Kareena Kapoor Sent Legal Notice for Wearing 200-Year-Old Pendant Bearing Quran Verses, Asked to Apologise
Congress leader Abbas Hafeez sent a legal notice and sought an apology, saying the 200-year-old pendant bears verses from the Quran.
- On Tuesday, Bollywood actor Kareena Kapoor Khan received a legal notice from Congress leader Abbas Hafeez over wearing a 30-carat emerald pendant bearing Ayat-ul-Kursi during a Diwali party.
- The pendant, reportedly around 200 years old, is an heirloom of the Bhopal Princely State, tracing its lineage through Kareena's husband, Saif Ali Khan, whose family includes the last ruling Nawab of Bhopal, Hamidullah Khan.
- Hafeez objects to presenting the sacred inscription as a fashion accessory, arguing the display lacked the reverence due to a Quranic verse; the notice demands a public apology and removal of related social media posts.
- Celebrity stylist Rhea originally shared the photographs on Instagram, describing the emerald as a family heirloom that triggered concerns among community members regarding its religious sanctity.
- Islamic scholars have expressed reservations about wearing Quranic verses as jewelry, emphasizing the need for sanctity; Hafeez clarified his notice was issued in an individual capacity rather than on behalf of his party.
