Question

It is reported that Darul Uloom Deoband has agreed to accept yoga as an exercise. Is yoga permissible? Please comment.

Answer

Darul Uloom Deoband has been reduced to a skeleton. It is no longer the great and wonderful Institution of our Akaabir Ulama. The Janaazah of Ilm has departed from that August Institution of Ilm. Now remain in charge Hindu bootlickers. They are licking the boots of the Hindus as a consequence of lack of Taqwa. Their gaze is on the imaginary 'power' of the cow-worshippers and drinkers of cow urine. Their focus is no longer on Allah Ta'ala. The Ilm of the Deen is no longer being imparted for the objectives of the Aakhirat. That is why they are accepting the Hindu practice of yoga. It is simply another display of bootlicking. Yoga is haraam.
