'Jamath is striving to establish peace and order'

March 9, 2012

Uppinangady, March 9: The prophets of Allah had tried to establish peace and order in the society by freeing it from injustice, obscenity and abuse. Muslim community has the divine duty of carrying forward this responsibility. Jamate Islami Hind has been striving to continue the same mission over the last 65 years, said Mohammed Kunhi, state secretary of Jamathe Islami Hind.

Addressing a public meeting on the premises of Masjidul Huda in Nekkiladi, he said the Dashina Kannada wing of Jamath has been conducting a campaign on the topic 'For a better nation, for a better future' to introduce the activities of the organization to the people.

Mr. Kunhi said, Jamath had chalked out a manifesto for a healthy society bereft of any evils. “Reforming the community, propagation of religion and social service are the three core areas on which Jamath focuses its activities,” he said.

The programme began with the recitation of Quranic veses by Sadeed Pakkaladka. Jamath local unit president Amin Ahsan welcomed and proposed a vote of thanks.

‘Lingayat and Islam share common values’: Swamiji calls for unity and love between two faiths

Sri Taralabalu branch mutt pontiff, Panditaradhya Shivacharya Swamiji, highlighted the shared spiritual values between Lingayat and Islam, emphasizing the potential for unity and mutual understanding between the two faiths.

Speaking at a program on the Quran organized by Jamaat-e-Islami Hind at Ta Ra Su Rangamandir, Swamiji reflected on the common ground that exists between these spiritual traditions. He noted that while Lingayat and Islam are distinct religions, they share several profound principles.

Swamiji explained that the Lingayat tradition advocates for the worship of one supreme God through Istalinga puja, and similarly, Islam, as taught by Prophet Muhammad, emphasizes the oneness of God and discourages idol worship, urging believers to connect solely with Allah.

He further remarked that throughout history, many have promoted the belief in one God, known by many names, yet societal barriers still persist.

Swamiji called for the dismantling of these barriers, urging communities to foster love, mutual respect, and understanding. He encouraged all rational thinkers to promote harmony by breaking down walls of division and embracing one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
