The Supreme Court has refused to cancel the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025, although the court has completely banned some provisions of Waqf Act and completely banned one. The reaction of Maulana Arshad Madni, president of Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind, has come to light on this decision. He has welcomed the interim relief decision on three important disputed sections of the Waqf law. Maulana Madani said after the Supreme Court’s decision that justice is still alive.
Maulana Madani said through X post, “Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind Waqf welcomes the interim relief decision on three important disputed sections of the law. This interim relief has changed our hope that justice is still alive. Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind will continue its legal and democratic struggle till the end of this black law.
Conspiracy to snatch religious freedom of Muslims – Maulana Madani
They said, “This new Waqf law is a direct attack on the constitution of the country which not only gives equal rights to citizens and minorities but also gives them complete religious freedom.” This law is a dangerous conspiracy to take away the religious freedom of Muslims, so Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind has challenged the Waqf Act 2025 in the Supreme Court. We are sure that the Supreme Court ends this black law and will give us full constitutional justice, Insha Allah.
The Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind Waqf law welcomes the interim relief decision on the three important disputed sections.
This interim relief has changed our hope that justice is still alive. Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind continues its legal and democratic struggle until this black law is over…– Arshad Madani (@Arshadmadani007) September 15, 2025
