Clean chit to Zakir Naik, Maharashtra SID
In a major relief for Islamic preacher Dr Zakir Naik and his millions of followers the Maharashtra State Intelligence Department (SID) has given a clean chit to the televangelist and has decided not to arrest him on his arrival at Mumbai.
The SID found no reason to register a case against the Islamic preacher for now. Zakir Naik, who cancelled his plan to return to India on Monday, has been given clean chit by SID, that is handling the investigation of the Zakir Naik case ordered by the Maharashtra government. The SID sources added that Zakir Naik will not and cannot be arrested on his return to India based on the evidence against him.
The SID, after watching and listening hundreds of YouTube videos and speeches given by the controversial preacher Zakir Naik in and out of India, reached to the conclusion that no case can be made out against him for now, except the charge of hurting religious sentiments. The SID also investigated the evidences collected from the other intelligence teams in various states and found no direct or indirect link between Zakir Naik and terrorists.
“There is no case to be made out against the English-speaking preacher, except maybe the possible charge of hurting religious sentiments, but even that cannot be established from his speeches. We are tracking his movements and only if he speaks out of turn, can we ‘pin’ him down on a charge. For now, we are closely monitoring him,” a senior police official was quoted as saying by the The Hindu.
The report also said that the SID officers found no strong evidence to link Zakir Naik to terror-related activities. The officials also said that Naik’s past controversial statements Taliban, Osama bin Laden and ISIS do not result in any direct or indirect charges against him. Zakir Naik’s speeches are believed to have inspired some of the Bangladeshi militants, who killed 22 people, mostly foreigners, at an upscale restaurant in Dhaka on July 1. http://muslimmirror.com/eng/clean-chit-to-zakir-naik-maharashtra-sid-wont-arrest-the-islamic-preacher/
Dr.Zakir Naik is not liked by Hindu extremist groups who consider him as a threat to their faith, quoting Hindu holy scriptures, converting Hindus openly with the consent of people. Many traditional Muslim Mullah also dislike him as he is threat to their restricted traditional percepts. The Christians clergy becomes speechless in front of him when he quotes Bible to disprove their arguments. However he is worldwide popular liked by millions due to his logical modern approach.
"O you who believe, if a wicked person brings any news to you, you shall first investigate, lest you commit injustice towards some people, out of ignorance, then become sorry and remorseful for what you have done."(Quran;49:6)
Here’s full statement by Dr.Zakir Naik:
According to me, the media is the most important weapon in the world. It can convert a hero into villain or even a villain into a hero. I'm shocked at the media trial on me regarding the recent terrorist attack that took place in Dhaka Bangladesh on 1st July 2016. Most of the clips shown on the television of myself are either out of context, half statements or doctored. So are my statements in the print media.
I would have loved to give interviews whether for television channels or for the print media, but I fear that most of them will not publish it unedited or without twisting it. I came to this conclusion after I had given a few interviews, most of which were unfortunately mutilated and mis-utilised to serve the vested agenda of the channel or the newspaper.
If time permits, God willing, in the next few days I will give replies to some of the major allegations on video and give it to the media as well as put it up on social media as well as other public platforms so that the original answers are also available if the media misutilises it.
So far not a single official Indian government agency has contacted me for any clarification regarding this issue. It would be my pleasure to cooperate with any official Indian government investigation agency for any information they might require from me.
In conclusion, I repeat what I have always maintained - I DO NOT SUPPORT TERRORISM OR VIOLENCE in any form whatsoever. I have never supported any terrorist organisations and have mentioned this over and over again in thousands of my public talks worldwide. I STRONGLY CONDEMN anyone taking my statements out of context and using it for VIOLENCE OF ANY FORM."
Yours sincerely,
Dr Zakir Naik

Islamic preacher Zakir Naik has sought support from the Muslim community against what he called was a “media trial” over allegedly provocative statements promoting militant views that have triggered calls for his arrest.
Introducing a new Twitter handle -- @drzakirofficial – the Mumbai-based preacher also appealed to people around the world to “eliminate terrorism from our midst”.
Naik has come under the scanner of the Indian government after reports emerged that two among a group of terrorists who killed 20 people in a posh Dhaka café last week were allegedly inspired by his speeches.
“I, Dr Zakir Naik, Call upon all my Muslim Brothers & Sisters to Support me against the “Media Trials” and Let Justice Prevail (sic),” Naik tweeted.
Naik, 51, founder of the Mumbai-based Islamic Research Foundation (IRF), also introduced his new Twitter handle on his Facebook page. Within an hour of Naik’s thousands of likes. He is also the founder of Peace TV Bangla and Peace TV Urdu.

