Shia Muslims in the Indian city of Lucknow held protests denouncing the takfirist rulings of the Wahhabi extremist Zakir Naik.

The community members on Saturday came out and raised slogans against Naik and others. The members carried banners which had pictures of ISIS founder Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Jammat-ud-Dawah terrorists chief Hafiz Saeed along with that of Zakir Naik. “Protest march against terrorism,” read the banner.

Naik’s name popped up after it was discovered that two of the Dhaka attackers were his fans and used to follow him on social media. In past, others involved in terrorist activities, like recently busted Hyderabad ISIS module’s chief, have found to be followers of Naik.
