Muslims in more pressing times than 1857, 1947: AIMPLB cleric

LUCKNOW: All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) general secretary Maulana Khalid Saifullah Rahmani said on Sunday that Muslims today were in a more pressing situation than 1857 and 1947.

In a video message addressing the community, he asked Muslims not to fall prey to communal forces who are trying to engulf the country in hate and inciting Muslims to react and engage in strife.

“We are all well aware that Muslims today are going through a more difficult period with respect to their religion and religious freedom than 1857 -- the first war of independence and 1947 -- the Indian independence,” said Maulana Rahmani.
