New Delhi: Columnist and author Tarek Fatah on Friday stirred a hornet's nest with his remarks on Prophet Muhammad and cow slaughter.
Tarek – in a tweet that ruffled a few feathers on Twitter – wrote that Prophet Muhammad was against cow slaughter and had specifically told his followers about it.
“Prophet Muhamad never ate beef. He specifically told Muslims NOT to slaughter cows. He said only drink the cows milk,” Fatah tweeted.

Known for putting forth his bold take on Islam, Fatah made this remark when a fellow Twitterati pressed him for his opinion on cow slaughter.
