19-year-old Imam who was killed in Haryana was praying for Hindu-Muslim unity; Video viral
Can be seen saying “Hindu-Muslim baith ke khaye thaali mei, Aisa Hindustan bana de ya Allah”
Gurgaon, Haryana: The heart-rending incident that unfolded in Gurgaon, where a mosque was set ablaze resulting in the death of a young deputy imam, Maulana Hafiz Saad, has taken a new turn as a video of him praying for Hindu-Muslim unity has emerged on social media. The video has been widely shared across various social media platforms, drawing attention to Saad's message of harmony for the country.
In the viral video, 19-year-old Maulana Saad is seen reciting a heartfelt prayer, calling for solidarity and amity between Hindus and Muslims in India. His words resonate with a poignant appeal:
“Hindu-Muslim baith ke khaye thaali mei/ Aisa Hindustan bana de ya Allah.” (Where Hindus and Muslims break bread on the same plate, Make such an India, O Allah.)
The touching video showcases Saad's commitment to promoting communal harmony, despite the tragic events that later unfolded. The young deputy imam served at the Anjuman Jama Masjid in Gurgaon's Sector 57, a thriving corporate hub housing multinational companies.
The video has captured the hearts of many, with netizens expressing grief and admiration for Saad's message in the wake of his untimely demise.
The incident took place amidst communal tensions in the region, with clashes breaking out in the Nuh district of Haryana just a day before the mosque attack. The clashes resulted in the death of six individuals, including two home guards, and left several others injured.
Haryana DGP P.K. Agrawal confirmed that 116 people have been arrested so far in the case while 90 others are detained for questioning. He also added that an SIT has been formed to investigate the violence that gripped the Muslim-dominated Nuh and later spread in other parts of the state.

Porsche car crash case exposed systemic corruption: Pune police commissioner
Pune (PTI): The Porsche car crash case exposed "systemic corruption," but the Pune Police have successfully uncovered the nexus behind the replacement of the accused juvenile's blood samples with those of his mother, Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar said on Wednesday.
The case made national headlines after the high-end car allegedly driven by the 17-year-old boy in an inebriated state mowed down motorcycle-borne IT professionals Anish Awadhiya and Ashwini Costa in the Kalyani Nagar area on May 19 last year.
"Last year’s Porsche car crash case sparked widespread discussions about Pune’s deteriorating social culture, alleged police corruption, and several other issues. Amid all the criticism, one positive aspect stood out: the case exposed systemic corruption.
"It also demonstrated how the police, working within the same system, managed to uncover the entire nexus behind the replacement of the juvenile’s blood samples with those of his mother," Kumar said while addressing Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan, an initiative aimed at raising awareness against drug addiction, organised at Modern College.
He added that the juvenile has been released since he was a minor.
"However, his mother has remained in jail for over a year, and his father continues to be behind bars. Doctors from Sassoon Hospital and others involved are also still in jail," Kumar said, adding that one mistake by a child, and an attempt by his parents to cover it up, destroyed an entire family.
He said the police will follow up on this case until every guilty person is punished.
Kumar also appealed to students to stay away from intoxicating substances and drugs.
"You are not only endangering your own life but also putting your entire family at risk," he said, urging the youth not to fall prey to harmful addictions.
"Instead, stand strong and act as a force to ensure that drug abuse is curbed in your surroundings. We assure you of full police support," he added.
He further stated that if youth from all colleges unite and decide to end this menace, "the day is not far when not even one gram of drug will be sold in the city".
The investigation into the car crash had revealed that the juvenile's blood samples were replaced with those of his mother.
The roles of Dr Ajay Taware, head of the forensic department, Medical Officer Shreehari Halnor, and a hospital staffer came under scrutiny.
While the mother is currently out on bail, the juvenile’s father, Sassoon Hospital doctors Taware and Halnor, staffer Atul Ghatkamble, two middlemen, Ashpak Makandar and Amar Gaikwad, and others remain in jail for the alleged blood sample swap.
