Work begins on first Hindu temple in Islamabad

[Pan-Islamic-Pakistan]

Guys, current laws of Pakistan guarantee religious freedom for all minorities. There should be no problem with the Hindu temple, mostly visited by tourists outside the country, like from Nepal.

Now if we want to stop Hindu temples, then laws have to change and be revisited. I hope no one misunderstood what I wrote earlier about Arab lands being free of shirk. That applies to UAE, not Pakistan.

I was making a correlation to show that Pakistani Hindu temple is not controversial as per Islam.

We are building it for Modi, After we win Delhi and he would be in Pakistani jail so sometimes he may allowed to visit temple after eating beef biryani.

quite intelligent. As expected.

What you're doing is called a strawman fallacy.

Me not wanting to spend money on building mandirs doesn't mean i hate minorities or don't want them. That's like saying if i don't want a dog in my home, it means i am an animal hater and want all animals exterminated.

Imran Khan should convert the whole Bani Gala to Mandirs and Churches and Gurdwaras ON HIS OWN EXPENSE.

Don't spend my money on Shirk.

But you would rather have that money used by government to build a mosque. Right?

See?

ONE temple comes up and Pakistanis are fighting among themselves.

We're not monolithic, and this platform being a discussion/debate forum, you're going to have heated discussion/debate on various issues.

Heated discussion and debate is good, and allowing both conservatives and liberals a place to debate is important.

At the end of the day, whether you see riots, mass protests, lynchings etc is what Pakistanis need to be concerned about.

If it wasn't for funds, loans and investments Pakistan gets from mushrik countries and organisations, Pakistan would have been bankrupt a long time ago.
The biggest hope of economic well-being and progress is funded by mushriks. Most of the money owed by Pakistan is owed to mushriks.
So it could well be argued that technically, all of the money the government spends isn't yours at all.

Seriously?!!

It's not even worth a response but i am so shocked that I've to acknowledge it.

That's the same argument I've seen Hindus make on this forum against Muslims mocking our religious practices calling us backwards and you're making the same.

Well, whatever. You're free to your opinions.

I have said enough on the matter, anymore is just bickering.

Have a nice night yall

This religion based PR obsessed current regime of clowns has all the money and dedication to build religious places but has no money, time or dedication to solve the economic problems faced by poor people of Pakistan on daily basis. The next target of this regime of clowns will be to start planing building religious places/temples and whatever for the rest of 4200 religions in the world after these clown have pulled off a gurdawara and a mandir for their sh1tty international PR campaign catering to religious buffoonery.

I dont think there are any hindus in islamabad area. This is just a stupid gimmick by this incompetent govt. This money could well have been spent on otjer important stuff. If the govt cares that much about minorities then help the poor hindus in sindh and thar. With every passing day PTI is becoming a joke and we r realizing they are bigger morons than PMLN and PPP.

I have lived part of my life in twin cities.. and there are no hindus but already tons of deserted temples in Rawalpindi from decades, simply because no hindus existed.
If only worship is desired than one can go to one of those Rawalpindi mandirs.

It will bring in investment and prove to the world that Pakistani Muslims are tolerant of other faiths, which we are.

Building temples and mandirs is not new, Muhammad Bin Qasim built many temples with Hajaj bin Yousaf,s permission and grants. But, you know how Muhammad bin Qasim is remembered in India and among Hindus.
There is nothing wrong in building temples and Churches if there is a demand and necessity, but only for PR it is wrong to use money of Muslim majority nation for such ventures.
There is also a symbolic significance, it is "Islam" "Abad" city of Islam.
Islam doesn't stop you to be good with your non muslim citizens. But, their needs are difderent hindus of sindh are in poor shape they are migrating to India giving you bad name. You are not doing anything to stop that.
On the other hand, this government abolishing subsidy on Hajj, it cause frustration among masses.
Our government must think on these lines. People do compare government's behaviour towards different faiths.

Pakistan capital to get Hindu temple, crematorium

The Hindu community living in the Pakistan capital will finally be getting a proper temple, allowing them to offer their religious rituals without having to travel out of this city anymore, besides a crematorium - the first in the city.

A simple ground breaking ceremony was held in Islamabad's H-9 sector area, allocating at least 4 kanal land for the construction of the first proper Hindu temple of the capital.

Parliamentary Secretary on Human Rights Lal Chand Malhi, performed the ceremony. He said the Hindu population in the capital has been increasing considerably in the past two decades, making it important to make a temple for them to worship in.

سن کرمحمد بن قاسم نے خلیفہ سے بذریعہ خط کے استصواب کیا اور جو اب آنے پر اعلان کردیا کہاپنے مندروں میں آزادانہ پوجا پاٹ کریں، سرکاری مال گزاری میں سے تین روپیہ فی صدی برہمنوں کے لیے الگ خزانے میں جمع کیا، اس روپیہ کو برہمن جس وقت چاہیں اپنے مندروں کی مرمت اور ضروری سامان کے لیے خزانہ سے لے سکتے ہیں۔ پھر سب سے بڑے پنڈت کو رانا کا خطاب دے کر ان کو امورمذہبی کا مہتمم اور افسر مقرر کردیا۔

Hope you can read it. I had read it in urdu translation of Chachnama, fortunately it is available online in this article too.
