Indian-origin investor defends Laura Loomer on ‘Islamophobia’: ‘It was my confrontation…’

Indian-origin investor defends Laura Loomer on 'Islamophobia': 'It was my confrontation...'

Indian-origin venture capitalist Asha Jadeja Motwani has defended Donald Trump aide Laura Loomer’s views on ‘Islamophobia’ and said that “fantasizing about any ideology that calls for your murder” is normal and not a phobia. Motwani said she was confronted by a young man distributing Quran, who told her to her face that if she did not convert he would have to kill her. Motwani said the incident occurred in downtown Palo Alto. Loomer’s visit to India to attend a media conclave in New Delhi was widely criticized as she had said terrible things against India and people of Indian origin in the past. At the conclave, she apologized for her previous social media posts and said that she should have said some hateful things, however she said that she would not take back the words she said against H-1B workers in the US because she stands for America First. On his ‘Islamophobia’, Loomer said that Islamophobia is not real and that the faith clearly calls for the killing of non-Muslims. “Everyone who is not Muslim should honestly be afraid of this ideology,” he said. Loomer said that Islam is “a cancer to the world” and that there should be no Muslim elected politicians in America. Speaking about Pakistan, Loomer said, “Mostly all terrorism is coming from Pakistan.”Loomer continued her anti-Islamic statements on social media as Indian social media users reminded her that Laura said the Taj Mahal, which she was planning to see with her fiancé during her trip to India, was built by a Muslim ruler. Many Indian academics and scholars condemned Laura Loomer’s Islamophobia, leading to an uproar on social media. “You are neither a Hindu nor an Indian. Keep your poison to yourself. I am an Indian, and we love and respect all religions.” This is secular India,” Indian activist and professor Rakhi Tripathi posted, reacting to Laura Loomer’s post. “Read the Quran. There is no such thing as secularism or coexistence in Islam. If there was secularism in Muslim countries, then why are Muslim countries governed by Sharia? Do you want India to become a Muslim country? There are 207 million Muslims in India. That’s enough to conquer a country. Every freedom-loving nation must wake up to the threat of Islam before it is too late. Save yourself,” Laura Loomer responded.

लखनऊ के बड़ा इमामबाड़ा में हिजाब को लेकर विवाद, डिजिटल क्रिएटर के वीडियो के बाद बहस तेज

बड़ा इमामबाड़ा घूमने आए एक डिजिटल क्रिएटर का वीडियो सोशल मीडिया पर तेजी से वायरल हो रहा है. इस वीडियो के सामने आने के बाद हिजाब और ड्रेस कोड को लेकर नया विवाद शुरू हो गया है. डिजिटल क्रिएटर मान्या सिंह ने अपने सोशल मीडिया अकाउंट पर वीडियो शेयर कर दावा किया है कि वह अपने दोस्तों के साथ लखनऊ घूमने आई थीं. इसी दौरान उन्होंने बड़ा इमामबाड़ा देखने का फैसला किया. मान्या के मुताबिक, उन्होंने टिकट लेकर परिसर में प्रवेश किया था, लेकिन प्रवेश के समय ड्रेस कोड या हिजाब के संबंध में कोई निर्देश नहीं दिया गया था।

इमामबाड़ा परिसर में हिजाब को लेकर बहस
मान्या सिंह ने अपने वीडियो में आरोप लगाया कि जैसे ही वह इमामबाड़ा परिसर के अंदर पहुंचीं, वहां मौजूद कुछ लोगों ने उनसे कहा कि उन्हें हिजाब के बिना यहां घूमने की इजाजत नहीं है. जब उन्होंने इस पर सवाल उठाया तो लोगों ने उन्हें घूरकर देखा और कहा कि यहां बिना सिर ढके रहना मना है. मान्या का कहना है कि कुछ लोगों ने उन्हें परिसर छोड़ने के लिए भी कहा। उन्होंने बताया कि जब उन्होंने हिजाब पहनने से इनकार कर दिया तो वहां मौजूद लोगों ने अपनी टीम के एक सदस्य को भेजा और उन्हें कहीं से स्कार्फ लाकर सिर ढकने को कहा. मान्या के मुताबिक, कुछ देर बाद एक शख्स सीधे उनके पास आया और उन्हें अपनी शर्ट के बटन बंद करने की सलाह दी. उन्होंने इस पर कड़ी आपत्ति जताई और कहा कि यह उनका निजी पहनावा है और उन्हें क्या पहनना चाहिए, यह तय करने का अधिकार किसी को नहीं है.

पोस्टरों को लेकर भी आरोप लगाए गए
मान्या सिंह ने अपने वीडियो में यह भी दावा किया कि इमामबाड़ा परिसर के बाहर अमेरिका और इजराइल के खिलाफ पोस्टर लगाए गए हैं. उनका कहना है कि वहां मौजूद कुछ लोगों ने उनसे इन पोस्टरों पर पैर रखकर अंदर जाने को कहा. हालांकि मान्या ने ऐसा करने से इनकार कर दिया. उनका कहना है कि इस घटना के बाद वहां का माहौल और असहज हो गया.

