quoted in Hindu: Bareilly: An Islamic seminary has issued a fatwa against Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan for allegedly making comments against Islam even as Muslim religious leaders distanced themselves from the decree, calling it “unnecessary” as the actor had offered his clarification.
“A person making a remark like the one attributed to Shahrukh is a kafir (non-believer) and is struck out of Islam,” said the fatwa issued by Mufti Mohammed Shoeb Raza Qadri and Mufti Muti-ur-Rehman of the Darul-uloom-Mazhar-e- Islam. Such a person must offer an immediate apology to return to Islam, the fatwa said.
Shahrukh Khan has strongly denied the comments attributed to him in an interview published in a magazine, saying he had been misquoted.

Thats one thing to like or dislike SRK as a celebrity or actor. But its another not to appreciate his spotless behaviour both at personal and professional fronts. He come across as a very responsible and intelligent man. I am no Fan of his movies or acting but i have to accept the elegant way carried his stardom so far. So after hearing the news i bought the magazine to read the controversial interview of his. I didnt find anything controversial in what he said in the interview. I dont know why people still believe on everything they hear or read without checking on the facts. Its so silly..!! The people who issued the FATWA against him is bunch of insecure guys who are trying to make a "Iraq" in india. For all u readers i am pasting below the exact contents of what he said in the magazine.
"July issue of the Time and Style magazine" Question : The most impressive figure in history, according to you?
There are lots of them, some negative ones like Hitler. On the other hand there are nice ones like Napoleon, Winston Churchill and if I can call it history, then Prophet Mohammed and from recent times - Nelson Mandela. And also Gandhiji and Mother Teresa who are equally impressive.
People are just plain jealous of SRK that is it. He has become a star from the most modest of roots so this sticks out to the bolly families a lot...Go SRK Go More power to you...
