Babri masjid dispute - courts decision

finally today the courts verdict is out. according to the honourable high courts judgement the disputed ram janam bhoomi - babari masjid land should be divided equally among all the three parties viz. sunny waqf board,ram lalla and nirmohi akharha.the main place where idols of lord rama are now placed ,it should be regarded as the real ram janam bhoomi and it should be given to the Hindus only.
now we all should respect the courts decision.this decision is the victory of the democratic system of india where all persons of all religions are regarded and treated equally.
the best part of the story is that today almost all the political parties are against any type of protest or violence  against this decision and which is a very healthy sign for our country.
i really appreciate the stand of bhartiya janta party ( BJP ).rss and vishav hindu parishad on this issue .this is the first time after so long when these parties are showing so much patience and maturity on this issue. unfortunately had this stand been shown earlier many lives had been saved. well better late than never.
Indian political system is progressing and now its progressing in a better way. may all the political parties think like this in future and than only we can hope to become a super power .

Ram janam bhoomi-babri masjid issue..is it really too difficult to solve ?

Honorable supreme court of India put stay on the high court judgment and directed both parties to try to get some solution out of the court before 28th of September.

Now the question arises is it really so simple ?

Can a dispute which is there for almost 60 years can be settled in just 7 days?

Every one has its own opinion on this issue whether its Muslim personal law board ,Baabri masjid action committee,RSS,Bhartiya janta party ,Vishav Hindu parishad,etc all have conflicting stands and no one wants to compromise.

I think this issue which gave birth to so many massacre, so many riots,has more importance for a common man than these selfish political parties,after all its the common man who suffers maximum from these riots
and irony is ...
nobody cares for this common man.

And as a common man i think i have no more interest in this deadly dispute what i want is a solution so that peace can be prevailed and there wont be anymore bloodshed on the name of mandir and masjid and everybody can live happily and peacefully in his own motherland.

Coming again to the basic issue .
It is a dispute about a land which had a mosque built over it before 1992 named babri masjid.which according to records was there since 16th century built by mughal emperor baabar.
so according to Muslims it is babri masjid
but Hindus claim that this place was the real birth place of lord Rama so they call it Ram janam bhoomi.
so in broader way this is the dispute about a land claimed to be the birth place of lord Rama by Hindus and a simple mosque by Muslims.
i donot know why but i am really surprised why and how this small issue was not solved in these 60 years.
yes it is really a very simple issue.
I am a Muslim and knows a lot about my religion . A mosque is a place where we Muslims offer prayers .It can be built at any place and leaving apart certain mosques in makka and madina ( Saudi Arabia) the geographical importance of every mosque is the same .only we give certain labels to our mosques like jama masjid or simple masjids. so in simple terms we have to offer namaaz( prayer) and that's it that is the only purpose of a mosque.

so if namaaz is offered in baabri masjid or some masjid build some distance away from it ..its the same we dont have any affection to that particular place AS FAR AS RELIGION ISLAM IS CONCERNED.and shifting a mosque to some other place because of some reason is something done regularly in Islamic nations.it is and it can not be anti Islamic in any way.( as far as my knowledge is concerned )

now coming to Hindus if they claim its ram janam bhoomi. why so much research or survey's and suspicion on that.
if they think like that we should respect their belief.and it should be recognized in that way only.
so if any party or government really think positively and seriously about solving this issue it can be solved
YES AYODHYA ISSUE CAN BE SOLVED
Islam believe in communal harmony .its the religion of peace and universal brotherhood. and here in this case just shifting the place for mosque is not a very big issue ( as far as religious point of view ) and just think how much big help it will be for our nation .so in the national interest i request all my Muslim brothers to give their opinions regarding this issue and if they feel the same olet the world know .
after all Islam is the religion of peace not terror.
