HAVERI: Muslims in Chikka Kabbar in Haveri district pray in Kannada at the Hazrat Mehabob Subani Darga.Usually Muslims across world and India pray in Arabic language, but here it’s interesting to see them pray in kannada and this is happening for about 150 years .

Most of the 400 Muslim families don’t know Urdu and Arabic, so the maulvi addresses the community in Kannada five times a day. The Muslims are proud of the local language and live in harmony with other communities in the village.

The mosque has display boards outside and inside that are in the Kannada language.

Haveri is home district of Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai
