Muslim Cleric Who Slammed Mohammed Shami For Not Keeping Roza Targets Cricketer's Daughter For Playing Holi During Ramadan

A Muslim cleric (Maulana) slammed Indian Cricketer Mohammed Shami for not keeping Roza (Fasting) during Ramzan earlier this month and has now targeted his daughter for playing Holi. He termed the Holi celebrations of the pacer's daughter as "illegal" and "against Shariat."

All India Muslim Jamaat president Maulana Shahabuddin Razvi over Shami’s daughter’s Holi celebration, said, "She is a small girl. If she plays Holi without understanding (it), then it is not a crime. If she is sensible and still plays Holi, then it will be considered against Shariat.”

He further said, “I have appealed to Shami and his family members. Whatever is not in Shariat, do not let your children do it. Holi is a very big festival for Hindus but Muslims should avoid celebrating Holi. If someone celebrates Holi even after knowing Shariat, it is a crime.”

Maulana Shahabuddin Razvi said Shami had sinned for not fasting during Ramzan. He suggested that those who are unable to fast during Ramzan should fast after Ramzan ends.Open in app
