it doesn’t matter.

    Who are you to say everyone is born muslim? Deep inside you too are a potential terrorist, because you could kill someone who doesn’t agree with you.

    You guys believe everyone and everything is muslim.. but when accepting every terrorist is also muslim you guys have a problem.

    Get the hell out of here.. you get terribly angry when someone doesn’t agree with you and that makes you dangerous.

  • Comment section of This article gave me headache! Not going to open the article again..
    Just want to tell everyone
    Let’s not be too rigid and conservative. We know what is good and what is wrong. So please do your work accordingly.

  • @Rehaan,why you’re forcing everyone to bash Muslims and Islam further?from where did you get the proof that every norm human is an Islamic/Muslim.can you give the proof of you’ll remain shut up.

    And if you don’t know and go and search history deep,you’ll find HINDU RELEGION I the most anv isn’t RELEGION on Earth.then both Islam and Christianity came into existence.

    So as per your logic I must say that EVERY HUMAN IS A BORN HINDU,but later some traitors showed the whole world wrong path by introducing Islam.

    And no doubt Islam is the 2nd most biggest Relegion in the worlddid you know how they become so?because Old Muslim cruel rulers were forcing people to convert into Islam otherwise massacred them to ashes their places,house.

    But HINDUS never forced anyone to convert them into HINDU with out their own will just like how Islam and Christianity during British times and even today in many places does.

    And I never Relegious freak instead I’m hating those people’s who are fighting against one other’s RELEGION.

    At least admit what blind belief That Islam posses as per Irrfan said or remainsilent but don’t try to hurt any other relegion to degrade your relegion even more.

    @navin,you’re atheist just like your perfaketionist as you over projected to that psychopath illogical movie pk ,where perfaketionist able to know everything after touching about feelings except RELEGION to create the over drama further against OUR HINDU RELEGION.but did you hypocrite ever bashed those chameleons raju and amir?no,right?because that’s a bhojpuri movie and rikshawalas must have to support that.

    And not only that when our beloved bhai supported yakub menon ,where were you at hand time psychopaths?you openly supported your criminal idol so insanely at that time now you’re taking against us.even when His own Father bashed him and suggested to delete the tweet and what can say about the recent ‘raped women’ controversy.don’t know upto extent you bhojpuris will degrade upto which extent.

    Even you bashed KING SRK for intolerance and said Him deshdrohi but after for the same incident you supported amir fully.

    How many time you’ll prove yourself the biggest leader of hypocrites.

    And you’re bashing my innocent friend Javed?He unnecessarily said about Hindu a little but later apologized.and when he bashed India can you show?????if can’t show them remain silent coward.

    But @navin,really believe me in hypocrisy,not a single man in the world can exceed the limit what you stand today.hate off to your learning behaves like so gentle who from the inner heart is a pshycopathetic double standard chameleon,rofl.

  • @indicine,kindly publish my most important 2:49 pm comment which doesn’t has a single filthy/abusive word and given to clarify most of the sound of others given in an independent way to express my feeling/opinion with out hatred towards anyone.so it’s my kind and humble request to you to please publish my most important and unabusive 2:49 pm comment and show it to all,for which I’ll be get grateful to you,thanks.

  • @SSS. U r absolutely right. @ navin d nalla. And others who us talking islam is d best religion, lemme confirm u that islam and its warlord mohammad are d worst thing happend on earth. Islam is just a copy of bible and jewish scriptures. Its d fact n u cant argue over that.

  • @roshan,he is the biggest chameleon ever found here.Whatever Muhammad We shouldn’t consider.But many good things which Islam teaches that must be followed because people have faith in that RELEGION too.instead of that We can’t fight with other as my RELEGION is best and then He’ll say no it’s My RELEGION is best.

    that’s why KING SRK’S MNIK is the best movie from which we can know many things about Islam.how during a scene when a useless fraud was advising wrong informations to some people to convert them into Islam.then KING SRK started to slam that fraud through the knowledge of his own way.

    And another movie from hollywood KingDom of Heaven—-the epic between Christianity and Islam in Jerusalem too teaches us about Islam ,when the victorious Islam KING Saladin spared mercy towards the Christianity who lost the battle.which generally Muslim rules never did and all then were barbaric.except Saladin I never found any Muslim Ruler to be that kind.He is the true Islamic.

    And who follows blind belief are simply wrong.what can we do as it’s all in people’s hand.

  • NOW YOU READ THE TRANSLATED VERSES FROM QURAN, AND SEE YOU DECIDE IT FOR YOURSELF, WHAT ISLAM IS.

    Muslims are insisted very directly to wage war and kill the people of other religions according to the below verses in Quran, and for those who dies or wins in this battle against the people of other religions there is a great reward waiting from Allah says not I but the HOLY HOLY Quran.

    Quran 9: 123

    O you believers of Allah! Fight the unbelievers near you and let them find harshness in you. And know that Allah is with the righteous.

    Quran 9: 5

    When the sacred months are over, slay the idol-worshippers, wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them and lie in ambush everywhere for them

    Quran 2:191

    And kill them wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah is worse than killing. And do not fight them at al-Masjid al- Haram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.

    quran 2:216

    Fighting is made mandatory for you, and it is an object of dislike to you; and it may be that you dislike a thing while it is good for you, and it may be that you love a thing while it is evil for you, and Allah knows, while you do not know

    Quran 3:151

    Soon shall we cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority: their abode will be the Fire: And evil is the home of the wrong-doers!

    Quran 4:95

    Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt, and those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their goods and their persons. Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at home). Unto all (in Faith) Hath Allah promised good: But those who strive and fight Hath He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by a special reward,-
    And this goes on……
