Former Kerala minister K.T. Jaleel has mocked Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and the Muslim League in a Facebook post, questioning the CM's authority to declare Islamic views incorrect. Jaleel challenged the Chief Minister's scholarship on Islam, asking whether he has the expertise to refute the religious opinions of prominent cleric Kanthapuram A.P. Aboobacker Musliyar. He also demanded that League scholars clarify their stance on the matter. The former minister sarcastically warned the Muslim League against appointing the Chief Minister as a "Qazi" (Islamic judge), referencing the CM's recent statements on Sunni sect practices and his support for devotees in the Sabarimala women's entry issue.
