After the bumper victory of BJP in Maharashtra, the tone of All India Ekta Forum President and Islamic preacher Maulvi Sajjad Nomani changed. He has apologized for his statement of boycotting Muslims supporting BJP in Maharashtra. Sajjad said that my statement was not against any society or was not a fatwa in any way. Still, if anyone’s sentiments have been hurt, I take back my words and apologize unconditionally. Maulvi Sajjad has written a detailed apology.
Sajjad Nomani said that my statement of boycotting Muslims supporting BJP is much discussed at the moment. This statement of mine is from September 2024, much before the Lok Sabha elections. I had given this statement in response to the questions of many people in a special context. These were those people who were prevented from having their fundamental right to vote in the Lok Sabha elections. This statement of mine was for those who were preventing the common citizen of India from their constitutional right to vote. This statement of mine was not at all for any society nor was it any kind of fatwa. If anyone’s sentiments have been hurt by my statement, I apologize for that.

What did Maulan Sajjad Nomani say?
Before the Maharashtra elections, Maulan Sajjad Nomani had said that we have decided to support the candidates of Maha Vikas Aghadi on 269 seats. In a video, he had appealed not to vote for BJP. He said that you people should boycott BJP. Sajjad said that if someone in your area votes for BJP, then boycott him from everywhere. Turn off his hookah water. Nomani further said that if BJP is defeated in Maharashtra, the Delhi government will not last long. Vote Jihar Markaz and you people should support Maha Vikas Aghadi. Support Uddhav, Sharad, Rahul and Nana Patole. There was a huge uproar after Sajjad made this statement.
