\"'Our Salman Khan<\/a>‘s family is often seen celebrating most Hindu festivals. For instance, Ganesh Chaturthi<\/a> was recently celebrated in full swing at their household. His father, veteran screenwriter Salim Khan<\/a> got married to Sushila Charak who is a Hindu. But much before that, he was accustomed to the Hindu traditions. However, in a recent interview, he’s made some revelations about not eating beef, as mentioned in the teachings of Prophet Mohammed. Salim Khan revealed that despite being Muslims, his family does not eat beef. He explained in a chat with the Free Press Journal, “From Indore until today, we have never had beef. Beef is eaten by most Muslims as it is the cheapest meat! Some even buy it to feed pet dogs. But in the teachings of prophet Mohammed, he has clearly stated that a cow\u2019s milk is a substitute for mother\u2019s milk and it is a mufid (beneficial) cheez. He has stated that cows should not be killed and beef is forbidden.”<\/p>\n

He further added, \u201cProphet Mohammed has adopted good things from every religion. Like eating only halaal meat which was adopted from the Jews, who call it kosher. He has postulated that every religion is good and believes in a Supreme Power like we do.”<\/p>\n

Do you believe that traditions from different religions can coexist peacefully?<\/p>\n

The veteran reminisced about how seamlessly Hindu traditions were woven into his childhood, long before his marriage to Sushila Charak (now Salma Khan<\/a>). He said, \u201cYou see, I have lived all my life amidst Hindus. Even in the police stations and colonies, we celebrated Hindu festivals as everyone from a sipahi to the head constable was a Hindu. So it was not as if we began keeping Ganpati at home only after my marriage. My family had no objection to my marriage either.”On the other hand, Salma\u2019s family initially showed some hesitation, though her father soon came to respect Salim\u2019s values and background. \u201cMy father-in-law, a dentist, was from the Dogra community. He had investigated my background when the matter of my wedding came about and respected the fact that I came from a good family and was well-educated. He candidly told me that my religion was his only objection. I assured him that even if we had disagreements or fights, my wife and I would certainly not have them because of our religions! We have been wedded now for 60 years!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Salman Khan‘s family is often seen celebrating most Hindu festivals.
