Militant Hindus spreading hatred and committing crimes against Muslims should be expelled from the Gulf, a Saudi Arabian scholar has said, amid a growing number of hate crimes by Hindu supremacists against India’s Muslim minority. Such attacks have increased during the spread of the coronavirus pandemic as Hindus loyal to the ruling far-right BJP government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi blame Muslims for the spread of the virus. Modi was barred from the US over his role in the 2002 Gujarat riots that killed over 1,000 Muslims. His supporters have dubbed the virus “corona jihad” and spread the false allegation that the pandemic is a conspiracy by Muslims to infect and poison Hindus. Sheikh Abidi Zahrani has actually reacted to this hostility by prompting federal governments in the Middle East, specifically the Gulf, to secure down on any individual revealing compassion with extremist Hindu ideological background. Writing on his main twitter account, Zahrani shared the “Send_Hindutva_Back_home” hashtag: “I recommend to all appreciated fans to note all militant Hindus that are operating in the GCC and also spreading out hate versus #Islam #Muslims or our cherished Prophet [Muhammad, peace be upon him] under this #hashtag #Send _Hindutva _ Back_home.” I propose to all respected followers to list all militant Hindus who are working in the GCC and spreading hate against #Islam #Muslims or our be loved Prophet Mhmd PBUH under this #hashtag #Send_Hindutva_Back_home show a copies of their bio. — م/ عبيدي الزهراني (@ZahraniAbidi) April 12, 2020 Gulf states host millions of #Indians some of whom are infected #COVID__19 are treated free of charge regardless of their faith While #Hindutva #Terrorists gangs are committing crimes against #Muslims citizens — م/ عبيدي الزهراني (@ZahraniAbidi) April 12, 2020 In reaction to his tweet, fans shared screenshots of people and also teams spreading out Hindu supremacist ideological background called Hinduvta from areas in the Middle East or while functioning for Gulf- based business.
