Maulana sajid rashidi on nishikant dubey remarks: There is a ruckus on the statement of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Nishikant Dubey regarding the Supreme Court. They are being criticized everywhere, even the BJP has dismissed its statement. On the matter, Maulana Sajid Rashidi, president of All India Imam Association, said that such remarks come in response to the statements of leaders like Asaduddin Owaisi.

Speaking to news agency ANI, he said, “When the matter is going on in the Supreme Court, Asaduddin Owaisi should not make such rhetoric. Owaisi is saying that if he comes on the streets, is he not contempt of Supreme Court by saying so. Such rhetoric comes to the reaction of Owaisi’s statement.”

‘Should not comment on judiciary’

He also emphasized that the leaders should avoid such comments. Maulana said, “It is not so easy to comment on the judiciary. People of the ruling party should not speak on the judiciary in this way. Such a comment is very unfortunate. If the ruling party also talks like this, then what will the opposition say. The party’s graph goes down by making such comments without reason.”

‘Such comments will get away from BJP’

Maulana Sajid Rashidi also said, “Nishikant Dubey has no support base in his area but such a statement will harm the party. Nishikant Dubey keeps talking on Muslims on the day. Nishikant Dubey should be taken action on Nishikant Dubey. The Muslim of the country is watching the BJP today if such a comment will be made, then Muslims will go away from BJP.”

Meanwhile, AIMIM Chief Asaduddin Owaisi has also cleared that Muslims will continue to oppose it until this law is returned. In a special conversation with ABP News, he also opposed those who are claiming that the Parliament House is built on the land of Waqf.

Asaduddin Owaisi was questioned whether Gorakh was not doing business about Waqf? Unlawful claims were being made that the land around the Parliament is also of Waqf or the Kumbh fair in Prayagraj, in which 55 bighas of land is of Waqf. Such claims are also made.

What did Asaduddin Owaisi answer?

He said, “There are many crazy people in the world who have a mental hospital instead of living. Such crazy people who do not conscious about themselves keep on nonsense. I am just telling you that if the mosque in front of Parliament is removed, then the mosque will go away. I still stand on this. Even today, the sword is hanging on my neck.”

What did Owaisi say on the hearing of the Supreme Court?

AIMIM Chief said, “Mob lynching has not been banned for 11 years, shanap is being used in the name of religion. Bulldozer is being used. You do not have a Muslim MP. Even a single Muslim MP is not in the coalition. Even after that, we are saying very shamelessly that we are awakening. The BJP was playing the reason for this.

He further said, “Till this law is returned, the sword is hanging on our heads. I hope that its hearing will continue, it will not be put in cold storage.”

Supreme Court on Waqf Amendment Bill 2025: The Supreme Court on Wednesday (April 16, 2025) started hearing on petitions challenging the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025. The bench of Chief Justice (CJI) Sanjeev Khanna, Justice Sanjay Kumar and Justice KV Vishwanathan is hearing the case. The court did not pass any interim order and will resume the hearing on Thursday, 17 April.

Ten petitions were listed in front of the back. More than 15 petitions have been filed by religious institutions, members of Parliament, political parties, states challenging the 2025 Act. Five BJP -led states: Assam, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Uttarakhand, Haryana and Maharashtra have filed intervention applications supporting this law. On April 8, the Center filed a cavity in the Supreme Court requesting that no order be passed without listening to its side.

Supreme Court’s big comments during today’s hearing

1- During Wednesday’s debate, CJI Khanna expressed concern about how some properties have been classified as Waqf. Chief Justice Sanjeev Khanna said, “We have been told that the Delhi High Court building is on the land of Waqf, Oberoi Hotel is on the land of Waqf.

2- Advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for the petitioners, presented his arguments. He argued that under Islamic law, the inheritance comes only after death and the government is now trying to intervene before that. Reacting to Sibal’s remarks, CJI Khanna said, “But this happens in Hindus. So Parliament has enacted a law for Muslims. It may not be like a law for Hindus. Article 26 will not stop making laws in this case. Article 26 is universal and it is secular in the sense that it applies to all.”

3- During his arguments, Sibal cited the provision (Section 3C), according to which, the property identified as government property will not be a Waqf property and the government’s authority will decide the dispute. Sibal then mentioned Section 3D, which calls the construction of Waqf invalid on the preserved monuments from ASI. On this, the CJI said that according to the provision, if property was a protected monument at the time of construction of Waqf, then such Waqf would be invalid. CJI Khanna asked, “How many such cases will be there?” Sibal replied, “Jama Masjid.” However, the CJI said that the Jama Masjid was later notified as a protected monument.

