The Nashik #TCS Jihad Case: You know how the women were groomed?
One of the victim's family members told me how this woman was slowly manipulated into following Islamic practices. How?
1. This once modern girl, who used to wear jeans and short clothes, started wearing full-sleeve salwar suits.
2. The face cover she used to protect herself from the sun began to be tied like a hijab.
3. During the 40-day Ramadan period, she would tell her family that she would have lunch at the office and would come home only to lock herself in her room. She would then eat at a specific time.
4. She stopped going to the temple, stopped putting a tilak on her forehead, and started using words like "InshaAllah".
5. She goes to the prayer room in the office and allegedly offers Namaz a number of times a day.
6. Offering namaz would get her a raise and not the pooja. Also, she was asked to stop wearing lipstick and follow Islamic practices.
Later, it came out that she was being manipulated by Tousif Attar, Danish Sheikh, and Nida Khan in the office. When confronted, she said Danish loved her blindly and that she would do anything for him.
It was only after her family showed her pictures with other women that she broke down and complained. Otherwise, she was even okay with converting to Islam. Even after knowing about the marriage of Danish, she was ok with it.
She had come to believe that the Shivling was a genital, that Kanha (Krishna) was a womaniser, and that Draupadi was a woman of loose character. Such shallow knowledge of our own religion makes our daughters vulnerable to this propaganda. The strong conviction about Jannat and Jahannum is another such factor.
Anyway, the TCS case has triggered so much outrage only because it happened in a big city, in a big corporate office, a place where no one had imagined it could occur.
It’s not always the illiterate people who fall for Jihad; it’s the so-called educated elites as well.
I spoke at length about the TCS case as well as other such patterns with @PramaTimes. Attaching the link to the conversation in my next tweet, also watch and share.
