Recently, it was decided that Vande Mataram (India's national song) wud b sung in all educational institutes on the 7th of Sept. to commemorate it's 100th yr. of being written.But some Muslim clerics objected saying that it equalises God with country so it won't be sung by them since it was against the Islam tenets.The govt. later said that the singing is completely voluntary not compulsary.
The same song united us in our stuggle 4 independence n now they're refusing to sing it.I think the issue is being communalised n politicised. V r losing our national spirit. Yes, I am a Muslim n I don't find anything wrong in singing it. It is symbolic of our unity. How fair in not singing it?

a42fy, v don't kill ppl, ok?Killing of the innocent is prohibited in our religion.Moreover, members of the clergy are true Muslims, they'll never kill ppl.
Paul, they might be fanatics, definitely not clergymen.I do accept that Islamic extremists exist. But c'mon, every1's not like that.
Thanks Maggie:)

Sorry, but there are also some Muslim clerics who come and live in England/USA and then claim the countries are pure evil and convince dead heads to be suicide bombers!
No offense to the majority, but Muslim fanatics are fcuking a*seholes!

I agree with you. People refusing to sing Vande Mataram had no reason or right to live in India. Vande Mataram is a prayer-song in Honor of our motherland. I am sure Islam doesn't prevent its adherents from bowing before the mother," Get the hell out of India and start living in one of the lousy terrorist countries like Pakistan or other Low life Muslim country. Muslims are an embarrassment to humanity and cause problems every where they go. Just look at any terrorist attacks or unrest over the last several years.

If all Muslims in the world were thinking on your lines, the world would have been peaceful. But, the case is not so. The clerics want to have hold over their men and for that they are using the religion. No one objects to observe ones own religion, but it should not be brought to the streets.
The clerics want to be in medival age and does not want to progress economically.
One should respect his country and its flag / anthem. Saying that it is against their religion, amounts to non patriotism. It is the persons like you, who should guide the ill educated among your group and bring them to the mainstream of the nation. It will also help in reducing the tension between the Muslims and Hindus.

Dear Farha, I agree with your thinking and your feelings in his matter. To refuse to sing it creates a divide in India as a nation, and that is not healthy for any of the people of India.
In hope, until the world finds peace,
Maggie

Seams to me that forcing people to sing it even if they don't want to would be far more troublesome.
