It conveys the message of one God, and so do the Upanishads. "The word 'Muslim' means surrender to the will of God, and if a person wants to get rid of evils like greed and sorrow, he should surrender himself to God," he added.
The sessions highlighted the role of Jamia Islamia in promoting Bhatkal as an educational hub and creating ambassadors of peace.
Shivanand Naik, former BJP MLA said, "The magnanimous crowd is proof of Jamia's popularity and people's love for an institution which has served them for 50 years now". Karnataka education minister Vishwanath Hegde Kageri also shared similar thoughts.
