'Proud That We're Hindustani Muslims': Ghulam Nabi Azad in Emotional Farewell Speech | The Quint

"I am among those fortunate people who never went to #Pakistan. When I read about the conditions in Pakistan, I feel proud that we are Hindustani Muslims. We are seeing that Muslim countries are fighting amongst each other, there are no Hindus there or Christians,” Veteran #Congress Leader #GhulamNabiAzad said in his retirement speech in the #RajyaSabha on 9 February.

Thank God I do not live in a country like yours where other minority groups are ill-treated and even lynched for no reason (even though killing innocent people is haraam), India is far better than Pakistan in that regard. There are intolerant people in every religion (including ours) but they do not represent the religion. Most Hindus treat us with love and respect 🤗🤗 Being a minority in India is not horrible like it is in Pakistan. Most people in India respect people with different beliefs and we live in harmony pretty much all the time. That's what makes our country unique. I absolutely love that about my country ❤ I am a patriotic Indian and a Muslim. Jai Hind.

Our beloved Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (Pbuh) said: “Love of your country (patriotism) is a part of your faith.” Islam does not forbid a Muslim to love his motherland/homeland or his own country in which he lives or grows up. ... Love for the native country or motherland is inherent in men.
