Ayodhya: The RSS has said it would translate the 'Vande Mataram' into Urdu for distribution among Muslims. "We will get the Vande Matram translated into Urdu and it will be distributed among the members of Muslim community," former RSS chief KC Sudarshan told a meeting of senior Sangh functionaries here yesterday.

According to the Holy Quran, God has sent 1,24,000 prophets, he claimed and said "Rama and Krishna may be among them. If Muslims accept them as messengers of God, then the differences will be wiped off".

Stating that Ayodhya is a holy place for both Hindus and Muslims, the RSS leader said, "It is the birth place of Hazrat Nuh (one of the messengers of God according to Quran). Manu and Ram were also born here."

The Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind had on Tuesday asked members of the community not to recite Vande Mataram on the ground that some verses of the National Song are against the tenets of Islam.
