Masood Bhatti | 7 years ago | Reply No one has right to pass any comments Atiya. We believe every thing is created by ALLAH as a muslim. So we must obey command that Indians are also created by ALLAH. They have equal right to move everywhere on earth and earn. You have not been given any right to restrict them. Religion tolerance is very important. Sport is sport. If they win, we must appreciate if they win. When we win, we must be humble to ALLAH.
