In Occupied Kashmir, Deputy Mayor of Srinagar, Sheikh Mohammad Imran, has asked Kashmiri youth to prefix ‘Mujahid’ to their names, as every Muslim is a Mujahid.
In a statement, he said the word ‘Mujahid’ means one who is engaged in jihad and a protector who strikes against evil and advocates truthfulness.
He said Jihad is a spiritual fight against evil and our religion is being misinterpreted by some sections of Indian media.
The Mayor said a Mujahid is in no way linked to any kind of terrorism.
