LEAGUE ASSAULTS ON SATYARTI1A PRAEASU
against repetition of a centuries-old pursuit of barbarity
and sin.
It is not right or proper, nor is it healthy, that anyone
should run away with the false idea that the ban on
Satyartha Prakash,
twice imposed at the instance of the

direct defiance of Islam and the Prophet. And they did so in
the name of Islam and its Prophet ! And what is still worse,
that sinful act passes for service of the ''faithful" in the cause
of "Islam" and its Arabian founder in the opinion of the many.

unthinking Musalman intelligentsia and the misguided masses
of the people. The sin fascinates and corrupts them and
influences them to rally round the "Muslim" League flag.
There are now in India Musalman scholars, with claim to
