Examine sermons of Dr Zakir Naik: Bangladesh tells India

July 7, 2016

Dhaka, Jul 7: The government of Bangladesh has asked India to examine the speeches of Dr Zakir Naik after controversial reports claimed that two of the seven terrorists who hacked to death 20 people at a Dhaka cafe last week were inspired by him.

"Already there are certain complaints from the Maulanas of Bangladesh that his (Naik) teachings are not in line with the Quranic teachings and Hadith," information minister Hasanul Haq Inu said on Wednesday.

"How much Naik's teachings influenced the terrorists, that is to be investigated. We are investigating the whole matter," he said.

Mr Inu said New Delhi has been requested to examine Naik's sermons. "I also request the Indian government and information minister that they also examine the context of Dr Naik's teachings," he added.

Earlier Bangladeshi newspaper 'Daily Star' reported that one of the Dhaka attackers, suspected to be Rohan Imtiaz - the son of a politician of Bangladesh's ruling Awami League - ran a propaganda on Facebook last year quoting 50-year-old Naik.

When the report first emerged, the Indian government said: "We don't ban individuals, we ban organisations."

Dr Zakir naik' s naik controversy is bound to happen due to his increasing popularity around the world for spreading peace. Our hypocrite politicians and news channels and their blatant liars like Arnab goswamy do not want peace makers in the society as it wont help them to accomplish their agenda. Dr Zakir naik never breaks any law of the land and always preached the truth.. Quran is the only religious book which specifically and strongly condems killings of innocent people. Dr Naik will have the help of Allah no matter how hard the media tries to malign his name. May Allah be with you Dr Zakir bhai and all Muslims. Ameen.

Bopanna, if you are real hindu, and against these muslims, how you can work in muslim country? By working there you are helping these People. So resign immediately and come back to india. Let us see your real Hinduism. For the money you will do everything this is the fact. If you don't resign then don't blame them. Instead accept their religion and live with them.

Mr.Bopanna.... please be careful on what you comment.. know the facts and provide sources before spitting out sensitive words...
Islam exists for more than 1400 years and terrorists less than 50 yearsss, if Holy Quran teaches to kill Kuffars as you say then I am surprised that not 1% of the world's killings is done by Islam....

There are more than 2 billion muslims in the world and is 30% of the worlds population.... if we all muslims become terrorists then jerks like you would have vanished in minutes... but no, our religion doesn't teach that.... no where we are thought in Quran to kill kafirs or non muslims than helping them....

IF ISIS, daesh or any terrorists organisation u label them as muslims, then u are ignorant, illiterate and an idiot.... can u not see the recent blast in baghdad killed more than 220 muslims, turkey more than 40, Ksa recently.... how an earth a terrorist can kill muslims if his target is kuffars....are the terrorists idiots enough to make out the difference is religion....Terrorists has no religion and ISIS,Daes or any group of idiots are not a part of our holy religion which promotes peace....not killings

Non muslims are just scared of ZN coz of the conversion ratios of non muslims into Islam....I doubt any of his videos have thought or inspired any one to become a terrorists... none of them I have seen... If he is then I will never be his supporter but if he is not then please dont comment unnecessary things in social media.... without a valid source....

Surprisingly u seems to be a reisdent of KSA.... how on earth with somuch hatredness within yourself can work in a muslim country abiding all muslim laws... and enjoy the incomes of muslim ruled companies, Money changed ur mind and developed tolerance with u... lol...

Brothers... dont blindly believe media as most of the storie are fabricated.. there is story behind what media portrays... Islam is never a religion of killing but a religion which promotes peace and condemns killing....

Asatyameva Jayate, yes you are a terrorist no doubt. All Muslims are terrorists since they abide by the Koran - which asks to kill all Kuffars. Koran shuld be banned and all Muslims Jailed

Those who can't face ZN on talk or debate, obviously they go for backdoor to defame ZN. Modi's popularity going down in day by day and also UP elections ahead, so this 'inspire' story has more depth to divert people's attention. RSS pracharak and terror accused Indresh kumar founded modern Sufism and using the same Sufism against Islam. US did the same in Iraq, Libya, Syria, Pakistan, Afghanistan to destroy Islam by 'Muslims'. Muslims are scapegoat of divide and rule either by western country or India.
Some so called our scholars also knowingly or unknowingly victim of Sufism to defame Islam and against ZN.

Mangaluru, Dec 7: A 34-year-old fruit and vegetable trader in Mangaluru has reportedly lost ₹33.1 lakh after falling victim to an online investment scam run through a fake mobile app.

Police said the scam began in September, when the victim received a link on Facebook. Clicking it connected him to a WhatsApp number, where an unidentified person introduced a high-return investment scheme and instructed him to download an app.

To build trust, the fraudster asked him to invest ₹30,000 on September 24. The trader soon received ₹34,000 as “profit,” convincing him the scheme was genuine. Over the next two months, he transferred money in multiple instalments via Google Pay and IMPS to different scanner codes and bank accounts shared by the scammers. Between September 24 and December 3, he ended up sending a total of ₹33.1 lakh.

When he later requested a refund of his investment and promised returns, the scammers demanded additional payments, claiming he needed to pay a “service tax” first. Even after he paid a small amount, no money was returned, and the scammers continued pressuring him for more.

A case has been registered at the CEN Crime Police Station.

Udupi: A 40-year-old NRI from Udupi has reportedly lost more than Rs 12.25 lakh in an online investment scam operated through Telegram.

According to a complaint filed at the CEN police station, Leo Jerome Mendonsa, who has been working in Dubai for the past 15 years in computer accessories sales, maintains NRI accounts in Karkala and Nitte.

On November 12, 2025, Mendonsa was added to a Telegram group called Instaflow Earnings by unknown individuals. Users identified as Priya and Dipannita persuaded him to invest in “Revenue Tasks.” Initially, Mendonsa transferred Rs 1,100 multiple times and received the promised returns, encouraging him to continue.

On November 14, another user, Nishmitha Shetty, directed him to register on a website, digitvisionuoce.cc, and invest Rs 4 lakh in various shares. Over the next few days, he made multiple transfers totaling Rs 12,25,000, including Rs 50,000 via Google Pay, believing the scheme was legitimate.

After receiving the money, the alleged handlers stopped responding, and neither the invested amount nor the promised profits were returned.

The CEN police have registered a case under Sections 66(C) and 66(D) of the IT Act and Section 318(4) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), and investigations are ongoing.

Mangaluru, Nov 30: A 22-year-old college student succumbed to her injuries at a private hospital in Mangaluru today, days after she was hit by a goods tempo while crossing a road in Padubidri.

The deceased has been identified as Preksha, a resident of Nadsalu Billitota in Padubidri. The fatal incident occurred as Preksha, who was returning home after completing her examination, attempted to cross the service road towards Mangaluru. She was struck by a goods tempo approaching from the Udupi side, causing her to fall and sustain a severe head injury.

Prompt action from local residents ensured she received immediate first aid before being rushed to a hospital in Mangaluru for specialised treatment. Despite medical efforts, she passed away while undergoing care.

Preksha was a student at Karavali College, Vamanjoor on the outskirts of Mangaluru city. The tragedy is compounded by the fact that she belonged to a financially vulnerable family, having previously lost her father. She is survived by her mother and brother.

A case related to the accident has been registered at the Padubidri police station, and an investigation is underway to determine the exact circumstances that led to the collision. The incident highlights the growing concerns over road safety, particularly on busy service roads, and serves as a tragic reminder of the human cost of traffic accidents.
