Fatwa Against Imam For Attending Ayodhya Event: In a bold stance, the Islamic cleric has defended his actions, asserting that his visit to the Pran Pratishtha ceremony was driven by a message of love and not malice.
Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Sharad Sharma announced that the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya has received crores of donations from devotees across the country.
A fatwa has allegedly been issued against All India Imam Organization chief Dr Imam Umer Ahmed Ilyasi after he attended the 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony of Ram Lalla at Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22.

Those who hate me for attending the ceremony should perhaps go to Pakistan. I have given a message of love, I did not do any crime. I will not apologise or resign, they can do whatever they want, says Imam Umer Ahmed Ilyasi.
