Namaz

Some female students requested that college authorities provide a place for women to offer Namaz prayers on Friday. When their request was not met, they decided to stage protests outside the office of the college's principal, Father Kannadan Francis on the 26th.

Students of anganwadis in Jamnagar and Vadodara are being taught to read namaz, celebrate Eid, triggering massive outrage

A Muslim youth uploaded an online post depicting namazis praying during Muharram as pigs, seemingly to mock the Shia community, a sect within the Muslim community that chiefly observes the festival.

Muslim religious leaders backed the Chief Minister's appeal, leading to Eid prayers held exclusively at designated Eidgahs and other traditional locations. In areas where mosques and Eidgahs had limited space, prayers were conducted in different shifts.

Rajasthan Education Minister said teachers won't be able to leave the school premises while on duty to worship or offer namaz.

Thirty students began praying namaz in the school's yard in March of last year while kneeling on blazers.

Hindu activists also agitated against teaching namaz at the Eid event in the play school in Roorkee, Uttarakhand.

BJP's Goshamahal legislator T Raja Singh took to X to inform that the Telangana police had placed him under house arrest to prevent him from going to Chengicherla village, where Hindus had come under attack by a Muslim mob on Holi.

One of the faculty members confirmed to OpIndia that the incident happened within the college premises and the authorities including the college principal failed to take any action against the students for offering Namaz in the college without permission.
