Jamiatul-Ulema vis-à-vis Vande Matram
Thursday, November 05, 2009 05:06:51 PM,
Dr.
Mustafa Kamal Sherwani |
Lucknow:
Let me clarify at the very outset three important issues
related to ‘Vande Matram’ controversy, which is raised at a time
when it was not at all being discussed.
Firstly that this song is completely
Un-Islamic, secondly that Jamiatul-Ulema has always been the stooge
of Congress, and thirdly the sound health of ‘Hindutwa forces’ is a
pre-requisite condition for the so-called secular parties to entice
Muslim community on emotional issues, so that it may throw its
legitimate demands into oblivion.
The stronger the Hindutwa forces, the
greater prospects for Congress and other so-called secular outfits
to capture Muslims through the false slogans of ‘secularism’.
If our memory is not too weak, we may
recollect that a few years back the then H.R.D. Minister Mr. Arjun
Singh was the person who declared that the centenary of ‘Vande
Matram’ would be celebrated with its singing in all institutions.
As expected, the Muslims reacted
aggressively, giving an opportunity to Hindutwa forces to spew venom
against the community. Arjun Singh later on withdrew his circular,
and emerged as secular figure in the eyes of Muslims. The purpose
was served, i.e. to divert the community’s attention from the basic
issues of ‘give and take’.
This time again, as the Muslims are
showing tilt towards Congress, but with a rider of their demands,
like the implementation of Sacher Committee report, which it cannot
concede for the fear of losing Hindu support, the safest via media
before it is to raise some emotional issue by which to reinvigorate
the degenerating health of ‘Hindutwa forces’. Using its old faithful
stooges, it has succeeded to a considerable extent.
The so-called Deoband ‘Fatwa’ against
Vande Matram has activated the dying cells of B.J.P. The unholy
nexus between ‘Hindutwa forces and the ‘fictitious secularism’ is
the most effective instrument since independence to deceive Muslims,
and the hypocrites with the community are always used as the tool in
that mechanism.
