AAP’s Sanjay Singh tries to show Islamists true Islam, will get schooled

Sanjay Singh of the Aam Aadmi Party on Friday tried to show ‘true Islam’ to Sharjeel Usmani after the Newslaundry columnist celebrated the loss of life of Aaj Tak information anchor Rohit Sardana. He recounted a narrative of how the prophet of Islam had responded with kindness to a lady who had earlier thrown rubbish at him.
In his response, Sanjay Singh tried onerous to faux that he knew and understood Islam higher than the Islamic fundamentalists, going overboard with the honorifics used for the prophet. It is tough to know exactly what he was trying to obtain together with his remark other than affirming his uber-secular credentials however the responses he obtained confirmed what frequent sense would have us imagine.

“Do not try to teach Islamic fundamentalists the true meaning of Islam. Chances are, they are far more knowledgeable on the matter than you are.” One Abdul Raziq shot again at Singh over his feedback. He mentioned that there isn’t a point out of an incident such because the one cited by Sanjay Singh and the story was merely a figment of creativeness.
Raziq rebuked Singh and mentioned that he ought to research the scriptures first earlier than issuing sermons. “Muslims do not need any certificate from you,” mentioned Raziq. The reply would certainly classify as a ‘befitting reply’ in some Islamist media.
The interplay, nonetheless, does carry an essential lesson for liberals. The overwhelming chances are high that Islamic fundamentalists are a lot better versed with Islamic scriptures than liberals themselves. Therefore, it is just frequent sense that one refrains from preaching sermons to the religious.
ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had a PhD diploma in Islamic research and he’s solely only one instance. We have quite a few examples of Maulanas and Maulvis in India which preach hatred on a regular basis. Do liberals plan to show Saudi Arabia ‘true Islam’? Or perhaps, Pakistan or Iran? It is weird to imagine that they know extra about Islam than the Islamic states themselves.
Weirdly sufficient, liberals look like of the opinion that each one religions preach liberalism. Whatever be the principle liberal political situation of the time, they’ll declare that each one religions help that place. Be it abortion, homosexuality or feminism, in line with liberals, the true message of all religions is all the time one way or the other the one liberals need it to be.
And because it so occurs, even reputed Islamic students have mentioned that the story doesn’t have any foundation in actuality.

It is nicely previous time for liberals to get up and odor the espresso. The imaginative and prescient of Islam that they’ve of their head is starkly totally different from the one which exists in actuality. And regardless of their quite a few incantations of the kind that Sanjay Singh made, the actual fact stays that there should not sufficient takers of it among the many Muslim group. Even so, it is just to be anticipated that the AAP chief is not going to be taught the lesson that he ought to from the interplay.
It can be to be famous right here that Islamists on social media, whereas justifying the celebrations over Sardana’s loss of life, slammed liberals as nicely. According to them, liberals ought to have been okay with them celebrating the loss of life of somebody they accuse of being a ‘genocide enabler’.
All this time, liberals have made quite a few overtures to Islamists, helped mainstream them, compromised on liberal rules with a view to construct an alliance with them and it was solely the celebration of somebody’s loss of life did liberals draw the road.
And but, the quick response from their Islamist allies was not understanding and compromise however robust rebuke. It tells one all the pieces they should know concerning the nexus of Islamists and liberals and the ability steadiness that exists between the 2.
