Secular Muslims should counter Zakir Naik with appropriate arguments

Excerpts

his connection with Wahhabism-Salafism is self-evident from his sting adherence to the Salafi clergy while justifying the vile practices of the medieval era like child marriage, sex slavery, self-supremacist religiosity and most deplorably the suicide attack as ‘war tactic’. His Wahhabi orientation is also corroborated by his being a frequent state guest in the Saudi Kingdom, which only welcomes the preachers of its own state religion — Wahhabism.

:
Most regrettably, in this case, the Article 25 of the Indian Constitution allowing the profession and propagation of one’s faith has been brazenly misused. This article allows us to 'profess, practise and propagate our religion' not to denigrate others’ faith traditions or run down all other sects and denominations of our religion.
It goes beyond saying that ‘profession, practice and propagation’ of a religion only imply the right to declare and preach one's faith freely and openly. How come it can be a justification for one’s blatant denigration of other faiths? It is neither permissible in our Indian constitution, nor in Islam under any circumstance.
Ironically, while the likes of Zakir Naik fully enjoy the Article 25 in India, they preach religio-fascism, supremacism and elimination of all other religions from the Muslim world.
:
Sufi organisations in India like the AIUMB will have to engage in a more genuine counter-extremism work. Instead of making it a sectarian slugfest, they must confront Naik on his exclusivist, chauvinistic, bigoted and inflammatory statements extolling Osama-bin-Laden, exhorting Muslims for terrorism, reviling the propagation of other religions, justifying sex slavery, death penalty of apostasy, child marriage, and destruction of cultural and religious structures such as the Buddhas of Bamiyan and desecration of the Prophet’s tomb in Madina. These are highly relevant questions that must not be skipped. And this is how the mainstream liberal Muslims should react to anyone who tacitly or openly supports Naik on these ideological grounds.

A secular Muslim is an oxymoron.

Ya right. Let us first hear you condemn those violent sons of cows who beat up women, flog Dalits and lynch Muslim men for possessing "beef". Go on, let us hear at least a peep.

Yes! The pieceful avoid pigs and dogs, don't kill them. They also love donkeys and camels. Cow lovers, on the other hand, throw stones at street dogs and watch emanciated cows scavenging on streets and getting maimed and killed by trucks. Kafirs are barbaric......
