In a first-of-its-kind moment in world history, Assam’s Muslim community has gifted the Holy Quran to Garima Saikia, wife of the late music icon Zubeen Garg. This touching gesture goes beyond tradition and religious barriers, symbolizing harmony, respect, and shared humanity.
Zubeen Garg, lovingly known as the “people’s artist,” was more than just a celebrated singer and composer. Throughout his life, he dreamed of an Assam where religion, caste, and language would never divide people. His music and humanitarian work reflected this vision of inclusivity and brotherhood.
Even after his passing, Zubeen’s ideals continue to resonate. The gift of the Holy Quran to his family is seen as a reflection of his dream of an Assam united beyond barriers of faith.
### The Symbolism of the Quran Gift
The presentation of the Quran holds profound meaning. It is not just a sacred book being shared, but a symbol of love and respect, bridging communities. For Zubeen Garg’s admirers, this moment shows how his legacy continues to inspire collective harmony, transcending religious differences.
### Zubeen Garg’s Greatness Lives On
Known globally for his soulful voice and patriotic spirit, Zubeen lived a life dedicated to service — service to music, to his country, and to humanity. He never defined people by religion or language but always embraced diversity. His greatness lies in the fact that, even in death, he continues to bring communities together.
### A Legacy That Inspires Generations
This historic gesture by Assam’s Muslim community is being hailed as a landmark act of interfaith unity. It reinforces the values Zubeen stood for and ensures that his message of peace, inclusivity, and togetherness will inspire generations to come.
