Malegaon:
Not any misconception. There are in
fact deliberate and consistent efforts all over the world
including India to defame Islam and Muslims, and link them to
violence and terrorism, scholars said during the Jamiat Ahle
Hadees conference held in Malegaon Sunday.
"Islam means SALAM... Peace. Not just
the name, Islam is actually all about peace and harmony",
Secretary General of Jamiat Ahle Hadees Hind, Asghar Ali Imam
Mehdi said while delivering the presidential address at the
day-long conference titled 'Itteba-e-Sunnat Conference'
organised by Jamiat Ahle Hadees Maharashtra at SM Khaleel High
School ground.
"Islam has equated killing of one
innocent person with the killing of the entire humanity. Along
with drawing this parallel, it strictly refrains its followers
from indulging in any kind of violence", he said.
"Against this clear rule, the
madness and the killings we are witnessing today by the terrorists
are just impossible by any true Muslim", he said even as hundreds
of delegates coming from different parts of Maharashtra and
neighboring states nodded in agreement.
"It is the Islam which had given the
lessons of peace and harmony to the world which otherwise was full
of violence and disturbance", he said.
Earlier, highlighting the importance
of unity and discipline in an organisation, Muqueem Faizee, head
of Islamic studies at Iqra International School Mumbai said that
there were instances showing differences among the people during
the life of Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) and also after
his death. "But never ever he or his companions allowed these
differences to be used as a tool to create trouble", he said.
"The life of the prophet is the best
example for everyone of us to follow", he said urging the
gathering to find solutions of their problems in the teachings of
the prophet.
Throwing light on the
responsibilities of a couple after marriage, Ab Haseeb Madani said
that Islam had given clear guidelines for a married life and also
the responsibilities of a husband and a wife, towards each other.
About, marrying more than once, he
said that the permission had been granted but it was not new in
Arab or other parts of the world.
Stating that marrying more than once
has always been a practice, he said, "Even in ancient India ad
now, we see people having more than one wife. The fact is that Islam has
restricted it to a
limit by allowing to marry four wives."
"Moreover", he said, "This
permission is also granted with a strict instruction. If a person
cannot do justice with more than one wife, he should refrain from
marrying more than one wife."
On the occasion, the website of Akhbar-e-Aslaf
- www.akhbareaslaf.com
was inaugurated by Jamiat Ahle
Hadees Maharashtra president Dr Saeed Ah Faizee. Launched sixteen
years back, Akhbare Aslaf is the fortnightly newspaper of the
Jamiat.
The confernce was broadcast live on internet and local TV channels.
