'Fight words with words': Indian Muslims for Secular Democracy opposes re-banning of Salman Rushdie's book
Monday, 30 December 2024 The Indian Muslims for Secular Democracy (IMSD) urges Muslims to oppose calls for reban on Salman Rushdie's 'The Satanic Verses' and adopt intellectual responses instead. IMSD recalled Sir Syed Ahmad Khan's teachings on countering critiques with reason, highlighting its relevance amidst current communal tensions.
Pope Francis will be remembered as one of the most transformative figures in modern Church history. From washing the feet of Muslim prisoners to declaring homosexuality "not a crime," he shattered centuries of convention. Francis stood with the marginalized, lived humbly, and redefined papal leadership. He demanded accountability for clergy abuse, apologized to Indigenous communities, and led global reforms. A voice of compassion in a rigid institution, Pope Francis broke walls—and built bridges. His legacy lives on in every act of inclusion, humility, and courage.
