Days after ‘pran pratishtha’ of Lord Ram at the grand temple, a fatwa has been issued against Dr Imam Umer Ahmed Ilyasi, Chief Imam of All India Imam Organization (AIIO), for attending the January 22 ceremony in Ayodhya. The fatwa against Imam Ilyasi has been issued on behalf of Mufti Sabir Hussaini.

As per reports, the fatwa urged other clerics in India to initiate action against Imam Ilyasi.

Responding to the development, the Imam said he would issue another fatwa to challenge this one.

“I am not living in a Muslim country…This does not apply to me… I’ll challenge it,” he said.

The Islamic cleric also claimed that he has been facing protests after he visited the Pran Pratishtha ceremony.
