There is another reason why it was an issue..I posted this on another thread:
\Some Muslims (liken, in the gulf )are touchy about such issues..Not all of them. My friends landlord who was an Arab wouldn't let them put diyas on diwali so its understandable.
In Saudi, you cannot even hold a religios meeting inside your home..and show stuff that is associated with other religion publicly.. a hindu temple or a Church in Oman cannot look like one from outside.. Only inside..
The Mughals were modern in their thinking and celebrated hindu festivals because akbar had many hindu wives but it was behind closed doors.. there were conservatives in his court who did not approve of Akbar doing so
There was a reason why Jalal specifically told her that : wo kissi ki takleef ka sabab nahi banna chahiye
and this was a time where religion reigned supreme all over the world. The Queen of England burning people just for being catholics
