Maulana, agla sawal Tamil Nadu se hai Maulana Iqbal Umri sahab ka. unhon ne aap se poocha hai ke "amanat ejtijah kya hota hai? chand log is ko bari baat samajhte hain." is ke baray mein bataein. ejtijah chahe amanat ho ya ghair amanat, Islam mein hai hi nahi. ejtijah ka concept Islam mein hai hi nahi. amanat ho ya partashaddud, dono halaton mein woh ghair Islami hai. is ka saboot yeh hai ke Rasool Allah ke zamane mein Kaaba mein, jo ke sab se muqaddas masjid hai, goya is mein kai so ki tadad mein but rakhe hue thay. but ke Rasool Allah ne kabhi protest nahi kiya, kabhi ejtijah nahi kiya.

koi saboot is baat ka nahi hai ke Rasool Allah ne Sahaba ko le kar ke wahan koi protest kiya ho. yeh toh bilkul Islam se koi bhi ta'alluq nahi hai. chahe amanat ho, tab bhi woh ghair Islami hai. amanat ho, tab bhi woh ghair Islami hai. Maulana, agla sawal Raipur se hai Idrees sahab ka.
