Lately, Nupur Sharma, 37-year-old firebrand, superstar BJP spokesperson, has kicked up such a controversy as to cause the Muslim world to feel a big jolt, particularly in the Middle East region, so much so that some of the Arab world Muslim nations have withdrawn from or suspended trade and commerce relationships with India.

By ANI NEW DELHI: Jamaat Ulama-e-Hind president Suhaib Qasmi on Sunday said that former Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Nupur Sharma, who allegedly made controversial remarks on Prophet Muhammad, should be forgiven as per Islam. He added that the organisation of Muslim scholars disagreed with the nationwide protests in wake of her remarks. Jamaat Ulama-e-Hind called a press conference in Delhi today over Sharma's remarks and nationwide protests after Friday prayers. Qasmi said, "Islam says Nupur Sharma should be forgiven. We disagree with the protest that started across the country after Friday prayers against Nupur Sharma and her derogatory remarks." Apart from this, Jamaat Ulama-e-Hind also welcomed the decision of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to suspend Sharma. "We are welcoming the decision of the law because India is the law of the land and we are not going to take the law into our hands. The law does not allow to come on the road and break the rule," Qasmi said at the press conference. Jamaat Ulama-e-Hind has decided to issue a 'fatwa' through which it will urge people not to support any kind of violence in connection with Nupur Sharma and her remarks. "The fatwa will come against Asaduddin Owaisi and Mohammad Madani," the Jamaat said.
