I'm a Muslim, I know how it is. The people who created this video, are Muslims. One from a good deen family.
Then, there are a lot of traditional songs that praise prophet (saw), almighty. So, if you take a cam and shoot that while playing the song in the background, people will not be sitting straight respecting the song. And prophet (saw) never told us to show respect in any way to such things.
There are a few Hindustani gazals that praise almighty, where people are doing whatever they want to do. And nobody seems to care. Yet, this is song becomes an issue. These songs are part of our culture. This not just one song, there are hundreds or thousands of such songs. Many are on youtube. I don't see anyone giving a damn about it. This is some publicity stunt of some sect who wants to become the spokesperson of Entire Muslims. It'll pass.

Blasphemy is now a part of Hindustani Muslim culture.

Congratulations, you've reached a new low.

There are no cast or sect in here.

They are talking about our religious peoples including our Prophet and video showing flirting. How low Indians can go this is prime example for that and they are claiming that they respect others

Viral song with Priya Varrier is part of Kerala Muslim tradition, why the outrage?

The internet has gone bonkers after the release of the song titled Manikya Malaraya Poovi from the upcoming movie "Oru Adaar Love", featuring Priya Varrier and Roshan. While the initial hype was centered around Priya's now famous "wink", the popularity of the song has also paved way for a controversy.

A few Muslim youth from Hyderabad filed a police complaint against the film's director Omar Lulu and Priya Varrier. An FIR has been filed against the duo alleging that the song mentions the prophet.

The group's grouse is that the song is about Prophet Muhammed and his first wife Khadija. They have found the lyrics and the picturisation of the song, offensive. The song has visuals of youngsters flirting with each other.

However, the song isn't new and neither are the lyrics. In fact the composer of the song Shaan Rahman had announced even before release that he was only reimagining a famous Mappila Pattu.

(Mappila is a word used to refer to the Muslim community in northern Kerala, while pattu means song).

The song was written in 1978 by PMA Jabbar and composed by Thalassery K Refeeque.

Way before the song made it into the film in the voice of popular singer Vineeth Sreenivasan, it was a part and parcel of many celebrations in the Muslim community.

The Mappila Pattu is a folk tradition that involves songs and dances about the Prophet, peace, love and war. These songs and dances are a common sight in weddings, other celebrations and even at art festivals conducted in schools and colleges.

The songs that blend Arabic and Malayalam also use phrases from Urdu, Persian, Hindi, Tamil, Sanskrit and Kannada and became a part of the Muslim community's tradition centuries ago.

The songs include Malappattu – in praise of pious personalities, Urudi or Padapattu– tales of war, Viruthangal – songs in praise of god, Kissukal – songs narrating the stories of prophets of Islam, Khessukal – romantic ballads. There are also marriage songs that are popular across Kerala. (Source 1 and Source 2)

The original and lengthier version of the Manikya Malaraya Poovi song describes the first meeting between the Prophet and Khadija. Describing Khadija as a 'woman like the pearl flower living like a queen in Mecca', it is about how she was impressed by the Prophet and sent a marriage proposal for him.

Speaking to TNM, senior journalist Aysha Mahmood says: "This is one of the popular Mappilla songs and had always been sung during weddings and in schools. Even songs for oppana (a dance) talk about the Prophet and the love he had for his wives. So for us, we have all grown up hearing and singing these songs. And therefore, Prophet being in love is not something we worry about!."

On the complaint filed by a Muslim group in Hyderabad, Aysha said, "I think it's the differences in culture and traditions. In Kerala, we have basically grown up singing these songs that celebrate love. May be in other cultures, that is not done, which has now brought out this complaint."

Echoing Aysha's thoughts, VT Murali, a popular Mappila Paattu singer says that the song 'Manikkamalaraya poovi' has been part of the mappilappattu genre for years together.

"This is not a new song, it has been there all along. I don't know why there's a controversy now. "

59-year-old Naseema, a native of Kozhikode, has been a Mappila Paattu singer for years. She shares her surprise at the latest controversy surrounding the song that she has sung several times in different venues.

"I don't see anything wrong in the song. Most of the songs in this genre talk about the Prophet and his wife khadija. Some others talk about weddings and describe the groom and the bride. "

She asserts that nobody in Kerala who is familiar with Mappila Paattu genre, would see anything offensive in the song.

"We even have competitions at school youth festivals where kids sing such songs. I think people outside aren't familiar with these songs, that's why they are making a controversy out of nothing."

TRANSLATION IN ENGLISH
A Pearl Flower like woman Her Highness Khadeeja Beevi
The lady who lived like a queen in the holy city of Mecca
She called Khathim and Nabiyyin(Prophet Mohammed SAW)
Sent as in charge of her trade expedition
First sight of him,Her Qalb(heart) desired him
Blessed Rasoolullah came back after expedition
Beevi Khadija desided to propose Prophet SAW

The lyrics of the song are not just factually wrong but also misleading esp when its February 14th.

Basically they are telling Muslim girls it's ok to friendship boys as it's in your religion , someone is trying hard to make useless stuff go viral.
Khadija ra DID NOT fell in love with the prophet pbuh "at first sight".She gradually came to know about his character and fairness in dealing and thought he was the best companion.

 

[Chhatrapati]

What happened? Did you hear Pakistan winning the world cup?

Blasphemy is now a part of Hindustani Muslim culture.

Congratulations, you've reached a new low.

Did I hear that from a guy who comes from the land of Dargahs?

The lyrics of the song are not just factually wrong but also misleading esp when its February 14th.

Then don't listen to halal music on Feb 14th. They didn't exactly say she "fall in love at first sight" with the prophet (saw). That is a loose translation of the Malayalam lyrics.
What is wrong to have a friendship with boys? And they can't interact or talk, fine, you put a curtain in the class of every school to separate boys from girls. And we'll continue. See who progress better.
Song is not telling anyone anything, it's depicting an old folk song, which has been playing in weddings all over Muslim wedding for decades. Only that, they made a modern version of the already existing song.

If you are Muslim then you must know the difference between songs and Nasheed, even then if you are still arguing then i feel sorry for you. As a Muslim and belong from noble muslim family i can say that it is wrong and against Islam and no one can deny my claim about it and here is my proof (https://www.muftisays.com/blog/abu+mohammed/362_25-06-2010/40-hadith-on-music.html) to justify my claim. If you have any thing against other then your mind then share it.
