New Delhi:
Indian Muslim groups like the All India Muslim Personal Law Board
(AIMPLB) Monday said they agreed with the stay on the Allahabad
High Court verdict, that divided the site of the razed Babri
Masjid in Ayodhya into three parts, which the Supreme Court termed
as "strange".
"That it was a strange judgment, is a very important remark made
by the Supreme Court. The high court judgment, which was termed as
a good judgment because it tried to satisfy all parties, was
questionable," S.Q.R. Ilyas, member of the executive council of
AIMPLB, told IANS.
The Supreme Court stayed the September 2010 Allahabad High Court
verdict that had divided the site of the Babri Masjid among the
Sunni Waqf Board, the Nirmohi Akhada and a Hindu party 'Ram Lalla'.
"By directing the partition of the disputed site, the high court
has given an entirely new dimension to the case," the apex court
said Monday.
"It is a rare judgment whose operation has to be stayed," it
added.
Agreeing with the apex court ruling, Abdul Hameed Nomani,
secretary of Jamiat-Ulama-i-Hind, a religious organisation of
Indian Muslims which is also one of the petitioners in the case,
said: "The important question before the court is whether the
country should be ruled on the basis of faith or facts."
"I don't want to comment more on the case since the matter is in
court," he added.