According to Live Law, the CJI said, “I think the interpretation is in your favor. If it is declared a Waqf before declaring it an ancient monument, it will not make any difference. It will remain a vaqf, you should not object until it can be declared Waqf after declaring it preserved. Most of the monuments, ancient mosques, will not be affected by this section.”

4- Sibal also talked about Section 9, 14 related to the nomination of non-Muslims in the Central Waqf Parishad and State Waqf boards. Sibal said that this is a direct violation of Article 26. Sibal argued that the central law related to Sikhs and Hindu religious settlement related to gurdwaras and many state laws related to laws do not allow people of other religions to include people. Sibal also objected to the provisions that make registration mandatory. CJI asked, “What’s wrong with this?” Sibal said that at present, a Waqf can be made by the user without registration.

The CJI said, “You can register the Waqf, which will also help you to maintain the register.” Justice Vishwanathan also said, “If you have a deed then there will be no fake or false claim.” Sibal said, “They will ask us whether a Waqf was created 300 years ago and will ask to present its documents. Many of these assets were made hundreds of years ago and they will not have any documents.”

5- On behalf of the Center, India’s Solicitor General Tushar Mehta emphasized that the law was enacted after a practice by the Joint Parliamentary Committee. He said that both houses of Parliament passed the bill after a long debate. While the debate continued, the CJI pointed to the provision related to disputes with the government and asked why the property should not be considered until the dispute was settled.

The CJI said, “Why will this waqf not live? Let the civil court decide it.” The CJI asked, “Mr. Tushar Mehta, tell us. If the Waqf-Bai-Uzer was accepted before the 2025 Act, is it now declared zero or existential?”

6- The CJI also sought clarity about the conditions that the property should not be disputed. The CJI said, “We did not have any registration before the British arrive. Many mosques are built in the 14th or 15th century. It is impossible to present them to submit the registered documents. In most cases, such as Jama Masjid Delhi, Waqf By user will be Waqf.”

7- The Chief Justice also questioned Mehta about the provision made in Section 2A, which states that despite any decision of the court, the property of the trust will not come under the purview of the Waqf Act. The CJI said, “You cannot declare any decision or order of the Legislative Court zero, you can remove the basis of the law but you cannot declare any decision binding.”

8- CJI Khanna also asked about the provisions allowing for enrollment of non-Muslim members in Waqf boards. The CJI asked, “When we sit here to take a decision, we forget our religion. We are talking about a board that is managing religious matters. Suppose in the Hindu temple, all Hindus in the Governor Council are all Hindus. How are you comparing with judges?”

9- The CJI also expressed concern over the provision of Section 2A. CJI Khanna said, “Where the public trust has been declared a Waqf, suppose 100 or 200 years ago, you turn back and say that it is not a waqf. You cannot write the past 100 years ago!”

10- During the hearing, Tushar Mehta said that a large section of Muslims does not want to be governed by the Waqf Act. On this, the CJI asked whether you are saying that now Muslims will also be included in the Hindu Entry Board? Just say it clearly.

Bihar News: Spiritual Guru Devkinandan Thakur has received a response to the violence against Waqf Amendment Act in West Bengal. During a conversation with the media in Buxar on Tuesday (April 14), he said, “Whether it is Akhilesh, Dinesh, whether there is any Mamta, no one is taking anyone’s name, I am just saying that the condition with which the fire has come from Bangladesh to Bengal, bean style is being tortured. The same fire will be the same if the fire will move slowly.”

Attacking politicians, he said, “Do not talk about Hindus, talk about castes. I believe that rise above castes, rise above chairs and keep a huge thinking. Try to save India.”

Thanks to PM Modi and Amit Shah

Devkinandan Thakur thanked PM Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah for the Waqf law. Said, “Amit Shah fought the fight till 2 o’clock in the night. They have fought for the countrymen. There is no such law. There is no such law in the Muslim country. The property of poor poor widow Muslim women was also grabbed. This will not work in this country.”

Devkinandan Thakur said, “When King Bali had donated the entire universe to the Lord Vamana, then who are you going to donate to the Waqf Board? In two verses, Vamana God measured the whole universe, then the whole land was done by Vamana.

