Darul Uloom issues fatwa after Muslim women perform aarti

New Delhi: Darul Uloom Deoband, on Saturday, issued a 'fatwa' against Muslim women who performed Aarti on Diwali in Varanasi.

The Islamic seminary said that worshipping any other God than Allah is Un-Islamic and anyone doing so no more remains Muslim.

"If anyone worships any god except Allah, they don't remain Muslim," said Darul Uloom.

It was in the recent past when Darul Uloom asked Muslims to not post their pictures on any social media platform like WhatsApp, Facebook while terming it 'un-Islamic'.

Justifying the move, Shahnawaz Qadri, Darul Uloom Deoband, said, ''Unnecessary uploading of pictures on social media is wrong. Fatwa of Darul Uloom Deoband is appropriate.''
