So Khaled warned SG about Zakhir Naik in 1993 and in 2010 when SG interviewed Zakhir, he begins by calling Zakhir a rockstar. In 2024, SG knows he is getting called out for this, so he covers his tracks by saying he couldn't pin down Zakhir. Any surprise that nobody trusts journalists?
I watched that Video again and he introduced him like Rockstar in the sense of a TV religious preacher. How can it be supportive of him? He was like that for his followers. I watched this Zakir one video and his arguments were very hollow and superfluous. Even in Pakistan, many people objected against him being invited.
@@BharatThatIsIndia Initially Pakistanis were super thrilled for they thought Zakir Naik will present a decorated , dressed up version of islam to the world. He instead started talking about the stuff thats actually written in their texts and that became unbearable to somewhat literate pakistanis :) The interview where he says a man , that isn't aroused after sitting 20 minutes in front of a woman, ceases to be a man , is funny. All this while being interviewed by a pakistani woman tv anchor - the expressions on her face is hilarious.
@@BharatThatIsIndiaI never said SG was supportive of Zakhir. If SG knew Zakhir was poisonous 17 years before interviewing, why does he start by calling him a rockstar but now say he couldn't pin him? If I'm pinning someone, I wouldn't start by calling them a rockstar. Either SG was appeasing then or lying now. It is SG's convenient messaging to pass off as a neutral person that I'm questioning.
Zakir Naik fooled every one, including muslims through his blatent and poisonous lies for a long time. The side effect of that is now islam is exposed and it is out in the open.
Sir, This was the most interesting The Print video (on Indo-Pak anecdotes you keep sharing) that I have watched in a while. What a personality and a worthy tribute!
Mr.SG always makes a point to state secularism in one way or the other... I would appreciate if he be honest enough to state that Secularism is just one way street only for Hindus to own and abide to, Zero onus for others, especially in subcontinent... Perhaps the reference, "Jaan sab ko pyari hoti hai..."😊
A brilliant obituary by SG for a respected fellow professional and dear friend. It requires open hearts and great intellect. May such relationships increase and endure.
I wasn't sure I wanted to watch this video but I am very glad I did. Thank you Shekharji for introducing me to Khaled Ahmed sir, though late on my part.
Wrong....India's victory in the war of 1971 did not "achieve peace" because India did not complete the task! After Bangladesh was liberated Indira Gandhi under pressure from Soviet Union, China and USA did not listen to Gen. Sam Manekshaw who was ready focus on West Pakistan and liberate occupied Kashmir. Had Indira Gandhi followed his advice, the Kashmir problem would have been over once and for all. Unfortunately Pakistan was allowed to breathe and rise again to only conduct terrorism and another war in Kargil. The 1971 war no doubt is a victory but the overall mission was left unaccomplished. Just for analogy had the Russians and Allies not completely eradicated the Nazis and occupied Germany; a ceasefire agreement or peace would have surely let Hitler and Germans re group and continue the war after a few years
"Well looks like a nice guy who read the writing on the wall....but then millions of Indians decades ago would have also read the writing on the wall."
Chapter 8 of Quran is titled "Al-Anfal" which literally means "Spoils of War". The spoils of war includes wealth, men, women and children (to be used as slaves). This chapter was delivered by Mohammed after the battle of Badr, when his Jihadi Sahaaba started bickering over grabbing this or that item from the spoils or loots. So, Muhammad came up with this Sura (chapter) as divine resolution to bickering over the booty. Muhammad wanted his cut as a leader of the newly-formed Muslim tribe. Through this Sura, Muhammad established a 20% cut of the loot as his personal share. But he made it in a ?divine? way, making ?Allah? also a shareholder of that 20%, which Allah certainly never came down to acquire. One can see Muhammad's naked trickery here. Allah does not need to wage war or attack others in greed for loots. What would Allah need the loots for? It is in fact Muhammad who needed the loots. Ibn Ishaq, a famous Arab muslim historian of 7th century records that after butchering 800 Jews of Banu Qurayza tribe: "The apostle sent Sa?d b. Zayd al-Ansari? with some of the captive women of Banu Qurayza to Najd and he sold them for horses and weapons" [Ibn Ishaq, The Life of Muhammad, (translation A Guillaume), Oxford University Press, Karachi, 2004 imprint, p.465]. No man in his senses can accept a man who sells women to buy weapons as a Prophet of God. All muslim invaders to India (Mohammed Qasim, Ghazni, Ghouri etc.) dutifully sent 20% of the loot, men and women slaves to the Caliphs in middle east, as per the teachings of Quran in Sura 8. It is clear that Mohammad was not more than a desert thief and bandit. In fact, he was a leader of a gang of desert thieves and bandits and Quran is his loot manual. One of the reasons of muslim poverty is that, with the decline of Islamic power, the loot business they ran successfully for 1300 years has come to an end.
Those books at 2:34 about artificial neural networks, oil and gas fluid behaviour and microLED are probably not written by this author, a bit of fact checking is needed on this I think...
@@SeshadriVyas Bloopers are edited out, here the editor seems so illiterate he can't differentiate between the work of a political analyst and books of more than one scientist cause they happen to have the same name.
