Veteran writer urged both the communities to spread love and happiness instead of discussing the Ayodhya case verdict.

Legendary writer Salim Khan welcomed the Supreme Court's historic verdict on Ayodhya Ram temple case. Salim Khan is father to three Bollywood stars Salman, Sohail and Arbaaz. In an interview with a leading media agency, Salim Khan urged the Muslim community to build a school or a hospital on the vacate land. He also believes that prayers can be offered anywhere and there is no need to build a mosque.

Salim Khan spread the message of love and peace between two communities and said, "So now after 'The-End' of this story (Ayodhya dispute), Muslims should adhere to these two virtues and march forward. Mohabbat zahir kariye aur maaf kariye (show love and forgive). Do not rewind, recap such issues now...just move ahead from here."

Talking about the way both communities have handled the situation post verdict, he said, "The manner in which peace and harmony is being maintained, after the announcement of such a sensitive verdict, is commendable. Let's accept...a very old dispute has been settled. From core of my heart, I welcome the decision."

"Muslims should not discuss this (Ayodhya dispute). Instead, they should discuss their basic problems and try to find out solutions. The reason why I am saying that is we need schools and hospitals... why I am suggesting that is it would be better if we build a college at the alternative 5-acre land, to be provided in Ayodhya for building a mosque. Humein masjid ki zaroorat nahi. Namaz to hum kahin bhi padh lenge...train me, plane me, zameen par, kahin bhi padh lenge (we can offer namaz anywhere, in train, plane or on the floor). But we need better schools. Talim achhi milegi 22 crore musalmano ko, toh is desh kee bahut si kamiyan khatam ho jayengi (if 22 crore Muslims get good education, then many problems of this counrty would be solved)" he added.
