Pakistani organization formed a team of 40 people in Rajasthan to target supporters of former BJP Spokesperson Nupur Sharma

Some time recently we move advance, it would be worth reviewing that after the shocking kill of Kanhaiya Lal, the National Investigation Agency and Anti-Terrorist Squad, examining the kill case, had revealed that the Pakistani organization Dawat-e-Islami had formed a group of 40 individuals in Rajasthan to target individuals who have communicated support for the former BJP Representative Nupur Sharma.

A list of targets was made by the fear monger outfits that were to be executed in Taliban style. As per reports, the 40 individuals connected to Dawat-e-Islami were given the assignment of “teaching a lesson” to those who distribute posts on social media in back of Nupur Sharma. These individuals were related with Dawat-e-Islami for over a year. The examination organizations found out around the trick by checking the call subtle elements of psychological militants Riyaz Attari and Mohammad Ghous, who were captured for brutally murdering Hindu tailor Kanhaiya Lal in Udaipur for a social media post supporting Nupur Sharma.

Over 2000 donation boxes for Dawat-e-Islami found in Ahmedabad, money collected to brainwash Muslim youth

The Islamic furnish Dawat-e-Islami’s operations are not new, and reports approximately its part in radicalising and brainwashing Indian Muslims have long been examined. It was too expressed that the bunch has collected gifts from border states to assist support its operations. In reality, in February this year, media reported that over 2000 gift boxes for the Pakistan-based Islamic association have been found in Ahmedabad itself.

Maulana Usmani accused in the Kishan Bharwad murder case runs a centre of Dawat-e-Islami

As per the report, the money collected within the gift boxes is sent to Pakistan from where it is steered back to India by means of Dubai beneath the pretense of giving Islamic instruction to Muslims but it is utilized to brainwash them instep. Maulana Usmani, whose title had come up as an blamed in the Kishan Bharwad murder case, is accepted to be running a middle of Dawat-e-Islami.

How Dawat-e-Islami was started in India

Dawat-e-Islami is a Pakistan-based Sunni Islamic association that runs a few Islamic educational institutions and online courses in Pakistan and numerous other nations. Dawat-e-Islami, which suggests “Invitation to Islam,” was built up in 1981 by Maulana Abu Bilal Muhammad Ilyas Attari. As per reports, a assignment of Ulema from Pakistan gone by India in 1989.

They started talks to open a department of Dawat-e-Islami in India. Utilizing Tablighi Jamaat as an illustration, it was chosen by then-members of Dawat-e-Islami to begin a comparative organization in India.

In 2004, Maulana Ilyas Qadri visited Mumbai and founded a branch, with Qari Shakir Ali Noori serving as the first India head. Following a disagreement with his counterpart in Pakistan, Qari Shakir Ali Noori broke away from the parent group after a few years. His faction was renamed Sunni Dawat-e-Islami, while the second faction continued to operate under the banner of Dawat-e-Islami, with Mufti Abdul Halim Ashrafi of Nagpur as its head.

The organisation’s headquarters too was shifted from Mumbai and Delhi to Nagpur.

Following the divide, Maulana Ilyas Qadri returned to India, going by Mumbai, Nagpur, Delhi, Kanpur, Ahmedabad, and Bareilly. Presently a few parts of the nation have branches of the Dawat-e-Islami. Each year, Dawat-e-Islami organizes an yearly Ijtima (occasion) to connect more individuals. A huge number of individuals go to these occasions each year. The radical bunch has since extended into a few countries around the world from its base in India.

It started as a revivalist bunch impacted by Sufi convictions, but it has since changed into an radical Islamist gather with obvious ties to terrorism. 

Recently in 2020, one of the psychological militants who were included in the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris named Dawat-e-Islami originator Ilyas Attari as his guide. A Pakistani psychological militant named Md Ashraf, who was captured in Delhi in October 2021 was too found to be connected with this association.

Dawat-e-Islami brainwashing Indian Muslims into Jihad, offering online courses that glorify Pakistan

Outstandingly, after the kill of Kanhaiya Lal, when Rajasthan police found in its test that the killers of Kanhaiyalal had joins with Dawat-e-Islami, Pakistan invalidated the claim. Within the month of October, in any case, India Nowadays made stunning disclosures that uncovered the lies of Pakistan. As per its report, Dawat-e-Islami has utilized innovation as a weapon to thrust its Jihadist philosophy and inculcate contempt into the hearts of Indian Muslims. 

The official website of Dawat-e-Islami provides a number of online programmes on religious subjects. Notably, the organisation is operational in Bangladesh, Canada, Hong Kong, the UK, and the USA but not in India.

However, India Today in its report claimed that when its investigative reporter applied for one of Dawat-e-Islami’s courses under a fake name, Rashid Ahmed, he received a response within hours over mail.

Notably, online classes were claimed to be strictly audio-based while the medium was Skype. 

The files sent to Rashid Ahmed (the pseudonym used by the reporter) had content glorifying Pakistan and manipulating Indian Muslims to contribute towards strengthening Pakistan as a bastion of Islam.

In its pre-recorded audio messages, Dawat-e-Islami urged Indian Muslims to confront infidels (Kafirs), and even resort to violence for this cause.

Reportedly, the content provided by Dawat-e-Islami also championed sacrifices (Qurbani) in the name of Din-e-Islam.
