New Delhi: Prominent Muslim clerics belonging to different factions in India Tuesday appealed to the Muslims to refrain from slaughtering cow on the occasion of Eid as a mark of respect for the religious feelings of Hindus.
According to media reports, deputy head of Islamic Seminary Dar-ul-Uloom Deoband Maulana Abdul Khaliq Madrasi said that the institution was in favour of Muslims avoiding cow slaughter.
He said in some states there is a ban on cow slaughter but Muslims should avoid sacrificing the animal even at places where it has not been prohibited.
Moreover, in a statement issued on Tuesday, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board vice-president and Shia cleric Maulana Syed Kalbe Sadiq said, “It is my appeal to Muslims to completely restrain from sacrificing the cow on the Eid-ul-Azha. India is our country and we should respect the feeling of Hindu brethren who are in the majority.”