‘Buxar has different names in all four ages’

On the other hand, Devkinandan Thakur said about the importance of Buxar that it has different names in all four ages. Whether it is Siddhashram, whether it is a Vamana place, it has a different significance in every era. He said that Lord Shri Ram should have so much light that people from India and abroad keep coming here. The Bihar government should make an airport here.

Plea against waqf law: Jamaat-e-Islami Hind has filed a petition before the Supreme Court of India (Supreme Court), which has challenged the constitutional validity of the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025. Jamaat Vice President Professor Salim Engineer, Maulana Shafi Madni and Inam Ur Rehman as well as other senior officials of Jamaat have raised serious concern over the new law in the Union of India (defendant).

The petition states that these amendments violate fundamental rights and fragment the religious, charitable and community-oriented character of Waqfs in the country. The petition has demanded that the amendments have been unconstitutional by violating Articles 14, 15, 16, 25, 26 and 300 (A) of the Indian Constitution.

Major episodes raised in the petition:

1. Violation of fundamental rights

The amended Act brings changes in the definition and structure of Waqf and imposes an improper restriction on who can create Waqf and how it can be managed. For example, now, according to the law, the donor must prove that he has followed Islam for at least five years – it is a vague and arbitrary expectation, which is not based on Islamic law and can deprive women, converted people and many real donors from using their religious freedom. This is directly a violation of Articles 25 and 15, which guarantee security against religious freedom and discrimination.

2. Waqf board erosion

The new law dissolves the elected Waqf boards and appoints officials appointed by the government in their place, including officers who do not have the expected knowledge of non-Muslim and Islamic jurisdiction. It basically violates the right to manage its religious institutions of the provided community of Article 26. In addition, the amendment has removed the need to be a Muslim CEO of the board, which will weaken communal representation.

3. Inappropriate acquisition of Waqf properties

Section 3D of the Act has been introduced to declare all the Waqf properties void under a hurry and arbitrary ASI protected monuments, irrespective of their historical religious significance. This provision basically canceled the ancient monument and archaeological site related to Waqf properties and Section 6 of the Archaeological Site, 1958, as well as a discriminatory structure by which only Muslim religious monuments have taken away their religious form and management from Muslim religious monuments. In addition, this law enables the encroachers to claim adverse occupation of the Waqf land by applying with the retrospective impact under the Border Act, 1963, which threatens more damage to Muslim charitable property.

4. Failure of community counseling

Despite the broad and intensive effective nature of amendments, they were passed in a hurry, and postponing procedural rules and changes such as sections 3D and 3E were added to the last time during parliamentary proceedings. The important thing is that in addition to other people of the community, the officials of Jamaat had raised serious objections before the Joint Parliamentary Committee, ignored in the final Act. This gross neglect is a violation of democratic principles and the spirit of participating governance.

Additional legal argument:

The Act invalid the concept of Waqf by the user – which is a judicial accepted principle, which has also been confirmed in the Ram Janmabhoomi -Babri Masjid decision – which ends the historical Waqf without written deeds or documents. This considers government revenue records (records of rights) as a decisive evidence of ownership, while the judicial example believes that such entries do not determine ownership, especially in the case of Waqf properties.

Citing the decisions of Lal Shah Baba Dargah, Sheikh Yusuf Chawla and Ramjas Foundation, the argument has been argued that the evaluation of the Dharma should be done in terms of community use and historical continuity, not only on the basis of government records.

Jamaat-e-Islami Hind insists that Waqf is an integral part of Islamic faith and Indian heritage which is deeply associated with charity, education and social welfare. Any attempt to weaken its religious and community character is not only unconstitutional, but also morally unjust. The Jamaat calls for civil society, legal experts and committed citizens to pluralism and justice to raise their voice against arbitrarily eliminating Waqf security and stands in solidarity with this constitutional challenge.

Sanjay nirupam on waqf: Sanjay Nirupam Shiv Sena, leader of Shiv Sena Eknath Shinde faction, is an attacker on the opposition including the Waqf law. While earlier he claimed about Uddhav Thackeray, he also gave a controversial statement against the Muslims. At the same time, Sanjay Nirupam has made serious allegations against the Muslim community while surrounding Shiv Sena UBT and Congress.

Sanjay Nirupam said during the press conference on Sunday (April 6), “A report should be made by the Maharashtra government, more than 90 thousand acres of land is near Waqf, everyone should know.

