On the other hand, Muslims all around the world are very unhappy about the fact that UAE allowed Hindus to open a temple when Hindus in India are openly threatening to attack Kaaba and begging for votes if the Hindus want to destroy Muslims.

But the Government of UAE is stating this act has an act of religious freedom.

It is not an accident that UAE permitted first Hindu temple on its soil. Under the wise leadership of Prince Mohammed bin Zayed, UAE has responded to a very old need of its large local Hindu population; but his friendship with PM Modi played its part in this unprecedented gesture pic.twitter.com/CKEKTe7Iby

When Muslims in India are being brutally beaten and forced to convert to Hinduism, this is the fact that Muslims all around the world are not taking this gesture as a good one.

What's going on in UAE its really disappointing to us, in India hindus killing our innocent Muslim and damaging our Mosques but in UAE going to build new hindu temple. UAE should think Muslim way #BlackMarkInUAE those people are very dangerous

Meanwhile, some people are also comparing how UAE has been very casual about serious issues.

Why is the UAE openly embracing Islamophobes?

Last month, it was Israeli minister Miri Regev, who compared the Muslim call to prayer to the sound of "crying dogs".

Yesterday, it was Sri Sri Ravi Shankar – who wants to build a Hindu temple on the rubble of the Babri Mosque.

And most of the people even said that it is against the teachings of Prophet Muhammad PBUH to allocate the land for idol worshipping when all his life Prophet Muhammad PBUH tried to bring Islam to the Arabian Peninsula.

And some people even tweeted this famous Hadith.