Why Dr.Zakir Naik is Criticised & by Whom?
Dr.Zakir Naik is not liked by:
1) Hindu extremist groups who consider him as a threat to their faith, converting Hindus openly with consent of people.
2) Extremist politicians and their supporters who are criticised by Dr.Zakir Naik for atrocities committed against Muslims. [killing of Muslims in Gujarat (Narindra Modi was CM), demolition of Babri Masjid and instigating communal riots].
3) Many traditional Muslim Mullah also dislike him as he is threat to their restricted traditional percepts.
4) The Christians clergy becomes speechless in front of him when he quotes Bible to disprove their arguments.
He is worldwide popular, liked by millions due to his logical modern approach. Why people like him despite not being 100% in agreement with him? Here are some reasons:
1) He gives references from Holy Texts to support his arguments, any one can check back and draw conclusions, even if one does not agree with his interpretation.
He is worldwide popular, liked by millions due to his logical modern approach. Why people like him despite not being 100% in agreement with him? Here are some reasons:
1) He gives references from Holy Texts to support his arguments, any one can check back and draw conclusions, even if one does not agree with his interpretation.
2) He does not give pessimistic, docile, submissive percepts. He is realistic which may pinch those opposed to Islam. If Muslim lands are being occupied, they are under oppression like Palestine, Afghanistan, Kashmir etc, should they keep on getting killed by occupation forces or resist? Even if one is not religious what does the commonsense says?
4) His approach/ views on many subjects is different to the traditional [Muqalideen, blind followers of 4 Sunni Imams]. For example:
b) Traditional Muslim Ulema consider Western dress as Haram or Makrooh but Dr.Zakir Naik is dressed up in Western Suit, necktie and speaks in English.
c) According too Dr. Zakir, Apostasy, is not punishable with death under normal circumstances, while traditionalists think it is punishable with death. The Terrorist Takfiri use this traditional view to kill innocent Muslims.
d) According too Dr. Zakir, Muslims can touch Quran even without ablution (Wadhu) while traditional Muslim scholars think it is forbidden. Hence deprive Muslims to frequently approach/read Quran. Dr. Zakir, has made Quran as household frequently approachable Holy Book not to be kept away wrapped up in almirah.
e) Dr. Zakir, thinks that 911 was inside job, this view is shared by many Americans and there are websites. So its not a crime, to make him target to hate.
Dr.Zakir criticises George Bush and Tony Blair for deceit to attack Iraq and Muslim lands, the fact proved now and regretted by Blair. Whole Zionist lobby and mafia is after him.
Takfiri Taliban involved in terrorism and suicide bombing in Pakistan and Afghanistan, they are followers of Deoband school, should we close Deoband on terror charges?
No, Deoband is doing good job, it has renounced Terrorism by issuinng a Fatwa. If some people are misguided then Deoband cannot be blamed for their misdeeds. Similarly if some facebook fans of Dr.Zakir Naik indulge in terrorism, how can he be blamed without any direct involvement or evidence? Its absurd.
Its time for Muslims to rise up to meet the challenges of modern era by producing scholars of calibe to satisfy the intellectually aware youth. Suppression, state terrorism will not work. Violence breeds more violence. http://goo.gl/dUI0xX

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا كُونُوا قَوَّامِينَ لِلَّـهِ شُهَدَاءَ بِالْقِسْطِ ۖ وَلَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَآنُ قَوْمٍ عَلَىٰ أَلَّا تَعْدِلُوا ۚ اعْدِلُوا هُوَ أَقْرَبُ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ ۖ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّـهَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّـهَ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ ﴿٨﴾
Believers, be steadfast in the cause of God and bear witness with justice. Do not let your enmity for others turn you away from justice. Deal justly; that is nearer to being God-fearing. Fear God. God is aware of all that you do. (Quran;5:8)
(7) ऐ ईमान लेनेवालो! अल्लाह के लिए खूब उठनेवाले, इनसाफ़ की निगरानी करनेवाले बनो और ऐसा न हो कि किसी गिरोह की शत्रुता तुम्हें इस बात पर उभार दे कि तुम इनसाफ़ करना छोड़ दो। इनसाफ़ करो, यही धर्मपरायणता से अधिक निकट है। अल्लाह का डर रखो, निश्चय ही जो कुछ तुम करते हो, अल्लाह को उसकी ख़बर हैं (5:8)
முஃமின்களே! நியாயத்தை நிலை நாட்டுவதற்காக அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு நீங்கள் உறுதியான சாட்சியாக இருங்கள், எந்த ஒரு கூட்டத்தார் மீதும் நீங்கள் கொண்டுள்ள வெறுப்பு நீதி செய்யாமலிருக்க உங்களைத் தூண்ட வேண்டாம். நீதி செய்யுங்கள்;. இதுவே (தக்வாவுக்கு) - பயபக்திக்கு மிக நெருக்கமாகும்;. அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு அஞ்சுங்கள்; நிச்சயமாக அல்லாஹ் நீங்கள் செய்பவற்றை(யெல்லாம் நன்கு) அறிந்தவனாக இருக்கின்றான். (5:8)
راستی اور انصاف کے ساتھ گواہی دینے والے بن جاؤ، کسی قوم کی عداوت تمہیں خلاف عدل پر آماده نہ کردے،
"O you who believe, if a wicked person brings any news to you, you shall first investigate, lest you commit injustice towards some people, out of ignorance, then become sorry and remorseful for what you have done."(Quran;49:6)
ऐ लोगों, जो ईमान लाए हो! यदि कोई अवज्ञाकारी तुम्हारे पास कोई ख़बर लेकर आए तो उसकी छानबीन कर लिया करो। कहीं ऐसा न हो कि तुम किसी गिरोह को अनजाने में तकलीफ़ और नुक़सान पहुँचा बैठो, फिर अपने किए पर पछताओ (49:6)

It is a compilation of lectures delivered by Muhammad Iqbal on Islamic philosophy; it was published in 1930. These lectures were delivered by Iqbal in Madras, Hyderabad, and Aligarh.
