President Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind Maulana Arshad Madani meets the Ambassador of Saudi Arabia
New Delhi:: In the view of the statement of the Ministry of Islamic Affairs of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia against Tablighi Jamaat, President Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind Maulana Arshad Madani during a meeting with the Saudi Ambassador to India Saud Bin Mohammed Al-Sati today said that the statement of the Ministry of Islamic Affairs of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia regarding Tablighi Jamaat has become a cause of great concern for Muslims all over the world. Tablighi Jamaat is attached with Deobandi school of thought, so it is also a matter of concern for Dar-ul-Uloom Deoband and Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind.
We do not have a discussion with Kingdom of Saudi Arabia stand regarding Tablighi Jamaat in its country, and we have never talked about it in this regard. However, the allegation leveled by Islamic Affairs Ministry against Tablighi Jamaat at this time is very painful not only for Tablighi Jamaat but also for all Muslims and especially for those who belong to religion of Islam.
We wanted to convey our grievances and feelings to Minister of Islamic Affairs through the Honorable Ambassador of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and to inform him about the difficulties and worst consequences that could come to the Muslims as a result of his statement.
I am very glad that the Ambassador read my letter in a very good atmosphere, and discussed this subject and he has promised to give me the best cooperation in this regard. He also said that you should understand that this letter has reached the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, and from there I expect the answer to come as you expect.
I am very grateful to the Ambassador for his kindness and good manners and I am sure that he will be our best spokesman in sha Allah. And in sha Allah, good results will come out of our conversation and writing.
