During the research for our film, The Judge, we could see a pattern in these ‘Love Jihad’ cases. Based on that, these cases could be broadly classified into nine categories.
1) The Hindu female and the Muslim male are in love. They want to marry. The girl wants to remain Hindu after the wedding. The boy agrees. After marriage and especially after the child/children are born, the boy’s family starts pressurising the girl to convert, with dire consequences for the girl when she refuses.
2) The Muslim boy pretends to be a Hindu. Even goes to temples and does pooja. So the innocent Hindu girl marries him. After marriage, she discovers that he is a Muslim and then she is forced by the boy’s family to convert.
3) The Muslim boy promises the Hindu girl that he is a true Muslim and that he won’t have sex with her until the marriage. The girl thinks very highly of him because of his principle and consequently marries him. A few years later he starts marrying more women as his religion allows polygamy. This happens more in semi-urban and rural areas.
4) The Hindu girl who is ignorant of her Hindu roots and philosophy is targeted and is approached by the Muslim boy. As she isn’t aware of her own religion, she is slowly made to question it. She loses faith in it, giving the boy the full opportunity to take advantage of her. After she starts living with him, she realises her mistake. A lot of such cases have been happening in Kerala and also in other urban areas of the country.
5) The girl marries the boy voluntarily because both are in love with each other. Both are supposedly modern liberal progressives. After the wedding, boy starts to have doubts on the girl’s fidelity as she continues to be ‘liberal progressive’ even after the marriage. So he attacks her, in most cases killing her.
6) Hindu woman has relationship with Muslim man that doesn’t end up in marriage. There could be many reasons for this. She could already be married and hence feels guilty about cheating her husband. Or, after the initial excitement she could realise that she had made a mistake. Or in some cases where the women are middle aged, they come to know that the same man is also having an affair or targeting one of her younger female relatives (which could even be her own daughter). This could make them end their relationship. Angry over this, he attacks the woman and sometimes even her whole family.
7) Hindu women are raped and/or murdered, usually in the most gruesome way. In some cases photos or videos are taken of girls in compromising situations, and they are blackmailed to do more sexual favours. A lot of cases in rural and semi-urban areas including those that involve Dalits belong to this category.
Hindu woman marries Muslim man. They both follow their own respective religions even after the marriage, and there is no interference by the man or his family. But their offsprings are definitely brought up as Muslims, with a touch of secular ‘respect’ for Hindu gods. Bollywood is full of such cases.
9) In this category, the girl is always a minor.She is seduced and made to madly fall in love with the boy. The girl’s family won’t permit their marriage. So she is kidnapped (with her consent!). Converted to Islam. And then married to the boy as it is legal under Muslim law even when she is under 18.
In many of these categories, the Muslim male tends to be already married with one or more wives and with children before he targets the Hindu girl and marries her. The Hindu girl is completely unaware about this fact.
All these categories of ‘Love Jihad’ may seem disconnected at the outset, even quite extraordinary, because in many instances the kafir girls themselves participate in it willingly. But under all this, there is an underlying concept that is rooted in the Islamist ideology. And that is the need to expand the Ummah and the concept that kafir women are basically slaves and need to be treated so. Hence they are totally dispensable.
When these are the ideas that are taught in madrassas and even in supposedly ‘modern progressive’ families as a part of the religion, then it is no wonder that boys when they grow up, end up as foot soldiers of ‘Love Jihad’.
It is a system approved and sanctioned by the highest authorities of their religion: Collect as many kafir wombs as possible. Increase the Ummah and simultaneously decrease the population of kafirs. And if things don’t go as per the plan then kill or injure the woman as she is just a kafir, a slave, in status. Hence, such violence.
My film, The Judge, is an attempt to depict the typical liberal reaction of Hindus to this issue.
