TIL Desk/National/Hyderabad/ Flaying those who shaved off the beard of a young Muslim man, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen president Asaduddin Owaisi on Monday said ‘those indulging in such tyranny and injustice’ will be brought into the fold of Islam and made to keep a beard.
His comments drew a sharp reaction Bharatiya Janata Party MLA from Telangana T Raja Singh Lodh, who said that any Muslim sporting a beard would be viewed with suspicion as long as ‘Jihadi’ Muslims are not boycotted.
Owaisi made the remarks at a public meeting in Hyderabad, where he referred to the reported incident of a Muslim man’s beard being shaved off at Gurugram and urged youth from the community not to fear such incidents.
“If someone is fearing that our Muslim brother’s beard was shaved off… No need to worry. I am telling you, who shaved off the beard, I am telling your father… that you cut, not beard, but throat, we will remain Muslim… It is our constitutional right,” he said.
“Those indulging in tyranny and injustice, we will not stop keeping a beard even if it is shaved off. We will keep even a long beard. We will keep such a long beard that with our truthfulness, we will bring you into Islam (daman e Islam). We will bring you and make you keep beard.
