Muslim women artists in Ayodhya are building bonds of harmony by making garlands of flowers which are offered to Lord Hanuman in Siddha Peeth Hanuman Garhi temple.

In Mohalla Koti Ghat Hindus and Muslims of Ayodhya live together in harmony said the woman making garlands of flowers.

“Muslim women in Ayodhya make garlands of flowers. These garlands are offered to Shri Hanuman Ji Maharaj Ji sitting in Siddha Peeth Hanuman Garhi temple. Ayodhya was identified with Lord Ram and was known by the name of Ram Janmabhoomi Temple and Babri Masjid. But even today Hindus and Muslims of Ayodhya live together in harmony,” Husna Bano said.

Another woman who makes garlands said, all family members in every house are engaged in making garlands.

“Koti Ghat, a locality in Ayodhya is also like this. There are about 12 houses where Muslim women make garlands offering to God, which falls just behind Ram Janmabhoomi. Garlands are made in every house and all the family members are engaged in weaving and making the garlands,” Sakina Bano said.

Meanwhile, weaving and making of garlands is done for generations, and all the family members are engaged in doing this work, women living right behind Ram Janmabhoomi temple said.

Moreover, in Hindus and Muslims, there is no discrimination in making garlands.

“The gardener gives us flowers and we make garlands out of it. We make a living out of this. There is no discrimination of any kind between us Hindus and Muslims who make garlands, it is offered to Hanumanji,” Shahida Bano said.