मौलाना कल्बे जव्वाद ने नियमों का पालन करने की बात कही
इस पूरे मामले पर शिया धर्मगुरु मौलाना कल्बे जवाद का भी बयान सामने आया है. उन्होंने कहा कि हर धार्मिक स्थल के अपने नियम और परंपराएं होती हैं, जिनका सम्मान करना जरूरी है. मौलाना कल्बे जव्वाद ने कहा कि इमामबाड़ा एक धार्मिक स्थल है और यहां बिना सिर ढके घूमना मना है. इसलिए अगर किसी को हिजाब पहनने के लिए कहा जाए तो इसमें कुछ भी गलत नहीं है. उन्होंने यह भी कहा कि जिस तरह कई मंदिरों में मुसलमानों के प्रवेश पर प्रतिबंध है, उसी तरह अलग-अलग धार्मिक स्थलों के अपने नियम हैं और वहां आने वाले लोगों को उनका पालन करना चाहिए।

Qatar Eid Al Fitr holiday 2026: Qatar News: Announces 7-day Eid Al Fitr 2026 holiday for public sector employees | world News

Qatar News: 7-day Eid Al Fitr 2026 holiday announced for public sector employees
Qatari government employees to get 7 days holiday for Eid Al Fitr 2026 / Image: Peninsular Qatar

Qatar has officially declared a seven-day Eid Al Fitr holiday for public sector employees, offering government employees an extended holiday to celebrate the end of Ramadan.According to the Amiri Diwan, ministries, government agencies and public institutions will observe the Eid holiday from Monday, March 17 to Sunday, March 23, 2026, with work resuming on Monday, March 24.The extended leave allows thousands of government sector employees to celebrate the festival with family and participate in cultural programs and celebrations across the country.Eid al Fitr marks the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, a period of fasting, prayer and reflection enjoyed by Muslims around the world.

Who is included in the Qatar Eid Al Fitr holidays?

This directive of the Amiri Diwan covers a wide range of the country’s administrative and public infrastructure.

  • Government bodies: All federal ministries and state-run departments will remain closed.
  • Public authorities: This includes public health institutions, municipal offices, and educational regulatory bodies.
  • School Holidays: Schools across Qatar generally follow the public sector calendar, meaning students can expect a significant break from their studies.
  • Private Sector: While private companies are mandated to provide at least three days of paid leave, many companies in Qatar choose to provide up to 5 days of leave or leave in sync with the government program to maintain operational harmony.

Expected Eid Al Fitr 2026 Date

Astronomical forecasts suggest that Eid al-Fitr in 2026 is likely to fall on Friday, March 20, although the exact date will be confirmed only after the Shawwal crescent is officially sighted.In Qatar and the entire Gulf region, Islamic holidays are determined using the Hijri lunar calendar, meaning that officials announce the final date shortly before the festival begins.If the projected date holds, Eid celebrations will fall within the government holiday period, giving public sector employees a chance to enjoy the festival during the extended leave.

What about the banking and financial sector in Qatar?

While the government holiday schedule for ministries and public bodies has been confirmed, the work schedule for banks and financial institutions will be announced separately.In Qatar, financial institutions generally follow instructions issued by the Qatar Central Bank, which sets operating schedules during public holidays.These announcements usually come closer to Eid after the moon sighting is confirmed.

Eid Al Fitr celebrations across Qatar

Eid Al Fitr is one of the most important celebrations in Qatar and the wider Muslim world.The day traditionally begins with special Eid prayers held at mosques and places of worship, followed by meeting with family, a festive meal, and almsgiving. Many residents also give Zakat al-Fitr, a form of charity aimed at helping those in need celebrate the holiday.Throughout the country, the Eid period is marked as follows:

  • Large family gatherings and social outings
  • Special Shopping Promotions and Eid Bazaar
  • Cultural programs and festive events
  • Residents take advantage of extended holidays to make travel plans

Because Qatar’s weekend falls on Friday and Saturday, additional government holidays create consecutive week-long days off for many public employees.

UAE residents keeping a close eye on Eid holidays

Holiday announcements in Qatar are often closely watched by residents across the Gulf, including the United Arab Emirates, where the Eid holiday is also one of the longest public holidays of the year.Authorities in the UAE generally confirm official Eid holidays through the Federal Authority for Government Human Resources, which declares a public sector holiday after the Eid moon sighting is confirmed.In recent years, the Eid Al Fitr holidays in the United Arab Emirates have typically lasted between four and five days, depending on how the festival coincides with the weekend.Many expatriates across the Gulf use the Eid holiday to travel internationally or visit family, making it one of the busiest travel periods of the year at regional airports.With Qatar already confirming a week-long public sector holiday, now residents across the region will be watching closely to see how other Gulf countries structure their Eid holidays for 2026.
