J&K Peoples Conference Senior General Secretary Imran Reza Ansari today strongly rebuffed the “Jannat” remarks made by NC leader Omar Abdullah during a rally in Budgam and asked him to refrain from commenting on religion.
While expressing his utter surprise at Abdullah’s remarks, Ansari as per the sources, took to the microblogging site X saying, “During the Budgam rally Omar Abdullah said that these A team B team etc may get certificate of election but they will not get certificate of Jannat. I was taken aback by such comments. I normally try not to react, but since it concerns our religion, I felt compelled to intervene as a keen adherent and student of Islam.”
Refuting Abdullah’s assertion, Ansari stated, “May I remind Omar Abdullah that only the Almighty Allah will decide who goes to Jannat. That is the essence of our faith, of our religion. Let’s not mock religion. Omar Abdullah will not decide who will go to Jannat and who won’t.”
Ansari further cautioned Abdullah on commenting on religion and asserted that the days of myths and deception are over.
“I must caution him that the era of astagfirullah – ‘la-ila-ha il lalah sheikh Mohammed Abdullah’ is over, as is the era of myths surrounding Sheikh Abdullah’s name being written on chinar leaves. That deception is simply not possible now”
In a scathing critique, Ansari further said that Omar Abdullah is fortunate to have political opponents who refrain from questioning his religiosity.
