Okinawa Fitness Gym Islamic conversion racket

Sakal Hindu Samaj highlighted (Tweet archived here) the ordeal of a Hindu girl after she was convinced by her Muslim female ‘friend’ to join Okinawa Fitness. As per information obtained from ground activists of Sakal Hindu Samaj, Shifa Sheikh persuaded the Hindu girl to join the gym. Gym trainer Jamil Khan befriended the girl. Besides giving her gym training, he also taught her martial arts. It has been reliably learnt that during one such training session, Khan took the girl to the changing room and molested her. The victim’s ordeal did not end here. She was reportedly pressured to convert and embrace Islam.

What transpired at Okinawa Fitness is neither an isolated case nor something novel. This is the standard modus operandi of the love jihad and Islamic conversion mafia. The role of the female ‘friend’ Sheikh cannot and should not be overlooked. This case is yet another proof that the movie The Kerala Story was right on the money and correctly depicted how the Islamic conversion mafia operates. This is not likely to be an isolated case and while Sakal Hindu Samaj has called for the revocation of Okinawa Fitness gym’s license, there is an urgent need for the police to thoroughly interrogate both Sheikh and Khan to bring to light other such instances of forced conversion at the gym.

Other instances of love jihad in gyms

The case of Okinawa Fitness is not an isolated one and several such instances have been reported from gyms across Bharat. Some of them are listed below.

In June 2023, a case of cheating and abuse of a married Hindu woman by her gym trainer Kauser Ali Shabbir Ali Kubbawala was reported from Gujarat’s Surat. Ali was accusing of cheating, rape and unnatural sex. Pretending to be unmarried, Kauser Ali gradually trapped the victim in his love trap. He convinced her to divorce her husband and get into a live-in relationship with him.

In February 2023, gym owner Momeen became friendly with a Hindu girl using the Hindu name “Anshu.” Somehow, after getting close to her, he managed to click some obscene photographs of her and used them to blackmail the victim later. The incident was reported from Madhya Pradesh’s (MP) Bhopal.

In December 2022, Intezaar Khan lured a Hindu girl while pretending to be Sonu. He also gave the woman a job as a manager in his gym. Following this, he raped her on the pretext of marriage. The accused runs ASR gym in the Shahberi area in Greater Noida.

In 2021, gym trainer Mustafa was booked under MP’s Freedom of Religion Act for hiding his Islamic religious identity from his Hindu wife before marriage. The pregnant woman found out his real identity when he produced his identity card at a maternity hospital where they had gone for her check up.

From salons to gyms, the love jihad and Islamic conversion racket is widespread and Hindu Samaj needs to act swiftly to force the state machinery to put a stop to these activities. Also, the perpetrators like Khan and their enablers like Sheikh must be given the strictest of punishments so that it acts as a deterrent.
