Hina Khan Expresses Heartbreak Over Pahalgam Terror Attack: 'I Want Justice as an Indian and as a Muslim'

Hina Khan, a well-known face of Indian television, recently took to her Instagram to share an emotional and powerful message following the Pahalgam terror attack. Her words echoed not just sorrow but also unity, humanity, and the urgent need to stand together as Indians in these testing times.

The actress began her heartfelt note by strongly condemning the inhuman act. She wrote that those responsible for such violence may belong to any religion, but to her, they are not human. In a rare and honest admission, Hina, who belongs to the Muslim community, said she feels deeply embarrassed by the actions of a few who misuse the name of Islam. She appealed to all Indians not to alienate the entire community because of a few wrongdoers. “If we start fighting amongst ourselves, we’re doing exactly what they want – to divide us,” she said.

Hina urged her fans and followers to remember that India belongs to everyone – Hindus, Muslims, and all others – and the real strength lies in standing united. She expressed full support to the nation and the security forces, adding that every religion is equal and respected in India. “I will stand by my country’s decision to avenge this, without any excuses,” she affirmed.

In another part of her message, she shared her emotions about Kashmir. Calling herself a Kashmiri Indian, Hina said she sees hope in the eyes of the new generation of Kashmiris. She appreciated the recent rise of patriotism in the Valley, with many people hoisting the Indian flag and chanting slogans of love for the country. She also made a heartfelt appeal to bring back the displaced Kashmiri Pandit community, requesting her fellow Kashmiris to welcome them with open arms.

Finally, Hina’s post ended on a note of justice and unity. “I want justice as an Indian, as a Muslim, and as a human being,” she wrote. Urging people to reject hate, and division, she reminded everyone that before anything else, we are Indians.
