The game is a religion in itself and there is no place for such debate, Mohammad Shami is playing for the country, it is also a prayer in itself, now he should play fasting or play without fasting, if he keeps fast, he will not be able to give 100 percent. Now Reliajan has become of two ways, Islam of Allah and Islam of one Mulla.

It is important to clarify that in Islam, Rosa, Namaz, Dan (Zakat) and pilgrimage (Haj) are the obligation prescribed by Allah and it is necessary for every Muslim to fulfill them. If a Muslim denies any of them after being an adult or intentionally neglects, he is definitely a sinner and his position as a Muslim can be in doubt, whether it is Mohammed Shami or any other Muslim.

At the same time, Muslim religious leader Maulana Qari Isaac Gora has defended Shami. Gora said that cricketer Mohammed Shami was seen drinking juice on the ground. Since then some people are trolling them and claiming that they have committed a great sin. I want to clarify such people that everyone has their own circumstances.

Gora said, “If a person is unable to fast due to a compulsion, such as in the case of a professional player, Islam allows to break the fast. The important thing is that the reason for this should be under the guidelines of Sharia.” He emphasized that the decision to break the fast should not be taken in haste by outsiders.

Gora said, “This issue is between Allah and Shami. No one needs to play the role of a judge in this case.” Swami Chidanand Saraswati, president of Parmarth Niketan on Shami’s case, said, “People who are unable to fast due to their circumstances do not mean that their faith is over. They may have other forms of devotion or service, such as their commitment to the nation. It is also a form of worship.”

He admitted that patriotism, dedication to their work and self-sacrifice to the country can be seen as a work of devotion, which is equally valuable in the eyes of God. He said, “To contribute to the progress of the nation, dedicate our time and effort to the good of the country, is nothing short of worship. We should respect these efforts, like we respect those who perform religious rituals.”
