Religion Does Not Influence Interpersonal Discrimination Between Muslims And Hindus In India. The Hindu-Muslim Fraternity, Rooted In Shared History And Cultural Merging, Promotes Cooperation And Common Culture Between Hindus And Muslims. For Example, The Police Administration In Kathara, Uttar Pradesh, Once Expressed Concerns About Security Due To The Simultaneous Observation Of Muharram And Dussehra.  However, Villagers Agreed To Celebrate Ram Leela And Ta'ziya, Demonstrating A New Brotherhood.

------

It is generally necessary to admit that religion has no role in interpersonal discrimination. There are striking examples of the cordial relationship between Muslims and Hindus all around India.

These are the instances that demonstrate the shared history of Islam and Hinduism. These are the reasons behind the general appreciation of the Hindu-Muslim fraternity.

Future generations will be doing themselves a disservice if they forget these models and this kind of brotherhood.

Islamic texts do not distinguish individuals based on socioeconomic class, in contrast to Hindu teachings.

The division of Muslims into 73 sects is not the result of Islamic beliefs and practices. Although the traditional practices vary depending on a person’s location, all Muslims have the same basic beliefs. Their traditional behaviours fluctuate accordingly. These concepts of unity hold a place in the hearts of both Hindus and Muslims in rural India.

You also know how the innocent Hindus and Muslims of the village share the stages of Dussehra, Ram Leela and Tazia for unity.

It is so simple to say, yet reuniting these lovely examples and shared legacy may prove challenging for upcoming generations of Muslims and Hindus.

In Islam, cruelty has no place. Hindu Muslim brotherhood is a key component of "cooperation and common culture."

The process of combining and merging Indian cultural elements is what truly forms the unity between Hindus and Muslims. The idea of intercultural understanding revolves around this.

Imam Hussain was the grandson of Prophet Muhammad. He sacrificed his family and friends to protect Islam and humanity.

The Ta'zia procession is carried out by Shia Muslims as a memorial to this martyrdom. These Ta'zias are regarded as martyr symbologies. It is ceremoniously buried after being carried out in a procession.

Iraq is home to Imam Hussain's tomb. Muslims around the world observe Muharram as a month of mourning. The Ashura Day falls on 10 Muharram. Today is a day to honour Imam Hussain's brave sacrifice. It is a day to remember the brave sacrifice of Imam Hussain.

Even today, in the villages of India, there are examples of Muslim brothers giving their lives for such a shared tradition.

Here, we are discussing the village of Kathara, next to Kanpur district, in the state of Uttar Pradesh. There are roughly 1600 Hindus and 550 Muslims residing in this village.

The Hindu community celebrates every Ram Leela celebration with considerable fanfare. There was a time when numerous security-related queries were brought up with the police on Ashura Day of Muharram.

The leader of the mourning procession, Muhammad Taslim, recalls a period when Ashura and Dussehra fell on the same day.

The village's Muslim population presented several challenges for the police administration. The village's Hindu-Muslim population was likewise in doubt because each group had to observe their festivals.

Anirudh Singh, a member of the Dussehra Ram Leela Committee, claims that Muharram and Ram Leela were to be held in his village. It was expected of the villagers to live in harmony. But the real puzzle was how this was feasible. This concerned the village's innocent residents.

To resolve the matter, a peace committee meeting was arranged at the closest police station. Participants at this conference included Muhammad Taslim, Haleem, Dildar Khan, Arif, Balwinder Singh, Rathore, Kamal Singh, Anirudh Singh, and Ajay Gupta, among others.

The police brought up the subject of security and requested ideas for keeping the peace during Muharram and Ramleela so that members of the two communities might easily celebrate their festivals.

Following that, the villagers decided to model a new brotherhood. It was then determined that Ram Leela would begin following this Ta'zia on-stage organisation. This move shocked the police officers, but they also let the event be celebrated in this manner after the representatives of the Muslim and Hindu communities gave their approval.

The Hindus welcomed the Muslim brothers of the village who arrived with Ta'zia before Ramlala was brought to the stage. Then Tazia was put on Ramleela's stage, and finally, Ramlila was put on the stage.

Following that, Muslims and Hindus gave one other warm embrace and respectfully observed their festivals.
