Srinagar, August 04, 2008

The locals and Auqaf Committee of Habba Kadal in a joint effort held the marriage ceremony.

“We did whatever we felt as our moral duty. We know communal forces are eyeing to disrupt the religious harmony in the state, but we will not allow them to succeed,” Bashir Ahmad, a neighbour of the Kouls, said. A member of the Auqaf Committee said Muslims were duty bound by their religion to take care of their neighbours. “We are Muslims and will abide by what our religion says in matters of behaviour with our neighbours, no matter what the caste or religion of the neighbour is,” he added.
