Irrfan
Khan,
has
created
a
controversy
with
his
unwarranted
comments
on
Muslims,
Eid
and
fasting.
The
actor
says
that
rather
than
fasting
and
slaughtering
animals,
one
should
introspect
during
the
festival
of
Ramzan.
As
per
a
report
in
India
Today,
the
Madaari
star
was
quoted
as
saying,
"Rather
than
fasting
during
Ramzan,
people
should
self-introspect.
Animals
are
being
slaughtered
on
the
name
of
qurbaani
during
Muharram.
We,
Muslims,
have
made
a
mockery
of
Muharram.
It
is
meant
for
mourning
and
what
we
do?
Take
out
(tajiya)
processions."
Irrfan
Khan,
also
spoke
out
against
Muslims
for
not
condemning
Islamic
terror
and
says,
"Why
Muslims
are
silent
against
the
issue
of
terrorism.
People
should
also
question
the
politicians
over
this
issue."
However,
Maulana
Abdul
Wahid
Khatri,
State
Secretary
of
Jamaat-e-Ulema-e-Hind,
says
that
Irrfan
Khan
is
just
trying
to
create
controversy
to
promote
his
upcoming
film,
Madaari.
"It
would
be
better
if
he
concentrates
on
his
film
career
and
not
make
random
statements
about
our
religion.
He
is
doing
this
just
for
the
publicity
of
his
upcoming
movie."
Well,
we're
not
sure
if
Irrfan
Khan
has
made
these
statements
just
for
the
publicity
of
his
upcoming
film,
Madaari,
or
he
genuinely
feels
this
way!
Whatever
it
is,
he
surely
has
stirred
something
controversial
and
would
stick
with
him
for
a
long
time.
Madaari,
starring
Irrfan
Khan
is
all
set
to
hit
the
theatres
on
June
10,
2016.