‘Money is getting money from Muslim organizations’
He further said, “Shiv Sena UBT gave his role against Waqf till UBT people went to Tilmila in the Rajya Sabha and Sanjay Raut went to the bottom level and described Praful Patel as a man of broker and Dawood. They have done this for that they are getting money from the Muslim organization. “

What did you say on Ramnavami?
On the other hand, Sanjay Nirupam said about Ram Navami, “It is a very embarrassing thing, when the Hindu Ram of the whole country celebrates Ram, some Muslims of jihadi tendency deliberately spoil the atmosphere, so the government is having to come and alert. It is a shame to keep alert on the Hindu festival, unfortunately, Hindus have to go to court to take out their beauty.”

‘Uddhav Thackeray became the messiah of Muslims’
He further said, due to secular people, the politics of West Bengal runs, Hindus are being tortured there. Uddhav Thackeray is also following the map of Mamta Banerjee, Mamta Banerjee of Maharashtra has become. Has become the new Messiah of Muslims, Muslim heart has become emperors. “

‘Now MVA will be scattered’
Nirupam claimed that Sharad Pawar is the senior leader of the country, he knows what is right and what is wrong. Therefore, MPs voted in support of Waqf. They know that business is going on in the name of Waqf, so Sharad Pawar has kept his role in favor of this bill. After this role of Sharad Pawar, MVA will be scattered.

Rjd on waqf amendment bill 2025: In Patna, Tejashwi Yadav held a press conference on the Waqf Board Bill issue, where he said that if our government is formed in Bihar, he will throw this bill in the box of waste. The battle of Waqf will go to the House, Road and Court. RJD has strongly opposed the Waqf Board in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. He said that the way we raised their voice from the road to the court for the fight for reservation, similarly the injustice being done to the Muslim with the Waqf Board has gone to the Rashtriya Janata Dal Supreme Court on Saturday.

‘Our MPs voted in the fire of this bill’

Tejashwi Yadav said that our MPs voted in the fire of this bill. We believe this is an unconstitutional bill. Article 26 that is in our constitution, it violates it. People of BJP are doing polarization politics. These people want to divide the country, who are the real issues of inflation, migration, the economic situation of the country. These people are wandering from this issue and cooking their political bread.

Journalist – Apart from going to court, what option do you have?

Tejashwi Yadav – The day our government is formed, we will throw this bill in the dustbin.pic.twitter.com/9t6gcron9l

– Office of Tejashwi Yadav (@Tejashwioffice) April 5, 2025

He said, the people of RSS BJP are anti -constitution. These people are constantly violating the constitution. These people want to implement Nagpuria law across the country. We talk about constitution and secularism. At the same time, on CM Nitish, he said that Chief Minister Nitish Kumar is in unconscious state. We will not comment on them. We are worried about their situation, but whatever party was in support in this bill, which used to call themselves secular parties or call secular leaders, they have been exposed.

They do politics! Such people do not do politics for the people, unity and ideology of the country. Now no one can come and justify that Narendra Modi and BJP people want the good of Muslims and this bill is in favor of Muslims, no one will accept it. The way the fight for reservation was increased by 65% ​​of backward and very backward Dalit tribals, which the BJP stopped and stopped in court today. We raised their voice from the road to the House for the fight for reservation and today is in court. At the same time, today the Rashtriya Janata Dal has gone to the Supreme Court about the injustice that is happening to the Muslim about the Waqf Board.

Tejashwi Yadav said, “People who abuse Muslims day and night. Openly abuse on TV. Muslim MPs are called Mulla in Parliament, their MPs say shoot, Prime Minister says, they will snatch them from clothes, Mars will snatch urine. In Bihar, Bachaul says that Muslim voting power should be snatched and these people know that the people know that the public is aware of the real issues. Has gone”

People of NDA will have to bear the brunt- Tejashwi

The RJD leader also clearly said that when our government comes, we will not allow it to be implemented in Bihar at any cost. I want to tell the Dalit brothers to the Hindu brothers that they are running the project to remove the RSS and the BJP backward from the mainstream. Right now Muslims are on target, but the real target is Dalit backward Mahadalit tribals, who are our backward Hindus. Those who are Dalit Hindus are tribal Hindus. There is a conspiracy to stop him in the mainstream. Our party and our national president Lalu Yadav have the support about the Waqf Board that the people of NDA will have to face the brunt of this.
