(L-R: Maulana Wahiduddin Khan, Maulana Kalbe Sadiq & Ali Manikfan)
The Union Government has announced a list of 119 personalities who will be
conferred the Padma Awards by President Ram Nath Kovind this year.
These awards cater to various disciplines including art, social work, public
affairs, science and engineering, trade and industry, medicine, literature and
education, sports and civil service. While ‘Padma Shri’ is awarded for
distinguished service in any field, ‘Padma Bhushan’ is awarded for distinguished
service of high order. ‘Padma Vibhushan’ is awarded for exceptional and
distinguished service.
The list includes two renowned Islamic scholars; Maulana Wahiduddin Khan and
late Maulana Kalbe Sadiq. Padma Vibhushan, the second-highest civilian award
will be presented to Maulana Wahiduddin Khan, while Maulana Kalbe Sadiq will get
Padma Bhushan, the third-highest civilian award.
Maulana Wahiduddin Khan (96) is a renowned Islamic scholar from Uttar Pradesh’s
Azamgarh, who propagates his teachings and ideas through writing. He has written
a commentary on the Holy Qur’an called Tazkirul Quran He also runs a monthly
magazine called Al Risala which has a wide readership. He has also been
conferred with several awards including Demiurgus Peace International Award, the
Padma Bhushan (2000), National Citizens’ Award, Rajiv Gandhi Sadbhavna Award
(2009) and others.
Maulana Kalbe Sadiq, who passed away in November last year was a prominent Shia
scholar and Vice President of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board.
He was considered as a great ambassador of Shia-Sunni unity and devoted his life
for this cause.
However, both Maulana Wahiduddin Khan and Maulana Kalbe Sadiq showed a neutral
stance on the construction of the Ram Temple on the remains of Babri Masjid.
They urged Muslims to give away their claim on Babri Masjid.
The awardees include, polymath Ali Manikfan, who has been awarded with the Padma
Shri for his contribution in grassroots level innovations at Lakshwadeep. Born
into an aristocratic family in 1938 in the Minicoy Island of Lakshwadeep,
Manikfan is as marine researcher, ecologist, shipbuilder, agriculturist, and a
polyglot.
