Fatwas

With todays letter to the Editor, K.N.Pandita writes:

Dear Sir, With reference to your editorial ‘’Wrong Remedy’’ (ToI, 15 March) four leading Muslim Clerics who have issued fatwa saying, among other things, that “Islam does not support violence,” have rather unwittingly stirred up a perilous controversy of far-reaching consequences within Islamic society. Their fatwa is likely to be challenged by a huge host of Islamic scholastics and orthodoxy. K.N. Pandita, New Delhi.