I may have read one or two from Khaled Ahmed if he was published in the Indian Express, as you indicate but you have evoked enough interest for me to buy a book of his if I find one! This is perhaps the best eulogy I have ever heard! What a wonderful friendship this must've been & what a sad loss! 🙏
A superb requiem for your friend and colleague whom you obviously hold in great respect. Very entertaing and 8nsightful for us listeners too to learn of such a man and journalist! You are quite the raconteur when you want ti be.. Thanks for one of your best episodes, please do these kinds more often..
Nope, they couldn't about India. India is a food terrorist country-no one predicted that. In North India, Brahmavad is legalized and Hindus are forced to convert to Brahmavad-no one predicted. Rama, a god of non-vegetarians and killer of Brahmins, will be Brahmanized-no one predicted.
Basically Khalid understand people mentality. Cause and effect. Which majority of Indian journalist not understand. In India many ordinary people understand what effect happening in ground but journalist politician not correct it.
3 of these books seem to be written by a different Khaled Ahmed. One is on LEDs, 2nd on energy equipment and 3rd is on fluid dynamics of Oil and Gas. Unless he led a dual life as a researcher in Fluid Dynamics and Electronics, all the books here should not be attributed to him
How can He glorify this pakistani are a gutsy guy if he apologized for publishing the indian article. And him constantly working about what will happen in India which will never happen as our ideology is different from the barbaric one
Khalid Ahmed was the first cousin of the former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, and both belonged to the Ahmadiyya religion. Since the partition of India, Pakistan has been under the control of the Ahmadiyya Jamaat. Ahmadiyya Jamaat was the brainchild of the Kashmir War of 1947. Similarly, the Indo-Pak War of 1965. Journalists in India are not aware of the issues that are driving the conflict between the two countries.
“He was the first Pakistani I ever met” that’s the problem. I am just astonished that how much Indian media covers Pakistan yet Indian people know very little about the country. Same goes for Pakistan as well, though Pakistani media doesn’t cover India that much. I think people to people contact are the way to move forward.
Indians doesn't really want to connect with Pakistanis. Keep yourself to yourselves. Problem is this Indian joker is obsessed with Pakistan and Pakistanis; and in India we have to tolerate his nonsensical lectures which he loves to give all the time.
Vaah Shekhar! Your eulogy is akin to Jai(Amitabh) pleading Veeru’s (Dharamji) case with Maasi in Sholay. Clearly you respect and admired him but you sugar coated his sycophancy for the Pak Army so well. RIP Khaleed, but more honesty please dear Shekhar!
Joot uperse atha hain, wow what way to defend your dead friend, if godhi media did that you would taken them to shreader. You are one big hippocryptie, with blindness to all things Pakistan and green
This remembrance is more of propaganda of secularism and India than of departed person ..I presume that late was a Muslim by faith but may be shehkar knows better . I feel that India got Zakir Naik wrong later was preaching some kind of version which wanted to incorporate Hindus into the people of book category like Jews and christians which was not to liking if many . Regarding nonsense remarks about Zia , perhaps no body has seen a wiser and more benevolent yet most effective military leader than him in the subcontinent since independence . Manik shah defeated Pakistan in distant front , Zia defeated USSR in their next door and got nukes for Pakistan plus aid . Regarding klashnikov culture and narcotic culture that did not enter Punjab and Sindh till 1985 when junejo an incompetent person became PM . Off course if someone is faraway from his root that endears him to India . . Seculars are marrying males with males so much for their wisdom. India is not moving towards military rule but within three years towards confederation type setup .
@@abhinavchaturvedi9614 No the events in india are moving on that direction , in south india , in punjab , in kashmir and in north troubled region. One major indian political party seems to have reached such settlement of loosening federation with USA in exchange for continuous support for India
😂😂😂😂 ok brother ,hope Pakistan wil continue to get fruits sown by Zia,Your English is good but your facts are sugarcoated like establishment,Teeling false facts. So how u became a wise man one day ,and u get world view to change your mind. Pakistan is suufeering today ,just bcoz of theire individual leaders ,and not by army or politics ,so hope one day Pakistan wil come on right track. Don't worry about India we know how to fixx our politics we have power of vote
Jaan sabko pyaari hoti hai, ye Khaled Ahmed samet sabhi ko pata hai, aur musalmaano mein radicalisation rozana badhta jaa raha hai yeh bhi sab ko pata hai, aur badhane wale FeudalLords ko fayda hai yeh bhi sabko pata hai, fir bhi koi kuch karne ki himmat nahi juta pa raha.

I loved reading Khalid Ahmed’s articles in the Indian Express. One of very few journalists, who wrote fearlessly.
Many in India remember the sight of Congress leader Digvijay Singh embracing Dr. Zakir Naik on stage and hailing him as apostle of peace.
Zakir Naik fooled every one, including muslims through his blatent and poisonous lies for a long time.
The side effect of that is now islam is exposed and it is out in the open.
Digvijay Singh has always been a cunning fox
Who would sell his country for politics
Thank God he isn't as relevant as he was 10 years ago
Elaborate pls
Many also remember same diggy raja also launching book named 26/11 RSS ki saajis just few days after 2008 mumbai attack.
